Bad car check – I took a truck I wanted to buy to these guys for a buyer's check. They did it, and said I only needed to get a few things done, it was a good buy for the price, etc. So, I bought the truck. Come to find out, only a year later, the transmission is nearly shot. The rotors are almost at their end, the pads are gone. The electrical system is funky. I need a new muffler and tailpipe. And probably other things will arise, as I'm having a new buyer's check done to see if I can afford to keep this piece of junk. I lo... read more

GREAT, honest service on a budget! – I had an outstanding experience with Groovy. Brought in a Mercedes and Steve, the Manager provided me with a quick quote, ordered the necessary parts off the internet cheap, and had it done a few days labor. The work was outstanding, the work honest and true to their word, all he charged me for was the labor...which is a standard, very fair price. I'll be back to Groovy and encourage everyone I know to go there. They make their money off of volume, not overcharging, and I wouldn't take my... read more

Kings of the unnecessary upsell – I've taken my truck exclusively to Groovy Lube and Groovy Automotive for 5 years. I chose them because they are a locally owned, independent business and I felt I could trust them for that reason. After a couple years of oil changes with them, I noticed that at every oil change, they suggested something extra that "needed" to be done. I got suspicious when it was a different "need" at every oil change, and usually the "need" from last time was never brought up again. I had a coupon for cheap... read more

Not recommended – Took a car to them for a mechanic check before buying. They did a hour's job and gave a clean chit for the car with a big report on the good things. I went ahead and bought the car. Few days later one of my friend happened to see the transmission oil quality and said to change it soon as it was black in color. I immediately took it to a dealer to look at it and he told that it was time to change it. Now I started doubting Groovy's report. How could they give such a good report if they could'nt even check th... read more

Thank You Groovy Auto – I took my car in to Groovy Auto on North Larmar the other day. I wasn't sure what to expect becuase I have had bad experiences in the past with other Automotive shops. A friend of mine recomended Groovy to me. I showed up needing my A/C checked out along with an expection. The managers there were very nice and helpfull and being patient with me because when it comes to automotive things I can be a little frustrating. In all, It took a few hours for the inspection and to fix the A/C. They were very cur... read more

shop willing to resolve issues – I got my A/c repaired with them. My I had to take it back 3 times. it was frustrating, but in the end, they were willing to work with me. I believed the problem was a communication issue: they see lots of cars so they aren't going to remember everysingle job. It is important to remind them what you did that way they don't charge your more than necessary. The A/C works so far. It was really nice that they promised to check on it again to make sure there were no leaks. I give them 4 stars for b... read more
