$950 spent, 1.5 weeks without my car, unnecessary parts replaced, and no solution…read more I previously sold auto parts, so I'm not unfamiliar with automotive repairs. This was the worst experience I've ever had. I don't like writing negative reviews, but I feel people should know about my experience before trusting this shop with their vehicle. After approx. 10 days and a $950 charge, including a $300 diagnostic charge. I was given the car back with the exact same problem I originally brought the car in for. The shop misdiagnosed the problem, replaced the wrong part, then said the replacement part was defective and replaced it again. When that still didn't fix the problem, I was told they didn't know what was wrong and that I should take the vehicle to a dealer. I later identified the problem with AI assistance, and my neighbor fixed it with an $80 part. I strongly recommend doing your homework and reading the LOWEST reviews before choosing this shop. Some customers may have had good experiences, but mine was extremely disappointing. I'm posting this so others can make an informed decision. According to AI a reputable shop will return your money. Didn't happen here.

I think this is the best experience I've ever had with a Car Repair shop. Lenny came out and…read morediagnosed the problem, which turned out to be quite serious, and then went out of his way to make sure that it was properly fixed. Lenny and his wife are warm, kind, and I got the sense they are concerned with the quality of their work and the safety of their customers. My car was fixed very quickly over the weekend, for a very reasonable price, with some bonus work thrown in for no extra charge, just because Lenny had things taken apart and wanted to make sure the job was complete as possible, and we wouldn't have to go back in for more car surgery down the road.
