I was fortunate enough to be introduced to these guys in 1995. They have been repairing my car (and…read moremy friends) ever since. Strengths: Incredible customer service. They are genuinely not happy until you are. Clear explainations of problems, careful tracking of your vehicle history, friendly and skilled staff, willingness to refer you if someone else could do a job cheaper/faster/better. They are particulary good at recommending the cheapest effective options. Once the solution was to hit a part with a wrench; it worked, and they charged me nothing. On a couple of occasions where repairs were not spot-on, they fixed the problem without hesitation. Case in point: I had a starter that chronically failed over a few years. I only paid for it once, but they replaced it and found the root cause of the problem. You owe it to yourself to check them out.

If you're looking for a friendly and honest neighborhood mechanic - you've found him! I was…read morereferred to Marty through the mechanic at a previous job, and I haven't looked back since. Marty is professional, and his front desk service techs are always willing to answer questions, accommodate service requests and always do their best to get me into one of their free loaner vehicles while my car is in the shop! I first started going to Bettcher's when I was relatively new to the city - as a woman (who knows little about cars), it's pretty easy to be taken for a ride when it comes to auto service (no pun intended!). I was glad to have had a solid referral, and have always been able to address any price/service issues directly with Marty...needless to say my car runs like a dream! While you're in the shop, don't forget to pick up a Bettcher's bottle of water - he really does go the extra mile!

My vehicle stayed in their shop for 4 days, and after the inspection they told me that my driver-side lower control arm was broken and that the thermostat needed replacement. They charged me $3,600, but never provided any proof, photos, or explanation showing that the arm was actually broken. They also refused to give me the parts invoice, never showed the cost of the parts they used, and provided no breakdown at all. They charged me $2,200 just for labor, yet this job normally takes around 3 hours, not multiple days. When I asked for labor rate, time, or details, they didn't provide anything. The whole process felt unprofessional, unclear, and extremely overpriced. The worst part is that after I picked up my car, it had even bigger problems than before. The vehicle started having new issues immediately, and now I have to take it to another certified Mercedes mechanic to fix whatever was done to it. I honestly have no idea what they did to my car, but the quality of work seems extremely poor. I am very disappointed and strongly warn anyone with a high-end vehicle: do not trust this shop with your car. They provided no transparency, no proof, no proper documentation, overcharged for labor, and returned my car in worse condition than it arrived.

The manual said I should get transmission fluid, brake fluid changed, a tune-up, etc. Revolution Motors was recommended to me. The receptionist was efficient, explained the process and told me that when they finished the inspection of the car they would call and let me know the cost, and get approval for the work. They gave me a car to use while mine was in the shop. Long-story short my Forester is in great shape, and they told me that I didn't need to do the scheduled maintenance because everything was great (it is a very low mileage vehicle). Only charged me for the oil change - and gave me a great price. They have definitely won a customer for the future. So glad that the folks on Reddit suggested them. I'll be back as needed.

I also paid extra to have…read morea peace of mind inspection done as she was going to be taking it to Banff for the first time. The very next day she drove it as far as Red Deer before the check engine light came on again:/ She stopped at a nearby shop and got them to read the code. Catalytic converter failed again. I contacted KD, the owner of Icon, who said it was still fine for her to take to Banff and to bring it in when she got back. It drove like shit for her all weekend, absolutely no peace of mind!! So yesterday they had it back there and discovered the head gasket was leaking!! A quick google search tells me that a very common reason for a catalytic converter to fail in the first place is typically caused by a separate issue and a gasket leak is a likely cause:/ considering the new converter went within an hour of driving it again it's safe to assume the leak was already there. So now her $5000 car needs a $3000 repair (gasket) plus a new catalytic converter for $1100. I'm not willing to pay for that big repair and had my mechanic done his due diligence to find the root cause of the failed converter I wouldnt be out the $1300 for the original useless catalytic converter replacement and inspection!! They have refused to give me a refund and are not admitting to any wrong doing sending my daughter off on her first road trip in an unsafe vehicle!! Dont bring your vehicles here. Find a thorough, reliable, TRUSTWORTHY mechanic instead.

I went in with my 13 month old and it's in an industrial area - so no malls in walking distance to kill time unfortunately. He asked his wife, who also works there to drive us in our car (car seat) to the new outlet mall to pass the time. And then she picked us back up when the inspection was complete. She was so nice! I really appreciated this gesture. That's going above and beyond for the customer. Our car was in perfect condition, which we expected because it's only 2 years old. That wouldn't stop some mechanics from trying to find something small wrong though. He was honest. I wouldn't hesitate to use these guys for automotive repair (if my car needed it, lol). Felt like I was chatting to friends! Definitely recommend!
