Based on a friend's referral, I visited Living the Dream Auto Care yesterday for the first time, needing an oil change for the used car I purchased in Sept. Bill was SO helpful recommending repairs that were needed and should've been taken care of by dealer before the sale. Thanks to his expertise and estimate provided I was able to get the dealer to make the needed repairs. Everyone I interacted with during my visit was professional and friendly. I'll definitely be returning!

I was a little hesitant as it was my first time there and had been "taken advantage of" by others... To my amazement and appreciation, the truck was gone over with a fine tooth comb and issues stated before any work done. My approval was needed and upon completion, a complimentary wash and vacuum. Now that I have it back it is almost brand new (I need a few more items to take care of next time)... I will return to them and "pass the word" of my experience with them... Thank you for your honesty and integrity!

I have used their services, mainly oil changes, for over 6 months now, and they have always been polite and receptive. Offered text & email updates and diagnostics are helpful!

Julie at front desk is still great, but service has definitely declined. Took Audi in for oil change and left with engine light on. Technician reset light and said if it comes back on, light should go off after driving it for a while. Next morning car was dead. Was told I could take it in right away. While waiting in shop for 5 hours, heard at least 2 other customers who had previously been in for oil change bringing cars back due to dashboard light issues. Ultimately was told that my car all of sudden needs over$1,0000 in new parts and repairs for issue that wasn t there before I brought car in. Missed whole day of work for nothing. Tried to stay loyal to shop, but commute, service, and prices not worth it anymoreService: Oil change

I was recommended by a co-worker, so I took my car in for tune up, rear brakes, Driver side rotor and basic maintenance. I love the way they send you the information, easily to understand and actually see who everyone was involved and what they do, the pictures of the problem and the break down.They have a customer for life now, and I have already talked to my daughter and her boyfriend, they both plan on taking their cars there.Only thing is I wish they would have asked if I had triple A because I have it but didn't know of the benefits through them for Triple A

Replaced 2 tires and did alignment in April, it works well and what's better than Costco is they have a waiting room and you can have a private seat to either work or relax and they completed in around1 hour. Replaced all the brakes due to the mileages just now with reasonable price compared to dealer's.Pros: price/quality/waiting roomServices: Tires, General repairs & maintenance, Wheel alignment, Brakes

6 months ago my 2017 Kia Sorento had a serious problem with what I now know was a fuel injection/piston failure. 5 months without my car and two dealerships later (the car was still under warranty) my car needed an electrical issue resolved caused by the first dealership in their attempt to fix my car. The second dealership was unable to find and resolve the electrical issue.I called Living The Dream and have been so happy that I did! The staff took time to understand everything that my car had been through over the past 5 months. They sent texts and emails about progress and they found and fixed the electrical issue - in a single day!!! My car no longer had random electrical issues preventing me from driving it!I have also had a 37,500 mile checkup done at Living The Dream and again, so very happy with the service! Bringing my car to them is one of the best decisions I have made. I highly recommend them!!! Now that I've found them, no one else will will touch my car!!!!

Took my vehicle here upon referral for a new battery, met with Bill who explained the process of diagnostics after hearing my vehicle concerns. He later found me in their posh/comfortable waiting area showing me on paper the results and cost to repair in a discreet and private manner of which I humbly appreciated. When my vehicle was ready shortly after Julie let me know and processed my closing receipt. I couldn't asked for a more relaxed experience with my vehicle. Im safely on the road again, Thanks to "Living The Dream Auto Care".

I brought my 2016 Subaru WRX in for repairs. I bought my own parts from Subaru Dealership. My AC stopped working after my compressor seized and was replaced. I was told by a previous shop that replaced the compressor that I would probably need a new condenser eventually so I was ready for that repair. I've also been having an oil leak for the past year. My oil pan was always wet but never dripping to the floor wet. I was told that it could be valve cover gasket. I finally decided to get it fixed because when I changed the spark plugs there was some oil in the well and on the spark plug. When I brought it in.. the mechanic was not convinced it was the gasket because the engine was relatively dry and could not directly trace the leak to the gasket/seals from the outside. He did a more thorough inspection and attributed the the leak to the passenger side spark plugs that was not completely torqued down. He only checked set of spark plugs on the passenger side and initially did not recommend changing out the gasket/seals. I was persistent and asked them to check the other side. The other side had more oil in it and they replaced the gasket after that. I hope that after this experience they will have a better process to diagnose.Their practice/business model is the best I've experienced so far. They keep you updated via text with estimates and progress. They will take photos to show you what's going on. They are easily reachable for questioning. Their prices are fair. There's a complimentary car wash after the repair. I appreciate them taking me seriously despite initially not recommend doing the work. That is a hard pill to swallow for some professionals. As of right now I would return for future repairs. I need a shop I can trust and so far this hits the mark. I don't feel like they're trying to rip me off here. Even with gasket/seal repair they were trying to save me some money which I also appreciate. Truly a professional shop. Thank youServices: Auto A/C recharge, A/C installation & repair

The crew at Living The Dream Auto Care did a wonderful job figuring out a difficult issue with my car not starting. I had to bring my car back as the mysterious issue happened again but this time the crew was able to mimic what occurred and solve the issue for good, without additional charge. They also gave me a loaner car for the time they were working on my Mazda. Special thanks to Bill the mechanic and Evelyn the receptionist.Service: General repairs & maintenance

Dropped my car off after hours with no heads-up. Expected them to maybe get to look at it the next day. I received a full vehicle inspection report the next morning over text with detailed descriptions and high quality pictures demonstrating what needed to be fixed. Prompt and professional all the way through. The work was finished and paid by the time I got home and I was able to drive right out the lot. No human interaction needed. Beautiful.Fair pricing, great service.Service: General repairs & maintenance

I decided to bring my Maserati to Living the Dream instead of paying the Ridiculous Price the Dealership wants for an Oil Change! They took the car in on time and kept me informed along the way.. In addition to the Oil Change they did a bunch of Safety Checks etc to ensure the car was running properly... They did an Excellent Job and Saved me a couple hundred Dollars! Will Definitely go back for Oil Change and Other Services! Highly Recommended!

I showed up late to my scheduled appointment and Julie told me don't worry about it. She was very accommodating and informative about the services my car required. I was texted a report of repairs for review and asked to call to finalize the repairs to be done on my car. Julie addressed the recommended services to the air filter and cabin air filter, informing me I could wait and when the best time to have them replaced. She even applied a mail coupon discount to my oil change. I liked the breakdown of services and price and felt very secure with the whole experience.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Brakes, Auto interior vacuuming, Oil change

I have been using Living the Dream Auto Care for my auto needs for some time now. I took my Saab for an oil change recently. on short notice and needed the car back by a certain time. Not only did they do the oil change, but also checked over the entire care for any potential problems and offered recommendations on what they believe needs to be taken care of. The car was done exactly on the time that I needed it. Paul Pasquale checks in periodically with his customers and it makes you realize that he and his staff really care about their customer's needs. The atmosphere is welcoming, friendly and everyone is very helpful. If you are looking for good customer service and satisfaction, I recommend you give Living the Dream a try.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Oil change

Service at Ltdac has always been a positive experience. From discussing service needs and scheduling, to having the work completed, staff is consistently pleasant, professional, and accommodating. Work is reliably and competently performed, completed in a timely manner, and any issues or questions that may arise are quickly addressed and resolved. If you present a situation that requires a more immediate response, they will work to accommodate you even if busy. The complimentary wash and vacuum is also appreciated, as is the comfortable waiting area.Services: Auto battery replacement, General repairs & maintenance, Tire rotations, Vehicle safety inspection, Oil change

I am so thankful to have found Living the Dream for my 2005 Honda Odyssey with 211,000 miles. I brought it to them with a check engine light issue after seeing other great reviews. They did a complete diagnosis and report for me to assess all of its needs and costs. They replaced misfiring spark plugs and cleaned the fuel injectors and the fuel economy immediately increased by 33% from 15 mpg to 21 mpg. They replaced my front brakes which had only 1mm of pad left and the brakes now feel like new. Each time they washed my car before I got it back. My car has new life! Over the next few months I will be replacing other worn and tired parts, including a second timing belt on my way to 300,000 miles. How many people keep a car so long they get to replace the timing belt twice? It is so nice to fully trust an auto repair company as I do. They are very friendly, the facility is clean and modern, the prices are honest and without a doubt, they receive my highest recommendation.Services: Carburetor cleaning, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic, Brakes, Auto interior vacuuming

I called to see if they could get my car in for an inspection and Bill was friendly and extremely helpful - told me to come on by and it would be only 15-20 minutes. I was down the street so that was ideal. I arrived and as I walked in the door Bill greeted me and took care of the paperwork. My car was finished within the next 20 minutes and I was back on the road. HIGHLY recommend this business ! :)Service: Vehicle safety inspection

They provide a thorough and detailed analysis of your auto complete with pictures prior to performing the work. They communicate throughout the process whether that be via text, phone or email. Always direct and pleasant to deal with. Cannot recommend them enough.

I wouldn't bring my car anywhere besides Living the Dream. A few years ago, I bought a used 2007 Mazda 6 and started taking it to Living the Dream whenever anything came up. Living the Dream always got me an appointment to drop my car off at a time that worked for me. On multiple occasions, they gave me rides home, or gave me a car to use to take to work while repairs were being done on my car.What I love most about Living the Dream is their commitment to honesty. They don't try to sell you services that your car does not need, and they are completely transparent about what is going on with your car. A while back, they promised me that they would let me know when my car was no longer putting work into. After several thousands of dollars in repairs, last week they were honest in telling me that my car needed a new transmission and was no longer worth the continued expenses. I trust them with everything. They even have a lounge area and cubicles in the back that I have used on several occasions to do work and write papers at Living the Dream while they would work on my car. I couldn't say enough great things about how they have treated me and how they are ALWAYS ready to help with a smile and genuine concern for how you are doing and what they can do for you.Chris, Paul, and Julie are all amazing people to talk to and do business with. They truly care about you and your car. Next time you need a repair, an inspection, an oil change, or a diagnostic, please go to Living the Dream!Services: Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Brakes, Auto interior vacuuming, Oil change

I've been bringing my car here for about 5 years, and I've stopped going anywhere else. It's always a pleasant experience to work with people who are trustworthy and know what they're doing. I also like that it's a small shop, which means there are fewer layers of people to go through when you need to get more information.Services: Exhaust, Vehicle Inspection, Air conditioning, Auto maintenanceServices: Exhaust, Vehicle Inspection, Air conditioning, Auto maintenance
