Helpful Staff

I knew I needed a new battery terminal and some other work done and found this place online. The staff was friendly and willing/able to answer my questions. They took care of the job I needed today and provided a detailed breakdown of what's to come. Thank You

BUSTED! CROOKS!

I too used to think this was a “good” shop, with an “honest” mechanic. I took my Jeep to them with a SIMPLE clutch problem. The rod fell out of my clutch master cylinder and needed replacing, the clutch needed replacing as well, I didn’t feel like crawling around under my Jeep for 2 days wrestling with my transmission by myself so I thought, I’ll just let Litchfield Auto Repair do it. A week later they call me to say my Jeep is ready. They told me there was grinding in reverse. I’m thinking they are talking about that little bit of grinding you get shifting into reverse sometimes so I go pick it up. Pay the almost $3,000 bill (they replaced a head too) and head out. Go to the store and when I go to back out of my parking space it won’t go into reverse at all, as if i was attempting to shift into gear WITHOUT using the clutch! It was not going into reverse. Now I knew it had to be a problem with the clutch because the clutch pedal feels spongy and it’s HALFWAY to the floor. Obviously, since my transmission was working just as it should before the clutch job, and the feel of the pedal, and the grinding in reverse is an obvious indication of a clutch issue, and most likely means there’s air in the hydraulic clutch system. So after the Christmas holidays I take it back to them and say “Something’s not right, the pedal’s halfway to the floor and I could get in reverse just fine before they replaced the clutch”. They tell me fine they’ll look at it again. Another WEEK goes by I go pick it up. No change. Still no reverse. So by this time I realize they are not going to fix it. I drive it home and tell my girlfriend that I am going to fix it and I am going to take it back up there and confront them with it but that I wanted my girlfriend to go with me because I want...

Auto Repair

Excellent Customer Service and Pricing for routine work done on my vehicle today. This Garage was suggested to me by Church members of Palm Valley Community Church.

This is the place to go to...

Great customer service, excellent communication, fair, honest, and amazing to work with. I spent two months, 5 visits and over $600 at a dealership to fix my differential in my Toyota Tacoma to no avail. I was told that I had to replace my entire rear differential because they couldn't fix the leak. I found Litchfield Auto Repair online and after reading all the reviews I went for an estimate. Not only did they fix it quickly, cost effectively and with step by step communication all along the way, but they provided me with proof of mistakes made at the dealership so I could get my money back from that dealership. I will never go to another mechanic again. Phil the owner personally worked with me and was meticulous in the work and with how my vehicle looked upon pickup. Great place. You won't regret it.

Good Star Service

I've been to this shop on three occasions and had excellent experiences each time. They checked over everything and helped me prioritize what my budget could handle now and what could wait a little longer. I really appreciate their willingness to answer questions, their fair pricing and fabulous customer service! A definite recommendation to family/ friends!

Honest and true shop

This place rocks very honest in there work and wont do work just to make a buck like other shops. Phil is the lead guy and is very helpful with the whole process.

Work with you

Very friendly mechanics at this family-owned operation who actually are willing to help work within your budget while still affording the same great service! They were a blessing to find when I did while I'm out on the road. I wish I lived in the Goodyear area just so they could be my go-to-mechanic for all things!

Outstanding Auto Service

Great auto service experience. Totally happy with workmanship. All work done right the first time. Excellent service, quality work, and fair pricing. A mechanic who truly listens ... and treats you right!!!

Honest

It's true "At Least There Is One Fair & Honest Mechanic" I came in to get a price for cooling system maintenance, Phil said it wasn't necessary. Saved me at least $100. They won't sell you a repair or service you don't need. I had a small repair done another time, and it was done fast and at a fair price. NO extra charges. Friendly customer service and clean waiting room. .

Oustanding Experience

This past week I had to have some work done to my vehicle. Without a doubt, my experience at Litchfield Auto Repair could not have been better. I quickly found that there's a reason why they have nothing but the highest ratings. They are extremely professional, honest, and very accomodating. It's the only place I'll ever use again. If you find that you're in the unfortunate situation of needing a repair, try them. Like me, I think you'll be glad you did.

The great team at Litchfield auto repair.

I have been going here since a few months after they opened. I had always gone to the dealership for anything on my camaro or sierra. After my first visit I knew I would never go anywhere else but here. I have gone here multiple times from big repairs to an oil change. Every time I go the quote I am given is always much lower than the dealership quote would be. Now with that lower quote in no means relates to a sub standard repair. In fact I have always experienced the opposite with the repairs they have performed. When they are done with the repair the price has always been within 20 dollars of what I was quoted on for the repair. They also stick to their work I had the drivers window motor/regulator replaced on my camaro. Within 1 month it had slowed down and then died. I brought it back and they replaced it with no cost to me. The next one died with a month also. I brought it back and this time they put a more expensive motor/regulator in the camaro. Again no cost to me and it has been working great for almost a year with no problems. The customer service is my favorite part besides the cost. Whenever I have had a question about a repair or anything else auto related they can answer it and explain it to me right there. So if you are looking for a great place to get anything done vehicle related go here and be a satisfied customer.

Honest and fast

We've taken both of our cars here and both times we've had excellent and incredibly fast service. They replaced the entire AC system on my wife's car in one day and for a great price. They also replaced all the belts on my car in one day and again for a great price. Great to finally have an honest, well priced mechanic!

ONLY AUTO SHOP I WILL GO TO FROM NOW ON

I WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE NOW THAT I'VE BEEN HERE!!! What else can I say about these guys but their shop is one of a kind. Fast, efficient, friendly, helpful, and definitely are NOT there to rip off their customers.I had some work done by a previous mechanic at another shop and was having some check engine light issues after the work was performed. Looked these guys up on Yelp and thought I'd give them a try after seeing the great reviews. Spoke with Tamra who was extremely nice and got me in as soon as she could. When I first got there I was greeted by the owner Phil. I let him know of my problem and he ran a free Diagnostics check (which by the way I've never heard of any shop doing). After some searching he found out that my spark plug wires were bad, all of which I was told by the pre-mentioned previous mechanic were replaced. He gave me an absolutely fair estimate but knowing a little bit about cars I decided to change them myself. He told me good luck and sent me on my way, did not try and upsell anything to me (which as you know with auto shops is quite rare). Upon replacing the spark plug wires, one of them was so bad it fell apart when tugging on it. Needless to say got those replaced but the check engine light issue still remained. Called up Litchfield Auto and again Tamra squeezed me in ASAP. Got there the second time and Phil and his mechanics again started a free Diagnostics on the car, mind you they closed at 6pm and I showed up about 4pm. Upon further inspection, he told me that the spark plug wires were crossed and fixed them, handed me my keys, again at no charge and told me have a great day. I couldn't believe the great service at this point so I MYSELF asked him to charge me a labor fee for these guys working on my car for hours between both of the days I took it there. Long story short these guys are EXCELLENT. I have never been to a shop that is this clean and that is actually concerned about retaining loyal customers and not just how much money they can squeeze out of you. Like I said before I know a little bit about cars and Phil and his staff are one of a kind. He took the time to talk with me about the issues and explain how things work with the car so we could be on the same page and never did I once feel like he was out to get me. THEIR DETERMINATION TO FIND THE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR WAS OUTSTANDING!!!!I will DEFINITELY recommend this shop to anyone I know and will go there for all my auto needs.Thanks again guys for being there for the customer!!!!

Door handle broken?

took car to Litchfield Auto for 2nd opinion. instead of an opinion, i got the job done in 1 hr. went a my regular auto shop (that i wasn't all that happy with) and a service mgr (they have 2) looked at the problem and said i needed a new door handle. litchfield auto looked at the door handle and said it might be mis-aligned. they were right, the other guys were wrong. Litchfield Auto is my new repair guy. Quick, honest and friendly. Oh and my wife likes them, enough said.

Excellent

I had my Jeep inspected by Breaks Plus and they wanted to charge me a an arm and a leg to try and fix something. I went to Litchfield Auto Repair, where I'm going to for all services now, and after there Free inspection of the same problem I had, they made my day by telling me what it was. Breaks Plus and another place wanted to try and sell me an overhaul bearing kit for the rear differential, but all needed was the right type of gear oil. They saved me and my wallet. They are now my primary Go To place with all mechanical troubles.

THE BEST IN SERVICE AND PRICES

If you pass this HONEST wonderful place by to get work done on your car, you are making the worst decision! From the minute you walk in the door, you are treated special, as if you are the ONLY customer that matters. Phil comes out explains in detail what needs to be done and what he has done. When they say "Honest Mechanic" they mean JUST THAT! PLEASE... STOP your search for a mechanic RIGHT HERE! And do me a favor.. Tell them Joy Coppola sent you...
