This shop has consistently assisted me with repairs, updating wear and tear. I asked if they could get it to a point where it will last a bit longer. They were kind, suggested that it was time to let it go, but agreed to work with me - I had a budget in mind. They worked within that budget and gave me a number of things to look for. Very kind, very supportive, but also kept me realistic. Highly recommend.

Initially, I brought my car there to get a diagnostic which it was determined my car essentially needed new brakes, rooters, hubs, etc. (you name it). My car is an 07 Camry, so I understood why the fixes were necessary. The issue came came afterwards, when it was shown that I needed to have repairs to the repairs they had made after I brought my car back for timing belt issues (which they did not diagnose initially). I brought the car back to get the timing belt issue resolved because the car continued to make loud screeching noises when I accelerated. After the timing belt was fixed, my car ran ok for another week then the starter and the battery went out on the car. I brought it back here after spending $8 over the matter of a three month period- they charged me for a diagnostic and told me I needed a new battery and starter now. I felt it ridiculous to have to pay for another diagnostic after spending thousands at this location in such a short window (mind you, this was summer 2025). The police was called and I still ended up paying for the diagnostic. About a week ago, I heard the screeching sound and my wheel is starting to vibrate rapidly again as I'm breaking which indicates the timing belt is still not properly repaired. When I called them back to look at the work they did on my car considering I am having timing belt issues again, they gave me a number to call and said I could not bring my car back to them. Y'all be careful and mindful of who you allow to work on your cars, not all business believe in integrity and customer satisfaction-this car repair shop is all about getting your money. I would stay far away from them!!!!!

Wasn't the closest mechanic but we went out of our way to go to him. Super nice and a straight shooter on what your car needs or doesn't need. It's a small shop and they're always busy with cars already there from the day or days before, so they may not be able to get you in and out that day which is totally fair and understandable! Best to call or get there first thing in the AM and Melvin & Kurt will absolutely do their best to get you in as he can with the jobs they've already committed to. He runs the shop, works the cars AND also answers the phone, so don't be discouraged if it rings for a minute or you have to call back, he's only one guy! Only reason we left is because we moved out of state but I would recommend Melvin and his crew to anyone. Thank you Melvin!

Weekend labor prices may be a little higher. I am 100% satisfied. He left the old parts to show what was actually replaced.

I've never been so impressed with a car repair shop, I'm always afraid I'm going to get ripped off, especially since I know nothing about cars and have an older one (2005). By the time the two weeks was here, I had already purchased AAA and was able to utilize the free tow. Towed car there around 7am, got a call around 9am with the diagnostic and very reasonable cost, luckily it wasn't major, and I gave the go ahead. They called around 2pm and told me it's done. They also noted me there might be a battery issue, but charged it up and it had been starting since, so didn't replace it (aka didn't replace unnecessary parts to increase my bill). Unfortunately when I went to pick the car up an hour later, the battery had lost its charge and it didn't start, but within 30 minutes (on a Friday afternoon), they had sourced a new battery. I witnessed them calling around to get me the best price, they picked the battery up and installed it and I was out the door. Bonus they didn't charge me for the battery install since I had paid for the battery charge up that didn't end up working. Very fair, honest, knowledgeable and reasonable-- checks all the boxes for me!

I have gone to dozens of mechanics in the past 20 years, and this shop was one of the most pleasant to deal with and the prices were reasonable. I had no sense that they tried to gouge me AT ALL. FYI: it is cash only. I will definitely go back to follow up on some needed repairs! Also, I am confident it is family owned and black owned, both of which are important to me. They also washed and vacuumed the car (and with the amount of dog hair in my vehicle that was no small feat!!!). I will return and recommend them to anyone!
