Need oil change- so take vehicle to a local Fast Oil Change/ Brake shop- Oh, hey-vehicle is leaking brake fluid from Very badly rusted brake line. Get estimate-- $2400- as labor is about 14 hours plus parts. Need second opinion- Next well known shop- "seen these problems before- can be as high as $5,000. Wow! Ok, time for third opinion: Tommy Mathewes- We can fix it- about 8 hours of labor. $1600. Well OK. Took only 5 hours of labor and price drops more. Now: Prices may vary as each repair job will be different. Costs shown was for one particular car and one particular problem. Every repair job may and will have different costs. All I am saying is yes it pays to shop around- get different opinions and see which one works best for you. Tommy Mathewes give a good estimate price, and it was actually lower when the job was done. How often does that happen? So, friendly service, on time repair work, and no hassle. Recommend Tommy Mathewes Auto Repair for professional repair on your vehicle.

Dropped my car off ('07 550i) the night before for total front bulb replacements- due to complexity…read moreof job, i wanted all bulbs changed at the same time. While there, i wanted an oil change too. I had an 11am appointment scheduled. They kept my car "all day"and after not hearing from the shop at ~3pm, I called the shop for an update? I was then told at 3pm that my car was "next to be pulled in" (I had an 11am appointment), so to hear that my car was next at "3pm" was a little concerning.....fast forward to 5pm/closing time and I get to the shop to settle up. I pay nearly $800 for bulbs to replaced along with the oil change.....jump in my car to leave and low and behold, the right lamp fault is still there on the dash (why i brought the car in the first place). This is when they tell me as they are closing that the fault wont clear because i need new headlight assemblies for the car?? No one called to give me an update along the way and I get the "we just took your car down off the lift along with we are short a technician" today....excuse. I expressed my dissatisfaction...have brought my car in for service on multiple times...time before being a ~$5k job worth of work. Very discouraging to fork over nearly $800 for bulbs and oil change and get a rushed job at closing and excuses. Don't mind paying for quality work but don't insult a customer's intelligence with guesswork and no communication. Also, was given an "updated" receipt of service after the tech went back an added in the comments why the fault light wouldn't clear and the need for new headlight assemblies. This information was not in the original receipt when I paid for service and was headed out before I caught the fault code still illuminated on the dash.

That's when I turned to Yelp! After calling around the area for varying estimates and getting the song and dance that usually goes with repair shops, I decided to give Mike a call at First Choice. He was friendly and able to give me a ballpark estimate, but didn't promise anything until inspecting the vehicle. After inspecting the vehicle, he was able to diagnose the problem and then ordered the correct part. No pushy up-selling or scare tactics either. Before I knew it, my car was repaired and I was ready to get back on the road and back to work. I felt that I also paid a more than fair price for the repairs as well. Hands down I'd recommend Mike for any repairs that you may need for your vehicle. I'll make sure I call him first before considering elsewhere.

I had it towed to Regency Tire and Auto. I thought for sure it was the alternator or the starter. They could have easily told me it needed a new alternator or starter or even worse. But they called me and told me the truth. Just a CD stuck in the player keeping it open draining the battery. Also, my friend who replaced the battery for me removed the windshield wipers to get the old battery out (I don't why). They were not reinstalled correctly and some other stuff was wrong with them. I had forgotten about them since I hadn't driven for a few days. They noticed and called me. My windshield wipers are fixed and as good as new!
