As a former certified technician and a guy that usually does all of his own work, I am absolutely blown away by the professionalism and service here. My lifted 2019 silverado has literally never been right on alignment since I bought it brand new from the dealer. I had it back to them twice and they couldn't fix it to have a straight steering wheel or the clunking in the front end. Over the last 55k miles, Ive had it to two other shops and they couldn't find anything wrong. This shop went through and spent the time to fully inspect and align my truck right for the first time since new. The wheel is straight and the problem the whole time? Loose bolts. No parts to replace, so the other shops just sent me down the road, but these guys did it right! I would recommend anyone to take their vehicles here and trust them to do you right. Thank you A&C I love my truck again!

Before I took my car in the ac was blowing cold air just not as much as I thought it should be. Took it in they quoted me 250 to refill and do a diagnostics. Fine by me. Then they call me and say my compressor is bad and it's gonna be 2600 to fix. Way too expensive. I denied and said I'll just pick my car up and pay for diagnostics 250. They said that's fine. I go a pick my car up and it's blowing nothing but hot air out from ac. I told them that my car was blowing cool air just not as much as it should be before bringing it in and they told me now way is that possible. You need to get the compressor fixed. I'm pretty sure they drained my ac system from all cool air that was in their because I denied their service. Going there was the worst decision I've made.

Friendly and informative. Paying for a tire rotation surprised me. Oil change I thought included the rotation. Now I know.

Brought my vehicle in for a popping and clunking nose in my front suspension. They found it and got an alignment...resolved. Customer service was great, called when vehicle was done. Very important to have solid customer service. Will be back to get struts on my Redline!

Everyone over at A&C autoworks is just amazing. I’m kind of particular about my vehicles and who works on them as I do most of the work myself, sometimes having two crazy jobs is just too much or I need the true professionals to step in and do some of the work and that’s exactly what they are true professionals. I’m very thankful that we have such a capable and caring mechanic shop close to home. Keep up the amazing work and if you’re in the market of needing a mechanic look no further.

I originally got introduced to Malcom and his A&C auto team by my grandpo about 8years ago he has since then worked on All of my cars and now his team has put so much work and dedication to fixing up this old girl a 79 RV Motorhome that I have turned into a mobile barbershop!! His prices and work are the best and I highly recommend to anyone and everyone looking to get their vehicle fixed

This is a family friendly business. Went in for an alignment issue and it ended up being a tire belt separated. They were honest and caring. They could’ve said I had more problems than it did and definitely could’ve taken advantage of me. They did not. They treated me like family. Definitely recommend this place. If you have any Dodge ram issues, they know it all. And they will not nickel and dime you.👍👍👍👍

Won't even give you an estimate over the phone. They want to schedule you a week out. That's a waste of time already especially if you wouldn't do it. Automatic no for me. Any mechanic or legit place should be able to give a rough estimate

This shop seems to cater primarily to generational locals and family friends. Be sure to ask about all charges upfront or consider another local shop that offers free consultations. I brought my car in knowing it needed a valve cover gasket replacement and just wanted a price estimate. They quoted $1,200, which we couldn’t afford. After making a few calls, we found another shop that could do it for much less. When we informed them we’d be picking up the car, they charged us $200 for a test drive and adding power steering fluid. When I questioned the charge, they claimed it was because the car had been there “all day.” I recommend finding a shop that’s more transparent and welcoming to all customers, not just those they know personally. Update- so I went to another mechanic they charged me 175 to replace the gasket.

This place is AWESOME! They got me back on the road After fixing my AC compressor, my alternator, and my serpentine belt all for an after fixing my AC compressor, my alternator, and my serpentine belt all for a very reasonable priceand have a convenient financing option. Kylie (spelling?) was so helpful and found parts for my car at a much lower price than originally anticipated, she kept me updated Throughout the repairs, and when I picked up my vehicle, she explained in laymans terms why each repair was needed. This place was such a nice change from your typical Car repair shop. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A&C Autoworks just fixed my a/c in my 2006 F-150! It was blowing hot when at idle, I was looking at a complete system fix but the tech working on it was able to fix it without replacing the system! I'll always take my vehicles to them!

A&C Auto is, by far, my favorite auto shop! It sucks not knowing a lot about cars (& being a girl) because auto places are always telling you that your car needs more. When I moved to Colorado, the Jeep dealership told me I had a ton of major fixes. I took it into Malcolm after to get an additional quote & he saved me a ton of money! Malcolm is trustworthy & tells you EXACTLY what your car needs. He has the cheapest prices around & he's a good guy. You just can't beat that. I highly recommend taking your vehicle to A&C Auto, regardless if you need a minor or major fix. He's done my oil changes & rebuilt my motor. My Jeep hasn't had any issues since. Very satisfied & forever thankful for the help on my Jeep!

This is a terrible establishment. we brought a car here because we were told they are experts on auto air conditioners. three trips on and $600 later the air conditioner is still broken. It was brought in the first time to find a leak in the system. all they did is put a coolant with a dye into and sent us on our way. said when it leaks out bring it back. The coolant leaks out in two days, if they had tried, drove it around the block and check for leaks they would have found it. They obviously did not, just put coolant in it for $250 and did bring it back when it fails. Brought it back and was told they found the leak and for another $300 they will fix it. Two days later the coolant all leaked out. they told it needs a complete new systme $1,800. when we confronted the owner he yelled at us and resorted to name calling. they obviously do not know what they are doing and wall planing on just keep replacing parts until they got the write one. As far as the $600 we gave them they told us that is just the cost of doing business with them. NEVER NEVER.STAY AWAY.

Brought in my 1979 Chevy short bed truck. It had not run in over 8 years. They did everything I needed to drive it over 300 miles the day I got it out. All at a great price for the work preformed. Malcolm is a great and trustworthy mechanic. Thanks for everything!

I've brought my vehicle in twice this year for different issues and both times I got charged for a diagnostic and then told the issue either can’t be replicated or has resolved itself. In both circumstances I have experienced the issue I paid to have addressed immediately upon retrieving the vehicle. Go elsewhere.

Very responsive team with quick quality work. All services were fully explained before repairs began, and prices were vary fair for the amount of work performed. I would highly recommend their services.

I had my truck in the shop as one of the exhaust manifold bolts broke which was causing an exhaust leak. The job was done on time and I feel the price was fair. I plan on using them in the future as it’s nice to find a shop you trust

I’ll start off by saying these guys are awesome! Kylie made the process quick and painless and they fixed multiple things on my car for way less then what I thought the one thing I needed was gonna cost. I doubt I’ll ever use another mechanic service. They even have a cool shop cat. Definitely worth 5 stars
