They said to bring it in with no appointment , I was happy and one lucky first time client. They did a diagnostic first and let me know what was the problem then call me to let me know what was wrong and what needed to be done at the same time chk to update my oil change .. it was time for Carlani oil change.. he gave the price how much it was going to cost before they fix the problem. I was happy with the price and happy with the service. Save me gas and time to drive off island for my yearly service. Praise the Lord!

There was one major issue. I told the owner that I was going to be taking my car on a long road…read moretrip and I needed all the safety checks done, tires checked, oil changed etc etc. When I went to pick up the car I specifically asked him about the tires and he said they looked good. Part way on my trip the sidewall of one of the tires gave out. The tire repair shop was flabbergasted to find that my tires were 25 years old. I had absolutely no idea they were that old (I did not put the tires on the car, I bought it second hand). I was relying on Blue Canary to do the paid for safety checks for me. When I returned to Blue Canary and told the owner (manager?) what I had discovered he definitely did not act surprised, dismayed, or even apologetic. He said he doesn't typically check the age of the tires. Something that several tire experts I spoke to said should be one of the first things done! It is extremely fortunate that I did not end up in a serious accident. I definitely would never rely on his assurance that things were taken care of and safe. In addition to the subpar service related to tire safety I also paid a considerable sum of money to have my engine cleaned. It definitely was not cleaned (didn't look like it had been cleaned at all). A rodent deterrent pack had been put inside the hood.... A very EXPENSIVE rodent pack since it appears that was all my expensive "engine cleaning" involved. He did offer to re-clean it when I got back to town and he was willing to do so when I brought it back in. However when I started talking with him about the situation with the tires I got totally disgusted with his attitude and left. I will not be back. And if you are concerned about anything that could be related to safety I would be cautious having it serviced by Bainbridge Blue Canary.

The Manager/Customer Service person was a nasty jerk, and I have never been treated so terribly at a car servicing business! He quoted me $300 for a new battery, then when I went in to pick up the car, he marked it up $80 for no reason! I wasn't about to argue with him about the $80 markup, so I just payed it. They were not to be trusted. Lies, cheating and needlessly marking up prices! I swore never to go back there. 2 weeks ago I was driving by when I saw a crane taking down the original Hockett and Olsen sign and couldn't have been happier! This is what happens to devious unfair businesses and the place went under, cuz of the terrible service and cheating. What goes around comes around. No more nasty, aggressive, cheating manager guy!

"We can refuse service to anyone." Take your car away! I asked if I could make an appointment for tomorrow or next week. He said "Get out!" For years I have taken my business to them. What happened?

Hands down, he's the best mechanic I've ever worked with. His prices were more than fair, too. This young man makes thirty veteran mechanics look like Goober Pyle from Mayberry. All I can say is, "Goooooolllllleeee!" Give this hardworking guy a try. You will not regret it. He will come to Vashon. his name is Mick Svoboda of Defiance Auto (253) 999-8531 Defianceautoworks.com
