    Had a last minute repair that urgently needed to be done and they fit me in with no appointment…read more This is without a doubt the best service shop in the area! Great people, reasonable prices, local business, excellent work. They charge less than the dealerships and get to you sooner. I would not go anywhere else.

    Bewildered by the Communication Breakdown…read more I'm not in the habit of writing negative reviews. If you browse my google profile, you'll find countless positive ones for businesses across Detroit and its neighboring areas. But I feel compelled to share my experience here because I'm left completely confused by my recent transaction. I brought my 2016 Transit Connect in due to occasional issues with gear shifting while accelerating--especially on hills. The engine would rev, but the van wouldn't gain speed. Initially, the business offered a free diagnostic, which turned up nothing. So I scheduled a follow-up and dropped off the vehicle overnight. Two days later, they contacted me with a laundry list of issues that didn't align at all with my original complaint. They claimed the brakes were locking up, the parking brake felt engaged while moving, the wheel couldn't rotate, and that it was difficult to even get the van on their lift. They said they bled the brake line to release it and advised me to call my insurance company because repairs would run into the thousands. None of these issues had ever occurred prior to drop-off. Alarmed by the sudden and severe diagnosis, I asked them not to perform any work until I could see the vehicle myself. They insisted it was unsafe to drive and that I'd need to pay $100 just to pick it up. When I arrived, that fee mysteriously increased by $25. Frustrated, I paid and took my keys. Here's the kicker: once I got in and drove off, NONE of the issues they described were present. I made it from Ferndale back to Detroit with functioning brakes, freely turning wheels, and no signs of the chaos they painted over the phone. It felt like either a massive miscommunication or something far more concerning. After driving with intermittent transmission issues for years, this experience left me deeply disappointed--not just because no repairs were completed after a two-day wait, but because the proposed repairs didn't match reality. Spending money over misleading claims is enough for me to never return. I'll absolutely be sharing this story with others.

After their diagnosis, I was told the right control arm and struts needed to be replaced, and I was quoted around $900. Not only was the original issue still present when I drove away, but the experience got worse from there. I was told my struts would be replaced, but I was later informed shocks were done instead. I was also told the right control arm needed repair, but work was done on the left side instead. On top of that, my car key was damaged while in their possession. I was given conflicting explanations first that the key was already wobbly, then that it had to be taken apart because the battery was dead. Regardless, I ended up paying to replace my own key. When I immediately told Mike (the owner) that the original noise was still there, he asked me to bring the car back the next day. After looking underneath the vehicle again, I was suddenly told there were multiple additional problems that somehow weren't identified in the original diagnosis--and I was quoted another $1,100. At that point, I lost confidence and took my vehicle to the dealership for evaluation. I provided them with the paperwork from this shop, and based on what I was told there, the repairs I believed had been completed were not consistent with what I was charged/told had been done. I am now having the dealership properly repair my vehicle. This was an expensive, stressful, and frustrating experience involving poor communication, conflicting information, unresolved issues, and damage to my property. I would strongly encourage anyone using this shop to get everything documented clearly and verified.
