Al's Car Care has been my go-to shop for over 20 years.

Started bringing my car here because my parents brought their cars here. They always do excellent work.

My car broke down suddenly and Al’s got me fixed up in a few days! Communication as to what they found and what had to be done was phenomenal. I have my car back and a plan to get minor issues fixed to keep me on the road! 10/10 always going to Al’s!

A couple years back the engine in my Mustang blew up. Al's replaced the engine and clutch and they've been great. More recently, the clutch in my Wrangler JK went bad. They replaced the clutch and found a coolant leak at the head. All fixed, all good. I bring all my vehicle problems here. Thank you!

I had these guys do numerous things to my 20 year old truck that needed all kinds of stuff as far as maintainance is concerned. I had a list of things I knew needed done and some things I didn't know until they showed me me and explained what else needed attention. I do a lot of my own maintainable but for some things I leave to the pros. They have always treated me fair when it comes to pricing and have bailed both me and my wife out more than once when we broke down on the road and even did the repairs on the spot in some cases. These guys are top flight in my book and I always refer my friends to them when they need stuff done to their vehicles. A Plus Plus!

I was a mechanic threw high school and college. After college I was the Service Director at a new vehicle franchise. Then for 27 years I owned my own Chevrolet Buick Pontiac GMC dealership. So when I 5 star Al’s Car Care I am highly experienced. After I sold my dealership I encourage 15 previous customers who contacted me to go to Al’s Car Care. Enthusiastically yours, KR Reinschmidt

They did a great job. They stayed in the range I was quoted.

Excellent service. Every time I've had an issue, they promptly check it out, and if repairs are needed, their prices are among the most reasonable I've been quoted. I highly recommend this shop to anyone seeking a quality mechanic.

They are constantly trying to upsale the situation, but everyone is hurting financially right now. They did a great job

They found the problem with my vehicle and fixed it in no time

They said it cost me all most $900 to fix my brakes. Les schwab did it for $342 that a huge difference in price.

Alternator replacement. Got me in early, stayed in touch. Repaired as requested, on time and exactly as quoted. Best independent shop in Boise.

Before the major work was done on my 2002 f150 truck and agree on the cost. The technician step me through the finding and the work it needed. Erin and Richard were professional and knowledgeable when it comes F150. Outstanding service! First time using Al car care and glad I did. Overall, the staffs are friendly and great customer service. Thank you, Diane and Chris!

I called in to see if they could do a job on my rear differential where the fill plug has been stripped by a previous owner. Dianna said they could. Quoted me a price which was in line from another shops quote. Turned out to be an easier job then thought and charged me half of what the original quote was. The honesty will definitely have me going back. Thanks Al's team!

Diana is the best. I met her the second day I was in Idaho over 7 years ago and she was not only helpful, she actually listened to what my concerns were. Al’s Car Care is my go to repair shop. This visit they located issue with car, called and quoted repair price which was accurate and was a few dollars less than quoted. Also mentioned other potential issues that might arise for us to be aware of. We appreciate the openness of what needs to be done, what was done, as well as info for our safety going forward.

Honest and knowledgeable staff.

I felt bad for calling a lot to figure things out for what I was needing done, and Diana was nothing but the BEST person to help walk me through everything!

The mechanic did amazing work on our 24 year old excursion. The front desk was a great experience with knowledge, patience, honestly and even gave us a lower price than the original quote. I'm happy to report that there are still business with old school integrity.
