I brought my car into Stress-Free Auto Care for a routine oil change and tire rotation. Instead, I was told I had an oil leak and that my front lower control arm bushings were torn and needed replacement. My car only had 37,000 miles on it, so I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being taken for a ride. The inspection report flagged the bushing issue in red, which pressured me into agreeing to the repair. I ended up spending a staggering $2,580. This was my first time visiting this shop--I usually go to the Subaru dealer... read more

Business response:

I never want a customer to leave our shop with any uncertainty about their repairs. That’s why we include detailed photos in every inspection report—to clearly identify any areas of concern or failure, just like the ones we provided to you. We stand behind every repair recommendation with visual evidence, because unlike some repair shops, we prioritize full transparency from start to finish. If you’d like to go over your repair order or inspection report, I’d be happy to discuss it with you at your convenience. You can reac... read more

Let's start off with what car I have, 2016 Honda Civic 1.5L Turbo. For the past four years or so I used an online mechanic that would come to your location, home or work. I was very happy with his service and detail. This year that company was bought out and the new company changed the way they did business. Even my mechanic left the company. So I decided to find a new mechanic. So I searched Yelp. There were a few choices, after a little research I decided to go with Stress Free Auto Care. I had to wait for the car to c... read more

Called to get a quote for low tire pressure light is on. Was told the vehicle needs to diagnose and fee is $123 which is already 50% off. The place is a scam 

Business response:

We understand your concern, but just to clarify: air checks are always free at Stress-Free Auto Care — no appointment needed. However, if your low tire pressure light remains on even after tires are properly inflated, that points to a possible issue with the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), which requires a proper diagnostic. We can't afford to work for free, and our $123 diagnostic fee (already discounted 50%) covers the time, tools, and expertise needed to accurately identify the problem. We're transparent with our... read more

I never posted negative comments online for any business. I had to say every thing has its first. This is truly a very crooked place. They accepted my Yelp oil change/tire rotation request via email on Tue. (5/20/2025). A lady called me very next day and confirmed an appointment on Friday. During the phone conversation, she was offering so many other unrelated services that made me very uncomfortable already. During next a couple of days, they kept texting me for the confirmation and reminder of the Friday appointment. When ... read more

Business response:

Called in asked for a quote. Was told that the vehicle must be diagnosed and the diagnosis fee would be a flat rate of $245. I then asked if the diagnosis fee would be credited towards the job itself and I was told that it would not. Lastly, I inquired about their hourly repair fee and the representative reiterated that the HOURLY RATE IS $245 AN HOUR! Don't waste your time going to a shop that isn't aligned with the fair market repair rates.
