They did an absolutely amazing job! Living in Utah it is hard to find a good company you can trust and they did just that! They do amazing work and are knowledgeable on modified cars! I will be going back!

Good shop, fair price, solid work - Rod Bearing Service. Took my car in for a rod bearing issue and they did a pretty good job. They explained what needed to be fixed and gave a clear list of parts and repairs. The price they quoted was fair, and there were no surprises. They kept me updated throughout the process and were easy to communicate with, especially when it came to billing and the timeline. So far, the fix has been solid—no issues after getting the car back. Overall, happy with the service. Would go back if I need more work done in the future.

Fantastic service and Josh walked me through the repairs he saw compared to what the dealership had originally quoted. Already recommended to friends and pledging my loyalty

Josh did a great job diagnosing and repairing my old Subaru when it developed a recurring misfire. He specializes in Subarus but I'd trust his knowledge on any car. -Wanted to update (6/25) and say I still highly recommend this place for your Subaru. Thanks always Josh!

Josh did an awesome job, was very professional and got the issue with my car fixed a lot quicker than I was expecting. I’d happily recommend this shop to my friends and family.

Josh and his team were so great! They got my breaks and rotors fixed for me at a very good price. Honest working people over there and explained everything to me! Will definitely be going back for future needs. Also the shop dogs were so sweet and helped me pass the time waiting while playing fetch!

I had been having issues with my Legacy. I went to two shops before I found Flatout Auto. Josh was amazing, he found and fixed them. He is a drive to, but well worth. I cannot say enough good things about Flatout Automotive.

Flatout Automotive removed my blown engine with a JDM Engine. Josh and his team did fantastic work!! I would recommend anyone with a Subaru to have Flatout automotive complete any work needed!!

Flatout is the best! Josh and his team are friendly, professional, thorough, and never pushy. We’ve brought in several cars this year and every visit has been excellent. So glad we found this shop—we’ll likely be customers for years to come!

Although I didn’t get service done here because I ended up having a warranty with the dealership, I extremely appreciate the professionalism and Josh truly going out of his way to accommodate me when he was booked. He explained the repair in depth and reviewed options with me. Just that interaction showed me how genuine and honest he is with his work. I will definitely bookmark this place for future repairs and have already referred him to my subie owning friends

I was purchasing a new car nearby Josh's shop and earlier that morning had called him to see if he could fit me in for a pre-purchase inspection. Josh was very professional on the phone and said he had a couple of openings for that afternoon. His inspection was impressively thorough, and even though the car I was purchasing was not a Subaru, I felt very confident in my later purchase of the vehicle. I would definitely recommend Josh for anyone who's looking for a trustworthy mechanic!

I was in town for a ski trip with some friends and upon arriving to Brighton one morning, my 2015 Subaru Forester had some lights that came on that were alarming. Needing some peace of mind before driving back to Colorado I spent some time researching auto mechanics near where my Airbnb was. After some research I stumbled upon Flatout Automotive and noticed that they specialize in Subarus and was able to book an appointment online for Monday morning at 9am (which I am surprised as Monday’s are typically VERY busy for auto repair shops). Upon arriving I had explained my situation and was met with some bad news. My car needed an R&R cvt transmission valve body replacement. I was notified that there were a few customers ahead of my repair and there was a high chance that it would not be completed until later in the afternoon, thus delaying my departure to get home. I was also met with a steep price for the repair that was needed, but was ok with that as I needed to get home ASAP. The shop was kind enough to get me a Lyft to the library for the day so I could get some work done and hang out until my repair was completed. The repair was made and completed at the end of the day and was able to get back on the road home. I am very pleased with the service from this shop and the employees were kind and very informative of what work needed to be done. Not being from the area, I took a chance after reading previous reviews from other customers and would vouch for this shop for anyone who needs work done on their Subaru. Thanks again for the transparency and would recommend this place to any friends or colleagues in the area!

I had a nightmare situation happen at another shop who apparently didn’t know how to work on Subarus. They blew my front diff, which also took my transmission. Josh was a lifesaver!! He helped me with insurance, and fixed what “the other guys” broke. The repairs did take longer than expected, but we got the car back spic and span. Also, due to Flatouts stellar reputation and incredible reviews; despite this huge service which may shy buyers, it ended up being a positive selling point to sell the car. I highly recommend these guys for any mechanic work. They’re straight up and honest.

I got my ‘18 Outback lifted here and am really satisfied with the results. Josh was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and quickly got me all of the information I needed to make an informed decision when it came to lifting my car. Pricing was extremely fair, especially considering the recommendation of top-of-the-line products. Josh and his team do really great work, and I’ll definitely be taking my vehicles back whenever they need work!

Josh is the man! Service and communication was great. Josh accommodated my (picky) request with a smile and a simple- “I want your car to be how you want it”. He even had to redo some of the work I did and reassured me- “it’s no big deal”. I like working on my own car and am somewhat picky, Josh is the only person I’d let work on my car. Support your local mechanic and if you have a Subaru go see Josh at Flatout Automotive, first class!
