I came upon this shop because my Honda Odyssey happened to break down nearby (alternator seized over a year ago). Even though I felt it was on the pricey side (but everything in the Denver area seems that way) and definitely a little far from my house, I decided to come back here when my van was making a very weird and concerning noise. One of the electric fans for the radiator was shot (bearings out and wobbling, which was making a loud noise), and the power steering system was taking in air. Following these repairs, they could then hear a concerning noise coming from the timing system (which I believe is what I was hearing from the start). They figured out pretty quickly that the hydraulic tensioner was failing, so I had a complete timing belt job done (unfortunately, about 25K-30K miles too soon, but it is what it is). What I really appreciated is that they keep and show their customers all of the old parts when you come in to pay. In summary, I believe these folks do excellent work and they are trustworthy. It is still probably a little on the pricey side, but they do offer some peace of mind parts/labor warranty with the work they do. They did work with me to offer a small bundle discount as well for all of the work I had them do. They were persistent to ultimately find the problem I was hearing, which could have cost me way more in the long run if I didn't address it soon. I drove almost 1,200 miles without a hitch the weekend following the work they did. Quick shout out to Greg as well. He communicated everything to me very well, and was pro-active in doing so. He was very knowledgeable, patient, helpful, and easy to work with.
Thank you for appreciating what we do, David. Your heartfelt review means the world to our team, and we look forward to seeing you next time. :-)
