👍👍 Great guys and no rip off...they were genuine, trustworthy, thrifty, and efficient. They did what I asked him to at a fair price. They also let my wife drop off the car and gave her a ride to the airport. I'll be back. People often mention Inman, time, coolant, Jeff, light, change, guys, service, work, honest,

    This is the cleanest mechanics I have ever been to! These fellows allow us to arrive a little late in the afternoon to have our battery replaced. Our experience was amazing from start to finish, everything was clear and explained and the battery was replaced remarkably fast. Very impressed and happy.

    Came in with diagnosis from my regular mechanic, Inman basically told me the same thing, when I knew it was deeper electrical issue. I should have taken it straight to Elliotts. Charged $200 for the same diagnosis I came in with and slick talking salesman. Sorry, but not willing to pay the $1600+to change plugs and cables.

    Jeff was easy to work with prompt. My vehicle was available the same day after a milestone inspection and oil change. Jeff was honest and conservative with his recommendation on service and the prices were reasonable. I plan to go back for future needs.

    Inman fixed a serious problem with my 2000 Tundra, It now runs much better. Four other shops, including the Toyota dealer could not find what was wrong. I highly recommend Inman.

    Ethical and well run business! A pleasure to have discovered a business that I will continue to use.

    If I could give this place zero stars then I would. My car has been in the shop for far too long and it feels like they are holding it hostage now with no communication or updates on status. The owner is not responsive at all. Avoid this place at all costs and try any place else.

    The staff were friendly and kept me informed on the progress of the repair. I will be returning for any future repairs needed on any of my cars. They were awesome

    I could tell my battery was dying and I called Jeff to see if they could get me in to replace it, he said to come on over, they were so busy there was hardly a place to pull in and park. I was in and out in 30 minutes with a new battery. I cannot say enough about how well they have taken care of me every time I have needed them.

    I never write reviews but really wanted to share my experience so others can make informed decisions. A few months ago, a coolant warning light turned on in my car. Despite reading some negative reviews on here, there were also a lot of good ones so I figured I’d give them a chance since I live close by and could walk home. The first time I took my car in for an oil change and coolant flush. They called and said I should change my engine filter too for $40. I went with it. Total came out to $195.31. A little over a week later, the same coolant light comes back on. I call the next day and they were nice and said to drop off my car in the morning. They call me later that day and tell me all the things that need to be fixed and quote me over $1500. They also said whoever put coolant in your car put the wrong coolant in. I said you guys did it about a week ago?? My car is supposed to have blue coolant, but they had put in yellow coolant. I was charged a second time for the mistake they made that I had already paid for last time. They play it off like it’s no big deal and say okay we won’t charge you for the coolant pressure test this time. From the $1500 they quoted, I said this is a lot of money for me so what are the things that absolutely need to be fixed (like life or death). This brings the quote down to $1300. They call me again that day and say hey we really want to change your radiator hoses and we should do this instead of the coolant flush to keep the cost down, but now it’s gonna be about $1400. I get my car back later that week on Friday 4/7. I pay $1409.42 and then go to the grocery store a mile away. On my way back, the same coolant light comes on AGAIN. Except now they’re closed for the weekend. I open the hood, there’s less than half of the coolant left and by the next day, it had all leaked out. I call Monday and tell them the coolant light came back on again. I drop my car off for the third time. Aiden calls me and says they found a small leak they “missed” the first time that was coming from the thermostat. Obviously we won’t charge you for the pressure test (I would hope not after paying $1400 for you to not fix the issue last week). We need to replace the thermostat housing/thermostat, hose clamp and upper radiator hose. This will be about $450. I don’t know if they’re making assumptions because I live in the nice apartments next to them (moved here alone last year and chose a nicer apartment for safety), but I’m a resident making a resident salary. Pretty much live paycheck to paycheck. I ask what did I just pay $1400 for because it sounds like none of that work was life or death necessary. I said let me get back to you, I want to call around for estimates. I’m generally a pretty calm person but now a bit frustrated. While on the phone with Ted from Volvo Am I (I drive a Volvo SUV), I get a voicemail from Jeff who I assume is the manager saying that Aiden’s estimate was wrong because he didn’t realize that they had already replaced the upper radiator hose so it’s actually gonna be less than $450. Part of me wonders if they would have brought up this casual oversight had I agreed to pay the $450 upfront? Also it looks like these oversights have happened to previous customers as well!! I pay $285.51 and everything was fine for a couple of months. In June, the same coolant light came back on for the fourth time. I already spent $1900 at Inman. Prior to Inman, I only went to Volvo specialists (not the dealership), so I decided to stick with what’s worked for me in the past. All my interactions with Inman have been respectful, but I question their integrity. I’ll also say they are really good at making it sound like they’re doing you a favor and giving you a “deal.” I’m not a car expert and wouldn’t know the difference. This is all from my personal experience with them. My advice is that if you’ve already gone to them once and the issue doesn’t get resolved/fixed, I recommend getting a second opinion elsewhere before going back to them. You might also end up paying for things you don’t need. Best of luck!

    I used these guys for about two years and thought they were straight up and honest. I took my car in for an oil change and they told me I needed to change my brake pads but I could at most wait till the next time I go in. Heard about another mechanic that was cheaper so I took my car in and told them I needed an oil change and brake pads to be changed. Turns out I don't need brake pads for probably another 8-10 oil changes AND they quoted me 40% of the price Iman was charging. These guys are scammer mechanics. Avoid.

    Inman is always willing to complete service on my vehicle. They are thorough and professional and always fix the problem I bring to them I have been using them for over 20 years and highly recommend them.

    I take my truck to Inman & Sons because 1) they're honest and don't do unnecessary work, 2) they know what they're doing and they do it well. They're also friendly and accommodating (on schedules), which are big pluses. So glad I found them!

  • 1/5 ירין �. 1 year ago on Google
    I was at the store to check a car I want to buy, I paid them double! They gave me the wrong distinction, I bought a car only because they told me it was good, actually the distinction was wrong and they misled me, I bought a car with additional problems, believe me!

  • 5/5 Corinne C. 1 year ago on Google
    It was either find someone to help my well running (when it worked) vehicle or to simply sell it for parts. Patrick at Inman's discovered the sensor flaw without the help of a computer-identified error message. Soooo grateful!

  • 1/5 S S. 1 year ago on Google
    Purchased a car out of state and was recommended to these guys for a pre-buy inspection. The owner personally told me Over phone that they would do an in depth inspection on the inside and exterior. They missed 3000 dollars worth of damage. Broken headlight Giant paint gouge Cigarette burns on the interior leather Smashed roof foam Rusted brakes If you are considering these guys I’d pass as they do not care about performing quality work.

    Jeff is Fantastic, I have been coming here for years. He treats you like you are one of the family. we have had two vehicles completely restored to better than new condition and he has exceeded our expectations. The service they provide is Five Star all the way. Thank you Jeff and everyone at Inman.

  • 5/5 Jan F. 1 year ago on Google
    Every time I have service at Inman’s it is always done professionally, in good time, affordable, and efficiently. It’s a very comfortable and friendly atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Alan M. 2 years ago on Google
    The Best !!!!! Jeff Inman and his staff are the absolute BEST in the Valley. But, only if you want great mechanics, honest pricing, and a man who REALLY cares about his customers/clients. I seldom write reviews, but in this case, I would be doing a disservice to a really great and honest vehicle service location if I did not.

  • 5/5 Cindi N. 1 year ago on Google
    I was referred to Jeff at Inman's by a old high school friend. I had been looking for a good, honest, trustworthy mechanic for some time. Being a single female, (who absolutely knows nothing about cars) I found myself being taken advantage of especially by the dealerships whenever I took my car in to be serviced. I can honestly say that you can put your trust in Inman & Sons to handle your vehicle repairs. Specifically, when my check engine light came on just when I was about to renew my registration. I took it into the dealership for servicing and was told that I needed another $1,500 plus in work to pass emissions in order to reset the check engine light. I had just spent $2,200 to repair the wiring 3 weeks ago and was still waiting for the system to reset itself. I decided then to take it to Inman's for a second opinion. I received a call back from Jeff later that day letting me know that the engine light was now off and that they had already taken it down to emissions for me and that it passed! I was literally AMAZED that they were able to get the job done so quickly and efficiently and and at such a reasonable price. Inman's saved me from spending a substantial about of money on unnecessary repair work. Good mechanics are hard to find and trustworthy ones even harder. I can honestly say that I would not hesitate to refer my family, friends, or coworkers to Inman's.

    This was my first experience with Inman Automotive - they were very friendly and honest. I will definitely be going back to them for any car maintenance or issue! Highly recommend!

    Great place just very friendly and reasonable

  • 1/5 casey m. 3 years ago on Google
    They replaced an engine for me, gave an a bill for nearly 3x the estimate. Then I find out that they reused old parts that they claim they replaced. Then a few months later the transmission goes out. They didn’t use 3 of the 6 bolts that hold the transmission to the engine, of the 3 they used 2 were only finger tight causing them to separate on one side. The fly wheel was also loose, causing damage to the torque converter. All of this could have been avoided if they weren’t cutting corners. Yes it’s a clean shop but there are plenty of honest shops within a couple miles of here.

  • 5/5 Hollis B. 2 years ago on Google
    Inman & Sons are professional automotive technicians. The work done on your vehicle will reflect their dedication. Give them a chance and you will never go anywhere else. I am a 73 year old Veteran, resident of Maricopa county for over 60 years and my father was a mechanic. Semper fi

😠 DO NOT BUY HERE! THEY DID NOT DISCLOSE THAT MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE I PURCHASED IT. THEY ARE FRAUDS.
