AVOID THIS PLACE AND SAVE YOURSELF THE GRIEF!! I brought my…read morecar here in good faith, trusting this company to diagnose and fix an issue on a vehicle that was fully drivable when I dropped it off. While they attempted to make repairs, they instead damaged another part of my vehicle, leaving it in worse condition than when I arrived. What should have been a straightforward repair turned into an incredibly stressful experience. I was left dealing with new problems that did not exist before, wasted time, unnecessary anxiety, and the burden of figuring out how to fix damage they caused. No accountability, no proper resolution--just excuses. A mechanic's job is to repair vehicles, not create additional problems for customers who trusted them. This experience has caused significant stress and disruption, and I would never bring my car back here again. Because of how this situation was handled, I will be filing formal complaints and taking further action, including: * Chicago Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection (BACP) * Illinois Attorney General - Consumer Protection Division * Better Business Bureau (BBB) * A civil lawsuit to recover damages caused by their negligence Future customers deserve to know what kind of operation this is before trusting them with their vehicle. Learn from my mistake and take your business elsewhere.

I encourage you all to use an AirTag or other tracking device to see for yourselves. Be best.

After Driving off my dash lights up like a christmas tree. Check Abs, check brakes, power steering, plus a few others. All these lights came on at the same time. This had NEVER happened before and just so happened to start RIGHT after they did the work. I brought it back immediately. Wayne's guy in the garage proceeds to gaslight me and say these lights have NOTHING to do with the work that they did and that it was a computer issue. Lies. These lights have lit up my dash for months. They come and go. Another mechanic verified that this was the result of poor work when changing my brakes and now it is really expensive to fix. And now that the sensor for my abs is messed up, getting other work done on my car triggers more related sensors. Now tmps is going nuts as well. My car had ZERO computer issues and ZERO abs issues before theh did my brakes this last time. They should be responsible for these repairs! But they proved to be dishonest! If you make a mistake, OWN UP TO IT! I can respect that and have been loyal for years. Wayne is great but the guys in the garage really screwed me this time and tried to make it seem like they didn't. For this I will NEVER patronize them again and don't recommend that anyone else do.

I appreciate how honest they are, once telling me "you drive so little, you could probably skip the next maintenance alert and wait until you hit a mile threshold." My suggestion on process is: 1) Call ahead and schedule an appointment 2) Leave a few minutes early to find nearby street parking 3) Walk up to the door, which is a bit hidden, and ring the doorbell
