Excellent waiting room. Clean orginized friendly...the time passed quickly and it was an overall enjoyable experience.
Lonsdale Auto works is an excellent shop. I know I'm getting good quality work at a fair price, and I'm not being talked down to or disrespected because I am a female patron. Many other shops try to take advantage of women, and talk down to them. Lonsdale Auto Works does not. They respect each customer for who they are, respect their time and their pocketbook. I will gladly recommend them most highly to everyone I know, and return for maintenence and service.
Barry was especially helpful coordinating my work and explaining my options. Really appreciate being able to drop off and pick up the vehicle after hours. Very impressed at how they were able to do same day service for me.
In the past five years I have had all of my service work done here, and I have always been extremely satisfied.
I was very pleased with the service at this shop and would definitely recommend and return. i was treated with respect and kept informed durring the repair process. I greatly appreciate the work that was done and the professionalism of the shop in general.
They have always treated us and our vehicles with respect and as if we were a member of their family, not just another customer.
Our goal is to provide quality & affordable service, from simple scheduled maintenance to the most complex mechanical repairs. We will make sure your experience will be so great you will want to refer everyone you know to Lonsdale Auto Works.
