Are You Kidding Me?!!? After reading the reviews of this place - my instinct-too good to be true. However I'm now WRITING a review to extol the virtues of Loyola Marina Auto Care. Paul & his team have a PASSION for cars! This was clear from the moment I stepped out of my car... a 2018 Nissan Altima Hybrid with over 258,000 miles! Knowing there could be any number of presenting issues, I was afraid that I would get quoted for multiple big ticket issues. To the contrary, the diagnostic check was less than the other independent dealer under consideration. (The other shop as of this writing has yet to return my call.) Paul took the vehicle in for diagnostics and called a few hours later. Paul disclosed that the LMAC team worked to SALVAGE potentially costly parts that appeared to still be usable! (No, we're not talking recycling brake rotors). Loyola Marina Auto Care is an old school, values driven repair shop. The team was fast, communicative, and honest! This is the type of business that I am reluctant writing a good review for - because I want it to be my secret - for fear that others will hone in on what a great shop this is and destroy everything that makes this place special. Then again, I don't think Paul & team would let success overtake their values. Thank you Paul - Loyola Marina Auto Care is truly an extraordinary business. -Don
Donny, honest, value-driven work is the only kind of work you can expect from our shop. Sometimes a vehicle's individual components can be brought back into operation with a little extra tinkering and we're always happy to do it when we can. High-mileage vehicles like your Altima can have a number of things start to fail at once, but they don't always need to be replaced. Thank you for choosing our shop to take care of your vehicle. I'm happy to see that we've gained such a friendly and appreciative customer. -Tim C., Vice President
