BE AWARE !! I'm very disappointed with this shop. My 23 year old daughter brought her 2013 Bmw328i in because it was reading a code 0172. Her step dad and uncle had followed the recommendations in order to resolve the problem. They replaced the fuel injectors and the MAP sensor. The vehicle was still reading the code. At this point my daughter's boyfriend talked her into taking it to Mikes Auto clinic in Nampa. The first thing they replaced was the fuel gasket. This was a red flag because this is not what she took the vehicle into the shop for. And there were no codes stating this was an issue. Before returning the vehicle they told her she needed a new timing chain. After 5 weeks of being told almost every day the vehicle would be done the next day, they were finally done with the vehicle. I went with her to pick the vehicle up. Once we were there Cody (employee of Mike's Auto clinic) explained that they do not have mechanics that replace timing chains on foreign cars such as my daughters and they basically did this as a favor for her and this is why it took so long to complete. He also explained that in order to replace the timing chain, he had to take it to a dealership to be able to get a code that only a dealership is authorized to give during the replacement of a timing chain. Included in the paperwork that she was given the day she picked up her vehicle was a paragraph or two from the dealership that had given the code to program the timing chain. It stated that she would needs her MAP sensor replaced and she had a leak in her turbo. Minus the leak in the turbo this is the exact issue she brought it in for in the first place! My daughter has at this point paid them $6,500 to replace a fuel gasket and timing chain and is still sitting with the original issue that she entrusted them to fix. While driving it home that day she noticed the same issues that she originally brought it into them to repair so the next day she brought it back to them and they agreed to address and repair the issues without charge being that that's why she originally left the vehicle in their care to repair. A day or so later they have her come get the vehicle and tell her that they can't repair it because the MAP sensor in the vehicle is still under warranty but it's a simple fix the one that her step dad put in is not the correct sensor she needs a higher performance sensor. This is the MAP sensor her step dad replaced before she brought it into them. I'm appalled that they would not have told her that when she originally brought the vehicle into them. Also being that her step dad is the one that replaced the MAP the warranty is not of concern. It was a $100 part that we would have been more than happy to authorize them to remove it and order the correct one and replace it. Additionally, the BMW is 10 times louder now than when she brought it in. There was no problem with her turbo when she brought it in and after they have her vehicle for almost two months it suddenly has a turbo leak and sounds like a jet plane. After picking the vehicle up for the last time her step dad opened the hood and noticed that vacuum line was not even connected (shown in video ) . Her full tank of fuel is down to 1/4 tank. The car has dirt and debris under the hood and on the inner rim of the trunk that was not there when she left the vehicle with them. My daughter is a single mother and has worked very hard for this vehicle. Her father was murdered several years back and foreign cars were their thing. Shes so proud to follow in her father's footsteps and this has crushed her. She trusted this shop and they took advantage of her. Basically stole from her and returned her vehicle in worse condition than when she left it with them (it's now reading three codes, the original code plus two more ) I'll be contacting an attorney to help her with this. I'm writing this review to let the public know be cautious of this shop. And if you have a foreign vehicle be advised that they do not have the mechanics qualified to work on your vehicle.

See all

I wanted to give a huge thank you to Jeff and the rest of the team at Morales Repair. I have my…read moredrivers side manifold go out on my Ram, and they got me in the following week. They got my truck squared away ahead of time and kept me updated throughout the process. The prices are absolutely fair, and it was so nice interacting with a legitimate shop that doesn't try to gouge you on pricing or unnecessary repairs. With their vehicle inspections, they caught an alignment issue that I had been worried about for a couple years and was promised by another shop that it wasn't a problem. They recommended I take it to Big O next door and just as they had thought, the alignment was severely off. I has been driving like this for almost 2 years and no other shop caught this ! They have earned a customer for life and I will be coming here for all my repair needs. Truly lucky that I found this place and I would 1000000% recommend them.

Read your response Roel and as I mentioned to you and Jeff I do not daily drive my truck, my trip…read moreto lucky peak and McCall is how it had the 600 miles. Other than the 2 trips it sits in my garage and I told you both this. Second the very small indentation you tried to point out I was aware of as well as a similar one on the driver back quarter panel. Your attempt to somehow point out that I am not aware of something of other blemishes is totally ridiculous and does not prove anything but a sad attempt to deflect. Third, no response regarding something so basic as making sure the customers hood is closed before leaving your shop. Sip, nothing regarding that mistake Roel! As I said in my initial review, very put off by approach and comments and will not recommend them nor will I ever take a vehicle back to them.

I have only been there twice but I may have them do my regular service on my O7 Mustang I went in…read morethere a few days ago to see if they could do some quick work on short notice and I told them that my AC fan on our F 150 was making a noise they because my wife needed a vehicle with a working AC because her other one was in another shop in Meridian. They told me that they would try I waited there for the vehicle and they took care of the problem In less than an hour. Most other shops would not even consider getting something done on short notice like that. I am very happy with their service.

WHIT'S HAS LOST ME AS A CUSTOMER Over the last couple years…read moreI've taken both my Ford truck and my Honda CRV to Whit's and until now, didn't have any problems. When I went to sell the CRV in May of this year ('26) a prospective buyer took it to a local Honda dealership for pre-sale inspection. The buyer came back to me saying it needed extensive work, including the rear rotors and brake pads. Not having had good results at dealer's shops in the past, we took it to another mechanic (more conveniently located in Boise). That mechanic said most of the work that the dealer said needed to be done did not need to be done, but that the rear rotors and brakes did, in fact, need to be done. I had already secured a new buyer in Oregon and was under a time constraint to complete the purchase, so I had the Boise shop do the work. Two days after the car was fixed, I completed the sale of my CRV to the customer. Later, when looking at our paperwork file for the CRV, I realized that I paid Whit's $232.00 to do the rear rotors and brakes just recently in September of 2025; it had only been 5,000 miles since they purportedly did that work. And yet, both the Honda dealer and a separate mechanic each said that the rear rotors and brakes needed to be done. Because the sale of the CRV happened quickly, we did not have the opportunity to take the car back to Whit's before I paid the Boise mechanic to do this work. Hoping they would address the overcharge, I stopped by Whit's and asked them what they could do to make this right. Their repeated answer was, "without seeing the car, nothing." When I told them that two separate auto shops agreed separately that the rear brakes needed to be re-done Whit's still refused to address the situation. When I suggested that one simple way to redress their oversight was to offer me a free oil change as a token they still refused. (An oil change would be about half the cost of rear brakes and rotors, to me, but it would have represented some ownership of their failure and would have been a gesture of good will.) Then, on the computer, Whit's checked their records. It wasn't one of their two less capable mechanics who had done my CRV's rear brakes six months ago, it was their "best" mechanic. But the testimony of two separate auto shops makes clear that Whit's either didn't do the work at all or did such a bad job of it that it had to be redone 5,000 miles later. And that was from their "best" mechanic. An hour after I got back home Whit's phoned me. They wanted to see the receipt from the Boise mechanic's shop, to verify that the rear brakes & rotors had been done. I e-mailed that receipt to them. Yes, Whit's saw, the Boise shop did the brake work. Still? Whit's said that since they didn't actually see the CRV they would not do anything to redress their mistake. If you were charged for work that needed to be done just six months later what would you think? Would you return and do business with a company that refused to address their (at best) oversight?
