The Best Honda & Toyota Mechanics in Colorado!

I went into Independent Auto Care about a year ago for a routine oil change, and was pleasantly surprised by the clean waiting room. I let my baby crawl on the floor (which I NEVER do) while I sat and read a magazine. I have been taking my Honda & Toyota into Independent ever since, and have been amazed at how honest, dependable, and professional these guys are. Being a woman, this is so important & I will NEVER go anywhere else!

• Pros: Rick, Randy, and Rob are real professionals

Randy Garrison saved me a couple hundred dollars on a repair that the ToyDoctor said I absolutely had to get done on a very slight leak in the engine seal -Randy has been able to monitor the leak between oil changes-no problem-no worry about getting ripped off on car repairs from these nice gentlemen-especially Randy, he is very honest, professional, and very skilled

• Pros: trustworthy people taking care of my car
• Cons: none

This shop is 30 miles from where we live but it was worth the trip

I took my 2000 Honda Civic to these guys for its 90k mile service because they were more highly rated by their customers than any other place in the Denver/Boulder area that I could find. I wasn't disappointed. Their quoted prices were very reasonable compared to other shops (their quote included a 15% discount on everything because they had just mailed out a coupon--they gave me the deal even though I didn't know to ask for it.) They were able to get my car in within a couple of days and it was ready the next day. They did the routine 90k stuff: changed timing belt and other drive belts, flushed radiator, rotated tires, changed manual transmission fluid, etc. (we replaced our own battery and spark plugs). They also diagnosed and fixed a problem we were having with the car overheating during idle, and they replaced the pads and resurfaced the rotors on my front brakes--all for about $900. Rick was very helpful and pleasant, and when we asked him to re-charge our A/C he said they'd do it if we wanted but that it probably wasn't necessary. All around good experience.

BTW, here are a couple of tips:

1) We typed up a list of all the service we needed done and then faxed it to about 5 places for quotes (which they faxed back to us). Made comparison shopping easy.

2) There's an Enterprise Car Rental a block away from this shop, so that might come in handy.
