$12.60 for front shocky lower rubbers at FORD yet at a NAPA Accredited Workshop you have to buy complete new shockys at a huge price, AND, as for the fix on the cruise control it lasted 2 days.. TO ANSWER YOPUR QUESTION, WAS I HAPPY,, NO!!

Very nice people to work with, went over the car after they did a oil tune-up, found some things that need repaired and explained it so I could understand what needed repaired. First time customer and I will take it back for oil changes. Thank you. Ramona Crandall - Review by DemandForce.com

Service Truck Brake Job
Excellent first experience with Palmer's Automotive. Extreemly professional. Shop was neat and clean. Waiting area was clean and sharp.
The personal attention i recieved from the owner made me feel like I was an important customer.
My only concern was price. $499.00 for a rear brake job seems a little high. This is only a problem if quality is lacking. I believe I recieved a very high quality repair and plan to use Palmer's for all future repairs on my fleet vehicles. - Review by DemandForce.com

Road trip from Grand Canyon back to Spokane WA
I would recommend Palmer's Autocare Center after my experience on August 19th 2013. After 8 days driving from Spokane to explore the South West of Utah I was on my way home when between Salt Lake City and Twin Falls Idaho a noise became evident from my engine compartment ( about 4 am at a rest stop). I determined it was the electric fan motor and not a serious motor problem, so I continued onward and by 6am now at Twin Falls ID I stopped for breakfast @ Idaho Joe's and began looking for an Automotive Service center. I read a few reviews, considered a few shops, then drove over to Palmer's Auto Care. I arrived just after he opened, they got the car in, looked it over, explained the parts, gave me an estimate, ordered the parts, ( I slept in the waiting room), by 10:45 am I was out the door and on the road again and made it to Spokane by 7:45pm. Thank you, to the entire crew at Palmer's Autocare Center

Outstanding service, advice and understanding!
Ran 4 vehicles through Palmer's for Lube'Oil Change and needed repairs. i Was impressed with the detail explanation of the work they did. They were very informative on recommendations and possible repairs needed. Fully understood if I needed to wait before some of that work could be done. Great business!!

These guys are the best -
This was my second visit to Palmers and they definitely didn't disappoint. Neil and his crew go the extra mile. They even went so far as to remove a load of sticky adhesive off the back windows of the vehicle I had recently bought without asking!!!!! Wow what service. We are new to Idaho and I feel very grateful we found Palmers on the first try.

Superior!!
We were disabled in Twin Falls and needed automotive repairs. Neil Sr. Got us right in since we were a couple hundred miles from home. Neil diagnosed our problem, ordered the parts and immediately commenced the repairs. Palmers is fast , fair and friendly. Not only was the repair reasonable but was done tight in a masterful workmanship manner. Neil understood our needs and worked quickly that we could continue our journey. The shop is very Christian in atmosphere and the personnel espouse the Christian servant heart. We were blessed by these fine people at Palmers Automotive.

Thanks Neil!
Neil was awesome to work with. He took special care of my Mercedes Roadster understanding that it would need to be protected indoors until the work was completed. He also was reasonably priced and I didn't feel taken advantaged of as I sometimes do as a woman. I also appreciated his professionalism, cleanliness and kindness when working out details. Thanks for a great experience-I will be back.

Palmer's automotive repair in Twin Falls Idaho is great!

Very happy!
I could not be happier with the service I received at Palmer's Auto. This was my second visit and my Ford F150 needed a lot of work done on its engine. They were quick to get it in and were back to me the next day with an estimate. The repair work was done on time and under what the estimated cost was. Which I might add was a very nice surprise. Also the work was done right the first time. I found the shop to be very clean and everybody who worked there was very friendly. Unlike other places that just seem to want you in and out I felt like the folks at Palmer's really cared. Finally a auto repair shop that I can trust. I will continue to take all of my vehicles to Palmer's whether it be just for an oil change or for any other work that needs to be done and I will recommend Palmer's to anyone who is looking for a good honest auto repair shop.

Air conditioner repair
I had to take my vehicle in for service to the air conditioner. It turned into a much bigger issue than I expected. Neil called right away to explain what it needed, exactly how much it would cost, and how much longer it would take. He even inquired about a past issue that had gone on with my vehicle. I trust the mechanics at Palmers to know what they are doing and be honest about the service I need.

I've been having my 3 vehicles serviced at Palmer's for the last 4 years. They always tell me what's going on prior to the service, they always complete the service in a timely manner, they always advise me, in advance, of preventive maintenence that I should consider, and my vehicles are always returned cleaner (inside and out) than when I left them. Palmer's is real service I can always count on! - Review by DemandForce.com
