    Missing screws on ball bearing almsot killed myself had I not slowed down and pulled over immediately

    I took my truck their to have a wheel bearing replaced these assholes purposely only put one screw back on knowing that I live down the street from them with the intentions of my truck messing up more and me having to take it back to them I called him and he acted like he had no idea what the problem was and told me to bring it back I went to another shop and they showed me what they did

    I have an out-of-town trip coming and my air-conditioner in my 2106 Nissan Maxima started blowing hot air. Called one dealership and they quoted me $170 just to inspect it and they couldn't get me in until Thursday morning. Second dealership would take me right away, but $200 to inspect and $30 to charge the unit if that's all it needed (if there were no leaks). Pulled up at Sanchez Auto Service And they checked for leaks for free and charged the system for $80. I was in and out in 15 minutes. They stopped working on another car to take care of this for me. Really nice people, and phenomenal prices. Please send them as much business as you can, consumers need more places like this.

    Happily driving the car back home.

    I've been here a couple times this year for basic check engine issues on my 2006 Toyota RAV4. It's an Old School neighborhood auto repair shop in that there's nothing fancy about it and in a residential neighborhood with a coupe food mechanics to service your needs. So a couple days ago my car stalled in a parking lot in Bucktown, I called Sanchez first to see if I can get AAA to drive it over and they asked a few questions about the problem and then told me to bring it over. Turns out it was the Starter. Their pricing was really fair and they are always quick to get your car in and out on the same day and in this case I was able to get the car back in a couple hours. The guys here are honest with their assessment of the repairs and fair with their prices. I suggest you call first this way they know you're coming. I went once to get a slow leak fixed and it turns out they don't fix tires so he sent me over to another guy in the area and I got it taken care of. This is kind of my Go-to Mechanic now and I fell a sense security knowing I have a place to go when I need it because my car isn't getting any younger!

    It really couldn't get easier or better. I'm impressed! I know a bit more about the car business…read morehaving been around dealerships and my late husband owning a shop. For me years ago repairs were easy, I just gave him the keys. If we didn't it, he'd send it off to someone and it would get done. We weren't a body shop, nor a detail place, but we knew people. But that was some time ago. Those people are now retired or have passed on. So I'm left to my own resources, asking around and internet research (reviews.) I bought my SUV and there was a slight gap at the bumper after about a month, I did take it back and they just pushed it back. Never looked right. but it was okay. Well now this time I did it backing into a garage there was this wrought iron basket, not mine. My bumper caught it and it pulled away. It looked bad and couldn't be ignored. What's damaged, I don't know, do I need a new bumper because something got damaged behind it, again, no clue. I came across Carrectly, was impressed by the reviews, also was impressed by the pics of Dixon P's bumper repair. So I sent an email requesting a quote for the repair. Oliver replied fast with an accurate quote and information. He also answer all questions I had. I decided to give them a try. So glad I did! How much time is wasted on dropping off your vehicle? With them none, same for pick up. Yuri was so pleasant and helpful, I inquired about getting a detail, specifically the inside. It really needed it. He gave me some info, but said I should speak to Oliver. At first I was going to go mini, but then went full. When I inquired he told me what they do for each, there was no upsell, no pressure. I will say it looks beautiful. I also had them do some touch up where the paint came off. The gave the exterior a very good wash. I'm very pleased with the whole process, and recommend them highly. I'm proud to be seen with my vehicle again, instead of walking away quickly. You know how it is when you ride looks trashed. So glad I made this choice.

    I asked for a quote to install 2 sway bar brackets and a install sway bar then connect end links to…read moresway bar then to frame in the past this would have taken me 2 hours to do, but recent surgery now prevents me. they quoted me 6.5 hours work and a wheel alignment for so unknown reason since the work i was asking them to do has nothing to change rear wheel alignment but charge $245.00 plus $15.47 parts also $55.00 shop fee ! thats over $1400.00 for a 2 hour job

    I honestly have never had such a great mechanic experience…read more I took my car in for some suspension work, but also had a few other things that needed looked at. I had been taking my car around to a few different shops in the area, and wasn't really having any luck, so I was pretty exhausted by trying to explain everything, but right away, they were just like "we'll just do a full inspection of everything!" I wasn't fully confident that they'd catch much (as other shops had not been able to catch anything going on). I took the car in right as they closed on a Wednesday, and by like 10am the next morning, I was sent a link to TekMetric - an app they use to document their entire process, including photos, diagnoses, and individual notes from the tech. The total on the repairs was MUCH higher than I anticipated, and I was a bit freaked out, but when I called them, I spoke with the person who inspected my car, and we went through each item individually over the phone, and discussed what was immediate safety concerns, things I SHOULD do but could get away with, and things that are more preventative measures that will need to be addressed down the line. They were very upfront with me about the timeline, which was a very quick turnaround. I've seriously have never been so impressed with a shop before. Their labor cost per hour was a little bit higher than what I saw from other local shops, but honestly, for this level of service, and how confident I was moving forward with the work, it was worth it.

    The team did a good job on my car and the repair seems solid. I liked that they explained the…read moreproblem instead of just giving me a bill. The turnaround time was a little longer than quoted, but overall I'm satisfied.
