It was time to do the PM replacement of the timing belt for my 20218 Honda Ridgeline. I obtained…read moreproposals from several local repair shops and the proposal from Bullets was among the most competitive. After selecting the 3 lowest proposals I visited each of those three shops to see their operation. Bullets Automotive has the feel of a small town business with big town capabilities. This is a family run business with two additional employees that I witnessed are treated like family. The owner, Bullet, feeds the employees a grilled or smoked lunch every day. He shows them that they are valued. That is important as happy employees tend to care more about their work and helping to grow the reputation of the business. Bullet's spouse handles the office very capably. While visiting the shop I witnessed her negotiating with a warranty company on behalf of another customer. It was easy to tell that she is knowledgeable and skilled at dealing with the warranty companies and the hoops through which they put customers and repair facilities. The job for my vehicle was scheduled for the following week and they accepted my vehicle on time. The maintenance was performed and completed within the promised amount of time and at the cost that was quoted. No Surprises. The total extent of the work was to replace the timing belt, water pump and pullies as well as replace the serpentine belt. Bullet saved the replaced parts and offered them for my review. The job was done well. Having moved to Florida from the north where I was connected and knew where to get the services I needed for anything there was a bit of angst associated with the process of finding a good, honest auto repair facility. I think that this is a trustworthy repair facility that does good work for a fair price. Bullets Automotive has earned my business and I will continue to use them.

After 6 months and several jobs done we are disillusioned with Bullet Automotive. We have had to…read moretake our vehicle back several times to have the "fix" fixed, charged $200 on a average more than originally agreed upon, picking up our vehicle just to have pieces dragging on the ground, a control arm and tie rod so poorly installed the shop we took it to after suffering an intense shimmy said "you should buy a lottery ticket, it's a miracle the wheel did not fall off!" The reason for two stars is we are somewhat complicit for continuing to go back. Beware of Bullets; I would steer clear, pun intended. You can trust me, this is our experience with them. ;D

I trusted…read morehim to rebuild and upgrade the transmission on my dually Ram CTD after many recommendations. We talked at length about what I needed out of the transmission (longevity and rock-solid dependability) and he came up with a game plan for a fully-rebuilt, lightly modded transmission with an excellent aftermarket billet torque converter. I'm a seasoned gear-head myself, so it was refreshing to have a realistic, no BS discussion on the matter. My truck makes me money every day Sure, I could have done it myself, but time is money, and in this instance, it made a lot more sense to let them do it. They are the professionals, and have all of the equipment and experience to do it in a fraction of the time it would have taken me. The work was stellar, the price was fantastic and that beast has never run better. I am truly blown away at how good that transmission feels regularly hauling 8+ ton loads. He, his wife and staff just run a great business. You can tell by looking at the shop parking lot on any given day. The community trusts them, and so do I. When is the last time you heard anyone say that about a mechanic? They are just old-school, extremely knowledgeable guys who tell you the truth, which might be not necessarily what you want to hear, but definitely not what will make them the most money. Tommy could have tried to up-sell me on a variety of components or complete builds, but did not. I knew I needed the work done for some time and considered many different builds and upgrades. He talked me out of unnecessary upgraded components that I thought might help longevity, stating unequivocally that they were not necessary. Ultimately, they listen to you, work with your budget and what you want, but give you honest advice taking everything into consideration and let you decide what to do. I couldn't be happier, and I wish them all the best!

Another mechanic was unable to diagnose several issues causing the car to lose power. Eventually he transferred the car to Transmasters. This family run business has gone above and beyond to make sure my dad's car is running safely. I went to the shop with my dad to pick up his car. There was absolutely no upsell, and there was significant extra time and work put into his car beyond the scope of work without extra cost. They took the time to show me all the parts they replaced and explained everything thoroughly. When subsequent, unrelated issues came up, these guys saved my dad dealing with tow-trucks and drove out of their way to his home to diagnose the problem on site, and take the car back to their shop. It's difficult being so far away from my dad, and it's a worry not knowing if he's being treated well. The treatment he's getting is 'family' level attention, clearly taking into account his circumstances in a way that goes way beyond standard service. Decency, care and professionalism aren't always easy to come by. I recommend these guys from both a personal and quality of work level. The peace of mind knowing my dad is being taken care of is invaluable.
