- SBSherry BroachNov 3, 20245.0The only place I've taken my 2018 Jeep Compass for service!
- LSLiza SmithbergerMar 6, 20215.0My experience at car-x was simply amazing. Eduardo went out of his way to get my vehicle serviced. You can tell right away that he isn’t there just to make money off of you. He really cares for his customers. I will be recommending Eduardo to anyone with vehicle needs! And be a returning customer! Thank you.
- MNMya NunezSep 17, 20185.0CarX is amazing! The staff is super nice. Nick is super down to earth and makes people feel welcome! He is super efficient and makes sure you leave happy. Jason is super awesome too! I went in for one problem, something happened in the process (not their fault) and they both worked super hard to make sure what needed to get fixed did! I will always take my cars here and recommend them to any and all of my friends and family! Thanks guys for being so wonderful!
- EGElvira GallegosFeb 28, 20185.0I've been going to this CarX shop for most all of my automotive needs. Everyone who works there, they're really a great group of people. They will be totally honest with you on what the issue is with your vehicle. Sam the manager is very personable and, really takes care of the customers! He believes in GREAT customer service!! Also, if you don't live too far, they'll give you a ride home (if your vehicle will take a few hours to repair) as well as pick you up at home and take you back to the shop to pick up your car. I recommend this automotive shop to anyone who needs any car repairs. Tell them I sent you! LOL
