Asked them to replace a/c compressor. Told us it was something else. $600 down the drain. Turned out it was compressor. They wont credit the 600 mistake.

The battery light came on in our 2006 Honda Odyssey. They were able to diagnose the electrical issue and determined that the alternator had gone bad. They quickly replaced it and got us back on the road. We really appreciated the professionalism, communication, and they saved us some money compared to quotes with other companies. I definitely recommend Bobs service center, and will definitely bring my cars in there from now on.

Grant was lovely to work with, however, we had our van’s AC serviced two weeks ago and it is back to blowing hot air. When we called them, Mike told us that Grant no longer worked there and they won’t touch my van, and hung up. So much for loyalty to a returning customer. I am spreading the word on how terrible their customer service has become.

Grant was great at keeping me in the loop on the price and work needed. The team at Bobs fixed my swagger wagon (Toyota Sienna minivan) and did it quickly and affordable. I’d recommend Bobs!

Went to this shop after having some issues with my last one, and I was pleasantly surprised! Very quick yet efficient and the service and employees are both very kind! The man at the front desk (Grant I believe) was very nice and outlined everything they had done to a T. Will be going back, highly recommended.

Bob’s is great at what they do. Cardiac recommended a tire rotation, but the Bob’s guys checked it out and found it wasn’t needed. Through this and all my previous experiences, I know I can trust these guys to do what is right.

I stopped in at Bobs Service Center to inquire about having my Lexus GX 470 transmission flushed. I was greeted by Grant Smith (manager) who told me about their Toyota certified mechanic, the process they used as well as the products. I felt both assured and comfortable so I set the appointment. After dropping my vehicle off, it seemed that it was only minutes that Grant called me to say the job was completed and I could pick up it up. I looked over the interior to make sure there were no greasy hand prints like Ive found after services elsewhere....it was clean as a whistle! The transmission is smooth as silk! I was so satisfied that my wife suggested we should take her Subaru to them for the timing belt / water pump service. It goes in this Friday.Bottom line is this; Grant and his crew truly care about doing the job once and to your complete satisfaction! I enthusiastically recommend Bobs Service Center!

Probably the best service center in Spokane.Grant and his team are 100 percent honest. There pricing is incredibly reasonable and on top of that they go above and beyond to ensure customers are safe and well informed.

They did a computer reprogramming for me 15 min later all the lights came on. They said they could get me back in in a week? Then told me I needed another new part with a harness? Napa said no such part? So I called jeep they said no such part? Did not fix my problem and are taking me for a ride. But not in my broken jeep!

OUTSTANDING SERVICE!!! Grant Smith is a man of outstanding integrity that will insure that the work needed is completed on time and within affordability. The repair staff is beyond excellent with guaranteed results. Im age 75, with numerous years of oops repair facilities and I can assure you that Bobs is the best ever for automotive maintenance and repair. Grant will get the job done right.

WOW! A friend told me Bob’s was trustworthy and I was not disappointed. As someone who doesn’t know much about cars and is weary of sketchy mechanics I can say Bob’s exceeded my expectations by so much. They got me the best deal they could on a big repair, worked with me and explained my options, and even gave me a ride home. Flexible, the friendliest and most honest staff, and a welcoming environment. I can’t recommend them enough.

Overall my experience with this service center was great. They had my vehicle back to me when they promised they would. Friendly and helpful staff. Dude even put in the effort to save my wallet $500. I couldn’t be happier and won’t think twice about returning to Bob’s for service!

We bought a used Volkswagen EOS and immediately had air-conditioning problems. I was looking on line for some place close to the house for A/C repairs. Bob’s Service Center, four blocks from home came up. I stopped by the shop and talked to Grant. He explained they were experienced in Volkswagen repairs. I scheduled the repair and it was completed quicker and less cost than they estimated. I have since used them for major repairs on my Volkswagen Touareg and service on both vehicles. We are very pleased with the service we receive. It troubles me to think that I have been buying gas and propane there for close to 50 years and never used their service. That haschanged now.

We love Bobs. They have worked on both of our cars. When you stop in or call Bobs you get genuine service, which is hard to find these days. Theyre honest about what you need done and what can wait. They do a fantastic job of quoting and completing work on time. When I bought my car I started noticing oil leaking in my garage about a week later. I called and took it to Bobs. It turned out to just be a drain plug, but they looked the car over and went above and beyond a normal inspection. I trust them with my cars and I feel good supporting this local shop.

I love this place so much. Grant is such a wonderful mechanic and people person. He is always honest and straight forward with pricing and repairs. Local owned family and they just do it right. I wont go anywhere else. I trust my car will always be taken care of and I will never be lied to! They will forever have my business.

Review №26

During my visit to Spokane from Seattle for a family emergency, my car’s thermostat was stuck shut and led to my engine almost blowing up but not quite but definitely causing damage throughout the engine and bursting a rather important pipe. When my car began overheating excessively I was conveniently parked in the lot next to this Bob’s Service Center... I met with Grant who I think could see how stressed I was by this incident and he not only professionally assisted me by getting my car in the shop within minutes to have it diagnosed but he was also just a good and much needed friend in that time of need by reassuring me that it could’ve been worse and that it’s going to be alright. Within a few days he fixed my Audi which isn’t even mentioned as a vehicle they specialize on according to their website and got me back on my way to Seattle and so I give Grant and his stellar team major props for that. On top of it all he even fixed it for a few hundred less than the original quote which was great.I can’t thank you guys enough over there and anyone would be wise to use your fantastic business for their auto needs.

I left it up to him since hes a mechanic and boy was I not wrong in giving my car to these guys. They went beyond the call of duty lol and Im so glad they got it back up and running.

Ive had my car serviced / repaired at Bobs Service Center three times now. Theyve always done a great job and been fair. The most recent experience was just this last week, my car steering was acting weird and was having a hard time turning. I dropped it off Tuesday afternoon, and by the next day, they had it fixed. Apparently the power steering pump had come loose. Grant was my mechanic and he did an excellent job. Super nice and provided an awesome experience. Would recommend to all my friends. And R&R Heating where I work, gets all our vans & trucks serviced here.

I never took my car in, and I cant believe I dont remember who I talked to, but I was having major problems with my Honda and was looking at a new engine. The gentleman I talked to, just to find out where their limitations were on car work, gave me a lot of good information on where I can go, great people who know Hondas in and out. I am super grateful just for the information I learned from him.Whoever you are, thank you!

Had a bad experience at another service center. Bob’s service center figured out what the problem was, gave an estimate, and completed the job on time. I feel so comfortable dealing with such a professional outfit l will never take my car anywhere else. Friendly clean and very professional. I didn’t feel like they were taking advantage of someone that doesn’t know anything about a car, but where the gas goes.

It was my pleasure to meet shop manager Grant today. Both he and Mr. Aaron James, by far, the most professional in their demeanor and decorum combined with up-to-date auto expertise. Been a patron for over 20 years and the one thing which consistently stands out by Bobs is the quality of employees they hire especially the unsung heroes, the hard-working mechanics.

I dropped my car off on Thursday, thursday... All I needed was new window regulator. 15 dollar part. They held my car clear till tuesday claiming the part was not in and then tried to charge for a diagnosis when we already Knew what the issue was. The window had simply fell off the tracks. They had lost all the screws and pieces to hold my panel to the door. Highly unprofessional and now I am having to spend more money to replace what they lost while taking it to another shop. Super disappointed.

Since many of us don’t understand auto mechanics, the customer management position requires a balance of mechanical knowledge and customer handling. It must be difficult to get the job done properly and keep the car owner informed and happy. Grant did an excellent job - he kept me informed and I felt fairly treated. And best of all, my truck feels brand new again.Great job guys!

These guys are pretty great. Had some issues with my Buick and I brought it in Monday morning and it was done that night.

Bobs is the best car repair shop I have been to. Thomas and all of the crew have gone above and beyond to help me out with my car and all the many problems it turned up.

Went in for one issue but when they did an inspection they found a more pressing problem that needed immediate attention. They recommended that I not drive my car home even though it was late on a Friday and they wouldnt be able to get to it until Monday. They got me a taxi ride home that day, offered to get me a rental and kept in contact with me throughout the whole repair process. Got the job done for a fair price, too. Have not had an issue with the repairs that they have done.I would recommend them to all my friends and family.

My sun roof broke by being opened this winter when it was freezing and I was able to get it shut at the time but it make some very bad noise in the process. This spring I accidentally opened it again and it would no longer shut. With the big rains coming Aaron was able to get it into the shop that day. The diagnoses was the track inside the sunroof was broken.... I had indicated that if they could get it shut and sealed I would be happy as I knew the expense of replacement was out of my budget. With the hour of diagnoses time along with another half hour to get it put back together and shut I was back on the road with minimal expense. They were able to pull the fuse as well so I cant make the same mistake again. All in all I received great service and for a fair price... they really saved the day!

An incredible, ethical, and talented shop. I had an expensive repair done here recently, but what has impressed me more has been the fantastic service Ive received since: a last minute fix to get my car starting again (where they repaired my battery instead of selling me a new one), a free diagnosis and fix on a terrifying noise under the hood of my car, fluid top offs, and an unflagging sense that they would do whatever was necessary to keep their client happy and attended to. These guys are awesome and I wont go anywhere else!

I HIGHLY recommend Bob’s Service Center to anyone in and out of the Spokane area! I live 80 miles away and readily take my vehicles (even once via tow truck) to Bob’s, because I know I get honest and reasonable estimates/billing and top-notch work done on my vehicles. The general manager, Thomas, regularly goes above and beyond what one would expect from a typical service provider, and I believe he hires staff sharing not only his concern for others, but who also have the integrity and desire to provide quality work. The feeling of being viewed as a fellow human being (and far more than just means to a paycheck), as well as the fact that the people at Bob’s keep my vehicles in excellent condition, have earned them my complete trust and loyalty.
