I went in to get a noise in the back fixed. I suggested what my mechanic thought was the problem. My regular mechanic was away. Elmo automatically assumed it was the struts so he charged $1000 for that. Then he called me and said I need new sway bar linx for another $200. Car was fine for all of one day (pretty sure it's because I was driving in the rain) but then the next day all the noises came back and then some new ones. I went to another mechanic and he said the problem would have been easily diagnosed if only the person actually inspected the whole area and didn't assume things. So now I have new back struts and lynx for $1200 but the noise is still there and I have to fork out more $ to get the actual problem solved. Any mechanic worth their weight would offer a discount to fix the actual problem or at least take it for a test drive. He didn't do anything but instead he said he disagrees with both of the other mechanics. The real problem is the LEft rear knuckle assemby bushing / lower rear control arm. When on the hoist both mechanics pointed out the movement in the bushings. I am not happy with the service . This is someone I will never go back to and I will tell all of my friends to avoid this place. $1200 isn't a little... it will take time to recover but I got ripped off with this mechanic. Fix the real problem not what is still working.

Elmo and his family were fantastic to deal with. I brought my car by to inspect a poor idle and odd noise coming from the engine. Elmo's son was on hand to have a quick listen. He mentioned that I should drop off the vehicle the next morning so they could confirm the issue. Within an hour of dropping off the vehicle, Elmo called to confirm that my water pump was failing. He quoted a price and I accepted the repairs. Next morning he calls with good news that the water pump has been replaced and vehicle is running great. Prompt diagnosis and repair is top notch. Thank you to Elmo and his family.

I have had my vehicles repaired by Elmo since I moved to Calgary in 1990. Elmo, Irene, Jesse and Russel have always been honest and treated me fairly and professionally. If you want a job done right and at a fair price I highly recommend Elmo’s. Had an unexpected trip to Elmo’s today - my vehicle unexpectedly broke down and required a tow. It was at Elmo’s by 9 am serviced and running smoothly by the time I needed it for a ride home from work. It’s so nice to have such personalized, professional and trustworthy service. Thanks again folks for your help today.

I was over the moon about getting references for this place for my very hard to find Toyota SR5 wagon, 4wd. They were nice on the phone, gave me a base price for the services I would need, I got everything ready in the vehicle and started driving over - then received a phone call from the mechanic's (I assume mother, Irene), saying "her son doesn't want to work on it". So I am now wasting fuel and my time after getting a quote and taking my vehicle that way, to hear from someone else that the mechanic doesn't want to work on my vehicle? How unprofessional.

Wonderful family operation. Extremely reasonable prices, consistent and always clear and honest of work that needs to be done according to priority - they always check in prior to doing work so I ultimately decide what work to do. Hard to find truly kind, honest mechanics, and after 5 years of dealing with Elmo's, I can honestly say they truly have integrity and go the extra mile (pardon the pun).

We have been taking our Toyotas here for 20 years. He is very honest and only does the work that is actually needed. He always explains everything to me beforehand. Its the place to go if you want the job done right at a fair price. Yearly check-ups with Elmo give us peace of mind on the road.

The owner has serviced my 2014 Subaru every year. He is a consultant and always educates me before I choose what I want to get serviced. The price is VERY fair, and its a one stop shop for everything I have ever needed! They are convenient and I would highly recommend going here!

Brought highlander in for a pre-purchase inspection. Very detailed, Elmo is friendly (talked me through some problems I didn’t understand) and affordable! Like, half the price of having it done at a Toyota dealership. They specialize in Toyota as well, definitely worth it.

We have been taking our vehicles to Elmo's Automotive for more than ten years. We find this shop to be courteous, thorough and accurate from assessment to completion. Refreshing to find a shop that will not do unnecessary repairs! We recommend Elmo's wholeheartedly.....

I called to ask if they would or do an inspection on a motorhome, the receptionist didn't know if they did and stated the owner would call back with an answer. Never did get a call back. So they lost my business. Not a dependable place to rely on.

Elmo did a great job with my truck. He is a fair and honest mechanic. He took the time to explain the issues and answered all my questions. My truck is back on the road again and safe for highway driving.

Elmo is the Toyota specialist for a reason. Look no further if you’re needing a fair, friendly and professional mechanic. He & his boys went above & beyond with regards to my FJ. Highly recommend.

Great place for Toyota service. I call them to balance my tires and they find place for me. I appreciate the service done. The price was very reasonable. Thank you.

These guys are awesome! they never do anything unless it is actually required! One of the best shops in town, Trust me! Call these guys! You won't be disappointed!

Used to be our go-to shop but the work quality has dropped drastically. Unfortunately will be looking for a new shop

Fair and trustworthy. Work done on time and Elmo and family are proactive in spotting problems. Highly recommended.
