Lost no money and went with another shop's diagnostic advice...no need to be butt hurt. I also got a kick out of his estimate that he had another 65,000 miles left on his tires. Michelin Defender 2's are about the highest mileage rated tires at 80,000 miles, so...depending upon what he is running and whether they are real or imaginary miles, I am skeptical. Sounds like an ill-natured bad-tempered crank with magic tires to me.

Woods Car Care is the best! Mechanics are very knowledgeable, fast, completely trustworthy and do…read moreexcellent work! We have used Woods for several years for both of our vehicles and have never had a problem. We always take our vehicles to Woods to be checked out before a road trip and we are so glad they're here! They stay very busy because they do quality work for a fair price!

I've brought my car in a few times to this location and they do great work every time. I also love…read morethat they are completely honest with me and don't try to push services that aren't needed or over charge. Each repair I had made was a very fair price and they typically finish within a day or 2 (for the things I needed anyways). This is my new go-to spot for all my car maintenance now.

E. Wood Local Guide·33 reviews…read moreI brought my toyota rav4 in for an oil change and to check brakes for frequent grinding when coming to a stop. I called about 5 hours later to check the status and was told oil change had been completed and waiting to check brakes. A few minutes later I was contacted that my car was ready with no problems found. He explained that there was over 60% of the pads left in the front and 80% on the rear. That would be fantastic news if the brakes didn't grind! They test drove and couldn't duplicate the problem. The problem did continue for me driving home. I appreciate they didn't want to do work that wasn't necessary, but service advisor did not care to listen to what I thought might possibly cause the noise. I explained my car had previously been in an accident and had front suspension parts replaced. I suggested it might possibly be a loose pad or calipers loose or hanging up but he blew it off as a sensor. I didn't get the feeling that my problem was worth looking at beyond checking the pads for thickness and diagnosis fee. I basically was charged 204.00 for an oil change including their 3.5% credit card use included. After using my debit card I noticed the fee so changed and wrote a check for 197.00. Maybe it's me, a little confusing thinking debit card is the same as cash (most places). They did however only refund 197.00 of the 204.00 charged. So we are back to 204.00 for an oil change (to be fair, I got my preferred oil) and to be told my brakes are great. I have had people recommend your shop to me in the past and decided to give your shop a try with my brakes issue, but will never recommend or be back. Enjoy your 7 bucks credit card fee you kept, it will give me enjoyment in telling everyone I can of my experience and waste of time and money using your business. Update: I did reach out to Doug, but after emailing back and forth I am unsure he understands my frustrations of getting my brake problem blown off. It was my understanding I was paying for a true evaluation of what is causing the grinding noise. What I received is a free tire store look at the remaining brake pads. My option is they just don't care to do anything beyond the quick and easy $$, or care to listen to their customers. I never plan to return, trust is gone.

I took my 99 Forester with 220,000 miles in for repair of the EVAC system. The gas tank could only…read morebe filled very slowly. The last time I filled it the pump shut off 16 times while I put in 6 gallons. The EVAC system had never been worked on before so there was a possibility of it needing extensive, expensive repairs. I got a call a few hours later. My car was ready. There was no charge for parts, only one hour of labor cleaning out a clogged line. The mechanic even took it to a gas station and put some gas in it to confirm the repair. Today I filled the tank myself and it filled with no problems. Not only was it repaired but I could have been charged for parts not needed, but that didn't happen. This was a 5-star experience. A good honest mechanic is a great find.

Tara at the front desk is great. Knowledgeable, courteous,…read morehonest. Even stayed about ten minutes past closing (on a Friday) as we had to Uber back to get our car. Latest issue was severe front end noise on a Jeep Compass. Control arms were just about shot. Finished the job same day, and I asked them to look at brakes also, and they said brakes were fine. Somewhat expensive, but in the neighborhood I was expecting. Same vehicle had other problems a year or so ago, and a thorough repair was performed. Advised of some potential down-the-line problems. Hope to never need them again, but I will absolutely use them again if necessary.

Friend and I were driving to breakfast when all of a sudden my dashboard lit up and my car stopped working! We coasted into the nearby restaurant where we were headed thankfully. We got out and did the obvious - look under the hood for fluid leaks, smoke, etc... but nothing for the plain eye to see. I went to Yelp to see if there were any services near that could help and that is when I found this shop. I called A&L, told them what happened and they kept it real with me basically saying they didn't know what it could be either, but they could fit me in that morning to take a look. I decided to have the car towed versus trying to drive it and possibly damage it further. I asked if they knew any tow companies and they gave me info for a local company they do business with (that was also excellent btw!). Once my car arrived at A&L they let me know they were close to finishing up another vehicle and would look into mine after they were done. They have a very small waiting area which is set up nicely with a couch, tv with all entertainment you could want and a vending machine. It really is only big enough for a couple people. When it was my turn, they looked at the car while I chilled in the waiting area de-stressing watching tv. They came back, explained the problem, quoted me a price and let me know they could fix it that same morning while I waited! WOW! They did have to send someone for the part. The pricing also seemed very reasonable. I accepted. (Note I later discussed what happened with my existing local trusted mechanic and he confirmed their pricing was AMAZING as was the fact they were able to help so quickly. As a non-mechanical person there is a lot of trust that goes here). They had my problem diagnosed, resolved and paid for all in a few hours. I was very impressed! My friend even stated this was a blessing as many shops have waiting lists right now for basic items. Summary - USE this shop! Take your car here! They are trustworthy, efficient, affordable and no bs. They do what they say they can do and they are upfront about now being able to diagnose without seeing the vehicle.
