Wonderful service for more than 20 years. Great people.
Blown away but the customer service here. After getting the run around with a slightly non-standard suspension repair on my econoline van, they offered me multiple solutions ranging from the cheapest and simplest fix, to the fanciest upgrade, and helped me find the right solution for the way I use my vehicle. They…
Our family has been using Lake City Autoworks for decades with at least half a dozen different makes and models, and we have complete trust in Karl. He is honest, knowledgeable, and fair, and we have complete confidence in his expertise and integrity. We cannot recommend him highly enough!
Just purchased 1936 Restromod Ford pickup that needed serious attention. The owner and mechanic gave my truck their full and careful attention. Autoworks will be our go to shop as long as we own the truck.
The service was great. Got it done on time and at a reasonable price. Very satisfied.
Been going to LCAW for many years for a variety of problems with our cars. The service is great. In the last year we had a starter motor replaced and a air condenser replaced. Their charge on the AC was lower than a competitor because they were able to reuse an existing part not replace it. Would definitely recommend.
Great service and very nice people to work with. My car broke down and the got it repaired the day I brought it in. Highly recommend them as a Seattle native.
The staff here made a point of finding the right parts that would not break the bank and were able to complete the repairs inside of a day. I am grateful that they are thorough and respectful.
It’s really difficult to find mechanics you can trust. Even if it’s not the case- I felt that Karl (I think?) went out of his way to genuinely make me feel like he really cared about my safety and the context around my car the repairs it needs, which is all that matters to me. I don’t recall the woman’s name at the…
I have been using Lake City Auto Works for several years, I happened on them by accident, and was treated so well I can’t imagine going anywhere else. Everyone there cares about your car, I have been in several predicaments where they have come to my rescue. Even when they are busy, they make time for your car. They…
Best experience I have ever had in an auto shop. Lake City is knowledgeable and exceptionally helpful and kind. They took what was a pretty crumby situation and helped it feel a lot better and took incredible care of my car. I know only come here for oil changes as well as anything major. Could not recommend more!
Lake City Autoworks repaired both of my cars on time and with dependable quality work. They definitely will be the “primary care provider” for my cars in the future.
Very reliable Auto mechanics. I have taken my car here whenever I need servicing. Karl is very personable & professional. I feel like they know their cars here & I'm in good hands.
