[Multi-point Inspection]

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place! Bruce and Jake and EVERYONE there is intelligent, kind, straightforward and thorough. I brought in a car that had a tire burst after damage from the hurricane and wanted to make sure it safe to drive as the dealership didn't check the car other than simply changing out the tire. It turns out there were issues with the fender and lining /guards were all also severely damaged. Thankfully, Carlax thoroughly inspected the car and there was no further damage. You can truly feel that they care and are extremely well versed on the best way to get things done. Pricing is fair and thoughtful. They have a 70 point inspection (which those multipoint inspections always make me laugh because it's never explained what we are paying for) but Carlax even showed me them point by point on the computer. I was shown and explained the issues firsthand. I feel much safer knowing we are in their care and plan on bringing the rest of the family cars here! On a personal note, while I was there I was offered food multiple times haha and they just seem very genuine and trustworthy in addition to being masters at their work. Thank you so much to the entire team!

I was referred to Carlax by my good friend. They got my car in quickly and inspected my car and gave me a thorough report. I was able to schedule an appointment for the most pressing service needed. They were quick and stood by their initial estimate. I felt I was treated fairly and they did a wonderful job I highly recommend Carlax in Palmdale California.

Carlax

[Brake Repairs / Replacement]

My parents have been going to Bruce and his crew since I was a child and his shop was Bruce & Tina's in east Palmdale. Carlax is in a new location more centrally located to be able to help the entire Antelope Valley, with the same quality, trustworthiness, and expertise that has been shown for decades. My parents still go to Bruce for car issues and here I am a 43 year old mom who now takes my truck to Carlax. My most recent experience I thought my whole transmission was going out. I called Tina and was able to get in the next morning. They diagnosed the problem easily, put quality care and work into getting me back on the road quickly. Price was good. The office staff and workers are always extremely friendly and professional. The mechanics are the best around. I HIGHLY recommend Carlax!

Great Continued Service

[Brake Repairs / Replacement]

Most recently they change my oil and replaced my rear brakes. It took a couple of days to get it all done, but my car is running (and stopping) as well as it ever has. My family and many of my friends have been going to Bruce at Carlax for years. I appreciate his hard work and honesty. He doesn't try to convince me that every problem needs to be fixed immediately and then charge me an arm and a leg. With my most recent car, he even made a list of issues and ranked them by severity and then I've been able to take care of them as time, money, and need arises. I also appreciate the app they now have. It makes tracking maintenance on my car and scheduling appointments easier than ever. They also have rebates and coupons available.

Bruce and his team have always done excellent work and been more than fair in their pricing. Bruce is very up front and honest about with that needs to be done, what it will cost, and how long it will take. He is very responsive to questions and concerns, and always explains things in a way that is easy to understand. I was given his name through friends several years ago and couldn't be happier with the service I've received.

Brought my wife's car in to be serviced. We found out that her car needed a new radiator. Bruce and his fellow mechanic's did a wonderful job of replacing the damaged radiator with a new one. It has been 5 months since the repair, and the running temperature of her car is perfect. Many thanks for your professional work. Will definitely return to this business.

Honest Mechanic

[Complete / General Auto Care]

I took my car into the shop because it was making a fluttering noise when I'd start the car. Well little did I know anything about service bulletins on vehicles. Bruce told me there was one on my vehicle & that it should be covered under warranty by the dealership because it meets the criteria & I would save myself some money (was looking at $800-$1k job). Realistically had I taken my car anywhere else...no mechanic would have told me that. I would be paying out of pocket. Nowadays it is so difficult to come by an honest mechanic. I highly recommend CarLax. Bruce & his team are AMAZING!!!
