I brought my 2004 Kia Spectra here because I was sent here to have a rear wheel stud replaced after…read morea discount tire shop damaged them. Unfortunately, after the repair I immediately noticed a new repetitive squeaking/grinding noise from the wheel and aggressive vibration when braking at higher speeds. I contacted the shop about the issue and was initially told that it was likely a coincidence and that I would need to make another appointment. I later had the vehicle inspected independently and eventually disassembled the rear brakes for inspection and replacement of the pads and rotors. Once everything was apart, the problem became very clear. The two replacement wheel studs that had been installed were not the correct application/specification for my Kia's hub. Although the thread size worked, the studs were intended for a different vehicle and did not seat properly in the hub. Because they were not sitting flush, the brake rotor could not sit flat against the hub. The rotor visibly wobbled when rotated and was actually contacting/grinding against the brake hardware. One of the brake pads at the affected wheel was also completely worn down to the metal backing plate, while the pads on the opposite rear wheel still had substantial material remaining. I inspected the caliper slide pins during the brake job and they were moving freely. What concerns me most is that the rotor interference was noticeable simply by spinning the rotor by hand. The grinding was obvious, and the vehicle was returned to me without this being caught. The car also was not road-tested afterward, which likely would have revealed the noise and braking vibration. I understand that mistakes can happen during repairs, but I expected the correct application-specific wheel studs to be installed and the work to be checked before the vehicle was returned to me. I ended up having to have a third party diagnose the problem, obtain another inspection, and redo the rear brake work and stud work to fix the issue. I also want to add that during this process the mechanics at this auto shop disconnected my dash cam without my consent, not once was I informed that my camera was disconnected and did not find out until the next day, I'm not sure why the shop would touch my property without permission without obtaining approval first, another issue I had was a foul odor in my car when it was returned. Based on my experience, I would never return here for future repairs.

I sent in an online query on Monday morning, received a callback within 2 hours, and received an…read moreappointment for the next morning. Gary had given me an estimate from the photo I'd attached to my query, but when I got the car there, I walked around it completely and asked him to do several other areas. He removed paint transfer that had bothered me more than a year, buffed out scratches on the doors on both sides, buffed out the haze on the headlights, fixed the sizable dent that was my original complaint, and a few additional small ones. My car looks like new. I'm more than happy with his work and would definitely take one of our cars back to him if needed. And the price was only a little over the original estimate. Well done!

After checking into a couple of car shops that remove scratches, I decided on having 'Preferred…read moreDent Repair' (PDR) to the work. The owner (Gary James) came across as personable & knowledgeable. His cost estimate was very reasonable. His shop is small but very clean and organized. The end result was that the scratches were totally removed and the quality of workmanship exceeded my expectations. I would recommend Gary to anyone who needs minor body work done and you will not be disappointed. They specialize in dent repair, hail damage repair, paint protection film application and ceramic coating.

Went over and talked with the manager, Justin, and he made us feel very confident that we would be well taken care of with our car being serviced here. We were so happy with the diagnosis that did not cost a fortune to fix! Car is cooling nicely and one other item taken care for a light that was displayed on the dash. I had requested a written estimate which they sent to us after diagnosing and that is exactly what we paid when picking the car up. Now we will use this place for both of our cars for service since we were so well take care of for service required. This repair shop was a great find and highly recommend if you want great service and a fair price.

From the moment my car was dropped off, the staff was professional, helpful, and friendly. They took the time to explain what was wrong with my car, what needed to be done, and why. I really appreciated their transparency and communication throughout the entire process. Not only were they easy to work with, but they also completed the repairs quickly and efficiently. Now, my car is back on the road and running well. I couldn't be happier with the service I received. Update: It's now been about 2 weeks since I got my car back and everything had been working fine, no lights on my dash whatsoever. Unfortunately ,my car broke down (went into limp mode) again. So, they fixed general issues, just not the issue causing it to breakdown. I thought about taking my car back but when my father called the first thing out of their mouths was talking about a charge for looking at it again. This being the 2nd shop I had taken it to and the 2nd time I was failed by a shop, I didn't really have the means to spend another few thousand on it. Very upsetting, I was considering this shop to be a go to for me.
