This is a family-owned business that treats their customers as they would their own family. They are fast and efficient but they are also thorough. That battery drain your technician missed? They would have found it and had it taken care of. Check engine light that continue to come back after taking it to the shop again and again? Nope. There are times I have had to drive it for a few so I can show them how it acts up but they tell me to take it right back and they FIX.THE.PROBLEM. They also stand behind their work 100%. I have heard them ask their technicians "You have to treat each one like family. Act like this is your mom/dad/daughter/son's car if you must because we keep our customer's safe". And you just can't beat that type of personal car for your vehicle.Services: Electrical repair, Air & cabin filter replacement, Tires, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Wheel alignment, Brakes, Air conditioning, Battery, Oil change

Took two vehicles in this past friday. First one an oil change they did a complimentary tire rotation and wash while I waited and It was only $49. First impression was good (the reason I gave 3 stars and not less). I go home drop off my first car get my second car and bring it down. This one is a tire repair and oil change. I tell them i can drop it off for a few hours just need it back before 4:00. 3:00 comes around and havent heard anything so figure I should call and check in on the vehicle. Kristy answers the phone and says they got busy and didnt get to it yet they will call me as soon as its done. Never got a phone call. My car sat there all weekend. I call on Monday morning to find out what happened. Kristy tells me she left early on friday but the vehicle is done. Never got any phone call about it. Then I get there to pick up my vehicle and its $175 for an oil change and wiper blades. Shocked at the extreme price difference. I asked her to break it down as she never quoted me for any service nor got authorization for a repair amount. She said the synthetic oil change is $100. Now I have worked in shops all over the country for the past 20 years. $100 isnt out of the ordinary for a synthetic oil change. I have charged over $200 (with proper authorization and signatures)for oil changes on certain cars in certain markets. But never have synthetic oil changes been double that of a standard. You can litteraly get a synthetic oil change for $50 5 minutes away. I felt a little taking advantage of with the second vehicle. I expected since the tire ended up not needing to be fixed I would be around $125 figuring the synthetic oil change should be around $79.99 based on market pricing and the cost of the standard, the process doesnt change the oil is just a couple dollars more per qt but not $10 more per qt. I can buy 5 qts of royal purple racing oil for $37. I believe their was terrible communication. The invoice states they washed and vacuumed the second car however its just as dirty as when I dropped it off and definitely not vacuumed. Additionaly, I know the second vehicle needs brakes front and rear I plan on doing them in the next couple weeks. I intentionally did not mention this as I was checking to see if I could trust this shop. No mention of brakes that are delaminating and brake pads roughly 1-2/32 in thickness. Thats a safety concern. That should of been something that I was made aware of. They rotated my tires, is the technician incompetent and not see the brakes are low and delaminating while they were 6 inches from his face? Did the technician write the report and Kristy just failed to notify me? Kristy definitely needs some training to become a better advisor. Communication is the most important part of that position and I dont feel as if she possesses the proper communication skills to be an efficient advisor.Services: Tires, Auto detailing, Auto interior vacuuming, Oil change

I arrived was immediately met by a service member. I explained the issues I was having with my truck. They checked it out then called to explain their findings and to get my approval prior to the start of service. Service was quick and very affordable. I definitely recommend this establishment and will continue doing business with them.

I took my vehicle here due to the ac not blowing cold. I was charged ged for the diagnosis which was fine. Things went wrong when my vehicle was not correctly diagnosed and the problem continued. It was a Friday so I went the whole weekend with my ac still not working. I took my car back that Monday and left it over night again for them to do the diagnosis and this time the problem is something else. I honestly felt my car was not diagnosed correctly the first time causing an Inconvenience to me being without my vehicle and they Charged me to fix something that was not the actual issue. I called to see about getting some of my money back and the Manager Amy was very rude and hung up on me. I do not think this is how I should have been treated. Never again

I would leave 0 stars if possible. I had a buzzing sound in my car while I was driving, and the mechanics at Team 1 told me I had problems with both front wheel bearings, with an estimate of $1800 to fix, and that it would take at least a day. This seem incredibly high, so I decided to get a second opinion at Express Oil, where I have had a lot of luck in the past. They told me that $1800 would be reasonable if they were replacing ALL wheel bearings. After performing a test drive, however, they informed me that the front bearings were fine - it was a bearing on the back tire that was bad, and they could replace it for $300. I happily agreed, and my car now sounds great.I called to speak to management at Team 1 to tell them what happened, left a message, but after a week have gotten no response.Do yourselves a favor and stay away from this company. This is the second time I've gotten an incredibly high estimate from them, and will be the last.

Big fan of Team 1! I take both of my cars to them and always feel that the price is fair, the work is outstanding, and the employees are honest with me which is a huge reason why I keep going back! This is a family oriented business and since they are located right down the street from where I leave it makes me feel good to support a local business!

My car broke down on Friday December the 8th I did not know Anyone on that side of town who could fix my car Or who could help me. I found team one driving down Garners Ferry road. Went in and spoke to the associate & they immediately help me and got my car fixed the same day. They have a tow truck as well. Very friendly and prompt people and I am thankful for their fast and friendly service. Thx team1

Well, after 3 trips I had to take my car somewhere else. I think they just guess at stuff. They are not good with Nissans, that's for sure. They also took my car for over 20 min, joy ride on which I was sure the mechanic was doing personal business, since he had done nothing to my car to correct any problems. The people there would not tell me where my car was and I had not authorized anyone to take my car anywhere. Beware of this shop. They do not know what they are doing when it comes to complicated problems and I will not recommend them to anyone. I will tell everyone what happened to me here and no way I'll be back.

Team 1 has done great work on our vehicles everytime. It is hard to find an honest auto repair shop, and they are one of them. I highly recommend this shop over any shop here in town. Thank you Team 1 for all you have done!

Been coming to these folks for years. They will treat you like family, treat your car like it is their own. During my visits there I have seen them give the same care to hooptys (which is mine) and luxury cars.

Jared Jensen I probably the most honest man I know. I didn't worry when I took my car there that I would end up having work one that was unnecessary. He worked me in quickly and finished checking it fast. I would most definitely recommend Team 1 Automotive !!

I took my car there once and they did a reasonable job for reasonable price. Today, I called to ask about replacing spark plugs in 2002 Subaru Forester. $400+ dollars cuz they have to take the off the top of the engine?? Really? I know how to change the plugs. I just don't want to. Called Subaru Dealership. Their price?? $125.00.UPDATE: It took me an hour to replace the spark-plugs. No engine removal necessary. Just some plastic duct work on the left (3 screws) and the windshield wiper fluid container on the drivers side (2 screws, 2 plug-in sensors and 2 hoses (best to empty the container before doing this). Easy-peasy. Methinks they misquoted me ... cuz I'm a girl? It's a thought. And FYI ... Neutrogena facial wipes, they are fabulous at getting grease off your hands.

Rob worked hard to help me understand what was wrong with my car and worked hard to get my car back to me as quickly as possible. I really appreciate the excellent service I received from the guys at Team 1 Automotive.
