I went there once 3 years ago to take care of a hissing noise from the intake and they wanted to charge me $200 to fix it, I said no thanks! I went on youtube for advice and looked at it myself and it was just a bad pcv valve cost me $10 to fix! 2nd time going there was 3 years later to have an alignment done, $60 good price if there was a mechanic but I waited for an hour and still no mechanic! I drove down the street got my alignment done for a little more but left with a calm and worry free feeling in my mind! I think this place is good just for a tire shop only. Beware and do your research! The owner was a nice guy but if a mechanic doesn't show up to work, consider replacing him!

But it's good that his reputation precedes him so that future customers know how lucky they are right away. Trust that he's absolutely brilliant with hybrids and a kind, honest person to boot. Sam fixed the AC in my old Honda Civic Hybrid for a small fraction of the cost that the dealer wanted to charge me because he's smart enough to know how to repurpose used hybrid parts. He also fixed little things, like my loose bumper, without even mentioning it! A brilliant guy and a real mensch. When you go to his shop, know that you're in good hands.

After reading the reviews I towed it to Sam's, he looked over it and got back to me lightning fast and told me that the issue was with the Hybrid Battery and that it was still under a 100k warranty and that I should take it to the dealer. Thanked him, tried to pay him for his time but he wouldn't have it. Insisted he take something and I was on my way. Fast forward: Kia tries to charge me for the repair, called Sam and told them they wanted to charge me $$$ to replace the high voltage fuse. He said no, that's part of the hybrid battery. I returned to Kia and they eventually agreed it was under warranty. Least I can do for this absolute legend of a mechanic is leave this review and basically beg you to take your car here, you won't regret it.

Things I've found, suspension bolts missing/stripped or hand tight. broken sensors, old plugs were used in the rebuild, they looked worn like 200k miles were on these things, gap was 65-70 when it needed to be 50. wires were old, I had red MSD wires, the ones after the rebuild were black generic, cracked and broken and were arcing. And to top it all off, car now has a major blown head gasket after 1000 miles? I am scared to even think what the crank and the rest of the bottom end looks like. He really screwed me. You'd have to be out of your mind to take any car there. He talked a good game though, but doesn't know what he's doing.

I'll be adding documents shortly but initially I really liked Chris. He seemed like a decent person…read moreat first. I run a small car fleet and we worked out deals for oil services. It was until a few months ago i trusted him to repair my my ls430. It was super expensive but I trusted him. You can do the math, I zelled him an extra $1000 as cashApp wouldn't let me send anymore because the amount of money I was sending him was too much in a short time(together including the zelle transfer i spent over $6000). And my experience has been really awful. After all that money my car's main issues haven't been fixed. He swears that the main issues(camshaft position sensor didn't turn back on until the day I got it back). I don't know what to believe. Some of the money was also for suspension and the suspension I think so far is fine. Lastly he offered to do an engine replacement for $2100 because as he said "felt bad for me". Part of me wanted to say yes, I called him today and wanted to confirm with that it was final price and that I didn't want to pay more. And that until the vehicle was repaired I wanted to keep the yelp review at 3 stars. His answer was that he hung up on me and "didn't want to play games". I feel over charged, and quite honestly betrayed. Anyone that reads this review please make your own judgement. But I hope the texts and the money I paid for speaks for itself. My car now is iffy to drive after his "repairs". Thank you. Update Dec. 4 2025 In response to Chris's comment, I realized he's being extremely deceptive. He claims to be willing to swap my engine for $1200, this is blatantly false. I have evidence that he was going to charge me $2100. Please look at the photos I've uploaded. And as for the meth head comment he posted demonstrates how unhinged this supposedly "professional" mechanic is accusing others of being a meth head is extremely insulting. He lied about only charging me $1200 for the engine swap, he admits he that he couldn't fix my vehicle and still wanted to charge me for his shoddy repair attempt. Please take these things into account for his credibility. He accused me of being cheap, but what kind of cheap person would spend 6k on a car for repairs? I just wanted the repair done correctly and it wasn't. Please keep this in mind, I spent $6,000 for him alone and my car still isn't fixed. I'm a deeply unsatisfied and I feel like I've been taken advantage of. I urge you to look at the photos I've uploaded and make the decision yourself whether his shop is trust worthy.

My engine had locked up and my mother said this guy was a good mechanic, i told him my issues and he towed it to his shop. He diagnosed the engine was locked and would need to be replaced. I gave him the money for the replacement and he gave me a engine that didnt work and was basically trash. Mind you just getting that engine i waited a month for him and his team to actually work on my vehicle. Then he told me it was the radiator boom another 300$. I ended telling him that i will not be paying for another engine since the one i paid for didnt work, he then said ok no problem i will cover your engine but then said i wont work on the car because my wife divorced me and im broke and homeless and that any paymet you send will help. So at that point i didnt know what to do, so i ended up just paying my balance of 500. He finally got the engine installed after 2 months of waiting and he brought it back with a faulty fuel pump and a bunch of wires and sensors messed up. Do not put any money into this guy and do NOT trust him. He also told me he has signs in his shop so if he runs over a tire With YOUR car you will pay for it. Also i could never ask him questions without him saying im rushing him even though he had my car for months.This guy will not prioritize your car only your MONEY. Hope this helps on your search for a good mechanic because this guy is not it! I have so many words for a guy like this but i feel ive said enough.
