I was told it might be the alignment, or the tire balancing; I had them do both. I was told my brakes were "worn" (whose aren't?!), but didn't have that done. I was also told the age of my tires might be leading to dry rot. (5 years) When I got out on the highway, the vibration was WORSE! I had to drive at a slower speed to a Subaru dealer in VA. They told me I had a bubble in one tire, & they were "feathering". I had them check the brakes, & they MEASURED the brakes pads at 3 mm, which indicated they needed replacing. Tires were on sale. So I replaced! My Master mechanic son-in-law, When he had taken a look at my tires & heard my story, said: "You need to find a new place to take your car." Wasted $175!

Simple part to replace they even told me once I got a hold of them the replacement is 30 min and the diag was an hour. Not sure why I got it back the next Monday. Told them I have to leave Friday or a trip they said it would be done Friday. Never called me, missed my trip. Turns out it was fixed Friday but I never got a call and they closed without informing me "we fixed it Friday but 3:58 hit and we all left the shop, all we needed to do was test drive it" ridiculous

Ended up fighting with y'all for two weeks until My corp lawyer got involved. it got fixed quickly by Pro built transmission @6428 Amsterdam way. Unfortunately yesterday I got back into town and my Mother in laws car was delivered to you. You quoted her over $2000 to fix her car. Yet again, you are raping the people of New Hanover county!!!! it took me two hours to fix her problem!!!!! She is 612 miles away as of 4 am this morning! Thank you capital Ford for selling me 2 quarts of fluid and a Transmission speed sensor! I have the 123.46 receipts from Capital ford I'd like to post I'm just old and don't know how to do it. Yall are actually a stain on New Hanovers public. I am truly ashamed that y'all are in operation in our county. Oh yea lived the fact that you told my mother in law that it's cheaper than trying to buy a new car. Y'all suck !!!!!!!! As a business owner her in New Hanover county for over 31 years I WILL do all I can to keep people away from y'all and your unsticks business practices !!!!

Took it to Econo Transmission and dropped it off , ( 1st come 1st serve ) Mike Pridgen is the nicest guy you could ever meet , called me in a few hours with diagnostic . It needed a rebuild , and I agree due to high mileage. It was done VERY fast and the price beat everyone in the Wilmington & Coastal area !! Even needed a part that they didn't charge me for .. Never got to meet Daryl Keels my technician but all I have to say is JOB WELL DONE !!! If you ever have a transmission issue I suggest you go to Econo !! TOP NOTCH 100% .

This is the best shop I have ever dealt with! I've been working on aircraft in the Navy for 14…read moreyears and tinkered with cars for about 12. I couldn't find the exhaust leak in my 2009 Challenger with lots of aftermarket work and parts. The 5.7 doesn't have any room to get to the headers without a lift and equipment to move the engine out of the way. The shop I took my car to install the headers and get her performance tuned didn't let me know of the mismatch in the headers and exhaust manifold so it burned through the gaskets. The guys at Kennedy found all of this and even though i brought gaskets to have installed they still didn't quite fit. After all of their hard work the leak came back when they were testing it so they found a set of gaskets that would work and though they removed and reinstalled my headers 4 times to troubleshoot, they would not let my car out of their shop without being in perfect condition! Better than that they did not charge me a penny more for all the time the had to spend doing the extra maintenance! They truly go above and beyond to provide the best service with zero bull$h!t, overcharging, or trying to get you to have more things fixed than necessary! Best group of professionals that really work with you to not only get your car talen care of, but make your business with them top priority! Their rating on here is this high for a reason! Can't thank them enough! If you have your doubts, give them your business and call me if everything I'm saying isn't true. Sinceely, Chief Freddie Dempsey USN (910) 777-2514
