Car Tech auto care - Vancouver (WA)

1 /5 Madison Snaric: Thought this was a trustworthy place. They probably cost me my entire engine (1998 Honda Accord). They did my timing belt and theyve also done every oil change on my car for the past two years. Recently, I started having serious issues — my crankshaft pulley came off twice, and after getting another mechanic to take a look, I was told the crankshaft keyway is completely destroyed, which means the entire engine has to be replaced. This kind of failure doesn’t happen overnight. It’s almost always caused by an improperly torqued crank bolt or misaligned pulley — exactly what Car Tech touched during the timing belt job. Damage like this takes time to show, so the timeline fits. On top of that, they also stripped my oil pan drain plug and blamed “wear and tear." That is not how drain plugs fail. And they have been the ones changing my oil every time, so why didnt they notice it failing during the prior oil change and inform me? I can’t recommend this shop to anyone — especially for major engine or mechanical work.

5 /5 Mark Schrimsher: I just had my timing belt and water pump done and these guys are not only the most honest mechanics I have ever dealt with but theyre prices are the best in town. Call Miguel and he will will take very good care of you. I wont take my vehicles anywhere else

5 /5 Jahquel Pringle: Great service, very helpful staff, affordable and very knowledgeable about cars. The amount of effort these guys put in to ensure their customers are satisfied is phenomenal! Wouldnt go to any other auto shop! Thank you so much Car Tech!

5 /5 Jason Scalf: Amazing work. Ive been leaking coolant for over a year with nowhere that would fix it at a decent price. My father said hes been coming here for years, now I see why. They took me in for a diagnostic with ease and quoted me about 1K under other places. The repair took slightly longer than the quote (due to my own miscommunication and they apologized for MY mistake lol) but still honored their estimated time/labor cost. My rig is now running like a dream thanks to them. Ill be doing all my future repairs here. Peter and Miguel do amazing work, as well as everyone on their team.

5 /5 Dee R: awesome place and very helpful, even if you just have a mechanical question or have a low tire driving by they will help. i dealt with Peter he was awesome. great locally owned business
