Bolder Auto

I highly recommend this place! Most auto places steal your money and lie. This place has always been so honest and caring towards me. Check this place out! They really know what they are doing.

I would NOT trust these guys either. A family member referred me to them saying that the were honest and fair. I was lied to by PHIL (the owner) about what was wrong with my vehicle and he charged me an additional $ 500 above his initial «estimate». I will never take another vehicle back to Phil at Boulder Auto and will be recommending as many Boulder residents to stay away as well. This place is your typical dishonest repair shop that will try anything to charge you more and more and more.

I would totally recommend Bolder Auto. I went to Bolder Auto after I was complaining to my friend about another shop (that wasn’t calling me back as they said they would when the part was supposed to come in). My friend said she just recommended to go to Bolder Auto so she took her son’s car to Bolder Auto and they were fair, reasonable, and did an excellent job. I called Bolder Auto and got my car in and they did a great job. They fixed the car and charged me quite a bit less than Boulder Toyota had quoted me. Looks like I just found me a new mechanic in Boulder.

I thought they were good and honest people but it turns out they are scammers.
Phil told me my timing belt needed to get replaced and it was barely even safe to drive. I asked if he had ever done that work on my car before and he said had only ever done my front brakes. After going into a mild panic and finding a lower estimate than he gave for the timing belt and getting it done as soon as possible, a week later I found a receipt from Bolder Auto from only 10,000 miles earlier. On that invoice was a timing belt and brakes. If he had the records for the brakes, he lied just to sell me a timing belt.
Well it’s against the law to not retain customers records for 3 years — which he tried saying later. It’s also against the law to tell someone that their car is in a dangerous condition (if I drove my timing belt would go any second), when it is not (and a timing belt with 10,000 miles IS NOT dangerous). Among a few other things.
DON’T TRUST THEM!

These guys are awesome, I have been taking my vehicles here for years and they always do a great job for a great price. They seem to work on anything that drives up to the shop, regardless of make or year. everyone there really knows their stuff and they are actually there to help, not to take as much money as possible
