A/C Compressor replacement 2014 Subaru
One of my friends recommended I call Brandon regarding my locked up A/C compressor on my 2014 Subaru Impreza. Brandon had me come by for an estimate and I got the compressor replaced two days later after they got the part. Very efficient, professional and master mechanics. The part was very expensive but Brandon was a cheaper than the dealer. AAA certified shop, I highly recommend Lael's!
Brandon W. from Lael's International Auto Service responded on 04/22/2025 09:33 AM

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! It sounds like Brandon is working his magic once again. We're glad to hear that the A/C compressor issue was sorted out efficiently—no one wants to feel like they're in a sauna while driving their car. And thank you for recognizing our competitive pricing; we believe keeping your car cool shouldn't break the bank! If your Subaru ever needs more TLC, we're just a call away. Your recommendation means a lot to us!

Customer for years ~ and always great service!
I've been taking my car to Lael's Auto for 13 years and the staff is always friendly and informs me or what I need to know. Lael cares about his customers which is why I've gone there for so long. He explains things to me of what is needed on my car and is not/can wait. John has worked on my care and I always like knowing he is because he knows it well. Brandon does a very good job at the front desk getting customers in and out and keeping them updated, too.
I can't say enough good things about Lael's International Auto Service Ctr. which I why I have recommended them to others. Thank you, Lael. Keep up the good work!
Brandon W. from Lael's International Auto Service responded on 04/07/2025 09:33 AM

Trustworthy workers for my car
I have superior brakes and rotors now and my car runs SO smooth. They knew the problem as soon as I described the symptoms. Plus they called ahead with costs. Did not try to charge me ‘extras’. I had an early appointment and they worked on my car when I brought it in. I am so glad to have a place I can trust for my car. Plus parts and labor warranty
Brandon W. from Lael's International Auto Service responded on 04/07/2025 09:33 AM

It's fantastic to hear that your brakes and rotors have transformed your driving experience into a smooth ride! We take pride in diagnosing issues quickly, making sure you’re kept in the loop about costs without any surprise fees—because nobody likes a surprise when it comes to car repairs, right? Having a trusted place for your car is essential, and we're honored to be that spot for you. And yes, peace of mind with our parts and labor warranty is our way of saying, “We’ve got your back.” Here’s to safer travels and smooth driving ahead!

The parts were ordered and confirmed ahead of the appointed time so everything went as promised. And I appreciate bringing to my attention additional work will be required in the future.
