Glen and his Team did an incredible job on my 2025 F250. From the suspension to the custom paint work, this truck looks incredible and drives even better. The attention to detail is without a doubt the best I have seen. BlackJack Speed Shop is the only place I will take my vehicles. Thanks!!!

Took our Tahoe in to get fender work done/trimmed for the lift that was installed. Drove it to eat, and then home. Felt something in wheel but couldn't figure it out. My wife almost got in accident next day with our 4 kids and was left stranded and found the lugnuts on front driver side to be all very loose. I contacted restaurant and there was no footage of tampering with lugnuts. Very concerened that it accidentally happened at the shop, I sent out contact emails to try and get at the bottom of it and got no response. The owner Jason called me later and said he watched video from inside the shop that the lugnuts were never touched. I will never know what happened. But him reaching back out and watching video and holding his guys to a standard is enough for me. Have done work with them often, and their work has always been positive.

Billy at Black Jack Speed Shop took care of me and my 2022 Corvette Stingray in Red Mist metallic tint coat, I first spoke to him from anybody else at this shop and he Met and Exceeded my needs which were to get my radar detector installed on a 1LT which Is difficult thru the back of the mirror and they pulled it off with the magic of Jack who worked on my car, then they powder coated my ugly light grey factory wheels a high gloss black metallic and installed a Blue Attack air filter and finally my Corsa Extreme cat back muffler delete with AFM valves and That was my Favorite mod to the car because Now it sounds like a Real F1 Supercar !!! Thanks Glen and Gary and Jason the pickle who gave me a ride home when I dropped off my Vette to get all this work done !!! Amazing shop and I Will be coming back for more work on my car :) Mark~

There was an aftermarket dual-exhaust system installed on my 4x4 Tundra CrewMax. The dealership wouldn't touch it and when I called BlackJack, they were more than accommodating and scheduled an appointment to take a look at it right away--even though they did not perform the original install. Turns out, it was pieced together with some modifications and welding that weren't supportive enough to hold the weight of the tailpipes. Blackjack patched it up and installed a bracket that lasted for awhile but with the weight of the exhaust (and my girlie driving... :)), it came loose again. Twice this happened and BJ was gracious enough to take my truck in and fix it each time it happened--at no cost. After realizing this wasn't going to work, I returned to BJ to order a new MagnaFlow exhaust system and install it on my truck. I was so impressed with their customer service ethic that I didn't hesitate to also have them order and install a BDS suspension lift, Fuel wheels, and 35" Toyo M/T Mud Terrain tires. They also price matched the lift and parts. Their prices are extremely competitive, their products are trusted name brands, and they stand behind their work. Alas, my truck was approaching 50K miles, so I traded up to a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited last year. I purchased the Jeep with the lift and accessories already installed by the dealer's outfitters, so I was a little uneasy not knowing much about the integrity of the install. Again, even though BJ didn't install it they willingly, and without question, were able to check the alignment and the aftermarket lift that was installed on the Jeep. They also caught that the factory lug nuts were erroneously installed on the Fuel wheels the outfitters placed on there and were stripping them due to incompatibility, so they replaced them with spline lug nuts and also rotated the tires--all at an extremely reasonable cost. I also recently got rear ended and was able to get in and out quickly for an estimate for the rear bumper with no appointment needed. Since the parts were all custom parts, I preferred to have BJ handle my claim, rather than put it in the hands of the dealer. I really appreciate the fact that I'm a female and I can walk in here (and not know a whole lot about all the inner-workings of my vehicle) and they don't try to take advantage or talk down to me because I'm not a car guru. They go above and beyond and raise the bar when it comes to valuable service. As long as I have a vehicle, I will be coming back to BlackJack for all my customization needs.

I've had two dealings with the Blackjack in my truck-driving history. The first was in my 2014 F-150 where I had Line-X sprayed in the bed. The second was in my current F-150 where I had a deer guard, running boards, Rhino liner (they no longer do Line-X) and a trailer hitch installed. I have to say, while I didn't get back double my money, I did drive away with extremely quality work. I will pretty much leverage these guys whenever I need something done to my truck.

I cannot recommend Y/D Automotive after my experience with their mobile repair service…read more I found them through Google and contacted them for an alternator replacement. I was quoted about $585 for parts and labor. A technician came to my location around 3:00 PM, removed my alternator, then discovered he had brought the wrong replacement part. After checking multiple auto-parts stores, I was told the correct alternator would be about $950 plus $175 installation. Since that was substantially more than the original quote, I declined and asked only that my original alternator be reinstalled and the vehicle returned to the condition it was in before the work began. That did not happen. The technician spent several more hours trying to reinstall the alternator and drive belt but could not get the belt back on. I even spent about an hour trying to assist. Around 10:00 PM I told him to stop for the night. I paid him $60 for his time and was told another technician could come finish putting the vehicle back together. My vehicle was left undrivable overnight. The next morning Y/D initially told me someone would call back within 10-15 minutes to arrange another technician. That call did not come. I was later told all technicians were booked and someone could come the following morning around 10:00 AM. I could not leave my vehicle undrivable for another full day, so I hired an independent automotive technician to inspect it. He found that the drive-belt tensioner operating point/bolt had been stripped and could no longer be properly operated. I received an estimate of $449.65 to replace the tensioner assembly alone, separate from the alternator repair I already needed. When the independent technician returned to address the belt issue, he discovered that my original alternator had also been reinstalled incorrectly. It was not properly seated, and one mounting bolt was misaligned and not positioned through its proper mounting point. I am including a photo of that condition. According to the independent technician, the misaligned alternator prevented the belt from fitting correctly around the accessory system. He advised that the stripped tensioner was consistent with excessive force being applied while attempting to install the belt with the alternator improperly positioned. He also advised that the tensioner otherwise appeared to function normally apart from the stripped operating point. Once he properly seated and aligned the alternator, the belt could be installed correctly. The technician has agreed to document his findings in writing and, if necessary, testify regarding what he personally observed and his professional opinion. What disappoints me just as much as the mechanical work is how this was handled afterward. I repeatedly gave Y/D Automotive opportunities to resolve this directly. Despite already paying additional inspection and corrective-service costs, I initially asked only for the $449.65 cost of replacing the damaged tensioner. I specifically told them I was not asking them to pay for the alternator I already needed, my additional diagnostic expenses, corrective work, lost business income, transportation issues, or my time. I later made an even broader attempt to resolve this. After researching the business, I came to believe the technician who worked on my vehicle may also be the person operating Y/D Automotive. Because I am a small business owner myself and understand that people can get in over their heads, I offered to waive the $449.65 request entirely in exchange for an honest account of what happened, acknowledgment of the damage, and a sincere apology. That message was sent through multiple business communication channels, and some showed as read. I received no response resolving the matter. At this point I am beginning the formal process of pursuing recovery of my documented damages and expenses. I would have preferred to resolve this directly, but I am not willing to absorb damage to my vehicle and the resulting costs. Everyone makes mistakes. What matters is how someone handles them afterward. Based on the work performed on my vehicle and the way this situation has been handled, I absolutely cannot recommend Y/D Automotive. I am including supporting photographs and documentation where the platform allows so readers can evaluate the circumstances for themselves.

Y/D Automotive Mobile Services was one of the first to reply and also one of the most reasonably priced options for diagnostic testing. We received a clear quote up front, and they were very transparent about the service area, letting us know there would be an additional charge if we were outside their 20-mile radius. I appreciated that honesty and made sure to confirm the distance between us. We were assured our home was within range, which made scheduling easy. We set an appointment just a couple of hours later. When we received the text that he had arrived, my partner in crime went out to meet him, and he got straight to work. The whole process felt efficient and professional. When I finally went outside to hear the verdict, it turned out the issue wasn't nearly as bad (or as expensive) as I had feared, which was a huge relief. Y/D also let us know he'd be ready to come back out to complete the repair whenever we're ready. So far, the experience has been smooth, transparent, and reassuring. I'll be following up with another review once the repairs are completed, but this was a very solid first impression.

Very disappointed with my experience with Ryan. My vehicle is a 2019 GMC Sierra, and I contacted…read morehim because my truck had a coolant leak and I already strongly suspected that the radiator needed to be replaced. Before coming out, he told me he would still need to diagnose it and charged me $115. After paying the $115 diagnostic fee, I was basically told exactly what I already knew, the radiator needed to be replaced. Then I was informed that he couldn't actually do the repair because the job required the A/C refrigerant to be recovered and he didn't have the equipment necessary to do that. His recommendation was for me to take the truck to a repair shop. My biggest issue is, if you're advertising yourself as a mobile mechanic/certified technician and charging $115 just to come diagnose a problem, I would expect you to either have the equipment necessary to perform common repairs or be upfront BEFORE charging the customer that you may not be equipped to complete the job. On top of that, I felt his labor quote was extremely high. He quoted me $700 JUST FOR LABOR to replace the radiator on my 2019 GMC Sierra. I ended up taking my truck to an actual radiator shop, and they charged me only $300 for the labor. That's a $400 difference for the same radiator replacement. So I essentially paid Ryan $115 to tell me I needed the radiator I had already told him I believed I needed, was quoted $700 in labor, and then was told he couldn't even perform the repair because he didn't have the necessary A/C equipment. Based on my experience, it left me feeling like collecting the diagnostic fee was more important than actually repairing my vehicle. I would not use this service again. I would strongly recommend asking exactly what equipment he has and whether he can actually complete your repair BEFORE agreeing to pay the $115 diagnostic fee.

Wild. Unfortunately, they saw a woman, by herself, who doesn't know all there is to know about car servicing and tried to take advantage. It's a huge shame because I came to this place specifically because they market themselves as having fair and honest prices (and they were running a promotion...that they ultimately did not honor). Shameful place. Dishonest and exploitative. Please avoid.
