CLEAR RECOMMENDATIONS

Good auto repair starts with the right diagnosis.

A repair should not begin with replacing parts at random. Extra Care checks the concern, explains what was found and helps you understand which work needs attention now and what may be monitored.

Diagnose first: identify the likely cause before recommending work.
Clear explanations: understand the finding and the available options.
Practical priorities: focus on safety, reliability and necessary repairs.

I had a great experience here. The staff were very professional, friendly and helpful. They offer convenient walk-in services, which made everything easy and stress-free. The pricing was fair and transparent, with no hidden charges, and they clearly explained the repair work before starting. The service was completed quickly and efficiently, and my vehicle was returned in excellent condition.

Amazing mechanic. Very friendly, helpfull, and fair. Highly recommend these guys. I use them for my right hand drive JDM vehicles.

Had taken my JDM to 5 different places before I was advised to take it to this place. I’ve been told a million different things like changing out my CV axle, alternator to “just have to live with it”. These guys walked me through everything while asking me very detailed questions about my car. Test drove it a couple of times, and after literally tightening some bearings, car felt fine. They tried not to charge me but after what I went through I decided against that. If you have a JDM or any car in fact, take it to these guys. Solid, honest, thorough guys. Definitely my go to now.

These guys get it done right. My go to mechanic in the neighborhood. There is a reason they are so busy all day long. 5 stars from me…been there 4 or 5 times now. Price and service exceeded expectations every time.

On one unlucky day, my car sputtered and died in the middle of street and a tow truck delivered my car to extra care auto. Then I had my car serviced for ignition coil, engine oil, transmission oil, wheels. I learned what happened, why it happened, what options I can choose from at what cost, and how I can maintain specific parts of my car. I felt relieved and confident. Reasonable price, full of knowledge and gentlemanly, I thought. Later on, I went to have my troubling electric parts and brake parts checked. I explained symptoms and my other concerns as well. Again, detailed explanation on symptoms, and what and why's followed. I also asked for check ups on suspected faults possibly needing repairs as my car is an old vehicle. Unlike some other shops, they pin-pointed necessary works only and explained when I would need each works done. So, consistency on quality service continued. Naturally, then, I agree with other reviews that the manager and mechanics at extra care auto are so knowledgeable, professional, and kind gentlemen who give customers a peace of mind. They fit me in fast for service, answered all my questions and concerns, and fixed all issues at very reasonable pricing, yet never tried to usher me into anything. Finding a true mechanic shop is not an easy job these days, but I am glad I did find one for myself. I have made this place, and these men my mechanic after tumbling upon some unhappy experience elsewhere. I highly recommend extra care auto for those who need trustworthy mechanic.😍

I normally do all the work on my vehicles as I live remotely but had to come to Vancouver for medical. Was experiencing a front-end clunk and thought possibly a u-joint issue on the drive shaft as well. Fit me in last minute as I was going to drive a long distance in a few days. They did a thorough check for any safety issues. Mechanic located a couple of loose nuts on rear suspension u-bolts, and a front brake pad causing the clunk. I found the mechanics and staff to be knowledgeable, courteous, very reasonably priced, and most importantly, HONEST! I would definitely recommend this shop.
