Crilly's Car Cures & Dignstics

The Crilly's have been working on my vehicles since my old mechanic relocated. I own a small business and have a number of trucks & cars of different makes including a couple really old trucks from the 40's. I think the work they do is excellent. They know our trucks are how we make a living & they make a strong effort to keep us on the road and cut the down time. Mike has been working on our vehicles for 10 years or more and has yet to dissappoint me. I believe him to be honest and trustworthy like a boy scout of mechanics. Always professional and straight forward. Plus, my Mom takes her car there and she loves him. Enough said.

I have been a customer of Crilly's with my other vehicles (Toyota Land Crusier & BMW 5 Series) but brought in my Lexus GX470 for this diagnostic & repair. First went to the Lexus Dealer for a routine oil change. The service mgr appeared 90 minutes later with bad news..."Mr. R. I'm afraid your front brakes are in horrendous shape, your calipers are frozen and your rotors are shot. It's a danger to drive. The repair is going to run you about $1700, but he will lend me a car during service. I was traveling that weekend and rented a car. When I returned I called Crilly's. They diagnosed only 2 frozen calipers and an uneven wear to the brake pads but it actually would pass inspection. Crilly's recommended relacing the calipers, pads and rotors very soon (which we scheduled in two weeks), but, get this, at approx. 1/3rd the cost and I'm not talking with cheap replacement parts. I've worked with Crilly's since 2006 and have always been satisfied with their service. This event confirms that I'll be a client for life, even for future oil changes, and even though they are located 25 miles from my home. I'll only return to the Lexus dealer for the free car washes each month. Good luck!
