Mark did a great job on our 2009 Honda Odyssey air conditioning system. The compressor had gone…read moreout. When he discovered the condenser was also bad, he checked around for the part & got us the best price. He also changed the serpentine belt while he had it apart, basically only charging for the new belt. He also had it done quickly & we were happy to have it back the same day. The total price was very competitive. Mark & his wife were very nice every time my husband talked to them about our van. Highly recommend.

Mark Ayers has been our mechanic for some time. The past two oil changes have been improperly done…read more Both times we had to add oil ourselves because the proper amount was not added. The first time after bringing it to Mr Ayers attention he quipped "ah old cars burn oil " we have an 07 Mazda that has been taken care of with low mileage for that year...not even 100k. That my friends is not an engine that burns oil. Mr Ayers thinks everyone else is stupid. We were merely trusting..never stupid. The second time it happened just recently, we even had dash warning lights come on. Mark got the first check engine light to go out ..said if it happened again call..that most likely had to do with thermostat something like that. Then the engine started making a ticking noise and oil and engine warning lights on. Thank goodness we were at Walmart...we even called Mark from the car enroute...he poo pooed it....checked oil when we got there and guess what....wasn't even registering!!! Mark had done an oil change the week before.! We again added...we took the car to a different mechanic...there isn't a leak. It had been oil issues the entire time due to him .He reused the oil plug gasket which can be done but ours wasn't one of them, it should have been changed. There is a piece missing that covers the oil cartridge...don't know how long that's been gone..that engine doesn't have the traditional screw on oil filter situation. Mark never ever mentioned it. Dye was placed in the oil by the new mechanic with nothing epic found. So draw your own conclusions...those errors could have caused major engine damage to our main car. As retired folks it could have been devastating. So always check your oil after changes don't be trusting like us. I was happy spending the several hundred dollars at the new very professional auto shop for piece of mind to go over the car. We will never use Ayers Automotive again.

On a whim, I took a chance on Defiance Auto after finding him on Yelp in Ruston -- a young MOBILE MECHANIC. The gods must've been smiling, because he turned out to be polite, efficient, knowledgeable, and even took the time to research my unusual issue. 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

It's rare to find a quality shop open on weekends these days. While I waited in their comfy lobby, I actually enjoyed chatting with the team. It felt more like catching up with friends than sitting in a mechanic's lobby. They are 100% transparent. Brandon only noted a repair I already knew was coming up and never pressured me to spend more. They truly love what they do and care about their clients. Definitely turning into a regular here!

He let me know he was licensed, certified and insured. Once he mentioned this, I did ask a few of the others that sent me a quote if they were and suddenly, they became unresponsive. Spencer took the time to explain what my car needed, the time, and the cost. He updated me every step of the way. I asked him for quotes on a few other things my car will need in the future and again, he provided quotes for each and detailed the process and what his work included. Spencer has my business for life. I have already recommended him to several family members and they are eager to work with him.

There some notable things wrong with it which he pointed out and even estimated how much those would be to fix. We felt confident buying this used vehicle because Jack was there to tell us his thoughts. We also loved that he was very kind and relatable. We immediately felt like we could trust him. I will say the one con was instead of an email detailing everything he found on some official looking letterhead. We just got a text message.
