When I got my first car it needed some repair, but I was a college student with a tight budget…read more Chris really listened to my concerns about my budget. He would find a way to word or express what was wrong with my vehicle, how much the parts would be, and what the estimated total would be with labor in an easy way for me to understand without making me feel like a moron (like some mechanics have done). He also helped me plan along like "well if you need to wait a week til next paycheck you could drive it but I wouldn't do more than that." Or when her frame gave out and he had to tell me that the cost to fix it would be more expensive than just getting another used car. At Vics you can really tell that Chris and his team put their customer's first and I'll keep going back to them for services. Affordable, respectful, and communicative, Vics is the place to go and has my HIGHEST recommendation!!

Please read the pictures that are labeled 1-5…read more.. Scheduled an appointment for 1. tire rotation, 2.wheel balance, 3. Check struts/suspension and call me with opinion, 4. a wheel alignment if it needed it from #3 . 5 oil change , waited my week and half. Took it there early at 8am on Monday . Wrote on a piece of paper and placed it on my dashboard before I turned my keys over stating the above things as well with my phone number in #3 for calling me about struts/suspension. I get a automated text around 1pm saying my cars done. So no phone call the whole time!Go pick my car up they tell me $450 and they replaced the ball joints tire roto and balance(but they didn't put balance on the receipt because they don't charge?) wheel alignment and oil change. I paid cash just upset cause a silent anxiety attack. I drove home 15 mins away on the throughway doing 55-65 with flow of traffic and my car/steering wheel/tires are shaking and vibrating worse. Immediately slowed down to 50 got home and parked it . Couldn't sleep even sent a text back to the automated number at 6am upset that I paid $450 for work I never authorized. Also seen balancing wasn't on the receipt . I called at 8am when they opened and said what happened to me and if they forgot to balance the tires because it's not on paperwork. And idk who but told me they don't charge for it so they don't put it on the receipt ( yet they're doing work to my car, not documenting it) and to drop it off and will take 40 mins.. brang it back for them to fix and when I dropped it off , the older gentleman on the left lift he didn't seem in the best mood and sorta just hung my keys up and kept working I told him I parked it on side street and left. I had to call them 3.5 hours later saying what's the deal and . They told me ohh yeah it's been done you can get it whenever. (Again didn't call me) Picked my car up didn't even close the door from my mom dropping me off and Chris the owner I believe told me yeah check it out we looked at it is seems fine we drove it around . You might've threw a weight idk how fast you drive, Take it for a spin back on throughway and let me know what you think . I said ok cool cool thanks I'll bring you guys a pizza for looking out for me. The rest of review is in the pictures labeled 1-5

Truly an honest mechanic!! My son goes to a local college and his car broke down across the street…read morefrom Steve's. We live over an hour away and didn't know what to do. I called Steve's and the whole office was so kind and helpful! They are all very busy people but still made me feel like my son's safety was their main priority. They all went way above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. In the end, the car was worthless and heading to a salvage yard. I found myself, yet again, not knowing what to do. On Steve's recommendation, I was able to find a salvage yard that offered me double what the car was worth at scrap price!! Throughout this whole event, it costed me less than $100!!! And a special Thank You to the ladies in the office!! I can not say this enough....the world would be a better place if we had more Steves in it!

I had a 9:30 appointment to have my rear brakes replaced and my car was on the lift at 9:32, so far…read moreso good. I walked out to look at my worn equipment and without any hassle the mechanic showed me what I had, or in this case, what I didn't have. I went back to the waiting room, full of all different types of mags, a full coffee pot and a clean rest room, yea, those two kinda go together. My car was down off the lift and out for a test drive within an hour and the price was exactly what was quoted on the phone. (cheapest of 6 places that I called) No one tried to sell me anything else or find other stuff wrong with the car, in fact the one mechanic actually gave some great advise on how to solve another issue I'm having with out spending another chunk of change. Good fast service at a reasonable price...good deal.

Great professional and friendly repair shop. Started bringing my vehicle here when I moved to the…read morearea 3 years ago and haven't used another repair shop since, even after I moved to a house further away. These guys will fix your vehicle right the first time, every time. Very reasonably priced and will go the extra mile to diagnose and make repairs the same day. The most important thing is that I have 100% trust in what they have to say. There have been countless times they have saved me so much money on repairs that I expected would need to be completely replaced. This is the only auto shop I recommend to family and friends. Easy 5/5 stars

Also said bulbs needed to be replaced, which i was getting some bulb messages on my cars dash before. They said they "replaced" the bulbs, but the messages have still been popping up. Ended up looking at it and fixing myself. Seemed nice, but looks like they were actively looking for things to "fix" to charge for, whether it was necessary or not. Won't be going back.

I am always able to get an appointment quickly, I receive updates on the status and if there are additional fees for extra work within a timely manner. Every guest is always greeted quickly when they walk in the door. I am a woman who doesn't know a ton about cars. There are many times I ask for a breakdown or explanation about suggested services or work being suggested. The employees here always are very patient and happy to explain everything in detail. I am never treated like I am stupid or I should know this. If I decline the work I am never treated poorly and there are never passive aggressive comments made. The staff here should be commended on doing a great job on the vehicles and also for outstanding customer service. I definitely recommend to others in the future.

Kept my money for no service provided for over a month…read more Check engine light. Was told it was catalytic converter. Charged me over $2400. 5 minutes down the road check engine light on again. Turn around. The next day informed the part was defective. I could come get my car for a full refund. Came back for a 3rd time, signed the paperwork. Took car to the dealer & it was NOT the catalytic converter at all. I get my credit card statement. The original charge is there, but NO refund. Call firestone. After much back & forth am told I would have to came back into the shop to sign something else to get my money back. WHY WOULD I NEED TO SIGN ANYTHING ELSE? Finally get a call from the "regional manager" who says if I am *unwilling* to go back to the shop, then all he can do is mail a check. LIKE ANY OF THIS WAS MY FAULT! DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE WITH YOUR CAR!!!!
