We've been expecting you.

So I had the clutch on my car go out recently, definitely not a pleasant experience. I called around to several different places for quotes and it turned out it was going to cost a lot more than I originally thought. Joel (the owner) was the only one who took the time to explain to me that it would be significantly more if the flywheel was damaged and that he wouldn't know until everything was taken apart. Every other shop I talked to just quoted me a flat price (but of course after I had it in I'm sure they would have called and told me 'Oh you need a new flywheel, that'll be an extra $400.') Joel was upfront and transparent from the get go, which is why I decided to take it to him. I definitely made the right decision. While the repair certainly wasn't cheap, the new clutch feels great and he helped me out with a really good rate on the labor. Just talking with him you can tell he's an honest guy and very knowledgeable about what he does. I will definitely be taking my car back here, whether it's just for an oil change or another major repair.

I have never felt compelled to write a Yelp review before but I cannot say enough good things about Joel and his team at Carcanix. Everybody needs to know what an awesome shop this is. I called about having a pre purchase inspection done on a used car in the area and was just completely blown away by the service I was provided at this shop, even from the very first phone call. I found the ad for the used car on Craigslist and Joel actually pulled up the ad while I was on the phone with him and was looking at it with me and making recommendations on what to look for and what to avoid when shopping for used cars. I brought a car to him that I thought was in pretty decent condition for a used car with a salvage title but they looked over the car with such a fine toothed comb and found many things that would have probably cost me a lot of money later on. Rob, the mechanic who conducted the PPI explained all the issues in a way that even the most car illiterate person would be able to understand. Joel is such a straight shooter and he and his team are truly committed to serving the best interest of anybody that walks through his doors. Cannot recommend enough. These guys are incredible!

These guys came through clutch, when I needed it most. I stopped in toward the end of a workday, for a quick fix, that will lead too a follow on repair. Joel and his crew took a look at out and hooked me up, at what I thought to be a fair price. Only reason I don't give five stars is that it was just an in and out transaction. I would like to do more business with them first, and I will. ***I will most likely update to five stars as I continue to do business with them. ***
