REVIEWS

I only trust Carls Car Care to inspect & perform any of my car needs &/or issues. They're always available for a quick response & done with work same day unless parts where needed&ordered. Staff is so friendly & efficient especially Dasha Trent(office mgr) and Mark Simon(Gen mgr) s well as Carl himself. Always give you honest feedback on needs for your car and so reasonably priced, lower than any other place I've checked out and ALWAYS lower & better than the dealers. Same day review & performance only on necessary work. I wad referred to them by a long time trusted friend a few years ago and ONLY go to them. I refer all my family & friends and they also have been very satisfied with their work. Best in N. Glendale/Phoenix area, highly recommend to check them out!!

Kim Roehrman

Great techs and mechanics! Really helpful front of the house staff. A great place to have a purchased car inspected for unknowns or have a car inspected prior to purchase. I think that anyone should easily be able to just their engine in the hands of the mechanics here. Thank you, Carl's Car Care!

Doug Reilly

Good service ,, did the job right first time !!

john anchondo

They are honest and reasonably priced. Carl's won't try to upset you on things you don't need done like the dealerships do.

Crystal Swafford

Super quick and amazing services, 100% recommend this place to anyone !!

Milica Glavas

Amazing customer service all around, speedy scheduling and quick repairs. above all I appreciate the transparency and communication from this business.

Mia Mazzochi

Brought my car for a service and they were great. Quality work and wasted no time. Dasha, the front desk girl was friendly and helpful. The ownership is involved and runs an excellent shop with skilled mechanics.

Sanjin Hadziefendic

Great service!!

Dino Perviz

Carl 's is the best if you want work done at a reasonable price. Go here for that. If, however, you want a fancy waiting room and so forth this not the one. So much more honest than the dealerships around here

Matt Jobin

Good service at a fair price

Sandra Hurst

I have been going to Carl's for at least 15 years and Carl's service is excellent. Carl is always honest and his service is outstanding. I do not go anywhere for my auto service other than Carl's, he is the best!

Nancy Gorman

Great local service

Sean J

Very friendly very considerate of your Situation. Took care of all the problems In a timely manner

Paula Soule

The waiting area is the nicest I've seen with Wifi, coffee, water and hot tea. It was very clean and had comfortable seating. I was able to watch the morning news, too, while I waited. The service was fast, and everyone I interacted with was very friendly.

Quick Lube Services, near Peoria, AZ

I found Carl's when I moved to Peoria about 2 years ago. I have an F-150 that I love, but it has a lot of miles (300K). In addition to regular maintenance, "Carl's Car Care" is my first thought anytime I have an issue. Carl and his staff are skilled at diagnosis and repair, honest about discoveries and options, and I trust them totally. I will always bring my vehicles to Carl's.

Michael Slagle

Carl's Car Care level of service/honesty is unmatched. The staff truly goes above and beyond for his customers. I wouldn't think to take our vehicles anywhere else for diagnostic work.

Leslie Baldwin

I came to Carl in a bad situation. I had some work done on my car by his next door neighbor AAMCO and they significantly overcharged me ($1,300) without any resolution, the check engine light and VSC was on the very next day. I decided to talk to Carl and get a second opinion. He was so helpful and understanding of my situation and the fact that I was a college student. He checked out my car free of charge and found out that the issue was a loose gas cap, my car has had no issues since. I will only go to Carl from now on. He is very honest and takes a lot of pride in his business and helping people. Thanks so much Carl

Cassandra Davis

Easily the most honest and kind dealer out there! I've been twice and Carl, himself, helped me both times to determine the issues, cost, and turnaround times. He never once made me feel inferior for not knowing much about my car. He was so helpful and sweet! The staff is very attentive and wonderful and repaired my car quickly! I love that they're in between large corporations because I will always choose Carl's over any of the other "Big guys" just based on pure professionalism, service and kindness! :)

Stephanie Wirthman

Great service, and very quick! Will definitely come back for future car problems.

Conor Kamps

I got a transmission flush here and the service was great! The job was done quickly with the best price I could find.

Crystal Morales

Honest and friendly. Keeping my 05 Honda running like a top.

Rowdy Modeler

Smart guy that knows what he is talking about. Fair price and he's not going to promise you something he can't deliver.

Taylor Davis

I have trusted Carl's Car Care with the care of my vehicles for the past 7 years. Never have I been disappointed. They are capable, caring, and efficient. They are not the cheapest place, nor the most expensive, but they do great work and try hard to keep costs down. Experiences with car care in the past were awful. Carl's took care of that and turned it around. Thanks Carl!

Kathleen Kromrie-Williams

I had a great experience with this business right before Christmas. I am a woman and know nothing about cars. My fairly new, expensive foreign car was leaking a lot of oil. My engine was smoking. I thought something major was wrong. I was afraid to continue driving it so I took it to this dealer immediately. I am not from this area and knew nothing about this business or its reputation. He was very busy and had to keep it over night. To my surprise, when I picked it up the next day, he billed me only $42 to fix it! He could have taken advantage of me and told me anything, like some of the dealer shops have done in the past. He fixed the problem for next to nothing and I have had zero problems since. I would highly recommend this business.

Christina Knoles

I have been going to Carl's for many years. Since I have a better than average understanding of automotive mechanics and systems I am usually critical of both independent and dealership shops. The knowledge that Carl and his mechanics possess is second to none. Their test equipment and alignment machine is the finest available. One thing that sets Carl apart from the average shop and dealership is that he continually researches the pricing and durability of replacement parts and uses parts that are best for his customers. Their pricing is fair, especially since the job always seems to be done right the first time. I wouldn't consider taking a vehicle any where else (except for factory covered warranty work when I'm stuck going back to the dealer).

Shelby Dansby

Quality work. Fair pricing. Honest business work. Quick work. Easily recommended. A trusted name in the world of small business auto mechanics and vehicle technicians.

Kyle Combes

Carl is a stern man with a passion for fixing boats. his assistants, Carli and Bianca, are also very passionate.

Scott Thomas Suddarth

I'm so grateful for a garage I trust. Carl has repeatedly taken superb care of us.

Russell Johnson

Having moved to Phoenix less than 2 years ago, I had no reference on a dependable shop. I have worked in the Oil and Gas industry for more than 20 years, and I have worn out, beat down, and torn up about every brand of pickup made, and in most cases repaired them myself, so I know whats involved in most repairs. I had just acquired a used Dodge pickup for a daily driver, and it had some issues, mainly needed a water pump. I took it to Carl's, and they did an outstanding job, dropped it off one day, had it back the next, everything went smooth as it could be. They did an outstanding job. However Carl showed his true commitment to customer service a year later. The water pump was leaking, I called Carl he wanted to see the truck. After inspection, he called said that the pump was out of warranty, too many miles, but he replaced it, again his guys did an outstanding job in less than a day, and didn't charge me a dime. Thanks Carl, you are what every business owner should strive to be!

William Smith

Had been told elsewhere that my vehicle had some issues, and that it would require services now for an arm and a leg. Then a friend of a friend said to go to Carl's Car Care. I had my concerns, but Carl put me at ease when he said he needed to look at the concerns, and gave me the choice to fix something that didn't appear to be a "major" concern now, or it could wait til later. He eased my mind, and pocketbook, so I chose to get the work done right there and then.

Jennifer Eddy

Great place to go to get your work done right. No short cut. Good man.

Terry Dutton

Carl has serviced all of my cars for 12 years. Fair pricing, fantastic loyal mechanics, and he would never recommend an unneeded service. He will, however, keep you aware of things that may be needed in the next 6-12 months (never jumping the gun).

Walt Wright

The most honest, ethical auto repair shop I have ever dealt with. Recommend him to all my friends!

Becky Kendall-Jackson

Carl and the other people at Carl's Car Care have so much integrity. Another mechanic told me a belt was breaking in my car and that it needed replaced. I asked Carl to do it (because he is much more affordable) and he told me there was nothing wrong with the belt. He could have replaced it anyways and I would have never known, but instead, he saved me over $200 and didn't make any himself. He had even special ordered the part. He is very honest and looks after the customers here. Everyone I have talked to LOVES Carla Car Care and js always pleased. They're also very quick and efficient.

Adam Miller

I am new to Arizona and was looking for a smaller business when my check engine light came on. I did some research and found Carl's, read the reviews.... Some I know for a fact now were probably from some confused overly sensitive people. I made an appointment and it was not the diagnosis I wanted but it was what I thought it would be (at a VERY reasonable price). I spoke with Carl the entire time and he was completely honest and kind (as well as the wonderful people that also work there). I will continue to go to Carl's as long as I am in Arizona even though he is in Glendale and I live in Gilbert. If you are looking for an honest place I highly recommend Carl's Car Care! Hope this is helpful to anyone that might find themselves in the same situation I was in.

penny romanczyk

Fair pricing, efficient, and quick with great customer service. They were able to help me out the same day and get me back on the road. 10/10 would recommend!

Patrick Loftus

I came in for overheating. They found it was a cracked radiator cap and waived their diagnosis fee! I was okay to pay the fee, but I was delighted that they just charged for the part and coolant refill. It's that kind of treatment that made me sad I couldn't come back when my car broke down in an unrelated way later, as it was too far away. I recommend this place.

Alex Crist

Good people, very knowledgeable.

Dennis Sullivan

I have never been dissatisfied with their work

Bob Huling

These guys are amazing. I've been using them for car care for 15 years. I've referred many people to them as well and all were happy with the service and prices. This shop, and Carl especially, is an honest and ethical car repair shop. I know those words usually aren't included in an auto repair review, but I will promise you it's true for Carl's Car Care. He is fair and stands by his work and word. You will not be disappointed.

bleesdo

Took my 2011 NISSAM ALTIMA 2.5L for a full transmission fluid flush service. I have to say there are very professional, respectful and trustworthy people here. I would recommend to come here considering they had the cheapest quote compared to FIVE other shops.

Sonny Cavone

We needed an honost mechanic to fix our car after it was stolen and couldn't afford what we could have been charged for the repairs It needed. Carls was recommended to us as honost, professional, and service oriented. They exceeded our expectations and I would have no worry's about sending my Mom, sister, or anyone else their on their own.

On my book, nothing any better. Trust and integrity are the key words here. Probably thousands of car service facilities around town but WHO do you choose and WHO can you trust...Carl's Car Care pulls 100% with me. Been going there since 2009, not one single issue to date. Very fair prices and clean facility. Knowledgeable and super friendly staff. From a simple oil change to replacing a transmission, would encourage anyone to try them.

My Honda's AC went out this weekend.. Honda told me it was the whole system (apparently there had been a recall on the AC Clutch but they didn't look after it when it was in their care but now its over the warranty) they wanted over $1200, another shop said it was the whole system. Carl and his staff said come in and let us take a look, They decided it was only the Coil/Clutch and got me out of the door for $600 all done in less than a day Great work Carl & Co
