Report
5 stars for their work and for their customer service. They wouldn't give up when they were unable to diagnose the problem right away and they didn't charge me even when they did correctly diagnose the problem (it was not my transmission) and they were super nice while I was waiting and loved on my dog. It was great to get an accurate diagnosis after being lied to by a dealership that my transmission was literally falling apart. My transmission is fine! Keep up what you're doing! I will definitely be back (next time I'm told my transmission is falling apart)!

My A/C was blowing out hot air so I called Justin Cockrell to see if that was something they would work on and he told me to bring it in and they diagnosed it and had it working in about half an hour at a great price. Highly Recommend! Service: Air conditioning
