We have gone to Superior Transmission throughout the years and we have found them to be honest and fair. They are friendly and they let you know exactly what is wrong with your vehicle and they also give honest estimates. They provide exceptional service. I live in Edmonds, so going this far south really speaks highly of their exceptional reliability, honesty and customer service.

I have been going to Superior Automotive for about 3 years and can't say enough good things about it. It is sometimes hard to find a mechanic you like, but these guys are just great. They know my name and what kind of car I have and are always nice and helpful on the phone and in person. They are also timely and accomadating. They do quality work and try to save you money whenever they can. You can tell they aren't trying to rip anyone off. They also have a really comfortable waiting area and a convienient location. I never really do these reviews unless I really like a place, but I think these guys deserve the props.
Pros: Friendly, Professional, Honest

I found the owner to be friendly, honest, and reasonable. I did not feel pressured at all, nor condescended to, as I am obviously not a car buff!! I was charged half of what another repair shop quoted me for the same work. He also identified repairs that were not necessary, that the other shop had said needed to be done.

These guys were the REAL better way to go.
After the competition tried to upsell me (amplifier, subwoofer, etc,), when all I really needed was to replace my blown factory speakers, I decided to check out Stereo Warehouse.
I walked in, and within 5 minutes they had sold me some great, basic replacement speakers without trying to send me home with a whole new system.
Installation went relatively fast. Their waiting area could be a little better, but for the price (installation was almost half of that at the competitors) I am not going to complain much.
The staff is colorful. I was surprised at the expletives, but I didn't care. You may want to leave the kids in the car when you come in. :)
And by the way, my system sounds just fine! Thanks guys!
Pros: Won't try to upsell you, knowledgeable.
Cons: Waiting area, neighborhood.

This company is the WORST!
Was in an emergency accident and the police dispatched them for me. Tow company got lost and was late getting htere.. then proceeded to charge me $150 to be towed 10 blocks.
Equally worse in this time of stress, I had to wait at least 20 minutes for the guy to fill out a VERY small amt of paperwork.

I had the misfortune of having my car broken into over the weekend-- which resulted in a broken driver side window. I have an "old but runs great vehicle" so I was worried that the cost to get the glass replaced would be more than the blue book value of my car.
I was pleasantly surprised when I called Speedy Glass Monday morning and they said they had the glass in stock and could replace it the same day if I could bring by car into their shop-- total cost $230. The car was in by 4:30pm and out by 5:30. It was great to deal with the very nice and happy staff at this place of business.

I called Specialty Auto Care when the employees at Jiffy Lube said I needed a new starter asap, and they couldn't do it for me. I had my brakes done there a couple years ago, and was happy with their service and price. Larry said I could bring my car right in. By the time Jiffy Lube was done with my oil change, my car wouldn't start! I called Larry back and said I'ld be in, but it might be awhile since I'ld have to get a tow from Lake City. He recommended a tow company and their driver was nearby so I didn't have to wait long. The tow company gave me a discount because of my referral and added their charge to my bill at Specialty Auto Care so I only had to pay once. Specialty Auto replaced my starter--which had broken in half!--and fully inspected my car, for free, to advise what other maintenance I will need soon(hopefully I will avoid the tow in the future, by keeping up on maintenance). I appreciated their helpfulness, kindness, and good judgement.

These guys are tops for mechanical aptitude, knowledge and communication. They provided me with fast service at an excellent price. Not only was my bike finished when they said it would be, but they even furnished me with a Quality Control Report which provided an entire inspection of my bike. Where else can you get that? I'm glad to have a shop on the south side that does dependable, reliable and solid work and that is owned by folks I'll enjoy doing business with for years to come.

After purchasing our Explorer, we wanted an overhead DVD player installed. We called Sounds on Wheels and asked what they could recommend. We settled on a Myron & Davis player and they promptly installed it for us. The player never worked right, but my husband and I kept forgetting to call and have it taken care of. We finally did yesterday and they had us bring it in that day. By the following day, they had completely replaced the unit. Now THAT is standing behind a product! I was extremely impressed by their customer service.

They claim they bill "by the job" and are "cheaper than dealers" (nothing to brag about). I went in for an inspection - learned that they charge $97/hour (gulp!) and was later told we needed head gaskets replaced. Their bill for this? $2700!!! Of which $1650 was labor. Oh, and, it took them one 8 hour day. Last time I did the math 8hr * $97/hr = $776, NOT $1600. Well they did vacuum the car and wash the outside (at least a $35 detail job) plus they gave me a "free" blue glass coffee cup with their logo on it. Gee, that must be where my $824 went.
For comparison, a straight head-gasket replacement on a car generally runs $600-$800, so I thought I was looking at $1000 on the outside! I'll wait and see if they cured the mild gas odor and a minor oil leak before I comment on their quality, but it seems like it's a place for Microsoft millionaires and others for whom money is no object. Others, caveat emptor (iwatch you wallet).
