Honest. Trustworthy. Fair pricing for the everyday working person…read more I have two cars. One is electric, and the other is a 2012 Ford van that has definitely seen better days. There were several reasons I bought the van. I needed something to help my mother haul things, and I also needed a vehicle that would allow me to pick up furniture and other items from Facebook Marketplace. It's old, but it works, most of the time. The other day, I had an epic radiator leak. The van overheated, and smoke and steam were billowing into the air so badly that it looked like the vehicle was on fire. It was scary, but I was able to get a tow to this mechanic, who happened to be the closest shop to where I was stranded. This mechanic could have easily taken advantage of me. I was stranded, stressed out, and completely dependent on them to tell me what was wrong. They could have told me I needed hundreds or even thousands of dollars in repairs, but they chose to do something that unfortunately seems to be becoming harder and harder to find in the auto repair business. They chose to be honest with me. They gave me a fair assessment, explained what was actually wrong, and didn't try to sell me repairs I didn't need. For that, I will not forget them. They earned something far more valuable than a repair bill. They earned my loyalty and my trust. When I find a business that treats people fairly, I'm going to tell people about it.

They were great and professional. No up selling and BS upselling you find at dealerships and most…read moreother auto repair. I am very please with the quality of work and service provided from everyone I dealt with. They are my go to auto people. This is the 3rd or 4th time I've used this company. Wilkes the previous owner retired and he really knew how to pass on the business to qualified personal. Years ago I went to Honda and received a 2000.00 quote for things that weren't broken. I stopped at Wilkes and the problem was fixed in a timely manner at a cost of 85.00. I highly recommend this company and note their honesty and high quality of workmanship as reasons I will continue getting my car fixed at this shop.

One call response, within minutes, brought out Clark's Roadside Assistance/Danny (Kudos) who tested the battery and informed us that it was most likely the alternator.

AAA had Roadside Assistance ETA at 3:45 pm from Superior, they never showed. 4:16 pm Call back to AAA - basically told, we were on our own, find our own tow company and submit the invoice for reimbursement. Started calling tow companies: by now, whoever was open until 3pm or 5pm is now closed. Got CLIFFORD in the phone - 24/hr service - we needed a flatbed for the car since it was 4WD, NP, he had two. He gave me a quote, near 1/2 what I had heard during the day ! By now, almost five hours later, my mechanic/tech brother had removed the alternator and taken it to Advanced Auto Parts to trade it in and to get a new alternator. He had some trouble connecting it, but by 535pm/ish, mom's car started and she was able to drive home. Called back CLIFFORD during this time to say we may/may not need the tow. He was courteous, and understanding, basically saying, hey, if you need us, call back, we are here. Didn't actually need the tow, but I had to write about the professionalism he displayed, the resources available, the fair quote, and the openness to be or not to be of service. Well done - thank you CLIFFORD. Patronage recommended.

I ended up taking my vehicle elsewhere, where they were able to diagnosis the issues that my car was having and resolve them immediately.

I specifically asked the attendant to make sure the oil filter assembly was secure, and I was told it would be double-checked. About 300 miles later, I stopped and found oil sprayed all over the underside of my car, with the vehicle smoking from oil burning on hot components. I brought the car to another Take 5 location in Quincy, where a technician inspected it and identified the problem: the oil filter housing cover drain plug had not been reinstalled during the Ocala service. Because of this, I had to stop my trip, get a hotel for the night, pay for a replacement part, and wait for the repair before I could safely continue driving. What makes this especially frustrating is that I specifically asked them to double-check the oil filter area before I left. I have photos, receipts, and documentation from the second Take 5 location confirming what was missing, and I am pursuing reimbursement through Take 5 corporate. Leaving a required oil-system component off after an oil change is an extremely serious mistake. I'm very fortunate I stopped when I did and noticed the leak before potentially causing major engine damage.

So they don't stand behind the parts they install and are willing to lose business over it.

It was not right. I brought it to my mechanic (Shannons is 1 1/2 hours away from my home). My mechanic found a broken engine mount and transmission mount. I called Shannon and spoke to the Owner. I asked why didn't you tell me. His answer, "Your car was on my lift. My lift time is costly. I couldn't wait for Progressive". This cost me out of pocket $1300. It could have been $600 if it was done while the engine was out of the car. While replacing the motor mounts it was found to have a broken axle (it was thought from the dragging onto the truck). Progressive did pay for that. Do not use Shannon. Maybe their lift time is more important than your vehicle also!!!
