Anyplace that cannot give you a diagnostic fee when you ask for it--RUN. Not only did I pay 225$ to not have the issue fixed (this is JUST diagnostic and they will NOT apply it towards your repair) they wouldn't fix the airpressure in the tires as a courtesy after taking all of this money. Never ever again. I regret going here please pick any other place to fix your vehicle.

13 weeks to rebuild my transmission. Reverse slipped after rebuild. It went back in for repair and 6 weeks later they still couldn't figure it out. Made them stop work and picked up my vehicle. The manager is unprofessional and will not call with updates. When you call he has forgotten what was 2 days before so you get more bs about you repair. I definitely don't recomend. Over $7k and it still don't work properly.

I have a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee that I have been bringing here since 2002. In recent years after my vehicle pasted 15 years in age and 160k miles, they have always told me about other issues they find when I bring it in for the periodic oil change. I have never felt ripped off because they show me what is wrong. While it never feels good to go in for an oil change and come out with a much bigger bill, I realize more parts wear out or deteriorate when a vehicle gets old. I also believe in fixing problems when they first become apparent so I don't get stranded out in the middle of nowhere. Their service is why my Jeep is still going strong after 23 years.

They "fixed" husband car, and it was worse when we got it back than we had it towed there and the refuse to look at it again with us paying another 300 after we just gave them close to a grand! Come to find out they did not replace all the bolts they took out and the car about caught on fire before 2e figure out the issue with the bolts. would not recommend this company to anyone! Don't go here ( to the response my husband and I do not have the same last name) schooley is his

If I could give no stars I would! Came here to get an transmission fluid change for my 04 Expedition that was slipping gears. I told them multiple times I only wanted to get the filter and the fluid changed but Christian insisted they were going to do it the "right way" with a diagnostic for $255. Kept it overnight said they were gonna call mid morning; I had to call them at 1 pm to get an answer but then they wanted to do another diagnostic for another $250 because they found out it was "internal". Literally what I asked them to check in the first place. Highly DO NOT RECOMMEND. Deserve a big fat donut "0"

A bit overpriced if I do say so myself. I've been to this shop many times they do good work and they stand behind it. I say over priced cause I have price matched their repair costs before. On average about 60-200 more expensive. but if you value the work then go for it. If it's a simple job take a pass.
