This place literally saved my life! Let me explain: I had taken my car to a different mechanic for a pre-trip inspection, as I was planning a 1000-mile road trip with my kids over Spring Break and had noticed a concerning noise coming from my driver's side wheel. This other mechanic did the inspection and told me that it was my belt tensioner which needed replacing but that everything else, including suspension, was fine. I'm so thankful that I got a second opinion from Esty's. Their very kind receptionist said that I could bring my car in, at my convenience, to have it briefly looked at. Their mechanic did a brief inspection of my car, at no cost, and told me that it was actually my ball joint which (really) needed replacing! A ball joint is a big deal, especially when going on a long trip on the freeway with children! Had I taken the advice of the first place, I would have spent $1000+ on an unnecessary repair and still possibly had a wheel fall off on the trip. I'm so grateful to Esty's for their accuracy and integrity. They did a great job on the repair; the concerning wheel noise stopped, and my kids and I made our trip safely. (Another thing: Esty's charged me much less than originally quoted, when they realized that it could be done more cheaply.)
