Report
We brought two of our cars to Hayes to install a lift kit and new tires. The entire staff has been really great. We worked with Nick primarily who has been super helpful and prompt. They've done other general car services for us as well. After the lift kit, he's seen the cars both a few times to check the kit and alignment to ensure everything is holding up ok. We got a flat tire and our spare was on backorder.
So we were screwed. Nick went above and beyond to find us two more tires to get us back up and running. Not sure how he even was able to locate them, but we are thrilled. Great experience here, would certainly recommend to anyone!

Report
I was traveling through the area for business and my A/C stopped working in my 2005 Chevy 1500 pickup. Nick and his team of professionals got me fixed up and blowing cold air in a few hours. Apparently I had lost the A/C pump belt, they replaced the belt, recharged the system.

Report
I took my truck to Hayes for an alignment after a minor accident. They replaced my bent track bar with the wrong part and told me multiple times it was the correct part. After I had to bring them the correct track bar, they replaced it and the front axle on my truck was over an inch off center because they didn't know how to adjust the track bar. I had to go back two times for a very simple fix and I just realized it's still not fixed right and wasn't tightened down properly.

I have been going to Hayes Automotive for nearly a decade. Several cars, repairs, and years later. there is still no one else I trust for vehicle maintenance. Friendly crew. They treat you like family. And they always do their best to keep things within your budget. A++
