Graeme G.’s Review of: All Wheel Drive Auto Wow, what great service! (rating 5 out of 5)

I’ve never had someone I could refer to as “my go to guy” for service
  on my Subaru Outback and my Subaru Impreza. Actually, I’ve never had a
  “go to guy” for any car I’ve ever owned. For that reason I’ve never
  been inspired to write a review for a mechanic before. But in
  Kirkland’s All Wheel Drive Auto I’ve found a team that I can trust
  with my cars. There is nothing in my life more important to me than
  making sure my family is safe; a critical part of that is making sure
  that my vehicles are sound, and I can know that my wife and children
  can go out and be safe on the roads.

Justin has proven himself to really care - not just about my Subaru
  Outback and my Impreza, but about me, as well. I can trust him to look
  out for my best interests; he’s up front and honest, and his prices
  are very fair. Honestly, I don’t know how his prices compare to other
  mechanics - either Subaru specialists or generalists - but it doesn’t
  matter to me because I trust him.

Just be warned - he cares deeply about the impact of our vehicles on
  the environment; if you’re not careful, you’ll get a master’s level
  discourse on how our vehicles could run better if only… Justin’s
  awesome - try him out, and you’ll see why.

Justin and Randy:

Just wanted to send a word of appreciation…What everybody wants in an auto service provider is to be able to trust two things: 1. That you are experts 2. That you won’t over-charge.

You went beyond ensuring that trust, and made it so pleasant for me to do business with you. Thank you for being extra-beyond-the-call-of-duty helpful, for providing printed copies of manufacturer’s instructions for a specific type of wind-noise repair, for doing such a thorough job of the post-purchase inspection of my Legacy. Thanks also for the convenience and the loaner/rental car, which really took a lot of headache out of getting the car serviced. And thanks for the Starbucks gift card! On top of all that, I appreciate your sense of humor. =) …

I could not be happier with your service (unless you provided it completely free of charge ). Consider me a lifetime customer.

Best regards,

Dear Justin,

I’ve been meaning for a long time to write you a thank you note letting you know what a pleasure it has been to do business with you as well as get to know you. Greg and I greatly appreciate you and your employee’s hard work, knowledge about engines/cars, honesty, and your easy-going and friendly manner. You have gone above and beyond to ensure we are satisfied and taken care of, and you will always be the mechanic we choose. We’d be happy to give a recommendation if you ever need one.

Best,
Megan and Greg H.

PS - the Subaru is running great in the heat, thanks for the follow-up call

Sarah S.’s Review of: All Wheel Drive Auto Exceptional Customer Service! (rating 5 out of 5)

Safety is my #1 concern when it comes to my car. Therefore, I don’t
like to leave her in the hands of just any Joe Jiffy. When I expressed
my concern about my check engine light being on to an acquaintance, he
said he too has a Subaru and referred me to Justin at All Wheel Drive
Auto. A referral is a thousand times better than a fancy commercial
with a catchy jingle. So, I took my car there for a diagnosis. When
Justin took the time to show me under my hood what he and Randy found,
I knew he had my safety in mind and that he was honest. He already had
me at “Let me show you under the hood.” But when I came back and he
arranged and PAID FOR! a rental car for me for the day, I was shocked!
Now that’s customer service!! I recommend All Wheel Drive Auto to
everyone.

Hello Justin - - - Thanks SO MUCH for all your help last Friday and Saturday (April 13th and 14th). I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your immediate response to my automotive predicament. From my first phone contact with you, to arriving at your shop with my car on Alan’s (Totem Lake Towing) flat-bed truck, to the careful attention to and repair of my car (including chasing down the necessary parts late on Friday afternoon and coming in on Saturday morning to complete the
work) . . . you displayed a level of professionalism and courtesy that seems all too rare these days. I also really appreciated your clear communication to this “mechanical dummy” of the details of the problem and subsequent repair. All in all, you and your tech (whose name escapes me) did a superlative job. I wish you the best of luck with your business in the coming years . . . based on my experience, I’m sure you’ll enjoy outstanding success.

Cheers

   Hi Justin,

   I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the excellent experience with your company. Your response to me when I had trouble after a repair you did was superb, even though it was not the fault of you or your service, but rather a bad part. You truly went the extra mile! I also was not easy to deal with as I have a complicated schedule that got in the way of the reschedule. Throughout it all, you were pleasant, helpful, and never once upset that you had to do a complimentary redo that was an expensive job to begin with. I work with the public, and it is a pleasure to find someone who is not only excellent at what he does, but provides true customer service, which is a lost art today. I have already begun refering people to you, and I will continue to do so, and will be back in the future. Many thanks again for your excellent business/service all around.

   Cheers!

   Deborah Middleton

   We’ve been taking our Subaru Impreza Outback to Justin at All Wheel Drive Auto for the past year. We’ve been extremely impressed with the level service provided by Justin and his staff. They are knowledgeable, honest and priced fair. We would recommend using their services for any of your automotive needs.

   Justin,
   We often hear about car ‘people’ taking advantage of women because they think we are easy targets. I can very much say that I trust you and All Wheel Drive Auto to be honest, fair and competitively priced. I appreciate that you take the time to talk to me, and explain what is happening, why and what the options are. Each time I have had my car in, I have felt like a very valued client and have trusted completely that you are doing excellent work. You and your employees go above and beyond in customer service and that is why you are the one and only person I trust my car with– and HIGHLY recommend you to others.

   Justin,

   I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the excellent service and attention to detail you gave me on my 60K mile tune up. You took the time to give me an accurate quote and then took the time after the repair to explain everything that was done and showed me the parts that were replaced. Once again you truly went the above and beyond, Thank you for everything.

   Regards,

   I recommend All Wheel Drive Auto with all my confidence and trust. They do a thorough and complete job for a fair price and their level of communication with the customer goes well beyond expectation. Justin is amazing and he has proven his goal is to keep cars safely on the road for as long as possible and providing his customers and the public in general with peace of mind. This business has the integrity and quality that I thought disappeared generations ago. Top Notch!

   Hi Justin - I wanted to thank you so much for all the service and help you have been to me with my car. I feel so assured now that I have someone I can trust and call whenever I have any car questions are repairs. Even when I was stranded with a dead battery, you came right away, got me to the shop and replaced the worn out battery and sent me on my way very quickly.

   Trust and honesty is huge when someone is working on your car especially when I don’t understand what anything is. You have always looked out for my best interest. Explaining what you are doing and what I need. I am so confident of your integrity and expertise, I have recommended you to my family and friends.

   Thank you again.
   Best ~Gail DiRe
