Eric at Silverlake Automotive Post Falls went above and beyond the call of duty to assist me when one of my tires got a flat on Hwy 90. He had me wait in his vehicle, while he checked out the car and then proceeded to change my tire. So happy to have a wonderful automotive garage that has such care and concern for their customers, especially when an unexpected breakdown occurs! Truly a reliable, trustworthy and fabulous service based business! I am forever grateful to Eric and the staff at Silverlake Automotive for their quick work in obtaining a new tire for my vehicle! Thank you so much. Michelle

I am not an engineer or a mechanic but our Sienna had a coolant problem as well as other issues. From my experience the people that work here (especially the lady at the front desk) are so open and honest about everything, and most importantly they are ready to help you when you need it!Thanks again!! :D

The team at Silver lake was fantastic!! I got stranded in post falls in the middle of a solo road trip, and they were able to work with me to get me back on the road as soon as possible. As a college student with no car knowledge, I really appreciated how helpful they were both in explaining the issue with the car and with making my experience with them a great one! If I ever find myself stranded in post falls again, I will definitely be coming back!

Silver lake Automotive is an amazing place. They are so professional and trust worthy. I love their reviews on what needs to be done now and what things are going to be needed, but can wait. They are friendly and make you feel comfortable while you are there. I recommend them whole heatedly.

Really great communication in an era where customer service lags, so I appreciate this. Honest approach to repairs and a really great way of emailing an estimate complete with pictures. A solid neighborhood automotive repair shop.

I needed an emergency radiator replacement and work tight time frames. Silverlake Automotive was willing to stay a little late for me to drop off my car, and had the repair done in no time! Eric was super helpful and fully explained everything to me. Would definitely recommend and return for any further work!

My husband and I were looking for a truck and Silverlake made it so easy. They have a great deal, when looking into a used vehicle to do an overall inspection. This way you know if you are buying a lemon or not. So knowledgeable, friendly service. I trust them! Which unfortunately says more for the other places out there. Where can you find a good place you can trust that wont try to take you for a ride!? Silverlake Auto! Thanks Silverlake for being good at what you do!

I dont usually do reviews, but these folks are worth it. The Silverlake auto crew has always done a great job, and I would highly recommend them. Nicki and Eric are fun, professional, and easy going I always enjoy chatting it up with them. Thanks for your great work.

I just had the best experience with Silverlake Automotive. We had an obstruction in our HVAC drainage system that was so bad that water began flooding in to the cabin. They laid out the plan to get the obstruction removed and clear any excess water from the system and were right on schedule. No delays and great communication. They even came in under the quoted price which I find to be extremely rare. Thank you!

A lot to be said about the type of people who run this business. Had an emergency and pulled off the highway due to a loud sound coming from the suspension of my wifes Subaru. Was immediately greeted and had someone go for a test drive with me to identify the problem. Without an appointment took the car in immediately and tightened a loose ball joint that had been rattling. He had me back on the road with in an hour of walking in the door and at NO CHARGE ! I mean I assumed to at least pay a fee for the inconvenient of taking their time to make sure my wifes car was in safe driving condition. They recommended I follow up with my shop that had previously done work on it to make sure there was no long term damage but had it needed repair I would have felt more than confident in taking my vehicle back to to Silverlake and will most certainly be recommending them in the future to others. Though they are in post falls and I live in Spokane they would be worth the trip to feel you can trust your automotive service providers. Confidence and trust in a repair shop is worth its weight in Oil. Thank you again and keep up the great service.

They did forget to put windshield washer fluid in, which I did ask them to do, pricing is fair and service is good though....Im editing my post. So after buying a 1966 thunderbird in need of tires, the price I was quoted was 15 % higher than ordering online, so I did. After receiving said tires I called back to see about mounting and balancing....Niki quoted me 200 bucks saying that there is a charge for not buying tires through them and everyone charges that...OK called Les Schwab....100 bucks. Goodbye silver lake automotive and my 4 vehicles.

When I am in North Idaho there is no other place I will take my vehicles.The staff operate like joyful owners. They are welcoming and enthusiastic. When they learn about your vehicle the knowledge sticks and they remember the customizations you have made and how you like things done.I have never experienced them late on a repair, they are quick to send easy to read inspection reports that rate matters in an intelligent, triaged way. Their repair work is stellar and affordable.Silverlake has fun ways to save you money on each visit. If you go to Post Falls ask about Nikki bucks.

Eric, you and everyone at Silverlake Auto are excellent! I called over 5 places in the Spokane/ CDA area and wont ever have to waste my time like that again. I appreciate you doing the right thing and being a genuine guy. I reccomend this place to anyone that doesnt want to get ripped off.

I’ve been here twice now to have work done on my car and each time I’ve been treated very well. I was told in detail what was wrong with my car before they performed any work and each time, felt that these guys were really honest about their work. Nicci at the front desk is very knowledgeable and went over all the questions I had. I’ll sum it up like this... if you want honest quality work done, bring your vehicle here.

I had such a great experience at Silverlake Automotive. The staff was warm and friendly the minute I walked in. The service was excellent. The price was outstanding! I was amazed at how easy and inexpensive it was to get some things fixed that I had been putting off because I was worried about cost. I will DEFINITELY be returning to Silverlake with any other automotive needs I have in the future.

Review №32

I came here to get an oil change and they are probably the best shop Ive ever been to. They take pictures of any issues they find and give a link to what should be fixed soon, one isnt so dire to fix, and what passed their inspection. They talked me through all of it and with that link I got to look it all over myself. They are very trustworthy and Ill absolutely be going to them from now on for all my vehicle needs.

New brakes, new life! 😁This review is way overdue.Silver Lake automotive repair whether CDA or Post Falls, is a top notch company. Its very rare to find an auto repair place that you can trust with your safety - for your car and for your pocket book, not to mention peace of mind. They always do quality work and are reasonably priced. I have been a happy customer of Silver Lake auto for over 4 years now, I highly recommend their services.👍🏼

They got my car in and diagnosed the problem quickly. Mike was very professional and explained everything they where doing to fixed my car.

One of the best mechanics Ive ever been too! I had a family members car that was at the end of its life and needed a lot of work done.

Eric at Silverlake Automotive is excellent. He is respectful of the cost of repairs, gives solid advice, is proactive when he notices something is going to be needing maintenance or repair in the future. Their prices for labor and parts are very fair and you get excellent quality for your dollar. I appreciated the fact they were willing to work with me in regards to dropping car off and making it easy to pick up after hours. You are treated like a valuable customer and a friend.

I went in to have my a/c recharged was told that I need a new compressor even though I just had one installed. They said that they had to take all if the freon back out of my car and charged me $112 and I didnt get anything done. So now Im out the money and still have no a/c and no money to get it filled.

Review №55

Amazing service! They worked with me to get unexpected repairs completed NEXT DAY. The truck had safety issues that needed to be repaired before we towed our camper trailer. They ended up saving me a bunch of money because they ended up not having to repair an item that was listed on the estimate. They will definitely be keeping my business.Oh and, they have a 3 or 4 year (?) warranty on the repairs so I have peace of mind driving our 20 year old truck.

We used Silverlake Automotive for the first time. We were very pleased with their service, not only in terms the actual problems with our Ford truck, but in working with their personnel. They communicated well and promptly, and were personable, courteous, and friendly. Their shop is immaculate. They recommended some additional items, but they explained the reasons for the recommendations, and did not try to push them on us. Based on this experience, we will be using their services in the future.

Silverlake Automotive has been by far the most helpful, caring, and competent company I have ever had the pleasure of working with. The two people I worked closest with are Jake and Nate. Jake was supportive, & businesslike, something most companies cannot fine a balance in. He made sure everything was taken care of in a efficient way. Nate was not only compassionate, he was also very enthusiastic. and accommodating. I truly appreciate all of the time and effort they expended for me, and they have a life long customer.

Honest and Prompt! While on a cross-country road-trip with my wife, I started noticing my car would suddenly pull towards one side and I felt maybe there was a misalignment of some sort or some issue, unfortunately for us, we had to get back to Chicago within 2 days and were short on time. I spoke with Nate Benz, the manager and he said not a problem, hed make time to check out my car if I could bring it in right away.I was prepared to spend $150 on whatever the results were but Nate was honest, and only charged for the inspection and let me know what the issues were and how to resolve once I arrived back in Chicago (parts needed to be ordered from GM) and let us know we were safe to drive home.Its not easy to find honest mechanics and repair shops, but I feel confident vouching for this shop and would recommend to anyone in the area.

Review №88

I had a pretty good experience here: the staff are friendly, the service was quick, and the feedback was great. However, I also have a few complaints. When my vehicle was in the shop, I received a phone call saying that my oil appeared to be dirty. I told them that I change my own oil and told them not to change it. (At this particular time, I had already purchased a new oil filter and oil from walmart to change it myself.) However, when I went to pick up my vehicle, they said that they went ahead and changed the oil themselves. I know that they had my best interests at heart and tried to do what was best for my vehicle, but that still doesnt justify doing work on my vehicle that I specifically told them not to do. Also, when I received the bill, a few of the charges were more expensive than the quote I had received. Although this place is a little pricey, I believe that the quality of the work is better than your average shop and the customer service is excellent. At the end of the day, I work recommend this place, and I plan to return in the future with hopes of a better experience.

Amazing automotive repair shop! They really seemed to care about fixing the actual problem rather than just throwing parts and money at it. They did great diagnostic to track down the real issue. They were also able to find and repair a problem that three other mechanics said did not exist! Great customer service as well and promptly called me with updates on my repair. Would recommend to everyone!

Review №92

The name Im posting under is an alias because the work you did is under warranty and I dont want my truck ruined for leaving a truthful review. Nikki did the intake for a left side valve gasket replacement. 25000 miles later it started running real rough and leaking again. I went to talk with Nikki again about the leak on the left side. She quoted me an amount, Ive forgotten the exact amount, for doing the left side AND right side valve gasket; even though the right side was not leaking. When I told her it was under warranty, she said OH WELL WELL ONLY DO THE LEFT SIDE THEN!!!! Only doing the left side that was leaking is fine but then why try to fraudulently charge for both sides then?
