KJ and Hamid, along with all of the staff, are honest & courteous, with fair & affordable prices.

The mechanic you always dreamed of finding…read more I can't stress enough how much relief I feel, knowing that there is a shop I could take my car to with full confidence that my best interests will always be held as a priority. I took my car in years ago and was so impressed with their honesty, integrity, and quality that I had my entire family switch mechanics for the first time in decades. Not only do they not overcharge you, but they go out of their way to ensure you are aware that more affordable solutions can be possible or that no work may be required at all. In a world where you're unsure whether or not your mechanic is pulling a fast one on you, you can finally put your guard down at Northgate Automotive. The appreciation I have for how they operate runs so deep that when I realized I hadn't already written a five star review, I came back years later to ensure I gave them their flowers. If are this deep in the reviews, trying to find evidence of an Auto Shop that will treat you with respect and dignity, circle this review with the red pen. Once you find the right mechanic, you never look back.

I had a scheduled appointment for a wheel alignment and arrived at the agreed time. When I got…read morethere, I was told that I would have to wait approximately another hour despite having an appointment. What made the experience much worse was the way I was treated afterward. The person at the shop approached me and started criticizing the way I had driven into the area, telling me that I was driving fast "like a police officer." I told him that if he believed I had actually done something wrong, he was welcome to write me a ticket. Instead of handling the situation professionally, he then told me not to come back to his shop. I came here as a paying customer, on time for an appointment, expecting a simple wheel alignment. I did not expect to have my scheduled time disregarded, then be confronted and ultimately told not to return. Regardless of the quality of the mechanical work, this was an extremely unprofessional and disrespectful customer-service experience. I would not recommend this business based on the way I was treated. If the lift was inoperable, the professional thing to do would have been to notify customers with scheduled appointments before they drove to the shop. A simple call or text would have saved everyone time. Customers' time matters too -- time is money. I have attached screenshots because the business owner keeps changing his public responses and his version of what happened. In his first response, he apologized for the inconvenience caused by an inoperable vehicle lift. In his later response, he claimed that I did not have an appointment at all. His description of the driving incident has also changed and become increasingly serious with each response. I am not going to argue about these accusations. I am simply attaching screenshots of the owner's own responses so that anyone reading this review can see how his statements have changed and draw their own conclusions.

Nick and William regularly perform maintenance on my vehicles and they are always upfront and honest about what needs to be done, what should be done, and what could be done to prevent sooner than necessary returns. Depending on the work I typically get my car back within a day or two and am never disappointed with the work done here. Nick teaches auto tech at the local community college and has a plethora of qualifications. Beyond that he is just a great guy and incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to our cars.

Just as much confidence it is getting the care it needs 2. $100s in savings 3. No upsells for unnecessary services from Toyota corporate The people at Toyota are mostly great as well from what I can tell, but they have to offer things that I just don't believe are necessary and I don't like the pressure. Easy automotive is a great value with a friendly staff who goes the extra mile. Daniel, Roman, and Alexandra are especially helpful
