Well this store was the only place i could find someone that actually gave me straight answers. They made me feel like they actually like to work on cars not just take my money. They repaired my mustang it had a damaged axle and several other things. They got the parts ordered and got my car back on the road in a reasonable time. Very satisfied wilhelm and will only go to them when i need a professional.

I have had the opportunity to use their services several times. They do a great job and keep you informed if they run into any unforeseeable issues. Their staff is very personable. I usually make my appointment with Patty who is always nice. I usually deal with Jim at the counter and it is always a pleasant experience. This time they had a new addition to their staff named Max. He is certainly not new to the auto industry as he has a lot of service experience. He certainly fits right in. He has e great personality and is terrific to deal with. Hope not to see these guys too soon for service but its great to know they will be there when I need it! Thanks for always doing a good job! Bill B.

Brought in a 2012 Ford Focus and a 2010 Toyota Camry in for inspection and oil change on 5/6. According to Wilhelm, my Focus passed and all it needed an oil change. My Camry however needed a little bit of work. It needed a right front axle shaft boot and both front lower control arm bushings replaced and align.Got my Focus back the same day while my Camry needed to stay overnight. During my time with my Focus, it didnt start. Weird because the mechanic said everything was fine, battery included. Thats why I only required an oil change. Finally I got it to start with some jumper cables. That wasnt an issue happened before. Didnt think much of it.Now the Camry is a whole different issue. My brother and I picked it up today. All seemed good. As we get on the freeway, all of a sudden the car pulled back hard like it was braking and it brought me down to 40 miles per hour, the traction control light turns on, the ABS light turns on, and the brake light turns on. Luckily my brother was able to get off the freeway safely. Took the car right back and was informed that they have had issues with defective drive shafts and that they will try to fix it right away and required me to leave my car.My concern was that did anyone test drive it afterwards to make sure it was ok? If there was concern for the drive shafts in stock being defective, why continue using them? Luckily nothing happened but it could have been much worse. Now my car is back at the mechanic for who knows how long.Thoroughly inspect your car before leaving and drive normal driving conditions to make sure the car is working properly. Having an issue with one of the two cars might be questionable but an honest mistake. Having two cars come back out worse then they came in? Doesnt make sense. I spent $2,000 on this repair which is a good amount of money.

The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I have a hybrid car so not all shops will work on the high voltage side. They cover the whole car and got me back on the road quickly. This is my new shop for any issue with my car.

This was my first, and sadly my last encounter, not because I had a bad experience, but because I’m moving out of state! Jim and the crew are excellent, very professional and VERY affordable!! If you’re looking for honest and all around great mechanics, look no further!!! I found them for you!!!

Jim was excellent to work with, impeccable customer service. Discussed options regarding the work done on my truck before doing any of it, also went over cost prior to any work being done, Not pushy @ all. Great experience!!

I took in a car that we intended on buying, to have it checked out for overall health. After doing their diagnostics they concluded that the car was not a dependable daily driver and our money would be better spent on a car that was in better shape. They probably saved me a ton of money and many heartaches.Thank you

Needed a new alternator. This was my first experience with Wilhelm and I must say Never.in my 65 years have I experienced outstanding, excellent, over the top, world class customer service. I talked with Patty, Jim and Max. These guys are real stress relievers and get the job done. I was and still am totally impressed with everything about Wilhelm. Nice facility, world- class staff. I have found myself a home for all my future automotive repairs and maintenace.Kathryn Chronister for Michael Anderson

Made an appointment to for oil change on $49.99 coupon. First time there, so I was trying them out as perhaps my new “go to” for maintenance and repairs. I made a special “service while you wait” appointment. The shop looks nice and counter service was cordial. When I got the car back the tire rotation had not been done. This was included in the coupon price and was requested by me and confirmed by the shop when I gave them my keys. The shop was very busy and after an hour and a half wait I just left without the rotation. It wasn’t worth waiting who knows how long for the work to be done. I really feel it was intentionally omitted because of the workload. I am disappointed because I has high hopes for this shop.

Whilhelm is the only auto shop I trust with my cars. They are good honest people! They have taken care of all my cars over the past 13 years and I have only had good experiences with them. They do excellent work, prices are good, and their trustworthiness is the reason I stay with them. I refer all my friends and neighbors to them. You will be glad you chose them!

Just an unbelievable customer service experience. My truck was very dangerous to drive and they got me back on the road the same day.

Took care of my car after I hit something in the road. Was also recommended a body shop by them and when I went to pick up my car to drop it off at their recommended body shop, the sales attendant called ahead to the body shop to let them know I was arriving. When I arrived at the body shop, my file was ready, my information for my insurance was there and I was in the shop no more than 30 seconds. Great customer service!!!

My service advisor Luke did a complete inspection of my Jeep Wrangler that had been out of service for quite a while. He recommended replacing worn parts over the last 24 years and servicing fluids and belts. The Jeep handles like new and will give us years of happy trails!

They have been keeping our 2004 dodge caravan “like new” for the last 5 years. They are reasonable in suggesting fixes that are in our budget and if for some reason it isn’t exactly right the first time they make it right. I highly recommend them.

Jim, Luke and the guys always take care of me and get me in as soon as they can, even though that does usually mean a week or so out. For the type of work that I bring them, which is generally tires or small jobs I am ok with that wait. Stand up guys that dont beat around the bush, thanks again.

We called on a Saturday morning and talked to Jim at the Estrella Parkway location. He was so amazing he managed to look at it the same day and diagnose the issues. The work was completed on Monday in a timely manner. We received the estimate by phone. My car is 12 years old and has few issues. We were pleased with the cost and quality of work.

Review №42

Requested an oil change and tire rotation. They did not perform the rotation as requested. They claimed that it was not necessary because all the tire’s tread depths were the same. I have never heard of this in my life. This may be technically correct, but a spot check of tread wear is not sufficient evidence to avoid a rotation. It seemed kind of silly for them to just not do it while it’s up in the hoist. How long does it take? 10 minutes? I’ve lost a little confidence in this place.

Took my car in for service & inspection. Front desk staff was really nice n friendly. Next day was driving out of town and was stranded due to a bad tire and put my entire family at risk in extreme weather. Had a really hard time getting back to town. This problem should of been detected during the vehicle health inspection. Will definitely not be returning or recommending this shop.

Took car in to confirm work recommended by a dealer, who did not have time to do service; Adam’s team confirmed and, even though very busy on jobs, took the time to do the service that day and complete it….they made time for my car and successfully completed the mission where the dealer didn’t have the time.

I’m been utilizing the services of Wilhelm Automotive for over twenty years and have always been impressed with the professionalism of their employees, the quality of their work and the value they have provided me in maintaining my vehicles over that period of time. I feel more comfortable with Wilhelm than the individual service departments where I’ve purchased those vehicles. In my mind, they set the standard for all local automotive maintenance providers!

Max & Jim were amazing. Jim told me he would be able to store my vehicle until July 7th, when they could diagnose. I had my vehicle towed in before close on June 28th. The following morning, Max called to tell me what was wrong with her, and how much. Max told me they would try and get it done by end of day. Well, they delivered!!!! Same day!Fast, friendly service. I highly recommend Wilhelm!Tracy MacGowan

Review №53

Trustworthy, honest, timely and knowledgeable. Everything you wish you could find in an auto mechanic you WILL find with Wilhelm auto repair! They got our car fixed sooner then anticipated, paid for our rental while it was in the shop and went above and beyond in their care, concern and service to us. I am so glad this is where we coasted into when our car stopped working! We bought a 2016 that suddenly began having transmission issues 3 months after purchasing it. Adam was knowledgeable down to knowing the right smell of the transmission fluid the car dealer used on the car. He gave me a quick report on what was wrong, options for how to fix it and even researched a pending recall the car had to see if the manufacturer would cover the cost. He did so much before seeing any payment from us. He covered the cost of the rental since his guy couldn’t look at it right away but even then, they got it fixed a week earlier than expected and got us back to normal again! I am so glad we rolled into Wilhelm Automotive. They are exactly what a car repair should be and more. Honest, dependable, deliver on their word and even sooner than expected!

Called for a service quote 11 AM and they took my number and would call me back with the quote. Had to call them at 4 PM and they gave me the typical busy excuse for not calling back. Then proceeded to tell me they dont do quotes but would give me a free inspection. Should have told me that when I first called. I personally dont trust anyone that can not tell me what a maintenance issue might cost when I told them exactly what I wanted done. Needless to say, I wont be going there.

I had a wonderful experience this week with Wilhelm. I spoke with Luke, he was very understanding of my situation, and got my truck taken care of quickly. The mechanic (I don’t recall his name) took me to the bay and showed me what was happening with my transmission. He explained the work needed and told me that Luke would get me cost information. They very quick and efficient. The cost for the repair was very reasonable, and they did not try to upsell me. The repair was completed in a very timely manner and allowed me to pick up at my convenience. I recommend this shop for anything you may need done to your vehicle. A great experience from start to finish. You guys rock!

The customer service rep was professional and courteous. I had several issues with my truck and they were responsive with communication bc I had a time crunch for personal business. Although I spent a good chuck of change there my truck is performing even with hauling 800 pound of gear for hundreds of miles. So far, so good. I will return, no questions. Thank you Luke for helping the average Joe.

The good: Very professional, arranged for a ride home while they worked on my car, Extremely clean operation, explained everything they were going to do, very fair price for the services they performed, set expectations. I would recommend.The gray area: They left me with a checklist of the free inspection services they completed. One of the services they indicated they completed was check the psi in all the tires. They entered that all were at 35 psi. When I dropped my car off one tire was at 14 psi and the tire pressure low monitor was lit up. When I picked up my car the same tire was at 14 psi and the dash light was still lit. I believe the mechanic did a great job fixing my oil leak, but I believe he “pencil whipped” the inspection process. All in all I would still recommend.

Review №92

I went in to get my AC checked because it was blowing hot air. I took it in on a Saturday and they couldn’t fix it that day because their AC guy wasn’t in. It was fixed by Monday evening. I didn’t have a problem leaving it over the weekend because I had a ride. I can see how that can be an issue if I didn’t have one though. So I guess the only thing I’d suggest is That they also have an AC person over the weekend as well in case someone can’t keep their car over the weekend. Other than that. They fixed the problem. So far so good. I will update if anything changes. I would recommend them. I loved how nice their waiting area was. It was very clean. They were also very nice and professional.

Review №94

They have wonderful customer service. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is that I was told for the promotion going on that I would receive a free vacuuming of my interior with the oil change and did not get one, and I had to reset my oil life indicator myself which made me second guess that I actually received one. My check engine light was on when it went in and had gone off by the time I picked it up, so whatever they did, my car was pleased.
