All It Takes Auto Care

Great automotive repair shop. My entire family brings their cars here for top notch service. Jeff goes out of his way to make sure his customers are satisfied. He is always willing to do what it takes to make things right. Highly recommend all it takes to anyone looking for a high quality repair shop instead of dealerships that are out to gouge you.

Great guys here. Had a break issue that caused the emergency break cable to come loose. Got out after a few hours and some much needed break pads. The price was fair and I believe honest. I’ll be back.

Take your car here and nowhere else! I have taken 3 different of my cars here to have various work done. I had to replace an oil pan on a Volvo which was quoted to cost me 2,000 at a dealership. I found the part online for 750 $ and then started searching for a shop that would replace it. I found all it takes auto care and was pleasantly surprised when they old me they would do the work of I bring the part in, so many places turned me down because they said they needed to provide the part. If I remember correctly (this was a few years ago) they charged me 200 $ to replace it for me and I was ever so grateful for their work. A couple years passed and I had gotten a Ford Taurus, on my way to work the water pump broke. I called someone to pick me up and take me to work then they had my car towed to all it takes. My mom who brought it there brought coolant and a few other things she new would be needed to complete the job and so they discounted the bill for everything she brought with her that they didn’t have to use. I was more than impressed with them fixing my car that same day before I was even off work and also BLOWN AWAY at the more than fair price I paid. These people are hard working, fair, honest, straightforward and dedicated individuals who happen to bring those qualities all over to the business. Today I took my boyfriends car in to have the belts changed, when I called I thought there were only two belts and was quoted 177 plus tax, when I arrived today there were actually three belts and was told it would be 3 $ cheaper if I did all three (who would pass that up) so I said yes of course they did the work in 45 min and when I was given my total, you won’t believe what happened it was 160 $!!! Cheaper than he even quoted. I was amazed with everything they had done for me and saw their sign for oil change at 35 $ after tax so I asked how much it would be for synthetic blend (I assumed that price was for conventional) BUT it was not for conventional 34 $ for a synthetic blend oil change ??? Holy cow I was so excited and needed the oil changed anyways so I decided to have them do that before I left. This only took them another 10 min I’m pretty sure. To say the least this place goes beyond the words I could use to describe it. They are truly a class of their own when it comes to auto care and I will not take my care anywhere else. I wish I could give them 10 stars. Or 100.

They had THE best customer service experience of any repair shop I’ve been to. Expert knowledge and quick work. My starter quit on me when I was up here from Tacoma. Trying to get home before traffic kicked up, they got everything started before the tow truck even lowered my truck down. Diagnosed the problem and told me the exact amount it would cost. All whole providing confidence and reassuring me that they’d get me on the road in a timely manner. Even suggested a good place to grab a brew and watch some sports while I waited! A+ across the board!

My grandparents’ truck that I was borrowing was in the process of breaking down, right when I borrowed it to move to a new city. Need a mechanic, and fast.
Cue Unilocal.
This place had a solid five-​star rating and really nice reviews I read, so I came on it.
Once you get here, the first thing you’ll notice is the customer service. Which is odd, since, that usually isn’t true, but it certainly is here. I have NEVER met a friendlier person in an auto shop, and that friendliness made me think I chose the right place. When I would call in, it was a warm greeting. When I would show up in person, it was a smile on the face. And you could tell he knew what he was doing, which was great.
I didn’t shop around for prices, but the price here was dead-​on with what I thought it would be. And one thing I really appreciated for the quote was the fact that it included tax and everything. So when I was quoted $ 343, my credit card statement actually came out to $ 342.09. Nothing hidden, the quote was exactly what I paid.
The truck came out fixed, and running just fine. I had a list of most likely problems going in, and it was the middle one. Not ideal, but not as bad as it could be.
Thankfully, I think I’ve found my mechanic.

I have been using All It takes as my regular repair shop for over a year and have been impressed with how friendly, honest and fair they seem to be. All my repairs have been completed quickly and when compared to other estimates have been fairly priced. I also appreciate their frankness when it comes to my repairs. On the downside, I am not impressed with the level of cleanliness and organization of the shop and parking lot, this was nearly enough to send me right back out of their lot. They are also located in a not-​so-​great part of South Everett so don’t leave valuables in your vehicle.

charged me $ 32 to tell me it was a tire issue that they offered to fix for DOUBLE the estimate I got from Les Schwab — PLUS my GPS was stolen while my car was parked in their lot — never going there again!!!

This place has amazing customer service and great prices. I was looking for an alternative to the overpriced stop and go oil change places and happened on All it takes auto care, their prices are really good, $ 24 for a basic oil change, which is how it should be, and they go the extra mile to make sure you’re happy. Can’t beat the service!
