    This is my first time visiting GETZ. This is about to be a real unbiased review!!! New to this…read morearea location so finding a good repair shop is always a challenge. I've got a Tahoe truck that I've had for 18yrs. I think I know it pretty well inside and out and its fairly easy to work on for a novice DIY guy like myself. For the first time I got a code I'd never seen P1810 for a transmission pressure plate switch. I did some research, after driving my vehicle, trying to clear the code on my own and it returned, I knew this was an electrical issue and was certain it was the TFP switch. Knowing that this required some transmission work, I checked around to my go to shop at Firestone and another shop.... They didn't offer repair work on transmissions. So I gave a call to GETZ because I'd seen their shop while on a lunch run and they had high reviews. I called them and talked to Jimmy, very nice guy, extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I explained to him what was going on and that I needed the TFP switch replaced. He got me set up with an appointment. I dropped my truck off and Jimmy kept me up to date with all the service test being conducted. Eventually after the tech did an outstanding inspection and diagnostic of the initial condition of my vehicle, I was impressed. After multiple test on the transmission, the tech finally duplicated the issue and found that the TFP switch needed to be replaced. They ordered the part, got it fixed and after a day of driving I noticed a much more firm shift, obviously the repair worked. The pictures of the old part shows that it was completely trash and I'm lucky it never failed while driving. Getz did a fantastic job, I left a few pictures that they sent me. They use a very modern system of customer notification that includes video uploads and pictures, such as a loose battery cable that I actually intentionally leave it loose for my own usage. Id only seen this level of service and video/picture similar at the Lexus dealership and even Lexus was not this good. I would whole heartedly recommend Getz and will probably use them again. The early bird drop off and after hours pick up was also super easy!!!! Here's why I deducted the 1 star and this is strictly my experience.... They charged me a diagnostic fee of $180, only to come to the same conclusion that I had initially scheduled the vehicle for the service. It felt unnecessary in my situation because I came with a very specific request knowing which part needed to be replaced. I did not bring my truck in and say "my transmission is messing up, let's check it out"..... then I would understand a diagnostic fee, that would be very appropriate. I figured this is their standard business process, so it's something to keep in mind that you're out $180 before the repair even starts and that money doesn't go toward the repair. So that's my only issue and luckily it's not a deal breaker. They did find another savings in the repair service that offset. Which for all other reasons made the knowledge of the diagnostic useful if I had other unknown issues, but in my case I didn't. Again, top tier quality from GETZ, they have the skills and tools to do the job right!!

    Several years ago, I gave a solid 5-star review to Getz Automotive for the work they did on my…read morevehicle (while in their old location). I stand by those (then) comments. Just recently, I brought my vehicle down to them at their new location and talk about a gorgeous (huge) facility. Resembling more of the large professional service facilities that you've seen in large new car dealerships, Getz Automotive was definitely aiming to make a statement. When you first walk in, there is the customer service desk where you are greeted, and to the left of that is a large, updated waiting area with a large flat screen TV on the wall. To the right of the waiting area are the maintenance bays - and when you look through the window, the first thing that strikes you is how clean everything looks - again, just like the professional service areas that you've seen at new car dealerships. Everyone is super friendly to be sure. Now, rather than go into what was accomplished during my latest visit, suffice it to say that on this visit, I ran into some issues that were addressed in a very timely manner by the store manager, Tim. It becomes immediately obvious that the folks at Getz are quite conscientious about customer satisfaction, and they'll do what it takes to make things right. There are several areas that I would like to highlight: 1. First are the techs/mechanics - as these are not your typical mechanics that you might run into at some of the numerous hole-in-the-wall private auto service establishments. The techs at Getz are of a high caliber, able to diagnose problem areas that can elude some of the competition. 2. When it's time to pick up your vehicle, if you don't have a ride to bring you in - not to worry, as Getz will call an Uber driver for you. Not many (none that I can recall) auto service centers do that (unless you've purchased a new vehicle and brought it into that car dealership service center - and even then, not all dealerships provide transportation). So you really can't go wrong by taking your vehicle (whether new or old) to Getz Automotive. Yes, you may pay a bit more, but then you'll know that you received the attention you are looking for, along with a level of mechanical competence that your vehicle deserves. That's all I have - very satisfying! Ben Herrmann Master Gunnery Sergeant US Marine Corps (Retired)
