Spitfire

Spitfire is proficient in repairing all kinds of automobiles. They are equally adept at repairing vintage muscle cars, as they are the most modern cars. They take the time to diagnose your car's ailment, using a computer generated…

great service!

Went here to have a minor problem fixed. Service was quick and way more reasonably priced than I had expected! Will definately take my vehicle here for any future problems. By far this is the best shop in the area!

Finally!!! A car repair shop that not only does things right in their state of the art facility, but they garuntee their work. Awesome.
I had gone to numerous different car repair shops that were quoting me at least about 500 dollars to repair the passenger side lower control arm and a couple of other rinkydink things. But $500+ dollars is a decent amount of money no matter who you are. Plus to have someone look at the car and make an estimate takes at least a half an hour and sometimes costs money. So after geting quotes from about 4 different shops, I finally brought my car to spitfire and was nearly floored about what happened.
They looked at my car and within 15 minutes they had diagnosed the problem and had given me an estimate. The funny thing is that the previous four places that had quoted my and told me that certain things were wrong with my car, they were wrong.
As it turns out it was my stabilizer bars, and a missing bushing on the passenger side. That was it. So within a couple of hours after dropping my car off it was fixed, plus I saved more than $150 bringing my car here.
So my recommendation is bring your car here. The work and parts are usually garunteed, they have more specialty certifications than any other garage I've seen. Not to mention they have state of the art equipment.

$1000 for a catalytic converter? 2001 Toyota Rav 4? Should have went somewhere else.

An engine Diagnostic Test = $78.88
They found close to $1,000 stuff of repairs with my car, with the actual parts costing about $400 with shipping after I googled them. Their waiting area sucks if its hot outside even with the AC being on. They explained to me what was wrong with the car at an average level.. nothing too extraordinary.
I should have gone to the Car-X right across it, either ways I will just wait till this car breaks down and buy another one because paying $1000 on car repair is not worth it.

I have had my car repaired by them a couple of times now, pricing is a little on the high side but they do good work!

September 2011. Engine Diagnostic Test = $98+. Quoted $750ish for repairs, $350 for part and $400 for labor. Googled part online and found how simple it was to purchase and replace. Picked up part locally for $208 for Carquest and installed in less than 30 minutes. This place is a joke.

I'll just say this "Garbage". Their technicians are not knowledgeable and the manager was an ass and the way he was chewing his gum was screaming "Dirt Bag". Never will I come back here again.

This shop is one of the best in the area for car repairs. Highly recommend them! Honesty and integrity are very important to me and Spitfire has- both! The management team is very professional, courteous and friendly and the mechanics are top notch! I have never been disappointed with the quality and skill applied to the repairs. They are far cheaper then dealer service for almost everything. Some discount places may sell tires or batteries cheaper then Spitfire but unless it is a must repair under dealer warranty I bring our vehicles here for service. Its also the cleanest shop I have ever seen! I would not be surprised to see white linen tablecloths on the car hoists!

My check engine light was on. An ongoing problem for 2 years now. Kept coding the catalytic converter or something like that. I had it replaced last June. This morning I had my car towed to Spitfire and later in the afternoon, my car was ready for pick up! The service was surprisingly timely! That's a good sign. Let's see how well a job they'll do.....When I picked up my car, I had reservations about them actually addressing the issue with my car. That's based on my past experience with other mechanics. The other place I used to take my car to never seemed to know much about what was going on with it, even after they "fixed" it. The guys at Spitfire were very knowledgeable about what needed to be done and so far so good! My car seems to be on point! I'll write another review in a couple of weeks, good, bad or otherwise (whatever that is)!
