Their oil change package is well worth the price. When they do an oil change they take pictures of everything they check on their inspection and show you if anything is needed. I had a bad battery and they sold me one with lifetime warranty. I only pay to have the replacement removed & reinstalled.

I took my car in for an oil change and they were super nice. They also did a full car inspection and gave me a link to the report so I could address additional issues with my dealer since my car is still under warranty.

Did not honor Groupon for amount stated. So your sales guy stated that Groupon made the mistake by setting the amount too low? An extra two quarts of oil and filter could not have amounted to the additional $30.00 I was charged. Service: Oil change

The only place I have found where you can actually have a piece of mind when you leave there that you car was in the best hands. Can't believe it took me so long to find the place, less than a mile from my house

I would give them a zero star if I could. These guys are rip offs, over priced, rude and scammers. After we got some work done from them on our Dodge Charger our car started smoking the next day and one of the workers cut our "underbody lights" cable and put tape on it. They lie about the prices and wanted to double charge us for diagnostics. Money hungry scammers! I see why the shop was EMPTY!

We've had all our vehicles at Good Works, Chevy Suburban, Ford Flex, Mazda Tribute and Chevy Trailblazer. We've had just about every kind of service work completed from the simplest like an oil change all they way to in depth motor repair. All services performed were done with quality parts and expert mechanics. Owners are great people and wonderful to talk with.

Office staff are my FAVE! Love Allen, Matthew and Dominic. they are like my brothers, enjoy visiting with them and feel they put my priorities, concerns and pocketbook first! Customers for LIFE!

Another 5 Star experience with Good Works Auto Repair. I was in need of some pricey repairs, today. However, Blake, the technician in the office, found I qualified for a 20% Off coupon which lowered my bill by $100! I can't say enough about the great people at this shop. 100% recommend them to everyone who will listen. Services: Oil change, Brake service & repair, Air & cabin filter replacement

Matthew and the crew at Good Works always go above and beyond to care for me and my 2001 Camry. They stand by their work, take the time to explain the problems and get me in/out fast. They even replaced my old wheel covers with the new ones I bought elsewhere for free! This is THE auto service you've dreamed of. Services: Oil change, General repairs & maintenance, Engine repair, Transmission, Wheel alignment, Brake service & repair, Steering & suspension repair

I have been going to Good Works for several years now for my oil changes and other maintenence needed. My car is very old and I feel they do a great job keeping it running for me. I always feel confident with their work once I leave. They keep me up to date on what needs to be done which I appreciate because my older brain forgets things easily. But with todays hustle and bustle world I am sure all appreciate that as well. Today they helped me out with something and they really didn't have to. I appreciate you all. Very friendly staff is always a plus. Thank you

I moved to Arizona from California not knowing where to look for my new mechanic, so I started doing a little research and I found Good Works Auto Repair and when my car started to give me problems that is where I took my car. They were honest very fast and they send you a whole spreadsheet of what's wrong with your car, so yes I recommend them, they do 5 Star work

At the end of the work day on Thursday I brought my car in for a full synthetic oil change. They don't normally do oil changes that late in the day but it was the only time we could make it work with work schedule. Matthew and his guys were awesome and charged a great price while showing everything the car might need work on in the future with their full inspection. Really recommend if you need work on your car. God bless these guys.

I go here for my oil changes. They are amazing and do a full inspection of the car and let you know what is needed right away and what can wait and definitely don't make you feel pressured

I just moved out to Tempe and had to get my Prius fixed. Dominic is amazing and helped me through the entire process. He was patient and explained every detail of what needs to be urgently fixed and what can be fixed over time. Thank you to The whole team at Good Works! I'll definitely bring my car there for all my vehicle needs.

The best car repair shop I've been to. They are honest and upfront about everything, and didn't pressure us. Probably the only repair shop I'll go to for any issues going forward

I love this place, they have been the most honest shop I have been to. They even did some repairs without the extra charge. Such a trustworthy place! Highly recommended. My son travels back and forth from school in Tucson, they made sure to check everything so it was safe for him. Our truck is a hybrid and it's very hard to find places who know what to do with these vehicles, I would not take it anywhere else.

Absolutely fantastic service and people working there! I've been there a couple times for lots of different issues with my car and they fix it for a fair price and try to accommodate my schedule. They are beyond professional and kind! I just moved cross country so I'm beyond sad I don't have my favorite auto shop to go to! I can't recommend them enough!

Excellent service, thorough and detailed to make certain issue is resolved correctly and the 1st time. LOVE the car report they provide, extensive and gives you a clear understanding of your car's condition and best direction on repairs. I appreciate the ability to discuss the repairs needed and the effort to make a plan that works financially and best for long term care for my vehicle.

Staff is superb and always good at listening to my concerns, I feel they take what's best for me as priority. I never feel hassled or bullied into repairs, and they appreciate the need to budget for work and help to provide options for affordability. never pressure just honest, helpful, quality service and advice!

I put a much longer review on google, so this will be shorter. I have been there before. My son also uses this repair shop. We trust them to do a good job! I had an issue with my alternator and battery recently. I picked up my suv, and later that day my dash lights All came on. The A/C came on high, and didn't to be shut off. I thought to myself, my suv is possessed!

I emailed the shop after hours, got the truck in. And they put in a better alternator. I have had no issues since, and its been almost 2 months. So grateful for the reliable service.

I have been taking my car to Good Works for a few years and am pleased with the service I receive every time. I have had routine oil changes, and much more complex work, always completed to my satisfaction. Not to mention the little things they do for me on the spot when I stop in to make an appointment or ask questions. Dominic and Matthew are the two service advisors I usually work with and I appreciate their professionalism, kindness, and respect.

They are always willing to take the time to answer questions when I have them. I drive a long way to have my car serviced at Good Works, because I believe it is worth it! I trust them.

My vehicle is 12 years old and needed a general evaluation as well as air conditioning recharge and an oil change. My car was dropped off by my grandson so personal communication was very important to me. As my service was proceeding I received regular communication by text and photos. I really appreciated the organization. All suggested repairs were presented as good, needs attention or needs immediate attention.

There was no pressure to initiate service but simply a truthful presentation of the condition of my vehicle. I use a walker and this was a great way to know what was going on from home. My requested service was completed in a timely fashion and a fair price. I highly recommend this business and I intend to use their services again.

We have been going to Good works for years. They are professional and true to their word. We appreciate that they let you know what service your vehicle needs but they let you decide what you are comfortable doing. Thank you for being honest and caring about your patrons.

Husband took his car here for an oil change but after an assessment he also had to get his front struts replaced and a realignment. They went above and beyond with great service, being able to reduce the original quote and even gave his car a wash which was a nice surprise since we were planning to wash his car after. I think we've found the spot we're sticking with! Can't wait to take my own car here.

I always worry about bringing my car to someone I can trust. The team at Good Works are transparent, professional, priced fairly and I trust them. My 80 mother has her car serviced here, my wife's explorer, my Ford Raptor, and my kids Mini, Mustang and F350. Awesome! I highly recommend.

They do not deserve 1 star. I went in with a 40.00 Groupon for an Oil Change and IF they would have given me an Oil change their additional oil and shop costs were 29.00 bucks! 70 for a Full synthetic oil change. What is the point? They get my car in, the bearded kid pulling it in opened the windows and cranked the AC all the way on. Then, the 2 unskilled mechanics broke my hood latch.

The one came in to ask the sales guy, sitting at the middle desk, if there was a trick to opening the hood, I followed him out there only to find what looked like a 16 year old kid in my car taking apart the interior. He knew he snapped the hood latch yet did not expect me to walk in on him. Upon leaving I asked for my voucher back and they told me I HAD TO COME BACK FOR THE OIL CHANGE. THEY BROKE MY HOOD LATCH AND ACTUALLY TOLD ME I NEEDED TO COME BACK FOR OIL CHANGE ONCE I GOT IT REPAIRED!

I actually got the footage on my cell phone just in case anyone wants to know that these are FACTS! A minor child was in my car and I believe none of them are qualified to be working in a shop. In fact, one of the guys came in earlier and told a sales guy they didn't know how they were gonna deal with a totally different car, yet they would google or YouTube it to figure it out. Um, the customer could probably do that themselves.

This place is a rip off 100 %. Now I gotta fix my latch, probably buy a new grill because that is how you get to pop the hood. NO STARS DESERVED BY THIS PLACE! They even redeemed my voucher with no oil change complete, see below. There are Four grown men sitting at Sales Desks while to untrained, un skilled so called mechanics were breaking my hood latch.

The younger kid in my car was clearly a teenager. To top it all off, they waited 15 minutes to even acknowledge I had walked in the door. 15 minutes! Pathetic! Good Works Auto Repair, LLC Full-Synthetic Oil Change Expires on Dec 04, 2021 Redeemed on Jun 12, 2021

Dominic and his technicians were wonderful for the pre-purchase inspection for a car I was interested in. They were very thorough and took pictures of everything and their condition. They break it down very easily and will be straight with you on if you should get the car and if it is worth the selling price. I ended up not getting the car due to their thorough and honest review of its condition. Which I am super bummed because it was a unicorn car. Off to continue my search for my unicorn car, and I will go back to Good Works for future pre-purchase inspections.

Website should read "we only work on OEM equipment" I recently decided to give this shop a try. Set up an appointment for 3 days in advance (earliest available). I told the CSR that I'd just installed new suspension components and there's a noise that I need to figure out the cause of. I set up a ride and time off work to go dropp off my car.

A different CSR has me fill out the paperwork and were talking about the problem. He then tells me that they don't work on aftermarket parts. Ok, well WHY THE HELL DIDN'T THE CSR SAY THAT TO BEGIN WITH?! Thanks for wasting my time. Due to the CSRs lack of honesty up front, I won't be recommending this shop to anyone.

Just recently moved from out of state when the check engine light came on. Good Works was able to get me in the next morning and did a complete diagnostic which was emailed to me and I was able to share with my husband who was out of state. Matthew did an excellent job communicating and walking me through the report to what our car needed. Thank you for amazing service.

The people who work at and run this shop are absolutely wonderful. I opened my mail and saw that I had received a thank you note. It was so thoughtful and appreciated! I used Groupon to schedule an oil change and that's exactly what I got, no pushy sales or unnecessary recommendations. I also like that they email you a full report including any problem areas that you may need to take care of in the near future. Convenience wise, they have a waiting area with a little counter that has USB charging ports as well as refreshments. It was just such a nice experience especially because I've seen the same faces for 6 months.

Wow! I am from out of town and my check engine light came on. Worried to find an honest mechanic, my friend recommended I go to Good Works Auto Repair. Best recommendation ever. They gave me a full diagnostic, IN WRITTEN/EMAIL FORM, on all the things my car needed/could be fixed in order from most important to least important. They allowed me to review it and then called me to review it with me in case I had any questions.

Then they allowed me to decide for myself what they should fix. They were financially reasonable and had an easy financing option. These guys were honest and efficient. Thank you for such amazing service, Matthew and crew.

Really good service here. While in the waiting room I saw them deal with some really problematic customers and they called them and made sure to take care of their issues. They help me well and give a good track record of what has been done on my car. I enjoy their user friendly system that lets users know how soon they need to have something replaces (green=good, yellow=needs to be done soon, red=get it done now). They work well with their customers and I look forward to coming here more often (not too often!)
