Customer Reviews
These guys are great. They never suggest unnecessary work and have always been super honest with me. I often feel like mechanics are trying to pull one over on me but not these guys. They have taken care of a 2007 ford ranger for me, as well as a 2017 Subaru forester. I always feel comfortable bringing my vehicles to them. I made a mistake about six months ago cuz I was traveling and needed an oil change in the forester. I took it to a Valvoline and had them change the oil. Recently it was due again and I took it to West Side Auto. Turns out Valvoline had managed to over tighten the oil pan plug and it was totally seized up in there. We thought the oil pan was gonna need to be changed out for a new one, but these dudes put in the extra effort and were able to extract the stuck plug, even
PLEASE READ BEFORE GOING HERE> Terrible service. I got my rotors replaced at this shop and instead of replacing the rotors they just shaved them down. While this is a cheaper option and is sometimes done its only prolongating the process of getting your rotors replaced. They did not explain this to me well at all and the entire experience was very unfriendly. There was just a consistent bad attitude. Fast forward 6 months.. my car's rotors are totally warped again and need replacement. What could have been a 400 brake job turned into a 1200 dollar repair. This was 13,000 miles after the service was done. So they basically charged me for new parts + (120/hr labor fee) and gave me a 6 month warranty or 6,000 miles when you shouldn't need to replace the brakes for 1-2 years or at least 30,0
An engine light came on our car and it stalled going up a hill. We brought it in around 2 PM for an inspection and they were able to order the necessary part (crankshaft position sensor) and fixed it the same day within 2 hours. The crew were incredibly helpful, attentive, and diligent and the prices were reasonable. Would highly recommend visiting if anyone is in the area and needs a fast repair.
Called to bring my car in for an oil change and to take a look at the A/C. They were able to get me in and out the next day very quickly at a great price! They were very transparent about what work they suggested for my car, and were understanding that I wasn’t able to pursue it at the moment.
I took my SUV to a different shop at first. Check engine light on and problems starting car after I filled the tank. That other shop pretended to fix the problem, and charged me a bunch for it. I then took it to Westside and got the best treatment from Juan and his crew. They were communicative, respectful, and efficient! My engine has been working perfectly since. I will now always go to Westside Auto for repairs and maintenance and you should to!
