John and the Team at Car Tender took great care of my vehicle during a recent trip to the coast in Washington. They provide a real local business and authentic approach to their craft. You won t find a more honest place to take your vehicle that will provide the level of value you get at this work...

I have used Car Tender for service on every car I have owned over the past twenty years since I moved to Seattle. I attempted to use Audi of Seattle for a couple of repairs, but they were a far cry from the quality of service and overall experience that Car Tender provides. While not the cheapest ...

CarTender has done routine maintenance and repair on my two now nearly classic (20 years old) BMWs since they were new. The guys at CarTender have come through with really inventive repair work on these cars to fix a couple of unconventional problems when they occurred. The guys are thorough, care...

I saw the full video of the incident at Car Tender. The amount of patience and restraint the owners practiced with that mob was incredible. They never worked on my car but as a fellow mechanic and shop owner on the opposite side of the country I can tell you those are qualities you find in very skil...

Did my 2000 528i. I was surprised they only charged half an hour of shop time to replace a MAF pipe. Seattle places can gouge you but not here. Courtesy inspection was informative and accurate. This is an icon of 12th Ave. I remember my friend going here in the mid 90s and it was an icon then.

Great company - super service, far better value than the dealer and they took a practical approach to solving a problem and doing it for far less cost. Totally reliable. Third time going here and they've been consistent.
Will definitely use them again.

I always thought of Car Tender as being an honest business until I went over records of a vehicle I had recently bought.

You guys charged the owner $370.00 to replace brake fluid in the the reservoir. Not a complete brake flush and not one component was replaced. It is noted as plain as day tha...

The shop works with integrity and were able to take my vehicle in immediately. The staff all seem knowledgeable and friendly. I appreciate the text updates and help working with my insurance company. Thank you for making this an easier process! Great neighborhood shop for my BMW!

Took my car in when the cable that ran from my starter to the batter melted on my exhaust header.

Pros:
The customer service was really good. I was dropped off and when the final repair was done they even drove it to my work. I'm assuming that's not something they did for everyone. More about th...

I have a great time bringing my car to the team at Car Tender. Super friendly and knowledgeable people. I don't know too much about cars, so I appreciate it when they explain what's going on when I bring my VW for a service. I also appreciate how I never feel like I'm being sold things I don't need....

I've been taking my car to the great guys at Car Tender since about 1997. My mechanic of 19 years passed away, and I didn't know where to turn until one day I saw a beautiful 2002 parked in a lot. I wrote the owner a note, asking where she took her car for service, and left it on her windshield. It ...

Car tender was my go-to shop for my 2002 Mercedes C-class. They consistently did better quality work at a lower price than Mercedes dealerships and have some of the best customer service I ve ever experienced from an auto shop. I have since moved out of the area so am no longer a customer, but would...

Very professional, and pleasant to deal with. The place is clean and organized. They are transparent about what is wrong, what they did, and what might need to be done in the future. Definitely did not feel overcharged, or taken advantage of. Even vacuumed and washed the car! I'll definitely be usin...

Car Tender has been the sole tender of my 92 Mercedes for over 15 years. They've done everything from the little to the big and from the easy to the impossible. And at all times with integrity, precision and genuine care. They are not cheap, but they are by far the best! Regardless of what my nex...

Got my seriously ill husband out of the hospital - and found that I had a completely flat tire. I'm not from Seattle and was pretty desperate. Car Tender was pretty close and Wow! I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT THEM! They went way above and beyond and were very, very nice. It's been a long t...

I recently took my vehicle to this place to have a couple of issues fixed. It went in for rear brakes, exhaust leak, tail light, and a new battery. For starters, it came out of the shop with a couple of brand new problems. It now will not accelerate properly, and the accelerator itself has gotten "s...

Car Tender has been taking care of our cars for over 20 years. They are very clear about services needed, costs and time line. They also tell you when Factory Planned Services are not necessary. Can't recommend them highly enough!

I was given an estimate of $700.00 for the work on my BMW - 3 days later when I finally asked if we were still within the $700, they said 'ah no, we are now at $1700.00. I told them to stop all work on the car, and it still took another day to get my car back, and the final bill was $1800.00! they...

I loved how communicative and transparent Paolo was during the whole process. It was great to be able to chat over text, so I didn't have to step away from work for frequent phone calls. Your price for the auto emissions test was a bit steeper than your competitors, but I was willing to pay it bec...
