I had a very frustrating experience with Rashid and this shop. Before bringing my vehicle down, I…read morespoke with Rashid on the phone and explained exactly what I needed done. I was already working with Scott at Michigan Sandblasting and planned to have my Jeep's underbody sandblasted there. Rashid told me they could apply POR-15 afterward, so based on that I paid to have the Jeep towed down there. After it arrived, everything changed. Rashid started questioning the project and for over a week I was given the runaround. Multiple times Rashid told me he would "talk to Scott figure out a solution and call me back," but the call back never happened. Every time I followed up I got the same vague response and nothing actually moved forward. Rashid knew all of the details prior to me towing it down there. If this wasn't a job they wanted to take on, that should have been communicated from the beginning instead of telling me to bring the vehicle down and spend money towing it there. It's extremely frustrating to be told something can be done, only to have the shop avoid giving a straight answer after the vehicle is already there. Very disappointing and unprofessional way to handle a customer. I wasted time and money because they couldn't simply be upfront about whether they were willing to do the work.

Have you ever done business with a place for a small inexpensive job that when all was said and…read moredone you felt good about your choice and you might even trust them enough to go back ? OK, so skeptically you go back for a more expensive job hoping your trust (and luck) was not misplaced and guess what, your trust and luck went from a 5 to an 8 ! So I think I hear someone thinking "What about that really BIG Expensive job you've never had any experience with, and the car is sitting at the side of the road inoperable so you have no choice but to Trust that you won't be taken advantage of, I mean what do you know about fixing a major job like that ? "So you take the leap and go ahead with their estimate. Well what do you know about that. Trust prevailed ! Car fixed completely at a reasonable price and TRUST enshrined for Steve and all the people at A&E ! P.S I didn't really really want to write this review in fear that A&E would get so busy that I would have to book an appointment months in advance but what's life without taking a few chance"s ?

Extremely disappointed with my experience at this shop. I brought my vehicle in because of a…read morespecific noise/repair concern. After their diagnosis, I was told the right control arm and struts needed to be replaced, and I was quoted around $900. Not only was the original issue still present when I drove away, but the experience got worse from there. I was told my struts would be replaced, but I was later informed shocks were done instead. I was also told the right control arm needed repair, but work was done on the left side instead. On top of that, my car key was damaged while in their possession. I was given conflicting explanations first that the key was already wobbly, then that it had to be taken apart because the battery was dead. Regardless, I ended up paying to replace my own key. When I immediately told Mike (the owner) that the original noise was still there, he asked me to bring the car back the next day. After looking underneath the vehicle again, I was suddenly told there were multiple additional problems that somehow weren't identified in the original diagnosis--and I was quoted another $1,100. At that point, I lost confidence and took my vehicle to the dealership for evaluation. I provided them with the paperwork from this shop, and based on what I was told there, the repairs I believed had been completed were not consistent with what I was charged/told had been done. I am now having the dealership properly repair my vehicle. This was an expensive, stressful, and frustrating experience involving poor communication, conflicting information, unresolved issues, and damage to my property. I would strongly encourage anyone using this shop to get everything documented clearly and verified.

As an older single woman, I know they will never try to "fix" things that don't need fixing, while making sure my van stays in the best shape possible. Their prices are very reasonable, too. Their main policy is honesty, and good work!

I got 5 quarts of VALVOLINE Full Synthetic engine oil and a new oil filter. They also replaced the drain plug gasket, checked fluid levels, lubricated suspension where possible, checked the air pressure in my tires and performed a multipoint inspection. Labor was ~$28, parts was ~$52. I had a $15 coupon so my total was ~$71 after tax. They also replaced my air filter and windshield wipers with the components that I provided GRATIS. Unisex restroom was clean and tidy. Customer waiting area has free water, coffee and soda pop. I SHALL RETURN next time I need my engine oil changed.

I needed a new shifter cable for my vehicle and had it towed there after hours. They have a drop box for your keys which is a nice touch. No more having to get up and be there at the crack of dawn to explain the issue. Just wrote what I thought was the issue on the envelope and put my keys in the envelope and dropped them in. That's the way I like it. The next morning they called after they found the issue and gave me they're price. I was happy to hear they're price because the 2 other shops I checked with wanted to charge more $$$ for the shifter cable fix. I've got my usual mechanic and I kinda felt like I had cheated on him but it was just this once and he was backed up a week with other work anyways. The Livonia garage is clean inside and even in the bay areas where they work. Everyone was friendly and the coffee was really good. Lots of parking as well. Try The Livonia Garage. It's a winner choice.
