My first and last time visiting Shields Automotive…read more On July 28 2026, I took my 2012 Elantra in for fluid changes, general maintenance, and an inspection. It's 15-years old and only has 56000km. The following was my experience: Their mechanic stated on the phone, and in person, that my entire engine had been replaced. - I'm the original owner, the engines never been replaced. He based this on seeing 3-red dots left behind by previous mechanics who worked on my car. He said my brakes needed to be replaced, which were only 4-years old and had 7500km on them. - The brakes seemed fine. My last set lasted 7-years and 25000km. Against my better judgment I had them replaced. - The emergency brake light came on during my drive home. When I got home, I discovered grease left all over the side of the vehicle. They didn't do what I would call a road test after installing the new brakes. - They drove the car back and fourth in the parking lot for about 20 feet. I have the dash-cam footage to prove it. They told me the head-gasket was leaking and quoted me $1,498 to remove the engine, disassemble it, and have it re-machined. - They based this on seeing dried coolant on the engine block. Their mechanic said that head-gasket issues are common with Hyundai/Kia engines. - After a second opinion, another mechanic told me they rarely see head-gasket issues on Hyundai/Kia engines. Everything mentioned above was from one visit! They fixed the emergency brake light and cleaned the car the following day. I got a second opinion from another garage regarding the head-gasket. They did a pressure test of the cooling system and identified the source of the coolant leak as a nearby hose. It was a simple fix, they found the head-gasket to be perfectly fine. After I raised my concerns to Shields about everything they put me through, it took exactly one week for them to respond. They said: "Our technician's recommendations were based on the visual inspection and the diagnostic tools and equipment used at the time." I have no record showing that any equipment or tools were used to diagnose the leak. They offered a free oil change, wheel alignment and safety inspection. I declined, as I didn't need an alignment, and given my experience, I wasn't comfortable having the same garage perform a safety inspection. Instead I asked if they would reimburse me $301.50 for the brake parts, excluding labour, given my concerns about the necessity of the brake replacement. I was told my request would be discussed and that I would receive an answer. I never received a response. I have invoices, photos, emails, and dash-cam footage supporting everything mentioned here. I'm sharing my experience so others can make an informed decision about where to have their vehicles serviced. This was over six weeks, and really put me through the wringer. If there was one issue, okay, it happens. But seven!? In one visit! In my experience, save yourself a lot of pain and don't ever set foot in there.

He and the guys were able to fit it in among the hundreds of snow tire installations. Then on top of it they were able to get me a great price on replacement tires from my SUV.

I thought it might be the pandemic and it might be time to give them another chance. Boy do I regret it. I made an appointment weeks in advance for an early morning and put both online and with the lady on the phone that the a/c was not working -- the air blows but it doesn't get cold. Brought my car in on time. The person at the desk told me they couldn't say when it would be looked at as they "only have two a/c techs." Went for a local appointment and walked by Eccles 2 hours later -- my car was still in the same spot I left it. Went home, called four hours after I'd left my car there for an update as I hadn't heard anything. They hadn't looked at it yet and didn't know "where it is in the lineup." ??? Isn't the point of having a 9:30 appointment that it is in the 9:30 slot? Isn't that what anyone would expect for an appointment anywhere? Would anyone who works at Eccles be ok with this themselves -- dinner reservations, dentists, doctors, haircuts, anything? You show up at 9:30, hang around until 1:30, ask them when you'll be seen and they tell you they don't know where you are in the lineup? No. I told them in that case I would come pick up my car and take it to the dealership. Did so. Got there and got my keys and the lady said, "I'm sorry, I was hoping I could get it looked at today, but we only have two a/c techs." WHY ON EARTH ARE YOU OFFERING A SERVICE THAT YOU CAN'T DO? If you can't do it, don't make us go through the effort of time off work to bring it in only for you to hold the car hostage because you aren't actually able to fill the service that day. How long would it have been sitting in that lot, waiting just for someone to look at it and figure out what's wrong? Never again. Never ever ever taking a car of mine to Eccles ever again.

He set up an appointment for 9:30 on a Wed. morning, I was there right on time, not sure why he requested I bring it in that day as it sat there all day and they did not look at it until the following morning. Mark called me the next morning and asked if I would like to come down and see it while it was on the hoist. I went down and he told me exactly what I had already told him ( that the valve covers and oil pan had a very slow leak) he did tell me that the front crank seal was not leaking and said that I could drive it like that and bring it in later if I chose to have the gaskets replaced. I decided to wait until the fall. They presented me with a bill for 175.00 just to look at the vehicle, another 4.38 enviromental fee ( do not know how they came up with an enviromental fee to look at a vehicle) plus the tax which was grand total of 202.13 just to look at the vehicle in order to provide me with a quote to repair the leaks. I have several classics and have never in all of my life been charged to look at any of my vehicles to quote on a repair, I said to Mark that I could possibly understand a small charge to look at it but this was rediculous, his response was that is what it cost and he walked into another room leaving me with no alternative but to pay this rediculous bill. It is far less expensive to take your vehicle to a dealer than it is to this place, I will not be taking it back there to have the gaskets replaced and strongly suggest that if you require any repairs on your vehicle that you take your vehicle to another shop where you will be treated fairly !!!!
