Get a second opinion before going here. Not open on the weekends, which is a negative right off the bat. Additionally, I have brought my truck there on 3 different occasions, and each time the same problem has either returned or was never really fixed to begin with. I guess I'm partially at fault for continuing to go back to them, but I would expect more out of a professional shop. They are at least friendly and courteous when you deal with them, which is a big plus, but it also gives you a false sense of security that they're taking good care of you. It also leads me to my last point. I strongly feel that 100% of their business and any positive ratings are based on friendships and neighborhood loyalists. I hear people all over the area recommend Kar Hospital, which is also why I felt like I should keep giving them a chance, but when you look into who those recommendations come from, they're all friends or longtime neighbors and so on. This shop should stick to oil changes and inspection stickers. You're better off going across the street to Ella Auto Care.

Tried this place, based on reviews but now not sure about them. I came in during the morning, brought donuts for the staff and asked if someone can test drive my car. I explained my car problem in the front left side and that I already rotated the tires around just in case it was maybe my tires but it stays in same area. They lifted my car and said it was my tires. The donuts ? Nobody touched them.

I brought my Jeep in for some issues accelerating and starting. Very professional and knowledgeable. They were able to quickly identify the issue and repair for a reasonable cost. I will definitely be back again!!

These guys do the inspections and oil changes on my wife's minivan and get it done quickly which she really appreciates. I was working on the car recently and noticed that they had fixed a broken clamp securing the CV joint boot. I had noticed it before then forgot about it; they fixed it for free likely saving us the cost of a new driveshaft. The staff are always very pleasant and we feel they are a good business.

Quickly diagnosed my issue free of charge. Extremely friendly staff as well, made me feel right at home. Turns out I only had a bad tire so they didn't charge and sent me on my way. I'll be back certainly when I need work done.

I came in based on the recommendation of Metro Collision nearby, for an inspection of my car before a cross country drive. I was seen immediately and my inspection was done in fifteen minutes - for free! There's a nice enough waiting room and a very pleasant woman at the front desk. I just finished the cross country drive without a hitch, and then sold my car for more than I'd thought it was worth. Great place.

Great mechanic who is both quick and honest in his work, and stands behind what he does. Also offers a10 percent AAA discount. Had never charged me a diagnostic fee. I recommend him to everyone

Two things everyone hates in life: 1. Going to the dentist; 2. going in for car repairs. This place is a very rare breed. You can go for an oil change and not have to say no to a thousand upsale attempts like the national chains. You can schedule an appointment to avoid waiting hours at the shop in the hope you will get seen like at some other places. Unlike some car places, I don't feel like they are trying to take advantage of my lack of knowledge on some of the fixes. I recall specifically one time I took my wife's car to a Goodyear for an oil change and they presented me with a list of over $2,000 of things to do. Goodyear said I needed new fluids even though my mother-in-law had them changed right before she gave us her old car. For that and many other reasons, Kar Hospital is my go to.

My family and I have been going to Kar Hospital for about 30 years. They are good quality shop and are honest. They're good about telling you whether the work is needed to be done immediately or if it's something you can schedule. They are very upfront about everything. I highly recommend them for regular maintenance and major repairs.

Will schedule myself on Monday to bring vehicle in for what I need, customer service is awesome,thus far I'll see what comes. Oh by the way, in the past I've worked on my own vehicles but now....well I'll forgo the expenses even though I've informed the service representative my clear knowledge of vehicles so again I'll see when I the service is done then I'll see..........

A good mechanic is as important in your life as a good doctor or dentist. The folks at Kar Hospital are that important to me. They are great, they do good work at a reasonable price, they're honest and reliable, and they are genuinely nice people. I trust my cars to no one else.

Was super impressed with the professionalism and service that I received recently. I brought my vehicle in because there was what appeared to be an oil leak. Turned out it was a loose oil pan. It was tightened, the oil was changed and I had my annual inspection conducted. It was refreshing not to be “upsold”. Will definitely return.

This is literally the best mechanic shop that I have ever been to! Alicia is AMAZING & Mr. Derek & Arturo are AWESOME! THEY have been working on my van since I have had it. And, I must say that their work is OUTSTANDING!! They are reasonable, reliable and simply very, very PROFESSIONAL! If you ever need good and honest mechanics that you can depend on, call Alicia on the phone, set up an appointment and visit Kar Hospital! Trust me, you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

What a refreshingly friendly, welcoming, professional, speedy service! Took my truck in to have an issue looked at. Short test drive with me to demonstrate the issue, great communication and honest amount of work done. I would highly recommend these guys. They are local and I will definitely be going back to them when I need anything done to my truck. Thank you!

Our favorite inspection place shut down. We were nervous about branching out to find someone else. Alicia was so nice and welcoming! They took care of us quickly and effectively. Super easy. We found our new spot and if we have car trouble, this will be our spot too!
