Yelp to the rescue again! On our a trip from California to New Mexico, we heard a recurring noise…read morethat seemed to be coming from one of the rear tires. We stopped at Sam's Club and it turns out that our wheels were out of balance so they fixed that. However, when we left, the noise was even louder. I looked on Yelp for a local Auto Mechanic. I found Auto Rehab which had a 4.9-star rating with 94 reviews. They saved the day for us! Right off the bat, from our description they thought it was likely a bad wheel bearing. We left our car with them at about 1pm and walked across the street to a cute little coffee house. We got a call in less than an hour to confirm the problem and get the price. We had already started looking for hotels since we didn't think there would be any way our car would be ready the same day. They did, however, say they'd do their best, which we appreciated! At about 3pm, we walked back to the shop. Our car was out for a test drive. It was fixed!! We got on our way and would make it back for a cousin's 80th birthday dinner the next day! Added bonus: The owner is Derek and the other employee who helped us was Troy. They were both super nice. We thought the price was fair. And Derek provides an additional warranty beyond the normal 12k miles. He told us the repair is guaranteed for 2 years. He said he buys the extra warranty because a lot of his customers are passing through town and live in other states. All we have to do is call him if we have a problem within two years and he'll give us a number of a local mechanic that will honor the warranty. How cool is that?! We were also impressed when Troy brought out the damaged part to show us without us even asking. Lastly, they have a very comfortable waiting room with tables and a sofa. I hope we don't have future car trouble near Flagstaff, but if we do, we would absolutely go back to this shop.

I know they are going to help me with the maintenance of my car without trying to sell me on unnecessary work. My dad owns a car shop in Washington so growing up I was spoiled and never had to deal with the ridiculous sales tactics of the industry. Before I found Heath's I went to two other places in Flag, one being a dealership- Awful experiences with blatant lies trying to take advantage of me. But Heath's was and always has been honest about my car and both Jeff and Jeffrey let me know what I need vs what I could do and how that impacts the mileage I'll get out of my car in its lifetime with me. That's HUGE. Plan ahead and schedule an appointment. They are busiest than their competitors for a reason.

I booked an appointment online, and upon getting there, he told me he didn't have it. I had an email and text, but found out it had been for their other location (I was not aware they also owned ascot nor did I select that location). It was a misunderstanding, but he provided no understanding, solution, or explanations, just told me it was at Ascot. I proceeded to walk out, as I was not going to spend money with them or at Ascot after being treated so poorly. My guess is, I'm not the first person to do this, so maybe it's their booking system...

They showed me both were in good shape. I offered to pay for the inspection, but they very kindly waived the fee.

Basically everything they touched is worrying me. This is my daily driver I put probably 90 miles a day on this thing. At the end of the day I should have done my research and walked away as soon as I stepped foot into this place. Not mad at the shop I should take my truck back in a demand they fix the new issues but this would be the third time now and I feel like I will just leave with some slapped on temporary fix again. Long story short don't be like me DO YOUR RESEARCH!

Tim is a very good mechanic. He's neat, organized, and really cares about every customer. He's been…read moreat the same location for 6 years and is now moving to a new bigger location. I believe he is 100% honest and his prices are reasonable. I'm sure there will be growing pains when he hires mechanics for his new location. However I also believe he will hire the best people. He is more concerned about his good reputation than money. No matter which shop you take your car to, there will be problems. However if there is a problem, I believe that Tim will take care of you and make things right asap. I've been working on my own cars over 40 years. I could see that Tim runs a good shop.

I initially went to R&A Imports after another Flagstaff auto shop recommended them. I brought in my…read moreSubaru for an oil-consumption issue and was so impressed with the customer service that I decided to bring my husband's Subaru in for an ongoing problem as well. Unfortunately, that experience was completely different. We left his Subaru with them for an entire week, and it was never even diagnosed. We picked it up and later gave them another opportunity, dropping it off again for several days. Once again, it was not looked at. When we told them we needed the vehicle back by a certain afternoon, we ended up being charged $140--even though the problem had never been diagnosed or repaired. I understand shops get busy, but keeping someone's vehicle for days at a time without looking at it, twice, and then charging $140 was incredibly disappointing. We gave R&A Imports more than one opportunity because our first impression was so positive, but unfortunately, we will not be returning with either of our Subarus and I cannot recommend them based on our experience.

I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before having any work done here…read more My son lives in Flagstaff and his car broke down, dumping fluid all over the street. We had it towed to University Auto Repair, where we were told the radiator needed to be replaced and the fluids refilled. That immediately raised a red flag because the radiator had been replaced less than a month earlier. Rather than authorize the repair, I decided to have the car towed all the way back to Phoenix to the shop that had just installed the new radiator. Sure enough, there was nothing wrong with the radiator. It was simply a hose. My shop in Phoenix fixed the problem and didn't even charge us. Afterward, I read through several other poor reviews about University Auto Repair, and I'm extremely glad I trusted my instincts and had the car towed elsewhere. I can only draw one of two conclusions from our experience: either their mechanics completely misdiagnosed a relatively simple problem, or they were recommending an expensive repair that the car did not need. Either way, that is extremely concerning. We paid to tow the vehicle roughly 140 miles back to Phoenix rather than trust their diagnosis, and it turned out to be the right decision. My advice: If you're told you need a major or expensive repair here, get a second opinion before authorizing anything.
