We first brought our Subaru Forester here in January of 2024 for a major repair, and we have been coming back ever since. They quoted us over 2k LESS than the dealership and provided details on everything that needed to be done, but also let us know what things could wait until later vs. what was urgent. From that very first appointment last year until today, when we had our brakes done, they've continued to impress me with their speed, thoroughness, and honest, respectful approach to what they do. As a courtesy to their customers, they offer transport to and from their shop while your vehicle is being repaired (within a certain range of miles I believe). They even gave our car a wash and vacuum free of charge at our last appointment! If you're looking for a cheap, quick fix, you're better off looking somewhere else, because they are not super cheap. But we have taken our vehicle elsewhere as a cheaper option prior to finding Walt's, and I suspect that's why we ended up with some of the issues that they fixed at Walt's! If you care about your car and want to ensure it's taken care of correctly, they should definitely be at the top of your list. Thank you to Paul, Cece, Angel, and the Walt's team for what you guys do- it does not go unrecognized! (Special note: as a woman who knows nothing about cars, I have never once felt intimidated or unsure as a customer here- they are very forward and detailed about everything and willing to explain anything that you don't understand. In a world where many would take advantage of a customer's lack of knowledge, their trustworthiness is such a breath of fresh air.) Appt 1 (1/24): cam carrier/valve cover gasket/timing cover/af ratio sensor/mass af sensor/oil change Appt 2 (6/24): new battery, tire rotation, new wipers, oil change Appt 3 (1/25): alignment, new lower control arms, new outer tie rod ends, oil change Appt 4 (7/25): new front axle shaft assembly both sides Appt 5 (10/25): new brake pads and rotors

AMAZING SERVICE AND STAFF!!! we have used the same mechanic since 2008 and a couple year ago they sold that business and the service was never the same and staff was awful... so I looked around for another shop that was reputable who'd been in practice for some time when I stumbled upon Walt's auto service... they were immediately welcoming with an absolutely fair and affordable price for the services they rendered. They were quick, efficient, communicative, personable and extremely pleasant to do business with. Paul was such a delight and Angel was exactly that, an ANGEL! He not only fixed my vehicle he kept it an extra day and thank god he did because a hose blew and it was then replaced within hours that same day. I will not be taking our truck (or any of our other vehicles for that matter) to any other place from here on out! Thank you guys so much for all your help!

Walt's impresses me repeatedly with the quality of their service. They explained their findings clearly and provided photos of the areas they inspected. When I had questions, they looked at my car with me and provided further explanation. And the office staff is friendly and efficient!
