Greg and Ryan, I just can't thank you enough for helping a "damsel in distress". It's just so nice to know there are honest helpful people in the world. I really appreciate your good service.
Thank you, Zinita Benson
In the past, I have always used the Mercedes dealership mechanics to work on my 2002 Mercedes Benz. One night I had a flat tire and the tow truck driver used the wrong lug nuts on the spare tire. The damage caused to the car required it to be towed to Mercedes for repair. I was told it was not a big problem and that my car would ready that afternoon. Two additional trips to the dealership didn't resolve the noise and irregular brake squeal when turning the vehicle. I even replaced the brakes unnecessarily at their recommendation. I was basically brushed off - they gave me excuses for the noise and I was told it would go away once the brakes seated (?). I decided to take it to Carlsbad Exclusive Auto on the recommendation from an employee from Mercedes.
I called and described the incident to them and they immediately knew that the repairs done on my car were not adequate considering the potential damage that they assumed had occurred. It is not uncommon, I understand, for towing companies to inadvertently use the lugs for the wheel in lieu of the spare tire lugs that fit properly. When I arrived with my car, the guys explained the needed repair, they showed me what they would need to do, and quoted me a fair and honest price. I was amazed and extremely pleased with their customer service and patient explanations.
When I arrived to pick up my car it looked like it came off the showroom floor! The damaged parts were available for viewing, and the bill was as close to the quote as it could get. Unlike my other three bills from the dealership that did not correct the damage. Carlsbad Exclusive Auto is truly a trustworthy and experienced auto repair shop. They listen, evaluate, and more importantly provide expert repair. We recommend Carlsbad Exclusive Auto to all of our friends.

. . . I just wanted to thank you for all of your help with the Benz and hope business is going well and continues to do so.
Thanks again! -Sheila Goodman
