Tony and the team are great!
Great service every time
In a world where trust is at a premium, Solar has earned mine completely. They are experts and perform at the highest levels, with integrity and professionalism. I have used Solar for all my auto needs for more than 5 years and would not consider using anyone else. Thank you to Tony and all the wrenches at Solar.
Solar was quick to work on my car and the customer service was over the top! Tommy was fantastic, accommodating & I'll be back!
I rarely leave reviews, but Solar Automotive absolutely earned this one. I entrusted them with a major mechanical refresh and reliability upgrade on my 2015 Camaro SS, and from beginning to end the experience was outstanding. This was not a simple oil change or brake job — the scope included: intake manifold…
Brought in my 1991 ZR- 1 Corvette to troubleshoot a fuel issue. The shop was eager to work on the relatively rare LT5 engine and quickly diagnosed a faulty fuel pump and fixed a few nuisance oil leaks. I was reluctant to let just anyone work on this vehicle, however the shop could not have done a better job.…
Best & most honest service in town, hands down.
In the last month or two Solar has done the timing belt, CV axles and replaced some leaky gaskets on our 4-Runner. They always communicate throughout the process, have fair pricing and friendly customer service. Solar has serviced three of our family cars and we will continue to visit them for all our cars mechanical needs.
Very friendly and professional. Lots of work done. Got an accurate estimate. Got my car back on schedule.
Experienced a problem with my car that had happened before. They checked it out tightened everything up fix the problem at no charge.
Solat Automotive is fast and fair. They do good work in the amount of time they say. I appreciate the convenience to my house and will continue to give them my business.
Not only did they get my forerunner up and running after another mechanic had made quite a mess of it but they detailed my engine just because and with 210,000 miles on it, it is never looked so clean. Great customer service and satisfaction is absolutely guaranteed.
Replaced drivers side head du to a crack in the original. Stayed on budget, communicating continually on progress and status. Theses guys are my new shop!
The best service every! They went above and beyond!!
Marty was quick to keep me informed about what was going on with my 03 Ford Expedition after its intake manifold ruptured. Every single thing on my receipt was explained and priced out for me over the phone, and we had no trouble picking up the vehicle 10 minutes before closing, to boot. Thanks, Marty!
Solar Automotive is the most honest place to get your car or van fixed. I drive all the way from Denver to go to Solar Automotive because I know I will be honestly dealt with. It is so difficult to find a mechanic that won't take advantage of a woman and I can tell you with certainty that Solar Automotive is the…
Solar Automotive is great, always a pleasure to talk to and get work done by. They give an honest opinion about what's going on with your car, they dont try to pull a fast one on you. These guys are reliable and flexible with your schedule. This car shop is here to help, not take your money. An honest shop. Thank you for your help always!
These guys are amazing. I usually do the repairs on my cars but didn’t have the time. They’re super fast and the quality of work is top notch. I highly recommend Solar Automotive.
We were very pleased with their services. They were on the spot with wrecker service and prompt about helping to get vehicle back on road so we could finish our vacation. The guys there were very friendly and courteous and if back in area we would definitely use their friendly service again. You go guys keep up the good work.
I visited Solar after making many calls around town to find out about getting a full diagnostic check done on my Tucson. While Solar wasn't the lowest price I could find for the diagnostic it was DEFINITLY the most detailed and thorough I've ever seen so I was more than happy to pay a little more for the service.…
