Boulder Auto Repair

These guys are the best in town and probably the best mechanic I've ever come across. We have an '05 Land Rover LR3 that has had intermittent suspension and electrical fault issues for the past 6 months. We brought it to another shop in town (Arapahoe Import Service — don't go there) and they charged us $1200 for the issue to come back two weeks later. John did a complete inspection and a full suspension conversion from air to spring and it's back to new. He's be awesome to work with, explains everything so you understand what's going on and best of all, he's honest. Hopefully won't have to see them soon, but John and The Shop are my go-to shop I can count on. Recommend 100%

These guys are great! Everyone there is super friendly and knowledgeable, and after my experience The Shop is the only place I’d recommend. My ancient Ford Focus had been without heat in the cabin for about 6 mostly-freezing months, and instead would blow cool-to-lukewarm air. Google said it probably needed a new thermostat. I wasted my time taking my car to two other places in town, one of which told me the thermostat was fine and the other said that they couldn’t find any issues. Took my car to The Shop a few weeks ago and Jason was able to quickly diagnose the problem. Guess what? Needed a new thermostat. Now the heat works perfectly, problem solved. Wish I had just taken my car here in the first place! Jason also recommended that two of the engine mounts be replaced, but it turned out that only one needed replacing. I really appreciated the honesty, since there's no way I would have known the difference, and they could have easily made a few more bucks by replacing both. And now my car doesn’t vibrate like it’s about to explode, yay! I’ll definitely be coming back.

Albeit Jason is a personal friend, he is one of the most honest hard working people I’ve met. He saved me hundreds of dollars in work that the dealer suggested I do. I highly recommend The Shop for anything servvice or repair related. Friendly and honest, and not to mention quality work.

These guys are great! John quoted me a price that was well within what I was planning on spending, and the work done was great! They communicated to me throughout the process and were able to answer every question i had. A great shop! Well worth the drive to North Boulder!!

Really impressed with this shop and will be bringing my vehicles here going forward after a recent experience. I took my wife's newer Subaru to wALMART in Lafayette last Saturday for an oil change (yeah, yeah, why did I bring it there?!) and they drained the transmission fluid! Of course, they didn't know what to do other than telling me I might be able to drive it to a mechanic. Long story short, the only shop open on a Saturday night that I could find was this place, so I had it towed there and promptly taken care of. The co-owner, Jason, was there and was not only easy to talk to but also a super nice person. WOW!! AND, OPEN ON THE WEEKENDS!!

Love these guys! My fiance and I were passing through Boulder and needed a quality mechanic we could trust. We called around and went with these guys because they came in under the estimates of the other shops and seemed genuinely cool. We got our timing belt replaced on our 2005 Toyota Sienna and various other jobs done at the same time. These guys were fair, efficient, honest and did really good work to get us back out there on the road. Would definitely recommend them to anyone!!!

Best experience with a mechanic ever! I know close to nothing about cars but these guys are solid! And they are quick, too. I got detailed feedback within hours of driving my car over. John didn't try to sell me anything. He suggested priority areas and gave me an estimate for the fixes that will have to be made eventually. He took my concerns seriously, even though they turned out not be issues. More than anything though, I appreciated that I wasn't treated like a dummy. I often get that treatment as a woman but John took his time to check my car thoroughly. I can highly recommend the shop!

We got in touch with Jason, who works at The Shop, about an hour before they were closing as he was wrapping up his projects at the end of the day, and just needed help swapping out a tire. He was so kind and so helpful! We couldn't have been more appreciative of his help as we were driving cross country and just needed to keep moving! Everybody should go here, they are fantastic.

At The Shop you'll find good men that excel as mechanics. I've been taking my cars to The Shop ever since they opened. When you find a quality mechanic, you tend to stick with them. My experience at The Shop has always been positive, whether on the phone or trouble shooting in-house. Jason and his business partner, John, are incredibly smart, patient, and knowledgable. The staff are courteous, efficient, and organized. Quick turnaround and reliable service!!

Today I drop off a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee that I was considering buying as a used vehicle. Jason and the team at The Shop Automotive did a great job giving me feedback on the car based on their used car inspection. They were quick and very thorough. The information was very helpful towards my decision-making on the vehicle. Thanks guys!!
