We could not have had a better experience. First, when I called on Monday because I was worried about what appeared to be a groaning water pump, they walked me through some potential simple fixes that didn't result in an expensive repair. As it turned out, they didn't solve the problem, and a difficult fix was necessary. I explained our need to get the truck fixed before the weekend, and Jim was especially thoughtful in keeping the grandparents happy that the kids were coming back for the weekend. We dropped the car off on Monday night for a Tuesday morning inspection where the fuel pump was found to be the problem. They called me early and went over the repair and parts and labor costs, and the estimated time to get the job done. Even though they were stacked up with jobs, they still turned the Jeep back around in less than a day. Amazing for the amount of work than needed to be done to access the fuel pump. After a less than positive experience at another local service shop recently, we couldn't be more appreciative of the work and effort of Jim and everyone at Woody's Auto Repair. And the grandparents are thrilled, too.

They quoted me just under $3,000 to change the gaskets, replace the catalytic convertor, and a myriad of other parts and services related to replacing the exhaust system. They also recommended I change the spark plugs. I had new spark plugs installed less than 100 miles earlier. When I asked them about this, they said it was only a "mileage based recommendation". Why should I trust any of their other diagnoses if they wanted $205 to replace spark plugs I just had installed? When I declined the service, the guy assisting me at the counter requested $49 "to throw at the technician". Not wanting an argument at the counter, I paid and figured I'd dispute the charges later. They put on a good front with the bottled water, shuttle service, and Biblical references on their website. They seem to have forgotten Matthew 22:39; the first verse they quote..."Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself" I was able to go to a local shop and they welded/fixed the flex pipe for $120 without any of the BS.

AAA members be aware. Full story written below. Here is my story with the Ankeny All Pro Service center, I will try to explain with due fairness. I was returning from a wedding in KC to my home in WI when just outside of Des Moines my truck broke down, had it towed to All Pro (since it is a AAA approved repair facility). I got a call from Ryan at All Pro the following Monday saying they had my truck and were starting diagnostics. Their evaluation was that one of the cylinders had a faulty ignition coil due to there being no firing in said cylinder. Agreed to replace all ignition coils with their belief this would fix the issue. Unfortunately it did not and they still were getting zero pressure in the same cylinder, at this point Ryan made the determination that a new engine was needed. This seemed excessive to me but to the best my knowledge Ryan made the right call, I have no evidence to show otherwise. When a used engine arrived they were able to get it installed with only one additional part needed. Total cost of everything totaled about $9300. During this process I do appreciate the communication and working with my warranty company to get as much of the expense covered as possible. Ryan at the time was dealing with all kinds of phone and shop power issues due to a storm that knocked out power and phone lines, which is rough! Once it was repaired I made the 9hr round trip to pick up the truck and was happy to have it back, the two things I noticed off the bat was that the interior smelled of cigarette smoke and that I could smell burning oil from outside the vehicle after the engine was warmed up. It took me about a month to get rid of the cigarette smell, very annoying but honestly if someone wants to smoke that's their choice and I won't fault them for it. The burning oil smell I chalked up to engine replacement and some oil being spilled and it would just have to burn off over time. Unfortunately this was not the case- started seeing oil spots where I parked the truck and upon checking the oil saw it slowly start dropping over only a few hundred miles. When I was able to get it into my trusted local Dodge dealership they noticed 2 things. 1st there are multiple oil leaks from various areas on the engine, bad enough that it will need 1 or more quarts of oil between oil changes and definitely should be fixed. 2nd All Pro did not reinstall all components, hoses, etc. correctly. My dealership found a bolt missing, plastic brackets broken, loose hoses and tubing, a couple of other issues. As they stated it was a "sloppy" job and poorly done. Right now they are currently writing up the paperwork for everything they believe needs repairs or replacements. I called All Pro as soon as I got the news, the response I received was that since the engine was used, it carried only a 30 day warranty and since that time had passed there was nothing they could do for me. In my invoice it's stated "Warranty is 2 years or 24,000 unless specified otherwise", would have been nice to see in writing that it was only 30 days and not just told over the phone. Shame on me for not asking for that. During the call, before I could get to the issue of it being poorly installed I was told "have a good day Joe" and hung up on. In fairness I was frustrated and trying to explain that frustration in depth to the individual I was talking to, I can understand why he thought the conversation was going nowhere and hung up. I am unsure of how much the oil leaks and other damaged items will cost but I will edit with a final update.
