Are You Ready For The Road?
An average of 13,000 Americans are killed between Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day, some as a result of unperformed vehicle maintenance, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Each year, neglected maintenance leads to more than 2,600 deaths, nearly 100,000 disabling injuries and more than $2 billion in lost wages, medical expenses and property damage.
Most mechanical failures can be traced to neglected maintenance. For example, the U. S. Department of Transportation reports the leading cause of mechanical breakdown on our nation`s highways is overheating, a condition that is easily avoidable. Other deficiencies that are simple to detect include low antifreeze/coolant, worn or loose drive belts and defective cooling system hoses.
Checking tire pressure and inflating a tire costs nothing, yet an average of 21 percent of cars inspected in check lanes during National Car Care Month have under inflated tires. This can lead to a blowout and a serious accident.

I was having problem...
I was having problems with my transmission, and after calling around other places, not happy with what they had to say, I called American Five Star, and talked to Eric. I told him that the other places I had called were recommending transmission replacement. Eric told me before he wanted to do that, he wanted to have a look at it first. In the end, it turned out to be only a solenoid inside the transmission... view more. It was a fraction of the price of the replacement. My transmission works great now, and I`m very happy! I`d recommend them to anyone.

This is the best auto repair shop I have ever taken my car to. One of the Mechanics Paul walked me thru my vehicle and everything that was wrong and needed to be done. He explained it to me, a female, in a way I could understand. I was very apprciative for the extra time he took helping me with my vehicle. I highly recommend this shop for anyone looking for an honest reliable auto repair shop.

I had allot of work done on my car up to and including a new engine. I had to go back with some little things and when I did I was mad as hell. But i have to say Eric and the guys listened to my issues and resolved them on the spot. The reason I am giving them 4 stars is because I had to go back. But they stood behind the work they did, and fixed it when if was not happy. I would have given them 5 stars had I no... view moret had to take my car back. The work comes with a two year 20,000 mile warrenty. I cannot fault a business that stands behind it`s work. My car runs great now so once the "buggs" got worked out. Turns out the work was quality. They don`t do quick fixes; I like that. I would rather pay a little more and have it fixed right the first time.

Honerable and Honest was my experience at American Five Star Car Care Center. Owner/Chief Mechanic Eric Ali was very thourough in explaining the problem with my engines coils and why they went bad. Unlike many other shops I have gone to that just give you a price and no information. After I left I felt like I understood more about my cars engine than I would of ever thought and how to maintain it to avoid many pro... view moreblems down the road. I had taken my car to the dealer and got the price to fix of 1689.84 and had Eric fix everything the dealership said needed to be done for only 942.71 with a better and longer warranty on the work. I highly recommend this company and after one visit you will understand why.

Now I know why it`s called Five Star Car Care Center. I was more than impressed with the service and the quality of that service that was given to my escalade. My wife took car to dealership and they wanted 1400 dollars for services. I than looked up a tempe auto repair center and found Eric at Five Star. I took my car in and showed him exactly what the dealership was going to do and what they wanted. Eric then ... view moreshowed me everything that needed to be done which was actually work than the dealership was going to do and the total cost was 733.47 out the door. So better service and a more than fair price. A customer for life we are now and highly recommend.
