Review from FearLess L.
Paradise Valley, AZ
10/19/2011
I've rented a bay there whenever one of my cars needed work. Prior to my first rental, I had to watch a video and sign a release. they drove my car in and put it up on the lift. Understand, this establishment only rents you a lift and tools. It's not meant to be an ordinary mechanic's garage.
As the owner of a couple of foreign cars, including a diesel Mercedes, it's hard to find places that won't take you for an arm-and-a-leg just to change the oil. I bring my own oil, filters and tools. I'm usually in-and-out in an hour.
There are entire tool chests for rent (with air tools) for an additional $10/hr. They can order whatever parts you need, from oil and filters all the way to crate motors/transmissions. There is access to online Mitchell Manuals if you need a reference materials. I just wish they had a parts cleaner.
If you get in over your head (I have), ask for Rick. He will help you or take over the job for a reasonable price. I've seen him working on Ferraris, Porsches and Mercedes.
There has been some confusion. I've seen other "professional" mechanics in there. Remember, they rent a bay just like you. I've seen some pretty cheesy activity by some of these guys (Hello, Don). If Rick works on your car (at your request) you will get a U-Fix-It receipt. He stands behind his work. He did on one of my cars. -

I really have nothing good to say about this place, I went there in December 2011 to get my car fixed, yes it was fixed but not in the way explained to me by Mister Rick whom I think is the owner by previous reviews. The repair took longer than expected and forget talking to anyone on the phone espiecally Rick. Some person with a bad attitude and terrible eastern accent answers the phone if anyone does. My car was not fixed properly and the price to do so was outrages, from what I can tell these people are hacks and I would never go there again let alone referring anyone to them. BECAREFUL DON'T LET THEM SEE YOUR WALLET, THEY ARE VERY FRIENDLY AT FIRST TILL THEY HAVE YOU IN THIER CLUTCHES AND YOU BECOME THERE NEXT VICTIM.
