My bad...My whole family grandkids visiting us and I was feeling sick about taking the chance with bad tires up front. I went to his shop to get his expert opinion and he said he was slammed with jobs. I think he saw how desperate I was he said he'd slip me in and rotated and balanced my wheels in 20 minutes! Said tires were in need of replacing soon but would suffice till after holidays! He saved the day and I'll be able to sleep knowing we are safer. Jeep ran smooth and true. It's the little things that make Great Service. We are truly grateful.

Purchased a used '13 Jeep GC @…read morea dealer in Denver last autumn and last friday I brought it to our local dealer to remove the snowtires, check the factory recalls and to have an oil-filter change (first one while in our possession of the vehicle). They were unable to remove oil pan drain plug and said the bolt head became "rounded" with repeated attempts and that the oil pan would need to be replaced at a subsequent visit & at a cost of $1400 (initially I was told over the phone 1400 and later was told between 1100-1400). I was told the ONLY alternative was to remove the oil pan but that I could contact the dealership conglomerate that last changed the oil in Boulder and/or that my auto insurance company might reimburse us for the necessary repair. I asked if the oil pan drain plug could be removed by some method or drilled out....No. When I picked up the vehicle, I reviewed the printed invoice (#1 - 01F: CHANGE OIL AND FILTER ON A GAS ENGINE Work performed by _____ COULDN'T PERFORM LOF. DRAIN PLUG WOLD NOT COME OUT. RECOMMENDED OIL PAN REPLACEMENT. CUSTOMER DECLINED and scheduled the earliest available return appt for the oil pan in two weeks. At home, I crawled under the vehicle to view the rounded drain plug bolt head and found the bolts on the skid plate didn't appear to have been touched (to remove the skid plate for better tool access like with a pipe wrench) and GOOGLE searched (rounded oil pan drain plug head). Monday, drove to Doc's Auto Clinic to discuss the use of pipe wrench after removal of the skid plate vs. an alternative method like an Irwin bolt grip socket and to schedule the next available appt. Doc reassured me that he couldn't recall having to replace an oil pan because of stuck-rounded oil pan drain plug. Yesterday (thursday) @ Doc's, the "rounded" drain plug did require two bolt grip sockets (first one cracked) for removal but didn't require removal of the skid plate. In their opinion a flush of the crankcase was not required, based on inspection of the drained oil (coincided with previous documentation of the oil changes/mileage on the Carfax when we purchased the car). They placed/gently torqued in a new magnetic drain plug (I had prepurchased @ auto parts store), replaced the filter and filled the crankcase with synthetic blend (my request) all for $60. Happily (relieved), my credit card payment and thank yous were accompanied by a couple of cold, six packs of assorted microbrews from Arctic Liquors and my assurance that both of our vehicles would now be serviced by Doc and his adept team. The four indiividuals that I had any contact with (@ Doc's) could not have been more professional, amiable, competent and confidence inspiring. Disclaimer-My only previous contact with any of the individuals at Doc's was with Doc during a group mtb trip to the Hillyard-Fowler-10th Mtn Div hut last summer. (On the drive home I did stop by the dealership to cancel the oil pan replacement appt, speak with the service manager about the experience-outcome and that we would no longer be bringing our vehicles to their service dept-previously 10 yr relationship with 4 vehicles).

I was quoted that it would be between $125 - $150, depending on how many quarts of oil was needed. Okay, dropped my vehicle off the next day for an oil change. Picked it up later that afternoon, $285 said the girl at the desk. The owner/manager came out and gave me some BS reason why it was twice as much as quoted and twice as much as any oil change, I had ever done prior. Steer clear of this place for sure!

After driving through lots of ice and snow this year, I noticed a wire hanging from underneath the…read morecarriage of my car last week. It looked pretty sinister, and I had no idea how or what had happened and how costly it would be to fix - needless to say, this concerned me a ton! I'm new to Steamboat, so I asked around and had two people recommend Bob Wallace's services to me. One even said, that he was, by far, the best mechanic in town. Right off the bat, I liked Bob. He was super friendly, plus his shop was neat and orderly and both he and the employee I met were courteous and attentive. I had no idea how long it would take to diagnose the problem, but I brought my 2017 Audi wagon there and hoped for the best. Within an hour, I got a message from Bob that the car was fixed. The wire was actually a hose and a wire that had been dislodged from the frame of the car. Bob put it on the lift, cleaned it up in and around the bracket anchor and got it put back together securely. When completed, he texted and even explained what happened by showing some before and after photos. When I came by later to pick up the car, Bob would not take any money for the work that he did, which just blew me away! Not only did this guy do great work, but he was quick, thorough, and did an amazing job. I would recommend Wallace Auto to anyone in or around the Steamboat area! ** Just an FYI, I did not get paid for this glowing endorsement. :)

We had our truck towed to Barron's, and they diagnosed our truck with needing an engine rebuild. So, they reassured us they knew a shop that could rebuild the engine, and then Barron's would install it. The price estimate they gave for install was around $5,000 So, we trusted them and paid Dave's Auto over $20,000 to build the engine and anticipated on paying Barron's $5,000 for the install. Barron's received the engine sometime in March. After countless texts, calls, and emails, Barron's finally decided to return our truck in June with a price tag of close to $9,000. At least we would now have a functioning truck. . . NOPE. Once again the text chain continued. As of yesterday, we realized Barron's is no longer interested in helping us. I'm honestly regretting giving them full payment, but we're honest people, that's what we do. I do understand that they are a small company out of Steamboat, so if you need a small company job done they may be helpful. If you have any serious issues, you should pay for a tow to a more experienced and quality shop. Otherwise, you're looking at $30,000 in the hole and a truck that does not run as it should. Oh, and it's now leaking oil. I will now be saving to get the truck serviced by an expert. Hopefully, we will have a working truck by next year.
