My neighbor, a long time customer of Alvin’s in Milpitas gave a favorable recommendation for Alvin’s Auto Center. Our son, visiting from Portland, OR noticed his car would misfire after a cold start. Alvin’s diagnosed the head gasket was beginning to fail. They pulled the engine, sent the heads out for resurfacing, installed the new gaskets and had his car ready in 5 business days. Great work, timely communication with txt’d pictures! Last week our Prius displayed the triangle of death on the dashboard. Called and spoke with Tony and dropped the car off on Tuesday afternoon. Wednesday I received and approved the estimate. The inverter’s cooling pump, heater bypass valve were removed & replaced. Fluids drained flushed and refilled. While the car was there I inquired how often Prius’s came in needing their catalytic converter replaced due to theft. They had four CAT Shields in stock. They replace 2-3 per week. I heard enough and had the CAT shield installed. Car was dropped off on Tuesday afternoon, it was ready by the following Tuesday. Pictures were texted of the leaks and catalytic work. Timely transparent communication which to me instills trust. I highly recommend Alvin’s Auto Center.
