Car Tender

This is the second time taking my car to be serviced by Car Tender, and I would go a third time. I took my car in this last time because I was hearing a very loud squeaking, clunking sound while driving. Car Tender was very communicative with what they were hearing and seeing when they inspected the car and checking to make sure I agreed with their assessment along the way. As a woman, this stood out to me because I’ve definitely had companies undermine my car concerns, suggesting it was something I had done wrong to the car. Car Tender staff are super friendly and on top of it. This time it was a simple fix, but I appreciated their thoroughness and efficiency in getting my car back to me happier and non-squeaky!

Car Tender has been a great resource for us. They have been able to get our 1990 Mercedes 300TE into perfect running condition. They were able to expertly diagnose a few tricky problems that other so-called German car specialists had overlooked or didn’t want to touch. We really appreciate their hard work and great turn around time. Thank you 😇

I have had my 2006 BMW 330i serviced at Car Tender several times both when they were located on Cap Hill and recently in their new convenient location in Shoreline. I have also had my car serviced at BMW Seattle. While both do good work and seem to be similarly priced for parts/services, the honest care, concern, listening and team of people who actually care about you and your car as much as you do, that sets them distinctively apart. They recently replaced a starter and rear brakes on my 330i. No free espresso or pastry in their waiting room but I'd trade that for knowing my money is funding these folks, good people.

I recently moved to Shoreline and being a car nut one of my first concerns is where to have my BMW serviced. Car Tender had always been on my radar (I liked their reputation) but I lived too far away to have them work on the car. Now I am thrilled to get some suspension work done. Other mechanics have told me i didn’t need anything but I knew something was not correct. John found an issue. And he drove me home and picked me when the car was done. We spoke in length about the car, running a business and his being raised in the area. My experience with Car Tender has been all positive!
