I will not be going back there, as I hate that feeling of not wanting to give a tip (for an oil change!!!?), making me look cheap, and yet feeling somewhat obligated to give one. They also keep upping the price for my oil change. I did not give a tip, and I simply will go somewhere that does not ask me for a tip. Period.

Very disappointed…read more We thought we had found an honest mechanic in Greg. I'm sorry to say we were sorely disappointed. We came to Greg with an old car with some significant issues that we weren't sure would be worth repairing. We paid for an inspection that Greg told me would be very thorough - I was under the impression that this meant the whole car would be inspected and thus any repair suggestions he made thereafter would result in the car being safe and roadworthy. After the inspection and quote for repairs, I convinced my girlfriend to go ahead with the $1800 service because I trusted Greg, he seemed very honest and upfront about the work he was about to do. Less than a month later, coming back from Vancouver something strange happened to the steering. It felt a bit like we were 'floating' sometimes when we turned. We knew the tires were old, so we assumed that this was due to bald tires. We slowed down and drove very carefully. Back in Courtenay the next day, my partner's dad looked under the car and saw that an integral part of the rear axle had broken (see pictures). Thinking back to the night before, I was extremely upset that my girlfriend and I could have been in a serious accident, and assumed that this issue must have, or should have, been spotted when the car was at Greg's shop. We went to see Greg that day. He looked underneath and then told us that he had informed us of this issue/concern. Both my girlfriend and I are certain we were never told about a condition of rust that could result in such a break in a few weeks time... I immediately started to get upset that he would lie directly to our faces to avoid any responsibility. As we pressed him further and denied that he ever told us about this, he became more vague, saying that 'we had talked about how old the car was and that it had rust on it'... Again, we have no memory of him even mentioning rust... I got very angry that he would keep denying responsibility when, in my mind, it was a question of our safety (perhaps lives even) versus $1800, an insignificant sum in the long run. I blew up at Greg and left, and my girlfriend and her dad left shortly after. Later that day, we got a call from someone from his garage, I am assuming a mechanic. He told us that they had never had the car raised up and so had not seen the extent of the rust on the undercarriage... So, either Greg had known that his team had seen the rust under the car and thought he had told us about it, (or, as I think more likely, lied about having told us about it) and then decided that the best way to avoid any responsibility would be to have his mechanic tell us they had never seen the rust at all.. Or, they had actually never seen the rust in the first place and Greg had decided to come out and immediately tell us that they HAD seen it and had informed us of the situation... Either way, it suggests Greg and his team are/were lying. For my part, I guess my ignorance when it comes to car repairs and how garages operate contributed to us never finding out about the rust before heading on our trip... I guess I will have to make sure to get a full safety inspection in the future. I just assumed that when Greg said his inspection would be very thorough and go over the entire car, he meant it...

I used to trust Dry Auto and Greig Dry for my mechanical work. However I can no longer support this…read morecompany for many reasons. First off, they were replacing my front brakes along with other things, I had both sets of brake pads in my truck door, easily accessible. I told them this 3 times, they called me saying they couldn't find the front brake pads so they were charging me for new ones ($120). I tried showed them where and how easy the pads were to find, but they refused to even look, complaining that "You have a saw in the back of your truck so I couldn't find them nor wanted to look through". This is BS for 2 reasons, 1, they grabbed the 1 set of brake pads saying they were the wrong ones, well the boxes were literally touching each other side by side, 2, they were in the door cubby so there was no searching involved. I went back to try and get a refund for the $120 pads they charged me for unnecessarily and Greig refused with the excuses about. I had to go back a SECOND TIME and argue with Greig again saying I shouldn't have to pay for their lazy mistake. Greig finally said "I can only give you what I would pay for them and you have to give me the front brake pads you have in return", well Dry Auto only pays $50 for the brake pads but charged 120, so I am still out 70 dollars that they profited from off of the products from Bumper To Bumper...this I find completely unacceptable. I caved and accepted because its a week before christmas and my wife's birthday, so I didnt have time to keep arguing with this. Please DONT go to Greig Dry at Dry Automotive. They will charge over 100x more than they pay just for the parts...not to mention they will not live up to their own mistakes. They also put a hole in my rear tire while in the shop, and they were going to charge me to fix that too, when its their fault again. Lastly, when I asked for a refund Greig said "I never want to see you or your truck again". I was never rude about this nor aggressive, and yet this was his response....clearly very uneasy with people speaking the truth to them about their work, and are petty enough to tell me to never to come back because of THEIR MISTAKE. Ignore this place when you need work done, go to Wade's Auto right near by for far more reliable and honest service and work.
