After calling a few places around looking for help with my flat tire, Apex was the only place that was willing to help! They were very nice & quickly got the job done. They’re also very adorable. I definitely recommend Apex & will be going there in the future for any car repairs. Thank you so much for helping!

These guys helped me out a lot when I was in a tough spot, family owned and totally trusted by the community!

I took my car here a couple years ago for a 100,000 mile maintenance. I paid for it and trusted that they did it, but here I am with Ford quoting me nearly 10k in repairs due to the maintenance not being done properly(or really at all). I’ve taken the car to three separate mechanics (including the ford dealer) They all said the rear differential is shot. Which is a 4.5k repair and all of them said all the gear oils were severely burnt. (Diffs, transmission, transfer case) Meaning this place never actually did the maintenance that I paid them to do. The car has only gone 20,000 miles since they (supposedly) did the maintenance and now crucial parts are failing due to this dishonest mechanic. (Ford quoted me nearly $10,000 in repairs claiming that both differentials were shot due to lack of maintenance) I will never trust anyone with my car again and I would DEFINITELY recommend staying clear of this place.

REVIEW - Sept. 2017 I'm pretty disappointed with the integrity of Your Import Car Doctor. I took my 2002 Toyota in for an oil change, 4-tire rotation, and inspection of an odd whirring-like noise that was coming from my car. The manager, John, seemed friendly to me & this place had great reviews, so I trusted them. When John called me back, he said the noise I was hearing was from my left & right axles "having excessive play" (which is also written a couple times on the itemized list he gave me) & needed to be replaced "ASAP." Each axle cost $387 a piece to fix, not including labor. Upon hearing this, I decided to give my dad a call, who has been a reputable mechanic for 25+ YEARS. Because it would be $500 cheaper to buy the parts & have family fix my car, my dad bought 2 new axles and arranged for me to drive several hours to AJ, who is a trusted friend of the family. My dad is 1,200 miles away from me; otherwise I would have immediately gone to him for my car issues. AJ was done in an HOUR. Turns out, the noise I was hearing was NOT coming from my axles; it was coming from this huge piece of plastic jetted up somewhere near the top of the wheel. That's it! This piece of plastic was not inconspicuous by any means & was "not something that could have been missed by a mechanic who knew what he/she was doing" (his words). Both of my axles were FINE & did NOT need to be replaced as soon as possible. AJ had NO IDEA why it was recommended they be replaced ASAP. I don't hear the noise anymore after AJ removed that piece of plastic, so my problem is solved! If I went through with having both my axles replaced, I would've paid over $770 to get a repair done that I didn't even need. (My dad paid ~$100 for both the axles to be shipped, when clearly he didn't need to purchase them, but hopefully we can return those.) I expected great things from this business. Sure, they provide coffee & doughnuts. Sure, the waiting area is homey. But, when all is said and done, these things are trivial & say nothing about the integrity of a business. The unfortunate truth is that many auto shops take advantage of car-naïve individuals & seems to happen especially to women. I didn't think Your Import Car Doctor was one of those sketchy places that took advantage of its customers, but I guess I was wrong. UPDATE - 12/24/17: I initially posted my review back in September (Sept. 30th), so I'm a bit shocked that Your Import Car Doc responded to my review merely a week ago... Nevertheless, I will address some of the bizarre statements made in his response. • The "phone messages" I assume are referring to the ONE phone call I received from John several days after I posted my review. John stated he saw my review & asked me to call back. I did not return this (one) phone call because I did not want to give Your Import Car Doc more of my business or time. • I was not standing over AJ as he fixed my car (duh) & this happened back in Sept, so I do not have the specific details on WHERE this piece of plastic was lodged... But I'm sure I could reach out to AJ via email & ask him for those specifics. • I think it's pretty obvious by now that the noise I was hearing was coming EXCLUSIVELY from that piece of plastic. The reason I went to Your Import Car Doc in the FIRST place was because I was hearing this whirring/grinding noise. Thus, it is IMPOSSIBLE I "picked up some debris" on the way to AJs; I heard this noise BEFORE I went to AJs & BEFORE I went to Your Import Car Doc. As soon as AJ removed this piece of plastic, the noise I heard was completely GONE. • There was never a "clicking" noise?? • Sure, I appreciate the new axles gesture, but I didn't need new axles to begin with... Yes, my brakes are a bit squeaky, but my car is still running completely fine, just as it was before without that plastic.

Again, I have to give a shout out to Randy and his crew. I own a 2012 lifted 6.7 diesel F250 that had numerous front steering and other issues. I had Apex A& T diagnose and repair the issues and Wow!!! what a difference. My truck has never driven as well as it does now. Thank you so much Apex! This is a trustworthy honest competent facility.

Glo-plug replacement. Scanned error codes myself and brought in, but shop charged for duplicate diagnostics (-1). After replacing plugs, same error codes returned, plus a new one (-1) while driving home! Shop was stumped, and owner suggested that this work might be covered by a recall (+1) after the initial "repair" was completed (-1). Obtained second opinion from dealer service mechanics, and turns out this shop damaged the head of one the glo-plugs they replaced (-2). Although the owner did offer to make it right (+1), I took it to the dealer instead. For that reason, my four cars and I will not be returning.

Got me in quickly paid attention to detail and was a blessing in a stressful situation. I appreciate you getting me in it’s my first time and this is definitely going to be my permanent car shop in the springs.

These Guys got me in quickly repaired my car and off I went. Also I watched them fix a ladies tire for free on a snowy day, got her on her way.

This is a reputable Business!!! Again, Randy and his crew have never disappointed us. Outstanding workmanship, very honest and quite reasonable. We've been doing business with Randy for about 15 years.

Apex - truck & Auto Repair! Been bringing our cars to Randy for years! Excellent mechanic! Update 10/10/22 Still very happy at Apex, they recently added a fence around the playground out back. Perfect if you have littles and it's nice out. My 6 year old wanted to come with me for my oil change to come play. See photos of the play area.

Great service, great price. You can trust Randy and his mechanics.

I love this place. It's not the cheapest, but they are fair and honest - that's more important to me when I'm looking for a mechanic. I won't be looking again until the owner retires. I've sent my family and friends to him. Update: Still going here. Still the best. My car has 331,000 miles on it and it's still going strong because they take such good care of my car.

I thought I had already gave a review. I realized I didn't. Everyone needs to know the owner is awesome and figured out an electrical problem on my son's old car. Very reasonably priced. He is busy so you might have to wait a bit for an appointment, but having a good mechanic, is worth the wait. Thank you for your expertise and work ethics. Very much appreciated.

Went to Apex Auto for an oil leak on my Jeep that was diagnosed by another auto mechanic business to confirm. Talked to Randy and had them check it out. He said everything was good and that I did not need any repairs. I felt Apex Auto was very honest and not looking to just make a buck. Will definitely use them in the future for any repair needs.

All I can say is that these people deserve more business! Broke down I made it there and got me out the next day with new water pump
Dec 06, 2021
My car suddenly began breaking down and I drove to the closest auto shop, I’m so glad that I ended up here! Randy is such a kind and genuine person, and he was so quick to get me fixed up for an extremely reasonable price. I’ll absolutely be coming back :-)

Randy is a rare gem as an honest, no-BS mechanic. They can do anything in their shop. He does the regular maintenance for us and we've trusted him for the last nine years. The shop also does auto-body, electrical work, a/c, and I *believe* everything else you could imagine for your vehicle. They've even got a fabrication shop on site. Shop moved from our neighborhood this last year and we still make the trip for all our maintenance/repair needs. Randy gives honest, candid assessments and helps you decide the best, most affordable course of action for your brand new vehicles or your 13-year-old pickup.

Randy fixed my brake sensor for the price of the part he had lying around from the 90s. I would trust him with my life.

This auto shop was a lifesaver. In passing through Colorado on my way to North Carolina my vehicle started making a noise. Saturday morning I took it to Randy at Tech center he quickly diagnosed the issue as my driveshaft needed replaced. Jeep stop making them last year. Randy found a place to rebuild it and still get it back to me the same day as it was critical to get back on the road. He also followed up several days later to ensure all worked properly and the drive to NC went smoothly. They are honest people doing great work.
