| Here is the number one reason to take your car to Kevin's shop...he is honest! I trust him 100% and I also appreciate the great service. He cares about his customers and I recommend his shop to all my friends. |
| Shop Comment Thank you Andrea for taking the time to post your review. Thank you also for the many referalls you have given us! |

| We have been taking our vehicles to Kevin for a number of years now. Nothing but exceptional service! |
|
|
| A little expensive but they did a great job and got the vehicle back quickly. Very friendly staff. |
|
|
| Thanks for taking care of my vehicle. Always accommodating and love that you have a loaner car. Thanks for the free car wash - that is a really nice addition to your services. Thank you |
|
|
| Great service. Repairs done on time. |
|
|
| Good work. Done in a timely matter. I have to take one star off because it?s hard to breakdown the invoice between labour and parts. |

| Thank you for the fantastic service getting my vehicle inspected. Being new to Alberta it?s always good to find a reputable auto shop that you can trust. All the people there were so helpful and took the time to explain everything they found. They have a great hoist out front that they can put your car up on and show the customer. Had to work out a few kinks but got everything resolved ;) also got my winter tires installed and they did a great job with alignment and my car drives great. Thanks and will definitely be back. |

| Good service, but parts were pricey. For example, I was charged $400 for the exact same (same brand, same product #) timing belt kit that retails for $160 online/in stores. I have no qualms with paying a fair price for labour, but paying a 2.5x markup on the retail price of a product feels unfair. |

|
| Courteous, efficient, knowledgeable and timely service. |

| Moved to Calgary 2 and a half years ago and was lucky enough to find this garage. Trustworthy which is very important. It hard to find a good garage with excellent service. Highly recommend. |

| The team at southwest auto service were very helpful with my out of province inspection. They got it done very quick and were very precise. Would recommend! |

| Southwest Auto is always friendly and prompt. They are good about telling me what they need to do on my vehicle and getting the work done when they say they will get it done. Clean and convenient too. |

| I've been coming here a long time. I have always appreciated their honesty. Setting priority of what must be fixed and what can wait. I send my friends here and they are treated with the same respect. |
|
|
| This is an excellent auto service company and great to deal with. Their pricing is fair and their quotes are accurate. The only reason why I did not give them 5 stars is because there is no shuttle service. |
|
|
| Great customer service and work was done in a timely manner. |

|
| Thanks guys... you were very honest, and professional during my service. I will be returning for my next service. |

| The service is great here however, I do find it expensive. $200 to change tires is steep! |
|
|
| Quick honest work. But very expensive. I had had the same work done on 3 other GM vehicles, and it cost me 200$ more here. But its location is convenient. |

|
| Great job on the flat tire. You didn't put the spare back properly so it has been rattling around in the back for a week. I'll have to pull it out and put it back in properly. |

|
| They gave me decent service, and told me ahead of time what the cost was for the parts and labour before proceeding which I really appreciate. The only issue was waiting around for hours and hours to get the part they needed to fix my car in, again I understood but doesn't help me out. I'm also having the issue again with my headlights and hoping they'll fix, again... |
|
|
| I was quoted $4000 for repairs here and got it done for $1500 at another shop. |

|
| Encouraged to pay for diagnosis, and when I asked what the diagnosis was afterwards there was very little done outside of what I said was wrong. Discovered two broken clips in cowling after work was done at this shop. |
|
|
| The cost for a diagnosis/overview was far too high compared to other auto service shops. |

| Untrustworthy and will take advantage of you. I got my car inspected here as it had been idling funny for a while and then was running quite loudly (had driven it on rough roads). I was charged way too much to even have it inspected (From what I can remember it was $200-$300)...Then I get a call, 15 mins before they closed (so I couldn't pick my car up) and they told me it was going to cost me $3000 to do the repairs on a car that cost me $2000. I told him to wait to do the work and I needed to think about it and he told me my car wasn't operable and it wouldn't be safe to drive and wouldn't be available for pickup until the next day. I called him back the next morning and asked him if he thought it was worth doing the work or if I should just sell it for parts. He told me I should get the work done and either sell it or keep driving it and I wouldn't get any money for parts and wouldn't be able to drive it as is. I then decided to get a second AND third opinion and paid for the overpriced inspection and took my car back. Turns out I only needed a new belt ($55) and a quick welding job (under $50). SO I nearly spent $3000 on work that was NOT necessary. I think they took advantage of me because I am a young female who came in alone. Not trust worthy and clearly just want to make $$. |

| Had an oil change and inspection of vehicle. Upon receipt of my vehicle oil was not on dipstick and the inspection paperwork was weak and had far less information than they had talked on phone. Why do an inspection and withhold information. Friendly service but obviously not the service i expected when paying for it. |
|
|
| Went for an out of province inspection and got quoted 1000 dollars more than a trusted mechanic. These guys are just trying to make a quick buck. |
