Almost Scammed I took half a day off for a 9 AM appointment to get the oil changed in my Jetta. By 2 PM, the oil had still not been changed. They told me that my brakes were failing and needed to be replaced. The brakes in question were new and had been replaced a month before by Les Schwab across the street. Took the car back to Les Schwab and there wasn't anything wrong with the brakes. Also I ended up taking the entire day off to get my oil changed and averted a scam. Not a place for a woman to trust her car.

Canal Auto - local mechanics works on your vehicles We have used Canal Auto Repair for all our auto and our Motorhomes. They have always been fair and gone out of their way to get us back on the road if we had broken down. If you need local mechanics who are knowledgeable about both autos and RV's, I can personally recommend Canal Automotive Repair.

EXTREMELY UNSATISFACTORY!!! In May 2010 Canal Automotive replaced the clutch in my vechile. Subsequent to the repairs made by Canal Automotive, the transmission in my vehicle failed in August 2010. I took the vehicle to a reputable mechanic and he advised me that it was due to poor workmanship and the use of incorrect parts used by Canal Automotive for the clutch replacement that caused my transmission to then fail. I have requested a copy of my service invoice and they have refused to supply me with the information. I have ... read more
