Won't go to any other mechanic. I recently moved out of the state and still use the Shop as my mechanic, you can't find a more honest and reliable automotive shop.

Thank you for this note, Hannah! We love being your trusted mechanic and we're here for you in Boulder when you need us.

I brought my sprinter in for a transmission service, which was quoted out 250$ higher than the dealer for the identical service. Moreover, the mechanic said that he was unable to work on the van unless the driver side window switch was repaired due to 'liability', diagnostic starting at several hundred dollars which did not go towards the repair. Keep in mind that the driver door opens, and the passenger window works as well, for all talking-to-coworker needs, driving it all of 20ft into the lift. This broken window has never been an issue anywhere else. Most damning, as other commenters have said, they worked up a list of many other issues, some legitimate, but others that really didn't make sense to have on there, I.e. things that I recently fixed. When I pressed about some of these issues, the response was "We all have to eat." Not my lunch! And hopefully not yours either. Beware of taking your car to The Shop.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your concerns and take all reviews seriously as we aim to provide transparent, reliable service. Unfortunately in your case an operable driver side window is a prerequisite for service at our shop. You can understand that driving a large vehicle inside of a building with very expensive equipment and vehicles in close proximity represents a significant liability. Our shop is in fact 120 feet deep and it can be tricky to get into the bays when there are up to 15 other vehicles being serviced simultaneously. To address this we have developed a number of procedures that are designed to prevent damage to vehicles and harm to our employees. I'm sorry if you don't agree with our emphasis on safety, but it is our policy nonetheless. This was explained to you in person very politely. To clarify, the response "we all have to eat" was in regard to your insistence that we perform services on your van for free. We indeed do have bills to pay here and we absolutely do not work for free.

I was so excited to have found this place and finally have a small and reputable mechanic the work on my highlander. Unfortunately, the first time I brought my car in about a week ago, I forgot to take my Ray Ban sunglasses out of the glove box, and they were missing from their case when I went to put them on the next morning after my car was at the Shop mechanic all day the previous day. I knew I should have went back but I had already walked several blocks towards home. Regretting that decision now that my 180$ sunglasses are gone.. And also bummed to have to continue looking for another (actual) trustworthy mechanic.

Hey Tracey. It was good to meet you and we are glad to have you as a new customer. We would love to continue service on your Toyota. On the subject of your sunglasses and the recent service, I believe this is more correlation and less causation. I'm confident that it is a very unfortunate coincidence and I really hope you will consider the possibility that you could have misplaced them. In our phone conversation I had offered to sit down with you and go over all of the security footage from when your Highlander was in for service. I would like to personally show you there is absolutely no chance that one of my employees stole your sunglasses and put you at ease in this regard. Our shop is wired to the moon with security cameras and we have had zero issues with theft over the last 10 years we have been in operation. If in that meeting we find that there is something I missed or that I am somehow wrong I will be happy to replace the sunglasses and I'll even buy you an extra pair. In the future it is a good policy to remove all of your valuables from your vehicle during service. It absolves both you and your mechanic of all possible liability for lost items and is a best practice for all parties involved.

They are very honest when they inspect the car,Tell you what you need to fix immediately and what can be postponed to the next visit. Technical expertise and customer service are fabulous.
