For the first time since being on Facebook, I am going to write something about a business because…read moreit was that bad. DAVIS STREET AUTO in Oakville, CT. We need to have our A/C recharged in our truck. So my husband set up an appointment for tomorrow, but didn't ask any questions. I had questions, so I called and here is how it went: I stated who I was and why I was calling. I asked about the pricing and the attitude began. He didn't like that I wanted to get a price first. He stated that he couldn't give one because he didn't know what was wrong with it. I said, I didn't state that there was something wrong. We just wanted a recharge. Well, it got worse because apparently I don't know anything. He gave details about why you would get a recharge. I asked, what if you take it apart and the price is too high? He stated nastily that I could take my truck elsewhere. I tried to asked more questions about the A/C and he stated aggressively that the only reason you need a recharge is because there is a leak. Well, it just so happened that we had just done our car, which the A/C wasn't working in either. They did all the dye stuff and other things but never found a leak and simply recharged it and it has been working fine. That ended up being covered under warranty due to previous work on it. He had stated that he was busy and didn't have time to talk. But I had a couple more questions. He said he was doing a favor for my husband and that if I don't like it to take the truck elsewhere. I said that I was asking questions based on what others had told me. He said, well then, take the truck to them. The conversation got more nasty and aggressive from his point, so I asked are you the manager? His reply was with profanity and stated that he IS the owner. I was shocked. I asked, do you speak to all your customers this way? He again insulted me and nastily told me to take my business elsewhere and that he has been in business for 26 years and never needed my business before and he doesn't need it now. He then finished with a nasty hang up. Keep in mind, his tone was very aggressive. Now, I am still calm, but bewildered as to why he would speak to me this way? I couldn't understand this. So, I decided to call back. I asked, did you just hang up on me? He said, I said have a good day and them hung up. I said, I was just trying to ask questions. He nastily told me he doesn't need my business and to go elsewhere and that I don't have to bring it here. I began to state that I will tell my son, who recommended this place, and hung up on me. I called my husband and told him what happened. He couldn't believe it. I asked, was he nasty to you? He said, well, I was pleading for him to get the truck in and he said he would try to squeeze me in. I said he raised his voice to me, insulted me, swore at me and told me he was doing you a favor and that he has been in business for 26 and never needed a our business and doesn't need it now. We just had him do 2 oil changes for us this year. We were just beginning to give him business. No more. My conclusion: This is the 2nd place over the past 10 years that I have dealt with men who don't like women who ask questions, especially about money and details. They get aggressive, yell, insult you and demean you as if you are beneath them. The last one was in my face and was so bad that I had to call the police. Turned out they were trying to set us up for fraudulent work. I am tired of this and for the first time, I am going to speak out against what was clearly a male-chauvinist. Men who think woman are a bother, a burden and have no right to question anything and that they can speak to them or treat them as poorly as they want. Well, this time, I am not going to just simply take it. DAVIS STREET AUTO owner stated that he doesn't need any business. So ladies, don't give him any and tell your men to stay away from him too until he treats women with respect. We have the right to question about pricing and job details no different than a man. What a jerk!

When I couldn't afford to do things the normal way, he could usually find a way to do it with wire and some electrical tape. Once, he spent at least an hour (which he didn't bill me for) calling multiple salvage yards to find me an exact match for my bumper, because he knew I couldn't afford a paint job, and he didn't want me to have a mismatched color. And his staff are just as skilled, friendly, and honest as he is. If you're looking for a free Keurig bar and nice carpets, move along. This is not a chain or a dealership. It's a good old fashioned oily workshop with broken-in chairs and faded signage. The kind of place you can relax and trust you're in good hands.

The following week I dropped my truck off on schedule and 2 weeks later the job not was still not done, he handed me the rear cam he did not install saying "maybe I could find someone to install it in CA when I arrived"; the backup camera he installed is calibrated about 8 inches off to the left (which i mentally account for now every time I back up) and the wiring from under the dash continues to fall out when I drive bc it was not re-installed properly after he swapped out the $new sound system$ with the apple-car screen that was "necessary" to use backup camera. Such a shame, I handed him nearly $2K and am left with nothing but problems (oh, and the dash cam drains my battery and I have ended up with a dead battery on more than one occasion 3,000 miles from home, but he can't remember if there was a low-voltage cut off to the cam he hardwired to the fuse box)... Bummer for me. Won't be back to CT for 5 more months so I can't even go back in person and Jay has not responded with information on the manufacturer of the product so I can try to figure out how to disconnect it so I don't end up needing a new battery, I'm about to rip the dam thing off the windshield and tear out the wiring and throw the whole damn thing out in the trash. disappointed and puking out my hard-earned $$

I wanted to install a new Blackvue DR770X 3 channel(3 camera) dash-cam and it was challenging because i wanted it hardwired to my 2024 Lexus RX550H and its a hybrid so i wanted it done perfectly. From the first phone conversation with Annie at Sounds Incredible Mobile I could tell this was the best choice for anything to do with Car electronics. Everyone I came into contact with at this place was super friendly, very knowledgeable, professional and just plain super nice. I got an appt quickly and it was installed to perfection in inly a few hours and at a great price.

In May of 2026 I scheduled and purchased a Sony XAV 6000 installation along with Sony Speakers to…read morematch. Total install cost was about $2000. I originally got educated on some of the systems through Annie's YouTube channel and since I was going to be in the CT area, I decided to purchase the setup from Annie. She was extremely helpful with information and guidance via email. I reside in NC. I arrived on site for the install and everything was going pretty much according to plan - maintaining the factory mic in my Tacoma and the factory USB port - items we had discussed before installation would be able to be retained. Maestro would be installed to maintain steering wheel controls. Installation completed and John asked me if my passenger side window had always went up very slowly - it was going up slowly and jittery and I stated no it did not come into the shop that way. He did some checking and he had not installed one of the rubber guides for the glass properly and it was causing the window to go up slow and jittery. I was a little taken aback that his first comment was to blame me that it might have come in that way instead checking his work first. Annie and I tested the headunit and mic and realized the mic was very quiet or hard to hear on phone calls, this was the factory Toyota mic. They recommended installing the aftermarket Sony mic so they did that which fixed the call issue. It's not as stealth looking but it works. I had emailed Annie once I got back about a few other issues that popped up and got some replies. The backup camera blacked out once or twice while backing up at work, in the same exact spot. That problem appears to have gone away and not resurfaced. The next issue I had was audio becoming distorted when switching between apps or randomly while driving and not touching the phone at all. It sounds modulated and the only way to fix it is to unplug the USB cable from the port and plug it back into the unit. It still occurs months later and I have done the latest firmware update from SONY. I did not get a reply to my last email about that issue. What I love: The sound quality is unbelievable. What I hate: The glitches - having to unplug the phone and plug it back in to make it work from time to time. I can be 10 minutes down the road and I'm still playing with trying to get the phone and audio going. This USB port will also have issues from time to time with USB Flash drives and music stored there - despite the songs being legitimately purchased with DRM. I have to unplug the drive and plug it back in for it to be recognized. The worbling and modulated audio is maddening because it can happen at any time and this is via USB wired connection. You would think this would be the stable connection. I am using an Apple factory cable with the iPhone. It happens 100% of the time if you try to access another app on the phone - say checking email or opening a social media app etc. I disabled access to the MIC to these apps, thinking that might be it but it's not apparently. At this point, I would have rather kept my factory unit had I known I would have these types of issues. Aftermarket audio is always a gamble. It can go really well, really bad or somewhere in between it seems. What will I do now: I will likely visit my local audio shop in Raleigh and tell them what issues I have and pick their brains about what could be causing them - could it be install related? Could it be SONY related? Will I switch out the unit for something else? I don't know. I want my local shop to verify everything was done properly before I even consider that. Is there some sort of shielding issue? Some sort of cable issue behind the dash that's causing this interference? I have no idea. Update: 10/16/2026 One of the crossovers it appears have fallen down from behind the dash into the driver's side footwell. I'm now skeptical of this entire installation's quality.

For 25 of the last 33 years, out of necessity I did almost all my own automotive work. About eight…read moreyears ago the clutch in my truck went and I had neither the time nor tools to fix it. Needing the truck fixed, I asked a neighbor if he knew of a trustworthy mechanic, and he recommended Tender Car Care. Vehicles are now complex enough that no garage is cheap. A really good garage is honest and does quality work for a reasonable price, and Tender Car Care checks off all those boxes. Knowing about automobiles and parts costs allowed me to understand when I had been gouged in the past. I used to always ask a lot of questions about the expected repair work, costs and parts, and inspected the final work to try avoid getting hosed. Over the past eight years I stopped asking those questions or inspecting the work because I knew Jodie and his team would do the work right and charge me what it costs. There were a couple times when he could have charged me more and I wouldn't have thought twice about it, so I am confident in trusting him. It is a lot easier writing the check when you know you got what you paid for. And if you are on a budget they will give you honest answers about what it might or will cost so you know what you're getting in to.. Even if I was rich I would still work on my own cars where possible, but it has been nice having a garage I trust. I definitely recommend Tender Car Care. We are moving out of state, and I already miss having trustworthy mechanic just down the road. Thanks Jodie. Take care!
