I brought my 1978 Dodge Van to Lucore with several issues that I was at my wits end trying to solve.They completely fixed every issue and turned my van into a strong running vehicle that I feel confident driving anywhere.I am very appreciative of the transparency they offer when it comes to the work they do. Any questions I had were promptly answered and they called to keep me updated on the repairs.I am also very appreciative of them taking the time to have the original components rebuilt and tested rather than throwing expensive new parts at the problems.If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Definitely would recommend Lucore to anyone!

I have been going to Lucore Automotive for the past three years. Straightforward pricing, quality work, and advice you can rely on.

Great shop. Definitely take your car here. Rich is as good as it gets as a mechanic and if you charm Dave at the front desk he'll give you pizza. J/k on the pizza but seriously a top notch shop for import builds and hotrods to oil changes and tires for moms mini van.

Rich is super talented. I have had them work on my Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Lotus and everything else. Few places can claim that level of competence. I have gone to so many shops in the area and been vastly disappointed and over charged. Not at Lucore. These guys are great

My son’s brakes sounded strange. I called on a Thursday afternoon and dropped it off. His truck ended up needing all new brakes, pads, rotors and mechanicals. They did a great job and the service was completed and ready for pickup the next day!

I had an alignment done on my '69 GTO. Attention to detail was excellent and everything was explained as the work was being done. I would definitely recommend Lucorer automotive services.

I have a 2008 Fordf-250 diesel pick up. It blew a head gasket as well as other engine issues. I had trouble finding someone who works on diesel engines. Lucore did a diagnostic and we decided to drop a new engine in. They did an excellent job. It runs like new and is warrantied unlimited mileage and 5 years. Although getting an engine replacement is not cheap they did an excellent job. The truck runs perfectly. I would trust Lucore if you need a major auto repair

Rich and the team down at Lucore Automotive are top notch. Rich has done a ton of work on my ‘64 Riviera ranging from custom exhaust work to mounting and balancing some custom wheels and tires. Most recently he helped chase down a driveshaft vibration and now the big Buick rides as smooth as glass. If you have a classic car or just a daily driver, give these guys a chance….you won’t be disappointed

Fast good work. When other diesel shops were over a week before looking at it they had it fixed 3 working days.

Went in for a quote for services. Quoted me $110 for a tire rotation in balance. About had a heart attack. Who the hell charges that much for a service that should cost a third of at the most?Price gouging at its best

I was satisfied with my experience at Lucore Automotive, and I would certainly recommend them. Especially if you have a Costco Membership.My 2006 Accord needed to have the catalytic converter replaced, so I purchased the parts I needed and brought it to Rich and his team. Once they got into it, they discovered that due to the excessive rust underneath my car, I would need my entire exhaust system replaced. They were able to order the parts they needed and get my car taken care of pretty quickly. I appreciated them being thorough and not just throwing the new catalytic converter there when likely it would have only been a temporary solution and meant more of a headache for me in the long run.The only issue I had with the work was the bracket for the muffler that came in the exhaust kit they used was too large, so my muffler rattled extremely loudly when idling until I was able to bring the car back in about a week later. To be fair, this only occurred once the car was warmed up, so perhaps they didn't notice on the test drive.When I brought my vehicle back in, the team was able to get a new bracket on my muffler and out the door in about an hour and a half. While it was inconvenient going back again, my issue was resolved for a very fair price, it just took two trips (hence four stars).

I have a 2016 Honda Civic that I've been trying to do a wheel hub bearing replacement on and have been struggling to do it myself. I took my wheel hub assembly here when I wasn't able to finish installing the wheel hub (was in about 80% before I couldn't more it anymore) and called lucore Automotive the next morning letting them know my issue. Within 30 minutes of calling them and taking the part to them I had a finished wheel hub bearing assembly. Really impressed by this service for this particular issue. Five stars.

If I could give Dave Carter and his staff 10 stars, I would! Dave went above and beyond on the engine issue I had with my 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe. He found info that I was unaware of about my problem, got me set up with a trusted Hyundai dealer to fix it. His work saved me not only time, but thousands of dollars. Thanks again, Dave!

Stopped in after being unable to get the part I needed at local big box automotive stores. The fellas at Lucore are knowledgeable, and were able to get me the parts I needed in 10min. And they have some awesome muscle cars in the parking lot.

Took my 1989 S10 in after major suspension mods. Rich was very professional and knowledgeable. Lucore definitely earned repeat business from me!!! Rates were more than fair and amount of time to dial in the suspension was faster than I would’ve expected. Handling is much improved. 😎

Friendly service and did the work as scheduled in the time promised. I had front brakes done and cabin/air filters replaced. Reason I went to Lucore is the dealer stopped offering the 15% Costco discount.When I got my bill from Lucore - the price after the 15% Costco discount was HIGHER than the dealer's written estimate, without any discount.Long story short - very expensive so won't be returning. I wanted to support this small business but pricing is upside down.EDIT after owner response:I'm at the dealer today who provided the estimate i mentioned in my review above (for an oil changes on wife's car) and asked if their estimates include parts AND labor and the service advisor and service manager both confirmed they DO.What that means - Lucore charged me a total of $152 for two cabin filters that the dealer would have charged $80 (both figures include parts and labor). So Lucore's charge is nearly double. I'm embarrassed by letting this happen because I didn't ask for a written estimate before authorizing the work....that's on me.

Called 2 weeks ago 8/5/2019 to set up an appointment for a 4 wheel alignment on a 2018 Dodge Charger after having lowered it 2 inches. Went in yesterday and met with Austin 8/16/2019 at 9 am for said service. Took the necessary parts I was going to need with me ( adjustable upper control arms for the front end, and caster and camber bushings for the rear ) . Austin would come out every so often to let me know what was going on with the car, and what challenges they may have been facing. Though the engineers at Dodge make it extremely difficult to get anything done as far as an alignment goes, these guys knocked it out of the park and got me done and set back within specs. Now that the car is back in spec, it rides smoother than it did after initially lowering it. Thanks to the guys at Lucore for getting my ride back to riding like it should rather than like an old man with a hobbled leg.

Lucore was fantastic in getting my wheel locks off my Volvo that had been over torqued by the dealer when new front brakes were installed in January. Lucore is super in showing respect and getting the impossible done and in timely manner. Highly recommend them.

Lucore completed an oil change for me. Price was a little higher than I have paid at other places but scheduling was simple, and communication was efficient.

I have been getting alignments at random shops as of late, but this last year, my Infiniti G35 ate through a set of tires in 3000 on the front, which was highly unusual. Suspected it was a camber issue as usual.Greeted at the shop with kindness on a Monday morning. The shop took my ideal alignment specs into consideration and I spent my time in their waiting room, which was very clean and full of magazines 😀.When my car was done, the alignment guy spent time with me to explain what was going on with my car, what he could do and what limited his choices, explained what he fixed (toe was way out of specs causing handling issues and the severe tire wear) and what he did that should improve my car's handling but for the street and my occasional track day.I highly recommend giving them the opportunity to work on your car. I drove 45 minutes for this experience and it was worth it for the difference I noticed driving immediately after leaving the shop. Turn in was better and the front end handled better than it has in years. I am scheduling for them to do a proper alignment on my Datsun 240z next.
