Customer Reviews & Testimonials
Joel the owner was wonderful to work with when I needed a pre purchase inspection (PPI) done on a car that I wanted to purchase hundreds of miles away that is supposed to be delivered to me so I wasn't going to be able to see it in person before purchasing. Needless to say I really appreciated his help and he was very accommodating as busy as he was so that I could get it in and out and not miss out on the sale. He was very thorough in going over the car and very detailed on the inspection report. I highly recommend anyone purchasing from out of state that they get a PPI done because there are some issues that are going on with the car that needed to be addressed and we wouldn't have known it if we didn't have it inspected first by a independant certified technician.

I recently purchased a new vehicle from an independent seller and took it to Carcanix for a full check up. Not only was Joel and his team able to tell me that the vehicle would be well suited for my needs, but they squeezed me in at the last minute of the day - even after quitting time - so that I could purchase the vehicle first thing in the morning. They are dedicated to their profession and making sure that you drive away better than when you came in. Joel is really exceptional at communicating to you what the needs are of the vehicle so that you can understand it. He is also in tune to your financial range of repairs and will look at all options before settling for a more expensive part. As I stated before, I will bring any vehicle I own into this shop - I know I will be well taken care of.

It's rare that you find an automotive repair facility that is advanced in the art of Customer Service. Joel Portnoy is a master at this art. He is beyond fair and hasn't charged me a dime for anything that didn't need to be done. And, in fact, saved me money by not doing a repair someone else told me was required. The fact that this facility is qualified to work on late model Volvo's - which I unfortunately have - is a GOLD MINE find for me. Every repair has been done right the first time and they have a customer for life. I toggle back and forth between Sac and San Jose. I'll trailer my car to this place before I have the thief's at the San Jose shop work on my V70 again!!!
