Mechanically Inclined Auto

Today when they needed to keep my car longer than expected, they gave me a ride to work! Amazing customer service, fair pricing and fast repairs. Great shop!

I took my 2004 Pontiac Aztec in with a bad squeak coming from the front of the car. I did probably the worst thing you could do when having your car worked on. I told them what my budget was before I even got an estimate. I also asked them to look it over to see if it needed anything else. They had every chance to screw me but didn’t even attempt to. They found a few other minor things that needed to be done. I had quite a bit of my budget left so I had them do a couple of other things that I wanted done including putting a trailer hitch on. Everyone there was as friendly as can be even when I got impatient and called asking how the work was going several times before the time they told me it would be ready. Friendly, knowledgeable and 100% integrity describes everyone there. I couldn’t possibly give them a higher recommendation. Maybe it was because I had them do so much to it, but they even gave me a small discount. If you need your auto worked on, GO HERE!!!

Wow. Never expected such great service and such a great price. We’d had an estimate done a year earlier that was 2 – 300 more than what ME charged us AND they changed the oil to boot!
We love supporting neighborhood businesses and I’m proud to have Mechanically Inclined in our hood.
Work was done quickly and I look forward to having our regular maintenance and work on another car done there in the future.
Thanks!

This place is awesome! We’ve taken my husband’s Land Rover here several times in the past year. They are honest people with great prices. I’ve never trusted any mechanic shop before until now.

I’ve never had strong positive feelings about a mechanic before, but I love this place. They do their jobs well, they’re incredibly nice people, and they genuinely care about their customers.
One concern people tend to have about mechanics is that they’ll try to rip you off. Mechanically Inclined is incredibly reasonable with their prices. Every time we’ve brought our Honda here we are amazed at how low the bill is (we usually overestimate the cost by at least 40%). Not only that but they go above and beyond to try to save us money. They’ve actually brought me into the garage to show me how to replace headlights so I can take care of it myself in the future (which I’ve now done).
The main reason I like them is that their customer service is amazing. They have given my wife or I rides back to our house when we’ve dropped the car off to get work done. They have actually closed up their shop to drive our car over to our house and deliver it to us. Each time we go in there they recognize us, remember everything we talked about the last time we were there and carry on the conversation like they see us regularly (we only stop by every 4 – 6 months and they’ve been doing this since we started bringing our car here a year and a half ago. It’s not as if we’re personal friends, just customers).
I’m really glad that we’ve found a place like this to take our cars to. It makes car problems and the expenses that go along with them a lot more bearable and pleasant.

These guys still rock. I’ve continued to get my regular car maintenance here, and I’ve had a couple weird problems come up (broken door actuator and two tires with faulty seal thingies) that they’ve taken care of as well. Ted is always so helpful and willing to explain any repairs or car physiology to me.
What I love most about them, though, is the customer service. I only stop by about once every six months, but they still know me by name and face. Cheryl, the office manager, is always courteous and happy to help. They’re willing to drop you back off at your house. One time, in fact, they closed down the shop and actually drove my car back to my house after it was serviced so that I didn’t have to come pick it up. Just recently they hosted a give-​back-​to-​the-​community event that involved an outdoor movie screening, bonfire, food trucks, and partnerships with local vendors.
Really, I just can’t get enough of these guys. I love how close they are to my house, but it’s just icing on the cake that they provide such excellent work and customer service.

I can only tell you that this has been, and continues to be, the best experience I have ever had with anything to do with car maintenance. Ted takes care of my van like it’s his own baby and I recommend his work to anyone that will listen.
You won’t regret it.
Take your car, truck, van, motorcycle or bus here…

I know absolutely nothing about cars, and I like it that way. If I could ride my bike everywhere all year ’round I would. Unfortunately this is not an option.
So when a light pops up on my dash I know one of 2 things: I need to get my oil changed or I need to call AAA. Luckily for me this time I just needed my oil changed. In the past I have always just gone to Jiffy Lube but I always feel like they do a half-​ass job and end up replacing things that don’t necessarily need to be changed.
So, I did the most logical thing and asked my fellow Unilocalers for the best place to go, and they once again led me in the right direction!
Mechanically Inclined was like a breath of fresh air. It was like being back in my hometown. The receptionist was so pleasant and gave me a great restaurant recommendation that I could walk to while I waited.
Ted, my mechanic, was so friendly. He explained ALL sorts of things to me that I tried really hard to understand. He gave me suggestions about things that I should probably get changed in the future and gave me very legitimate reasons to WHY they needed to be changed.
To top it all off the price was incredibly reasonable!
I can honestly say that I am looking forward to my next oil change. And will definitely be going to them again for any more of my car needs.
