My husband & I were on our way to visit AZ this past Summer from northern CA. Our 2000 Ford broke down in the desert 50 miles outside Phoenix. Triple A towtruck came and the driver guessed it was our alternator. We were staying in Chandler and Triple A advised Gruelich garage. It was about $450 for the repair (new alternator) and we were grateful to have it done that same day. The reason I can only give 2 stars is due to the fact they tried to \"upsell\" us and say that our brake pads were 90% worn. We declined the additional repair and had our regular mechanic back home inspect the brakes. He removed the 4 tires and had us come look at the brake pads that were fine.
