Stay away!! First off, I'm an auto mechanic in Norwalk. My girlfriend's car broke down in Cedar…read moreFalls. She had it towed to this shop. They "diagnosed" it as a blown motor. I had a very hard time believing that so we told them I was coming to pick her car up with a trailer the following weekend. They then tell us that they will be charging like $20 a day for the car to sit in their lot. Long story short, we had AAA tow it from their shop to the one I work at in Norwalk. They had told us that oil was everywhere under the hood and the motor was toast. I checked it out and found coolant everywhere, not oil. I then found that the water pump had locked up causing the timing belt to melt and shred itself which ultimately caused the motor to jump time and not run. I spent a little over $200 on a timing belt kit and fixed the car no problem instead of listening to their nonsense and putting a whole new motor in it which would have cost thousands!

I decided to place a request on Yelp for someone to give us a estimate on the repairs. Thirty minutes later I received an e-mail estimate from Elijah from Whitley Automotive. The estimate was more than reasonable and we brought the car to him to repair later that week. The job was done in a timely fashion and we went ahead and asked him if he could do an oil change as well. He said give him an hour and the car was ready to be picked up. We were very pleased with the work Elijah performed and the cost. To this day we haven't had any issues with the car what so ever. Gerald J. Cedar Falls

We called Tuffy, talked to Todd Williamson, and got what we thought was a reasonable quote, took the car in on the following Saturday, and they were very quick with the replacement. They also caught a few other things that needed attention and we authorized them to go ahead with those. I was very impressed with their professionalism and I highly recommend them.

We got it home and the next time we used it, it didn't start. we called them and they said we need to try to jump it before towing it again, as it must be a defective battery since we didn't get it from them. I said I will NOT be towing it again. We towed it somewhere else and they said it needed a new starter. sparks were flying everywhere from it. Tuffys will NOT stand by their shoddy work.
