We've been expecting you.

I have negligible oil-leak problem in my Mazda 3 and they diagnosed my car today. Joel told me that we can fix your car but you don't have to do that. He instead could have said that you have to do that but he did not. I really appreciate their honest and professional approach to their job!

Joel at Carcanix is such a great guy! He's the VW guru so that's the only place I trust to take my sport wagon—which he loves and takes care of like his own. He's really smart and thorough, and has quick service. He's very accessible with both a shop phone and text numbers, and keeps in touch as he goes with the work. If something needs to be done, he will tell you. If something can wait, he will tell you—he's not going to try and up-sell you or make you spend any more than absolutely have to at the moment. Since I'm local, Joel even dropped me off and picked me up at home which was beyond nice! Can't say enough good things about this place. Honest, good work. I'll be going back in the fall for my new tires. He even helps with those if you like, stays in your budget and helps you pick what will work best for your needs. Super stuff!

This should serve as two 5 star reviews because my family has been with Joel twice already. Finding a trustworthy and reliable mechanic is tough. Finding one who is also personable and friendly is even more challenging. Joel and his staff are that and more. Our first experience with Joel was with my brother-in-law's vehicle, an older vehicle that posed a number of issues in the past. Though he was quoted hundreds more by both dealership and other private mechanics, Joel was able to do the job right for a lesser cost and without my brother-in-law having to negotiate/haggle. My second experience with Joel was my own. My car needed repair. Admittedly, Joel was the first person I contacted. A prudent decision. He treated me with respect, just like he would his own mother - I've witnessed that first hand and she's a sweet lady. The job was done in less time than another had stated (I did my research) and I'm happy to say that my car is in functioning order. He did give me a lesser rate for their typical hourly labor charge - it appears he does what he can where he can. All in all, I'm thrilled to say that I'm just another one of those happy customers of Joel's. I don't know what else to add to his already unsurpassed reviews but that he works honestly, a rarity in his industry. He and his staff's good work is evident. Go to Carcanix. Simple.
