Roof of my car - grease, dirt & pen?

Pretty bummed about my experience yesterday at this location and could not be paid to return. I have only taken my car to the dealership for all services, except for my last oil change I took it here. I only chose to go again yesterday as I was recently laid off and wanted to save a little money. I should have gone to the dealership instead. The wait wasn't bad at all. However, the gentleman that was up front mentioned "I told you last time you'd need your cabin air filter replaced and you do." He rattled off a few other things needed totaling over $300. But last time, he wasn't the gentleman that helped me at all, and, the gentleman that did - didn't mention anything about filters. Which I'm not surprised since I had changed them in February. I told him I was not able to do the $300+ in services as I was recently laid off and only budgeted for an oil change but took note of what he'd mentioned. Compassion is not as common these days, as he didn't say a thing and just walked out to the shop to let them know I guess. I paid and got into my car and put the paperwork in the glovebox. ALL of my glove box contents were on top of my sunglasses, rather than it being how I'd left it. So everything must've dumped out and then just thrown back in without much care - that added to some irritation I felt, but whatever. To my surprise, I couldn't shut it. I messed with it for a bit and then a different gentleman was at my window asking if everything was okay. I told him no and asked if he could help with the glove box. He also couldn't get it to shut without being forceful and called someone else over to help. Between the two of them, they figured it out enough to where it shut with some resistance, but still shut. I left and noticed my car still had that heavy/chugging along feeling when accelerating when it needs the oil changed. I noticed this before back in March, but gaslit myself into thinking I was "feeling" things. However, my car does not feel like it is running smoothly after the oil change like I'd always noticed it would before. Getting back into my car today, I noticed a pen mark on my center console, grease/dirt above my passenger visor, the roof of the interior right before my moon roof, and along the side of my window on the upholstery. I am PISSED. I now get to figure out how to get these stains out of my cars upholstery without paying someone else to detail it (laid off, remember?), my car doesn't feel any better, and I have a janky glovebox. Needless to say, I absolutely will not be returning and feel like I should've listened when others told me not to go outside of a dealership for services. It feels like a waste of money, my interior now has 4 sizable stains that I did not make in these last 24 hours, and my glove box shuts with some serious resistance.

This is what I found a week after my Brake Masters, passenger side loose tie Rod, it was way out of alignment when corrected.

Update, last two visits had issues.... I found the New AC caps I had just installed were gone from my Cherokee after Brake Masters checked it for me. It was only $5 or $6, but had to go to the store again..... The big issue - I took my new Tacoma in after having installed a lift kit..... they aligned it but due to the geometry of the lift kit, it would not get into spec for the camber, not Brake Masters fault at all.... It drove OK but seemed to be getting worse daily and pulling left then right... The following Saturday I installed some ARB upper control arms specifically to bring it into spec on the Camber, and I happened to notice that the Tie Rod End was not tightened from the previous weekend by Brake Masters.. I had planned to just drive it for a week without a new alignment but this created an issue that had to be immediately addressed so I called Brake Masters and explained what was going on and they told me they couldn't get me in..... I ended up having to go somewhere else, the only availability I could find was Pep Boys, so that's where I went, they did OK and found that the toe was way out and they confirmed Tie Rod had been backing out, good thing I found it, could have caused an accident..... Anyway, that's my last 2 visits....

Classic crooks. Came in with a $69 coupon for a simple alignment but of course they find some trash excuse to try and sell me more. "Your tires don't have enough tread to do an alignment". Ok buddy, go sell your garbage somewhere else. I knew this was going to be a problem when the greasy guy behind the counter was chatting up some pre-teen girl when I dropped the car off.

I cannot say enough great things about Crawford's Auto Repair!…read moreI brought my truck in thinking I had a suspension issue because of a squeaky noise that had been getting worse. They got me in quickly, were incredibly friendly from the moment I walked in, and took the time to thoroughly check everything out. It turned out to be something as simple as a loose spare tire, something that could have easily been misdiagnosed elsewhere. What really stood out to me is that they fixed the issue right then and there and didn't charge me anything. That level of honesty and integrity is rare these days. As a woman, it can sometimes feel intimidating trying to find an auto shop you can truly trust. At Crawford's, I felt completely comfortable, respected, and confident that I was being treated fairly, no upselling, no pressure, just genuine help. They've absolutely earned my trust, and I will be coming back for any future car needs. If you're looking for a shop that is honest, knowledgeable, and truly cares about their customers, this is the place to go. Highly, highly recommend!

Was told over the phone today by Ken the Service Manager that they don't match or beat prices,…read morewhich is false advertisement, he said that was something that the marketing folks put on their website but they don't honor it. He said I was the first person in 5 years that had asked for prices to be matched from another nearby mechanic shop. He even said that the prices that they quoted me, that I should go to the other shop instead, was a $60 difference by the way. Was also told by Ken that I wasn't a good customer because I had only done one oil service with them in a year and a half. Will never give Crawford's my business and they're just another auto shop that's dishonest and takes advantage of their customers. Hard to find integrity these days!!

NOTE: this review is from over a month ago…read more Great experience! Took a vehicle here for pre-purchase inspection. Greeted immediately and offered something to drink while I waited. After inspection, was sent a comprehensive evaluation AND was taken through all the points by Brian (Bryan?), and shown/told that car had a coolant leak that was likely going to result in having a $5000+ repair sooner than later. Some of the BEST $ I ever spent! I ALWAYS suggest pre-purchase inspection of ANY used car, irrespective of ANY dealership saying "we thoroughly inspect all of our vehicles."

This has to be the most incompetent, unprofessional mechanic shop in Arizona. I brought my car in…read morefor a simple front engine mound, front struts and asked if they can check the oil level because I just had my oil changed last month and it's saying the level is low. This should've been a one day job after they got the parts but they had my car from 6/22 - 7/1 due to their complete incompetence. The day the job should've been done I started sensing they messed something up because I got a text message at 1030 stating the job was done and they were wrapping up. Cool, I'll be expecting a call in an hour or so. 1:40 comes around, no phone call so I call them. Give me some BS about they need the alignment and they only have one lift and they've been booked all day. Call back at 4:40, they tell me they are waiting for someone to test drive it. Call back at 5:40, close to closing and I'm told it's ready. Come in as I'm paying, over $2k mind you, Bryan asks if I'm aware of the light that's on. I tell him no because no one has called me about anything. I assume he meant the low oil level light that was on and it was no big deal. Walk out to my car and my check engine, engine malfunction, low oil pressure, red oil can and my console screen telling me to pull over immediately is all lit up. I go get Bryan, he comes out and looks. He says it's not a big deal and that it's safe to drive. A mechanic.....is saying it's safe to drive with all those warning lights on. I ask him if it's safe to drive and unbeknownst to him I'm recording this entire conversation on Facebook voice messenger and when he says that the shop will be liable for anything that happens if I drive off I figure okay, I'll drive it home and bring it back in the morning after I work. As I'm leaving trying to turn left on baseline I almost get tboned by a jeep because my car will not accelerate. Take it back, livid, and leave it with them because what choice do I have? Days go by and we have to practically beg them to keep us informed. I can't work without my car and because of them I'm out over $2000 in lost wages. Throughout this they try and tell me it's my fault because I wasn't keeping up on oil changes and that's causing issues. I have receipts for every oil change I've gotten and the miles put on the car between them, don't tell me I'm not keeping up on my oil changes. After a week and clearly everyone and their mother that works at this joke of a shop they found the problem: the incompetent moron who worked on my car connected the wire harness wrong and it was causing my car to go into limp mode and light up everything on my dash. Over a week it took them to figure this one out. They probably could've opened up ChatGPT, put the issues in and gotten a result faster. I'm not a mechanic but I feel like if a car was working fine when it was brought in and after we worked on it it was quite literally undriveable I would triple check every. Single. Thing. I did to said car. I would keep the customer informed multiple times a day on what was going on instead of making them feel like they were completely forgotten about. Clearly these guys didn't care enough to do so. Don't EVER take your car here, they will screw up your car and not even care enough that you are out of work and costing you your livelihood. 10 days my car was in that shop. 10 days, for something that should've taken one and that's being generous, all because of their complete incompetence. Side note: not all Christian brothers are trash, my sister took hers to the one in San Tan Valley and they were amazing. This one is just horrific and they will be getting reported to the BBB and the AG. I am honestly astounded at how awful this place is. Update to their reply: I'm the primary on the account and your shop made next to no attempt to contact us regarding any issues until we gave them attitude about the lack of communication. As regards to the car being repaired safely before it's turned over to me to drive is that why I have your mechanic on audio telling me it was safe to drive with all those lights on?

Oil on the driveway. Ugh…read more Called some friends to get a recommendation for a local shop. One said that Scott from Sunland was the guy. We had the car towed over (2018 Ford Fusion Hybrid), and they diagnosed the problem and repaired the issue quickly and at a fair price. Unfortunately, the tech made a small mistake and once we got the car home, there was more oil on the driveway and a check engine light. Ugh, again. So we called back to Scott to see what he wanted us to do. We understand that sometimes mistakes are made and issues arise. How a business owner handles those issues are the difference between good businesses and great ones. This is a great one. Scott was MUCH more upset than we were! He got us back in same day and fixed the issue at no charge! (We should have paid for a necessary part, but he would not charge us.) With everything so expensive these days, and everyone trying to stretch a buck, it's hard to know if you're leaving your car with someone who cares about it as much as you do. Scott does. I cannot recommend this shop highly enough!

The driver had seen him ticketing someone earlier. This was the third time he saw him in that area. I tend to have a lead foot. Possibly saved from a traffic ticket on the way home as I drove slower than normal on that day. Besides the work being done, I asked if the air filter could be checked. I had went to Take 5 for an oil change a few months earlier. As I sat in my car at Take 5 after the oil was changed, I heard banging and the car was shaking. They didn't have my size air filter in stock and had to force my old one back in the car. Steve at Sunland later said my air filter was the correct size and was very clean. No need for replacement. I was pleasantly surprised. Scott, the owner was very helpful explaining what was needed to fix my car. Fair prices and great service. Sunland Auto Service is my new go to for my auto needs in the future.

Travis educates me, explains what is going on in simple terms, will show me pictures or faulty car parts that he pulled off my vehicle...but more importantly doesn't swindle me. If you're a woman who is used to being taken advantage of at car repair shops look no further! They are honest & will treat you right here! I'm so glad I have a place I can go to that's trustworthy and close by.

I've changed my 1 star review below to a 5 star review due to the excellent customer service…read morereceived from the owner, Mike. Mike sent several apologies and went above and beyond what most business owners would do in a situation such as this. - He refunded me for the missed alignment and the cost of the new tire. To find this kind of honesty is rare and it proves that he operates his business with integrity. Knowing this, I would not hesitate to bring my vehicle directly to Mike in the future if need be. Mistakes happen, and he was quick to correct it. Thank you, Mike! ********************************************************* My husband brought my car over to AZ Automasters in February of 2024. We had never been there before, but I had just had new control arms and ball joints put in and since the tires were also brand new, my mechanic who did that work recommended an alignment. AZ Automasters kept the car overnight and my husband picked it up the following day. My husband stated that he asked the employees if the alignment was off and by how much, and that no one could answer his questions or seemed to "know anything about anything." But he did say that the employees working the morning he picked it up were not the same ones who were working when he dropped it off. He didn't leave feeling super confident but they said the car was done so he left and that was that. This car is kept in a garage, has not been in any accidents, hit any curbs or anything of that nature, and is well loved. I have put 8000 miles on the vehicle since the alignment. The other day we realized that the tires should probably be rotated and were horrified to notice that the outside of the passenger front tire was completely bald, the inside of the tire barely worn. We went over to where we purchased the tires as they are warranteed to 80,000 miles, but because they deemed it an "alignment issue", I had to purchase a brand new tire out of pocket. Not only did I waste $118.00 at AZ Automasters as they did not complete the alignment I paid for, I'm out an additional $145 for a new tire and still need to get the car aligned. I'll certainly be getting alignment, but it won't be at AZ Automasters. *Edit* I just had a front end alignment at a reputable shop where the employees actually care about their customers. They had to take a torch to the tie-rod jam nuts as they were totally locked up on both sides. This would NOT have had to be done had AZ Automasters done the work they were paid to do a year and a half ago. Also, this shop, who did the alignment using lasers, was able to show us via computer what they adjusted and how much, which AZ Automasters could not do for us. And this new place was cheaper! Lesson learned to shop around!
