    Had a blowout 50 yards from their Townsend location. Of course didn't have appointment, and not a…read moreprevious customer. They worked me in quickly, at a reasonable cost very pleasant and accommodating

    I own a 2003 Dodge Dakota which was showing an intermittent airbag light coming on. I personally…read moreput in a large number of hours trying to fix the issue myself. I then took it to 3- services shops and none could fix the issue. I have been dealing w/ this problem for almost a year. When I took it to the different shops; one being a Chrysler/Dodge dealer, I was getting different stories as to what was wrong. The third service shop I took it to who could not fix or diagnose the issue, stated that I should try Jamie's Auto Repair-South. I met w/ Jamie and told him my problem and everything I have been through. He said I'll take a shot at the issue and let me know. His initial diagnosis was a bad clock spring which I already had replaced by the first service shop I went to. When Jamie tried a new clock spring from a Dodge Dealer it did not fix the problem. At this point he did not give up!! He continued on the hunt for the problem and finally determined the issue was w/ the Airbag Control Module(ACM). The module had a short inside and was the cause of the intermittent problem. Jamie then took it upon himself to find me a used ACM and installed it and the problem seems to have gone away. Now I get no error codes or Airbag light. Jamie is confident that the problem is solved and I am too. Time will tell the story. So what can I say? Well, I was close to getting rid of the truck b/c of this problem; but Jamie showed skill, tenacity, and true customer concern for my satisfaction. So the moral of the story is the other shops did not want to deal with my problem, but Jamie did and I truly appreciate his efforts. I highly recommend his shop for repairs especially tough head-scratchers which no one else can do or want to do!! Great job Jamie and your crew!!!

    I have to be honest, I'm not terribly impressed with this shop at all. Came here for an oil change…read morerecently and was hoping to talk about/schedule a future appointment for a big job I have, could be a big job but easy enough for them. They were just like all the other shops in essentially being set on thinking the actuator needs replacing when I clearly said I ONLY wanted to bleed the brakes first to see if that worked and if not we would talk about replacing the actuator or other fixes that have helped other folks with the same issue. Guy really didn't try that hard to help, said because they don't have the scanner tool needed, I have to go to Toyota. Dude, the scanner is available on Amazon for $150ish. I have it. I hit up some local mechanics that were more than happy to do the job. My other issues is how you used NO protective covers when getting in my car. I had to wipe everything down and it STUNK until I gave it a full clean. Not professional. Also, right after my appointment, all of a sudden, I have a few spam emails, so they also sell your information as well. Guys. Be more noble. Y'all lost a big customer at that oil change. I had 2 other cars from my house that y'all could have been the main dudes for. Not now! I need someone who wants to work, does it well, and owns their work. Not tell the customer to go to the dealership for every little thing over what? Liability? Guess y'all have a lot of issues with that then if your selling information off. Take care y'all.

    I've been using these guys for years and I've always had a great experience. I usually have my…read moreservice completed, while waiting and it's always comfortable and quick. Thank you Fred Drake Automotive!

    tl;dr version: Most unprofessional people I have ever dealt with. Mechanic cussed me out and tried…read morecharging me storage fees when I told them their estimate was high and I was going to go somewhere else. Also, they are now located on Ogletown Rd in Newark, so the current address on yelp is not current. story: My transmission went out on my SUV and roadside assistance put me in touch with these people. Since I didn't know a garage in the area, they agreed to look at the vehicle . Every interaction I had with these people was very unprofessional. It took them three days to get me an estimate and every time I called, it felt like I was calling someone's cell phone; "Hello?" "yes is this the garage? "yeah" Many times it would just ring and go to an unsetup voicemail, so I wasn't even sure I had the right number. They called me three days later with an estimate which was high but I was ok with it. They said I needed to pay half the job up front before repairs. Ok.. I guess. This didn't seem normal to me, but I told them I'd come in on Friday to do it. Because it snowed on Friday, I called them up and asked if I could just pay by credit card. They said they couldn't take credit cards because their machine was broken and they weren't sure when it would be fixed. Since I needed to pay via credit, I started calling around and ended up getting an estimate from another garage about for $1000 less. When I talked to them the next day on Saturday, I told them I was going to move it to another garage and that other garage would come by on Monday to pick it up. They were mad because they had got their credit card machine fixed last night and could take my money now. Then they told me if that was the case then I'd have to pay them for a week of storage at $70 per day. I told them I would not pay that since those fees were never disclosed and they took 3 days to get me an estimate. The woman on the phone said the mechanic would have to call me back to talk about it. When the mechanic called, I told him I wouldn't pay the full storage charges because they were ripping me off. The guy goes mental on the phone and starts yelling and cursing at me using all sorts of profanity. I tell him not to talk to me that way and he tells me me not to tell him what to do, "nobody tells me what to do!". The guy is clearly unstable, and I don't like dealing with unstable people. He then tells me that I am going to pay for a week of storage AND $250 for his labor in diagnosing the problem (it was a transmission and he had it diagnosed the night he picked it up) Despite his rage, I stayed calm and firm and told him I would pay for his labor but not the storage fees. He told me if I could get the car off his lot now, he'd waive the storage fees. I am fine with this because I didn't want my car to be anywhere near this person any more, so I gave them my credit card number and called roadside assistance to come get my car away from this person. Normally this would be the end of this drama, however, not so with this garage. After much effort, I arranged for a tow truck to get there and get my vehicle. When the new tow truck driver got there, I get a call from him because there are "problems." The garage doesn't want to release my car because it takes two days to get funds cleared via credit card. I talked to the other mechanic there and he said if I wanted to get the car released, I was going to have to pay them now in cash. I told them that wasn't the way the world works. I then told him about the other mechanic and how he verbally berated and cursed me out. His response was, "From one man to another man, I would never apologize for something another man did. " I told him that as a business to a customer, he should definitely apologize for something his co-worker did. He puts me on hold and then after 5 minutes, he comes back on to tell me the credit card went through but there was another problem; they didn't have the key there. It was "in another car in another state". Unbelievable!!! So after all of that work of getting that tow truck there, I can't get my car towed away that day. The garage I'm moving it to was able to get the car moved away two days later and they were fantastic and totally professional. I have never been in a situation like this. Crazy!!
