They charged me $30 to look at t and provided an a free vehicle look over on other things. They let me know that it was indeed leaking and found an additional leak. They sent me a quote and I was flabbergasted at the price. The first original leak repair was quoted for $2,700. They did find another leak that would cost me an additional $1500 to repair . Way more than I was planning. I talked to a gearhead at my work and he said absolutely do not pay that. He said they do this to women, unfortunately. I talked to two other local shops who quoted me for everything on the original repair for $800 and $1100. Those quotes were for everything 17th Street was going to do for $2,700. I hate that companies do this. The icing on the cake was that when I drove my car home, I popped the hood and they didn't even attach the cover to the motor. It was just laying cockeyed on the top. It makes me question what else they didn't reinstall after looking over my car.

Completely unacceptable, frustrating experience…read more I paid $1,338 for front brakes and calipers, and within six months I was still having braking issues. When I returned, they replaced only one front rotor under warranty. After a third visit for the same braking noise/vibration, I was told the problem was my rear brakes, even though those had been replaced only three months earlier at another shop. I then went to three independent shops, and all confirmed the real issue was a warped front rotor (the one not replaced the second time I brought it in). This should've been fixed the second or third time I brought it in. Instead they shifted blame to another shop, in which their work was confirmed to be fine. And for the price I paid, I shouldn't have had to bring it in multiple times for the same issue. Still after three visits and over $1,300 spent, my issue was still not properly fixed. The only good thing about this experience was that it was under warranty, and another shop was able to fix my brakes properly. I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before trusting this shop, and if possible save your time and go elsewhere.

I brought my vehicle to GearHead because of the positive reviews, but unfortunately, my experience…read morehas left me extremely disappointed and seriously questioning whether I can trust this shop with my vehicle again. When I initially brought my vehicle in, I paid for a full diagnostic and repair of a radiator hose leak. I also reported a very slow oil leak and a rattling noise. To this day, I still do not have an explanation for the rattling noise, despite paying for a full diagnostic. One of the most upsetting parts of this entire experience is that I was specifically told my vehicle was unsafe to drive. Because of that, I followed their recommendation and rented a vehicle while mine was in their possession. I spent over $1,000 on a rental car because I believed my own vehicle could not safely be driven. Imagine my surprise when I picked up my vehicle and discovered that nearly 60 miles had been added to it while it was at the shop. If my vehicle was unsafe for me to drive, why was it safe enough for the shop to put nearly 60 miles on it? I was told the mileage was accumulated because they needed to test a bad part, and I was offered a discount. However, I still do not understand why nearly 60 miles of test driving would be necessary, particularly when I was later told that the suspected bad part still needed to be ordered and replaced. The part is currently in the mail, and I am supposed to bring my vehicle back to have it installed. That alone made me uncomfortable, but unfortunately, the problems did not end there. About a week later, I went to have my tires serviced elsewhere and discovered that my wheel/rim lock key kit was missing. I immediately contacted GearHead and was told that because they did not need to remove my tires, they could not have been responsible. I am extremely particular about keeping track of my wheel lock key kit because I know how easily these items can be misplaced at repair shops. I specifically did not check for it when I picked up my vehicle because none of the work I authorized should have required removing the wheels. After that conversation, I went through my trunk more carefully and discovered that my splash guard is also missing. The splash guard was brand new and had not yet been installed because I was waiting for the leak to be repaired. I am currently waiting for a return call regarding that as well. At this point, I am livid. My wheel lock key kit will cost me over $100 to replace. My brand-new splash guard is missing. I spent over $1,000 renting a vehicle because I was told mine was unsafe to drive, only to discover that nearly 60 miles were put on my supposedly unsafe vehicle while it was in the shop. On top of all of that, I still do not have an answer regarding the rattling noise that was part of the reason I paid for a full diagnostic in the first place. Communication has also been inconsistent. Employees seem to rotate frequently, and people I previously dealt with are suddenly no longer there. That makes continuity and accountability extremely difficult and raises even more concerns for me as a customer. What concerns me most is that I am supposed to return my vehicle once the ordered part arrives. After everything that has happened, I genuinely do not feel comfortable bringing my vehicle back. I chose GearHead because its reviews gave me confidence that my vehicle would be handled professionally. Instead, I am now out the money I paid for repairs and diagnostics, over $1,000 for a rental, and potentially the cost of replacing my wheel lock key kit and brand-new splash guard. I am giving GearHead the opportunity to address the missing property, the nearly 60 miles placed on my vehicle after I was told it was unsafe to drive, the unresolved rattling noise, and the overall lack of communication. I sincerely hope management takes this seriously and makes this situation right. As it currently stands, this entire experience has been completely unacceptable.

Living over 2 hours away, I needed someone who was trustworthy, reliable and who would give an honest take on what would be my son's first car that he would purchase on his own. Not only did Daniel respond immediately to my request, he was able to inspect the car within 12 hours. He helped my son dodge a major bullet and was very thorough, considerate and kind when delivering the information. He sent multiple photos and explained in detail the condition of the car and areas that were easy fixes and ones that were potentially not. He even gave suggestions of where to find better options with more reputable sellers. He genuinely seemed to care about his safety. If you are looking for an integral, reliable and professional mechanic, look no further than Daniel Burns. The fact that he charged me 1/2 what other mechanics quoted me was icing on the cake.
