I was happy that the labor charged was less than initially quoted, because the technician was able to do the job quicker. I appreciate the honesty and integrity.

I always leave pleased with the service here. The folks behind the desk are courteous and have a dry wit. They show that they are invested in my patronage by asking about past vehicular problems to make sure they are solved for the long haul. Thank you!

My only disappointment was that I called earlier in the week (Monday to make the oil change appointment, I asked about replacing a bent wheel, which was something that had been discussed months earlier but I had deferred until now. I never heard back and had to ask about it when I came in - I don't know if it would have been able to be done on Thursday, when I had the service done, had the research had been done on Monday, but it would have been nice not to have to make two trips. All said, I love the shop and the people - I actually look forward to having my car serviced (and yes, I do have a life ...) This was one relatively small issue amidst many great experiences.

Confirmed work would be done same day before bringing car in, disappointed to get a call midday that it would not be done(Friday). Was happy that loaner cars were available - I wish I didn't have to make the extra trip to pick up the loaner. But it all worked out just fine.

William and Wes are great at setting up appointments, communicating diagnoses, and seeing repair projects through. I haven't had much contact with techs, but they seem to know what they're doing and how to fix things. I've used these guys for 3 years, and my father has gone to them for the previous 25-30 years. I wouldn't think of taking my car anywhere else.

You had such skill in diagnosing what was going on with my beloved 1998 Honda Civic (stick shift)! I am grateful to be able to keep this car for so long and have it be working so very well. I appreciate the help and expertise of Alexander's Imports - and the friendly welcome I've gotten for many years when I walk in the door or call on the phone. Though this last round (actually 2 appointments) was a bit expensive, it was worth it to be able to keep my dear car and be safe when I drive it. Thank you!

I really appreciate finding this shop to service my Mercedes GLK. I plan to have this car awhile and am confident that Alexander's will help me do so. It was easy and quick to get in for my appointment. I got a FREE loaner. I went in for just an oil change but then got the call that I needed my 60,000 check up, so that took a little longer. I was able to keep the loaner all weekend. I have complete confidence in this shop and appreciate their good service, friendly faces, and LOANERS!!!! Thanks for everything.

They found and fixed a couple things I wouldn't have noticed, which was great. I think there was a miscommunication about the service I wanted, though, since I had requested an oil change and also a 15,000 mile maintenance but it doesn't look like the 15,000 mile maintenance was performed or billed for, which is fine, I'll just try again next time.

Pleasant, prompt, reasonably priced. I didn't know until this year that you could store my offseason wheels for me. That's really handy for me (with a small garage). Thanks!

Happy with the service. The only suggestion that I have is that upon dropoff, it would have been nice to know generally how quickly the job was going to be done. I think it was only 1-2 hours (8-10 a.m.). Had I known, I could have stayed closer to the area instead of heading home and coming back - and avoided some minor expenses to and fro.

Always so helpful and informative at Alexanders! They do a great job of walking me through what needs to get repaired and if there are multiple ways to tackle the project they explain which is the best method and never push the more expensive path, unless that happens to be the best fix. Highly recommend these guys, they know what they're doing!
