I had a cracked air intake hose and got a wild idea that I could replace it myself. I got about 98% of the way but just could not get that last clamp on for the life of me. Took it in, they patched me right up. Above and beyond and didn't make me feel too proud for my attempting at saving a buck or two. Anyway, would highly recommend them to anyone who needs their car looked at. With a 12-year-old Civic, I'll be back.

First things first, we have used Ron's for several occasions and multiple cars. Each time, they…read morehave been thorough, communicative, transparent, reliable, and timely. Their level of communication is top tier. They call with updates, give honest feedback if they find other issues while working on the car, discuss the quotes and the pros/cons. I can't say enough about that! I'm currently writing this while I'm in the midst of dealing with another mechanic for transmission work and it's been an absolutely terrible experience in contrast to working with Ron's shop. Ron's has truly set the bar for what to expect and I'm so sad we didn't just take the car to them initially. If you're looking for a reliable, honest, communicative mechanic, go to Ron's!

This was done on an older Jeep that we've had for 15 years. It always passes smog, but we never found someone who we like enough to return to. We finally found our spot!

Spoke with Andy originally, who seemed very nice and friendly. She transferred me, and the guy I spoke with, Rick I think his name was, wasn't very friendly at all, and didn't seem like he wanted my business, so I trusted my gut and didn't book the appointment. I wish I had a different experience. I saw they had lots of good reviews here and on Google was why I reached out in the first place.

I always appreciated how they treated me when I came in - very professional and never condescending. On another note, when my son's car finally gave up the ghost, they allowed him to keep it there for a short time. I had to go in the other day to meet with the Cash for Cars guy and I am so grateful to this sweet, young lady named Kayla at John's who deserves a big shout out. First of all, it was hot, and she welcomed us in to this wonderfully air conditioned room, offering sodas, water or coffee as though we actual customers. Then she offered to help get stuff out of the car, brought the dealer in to us and continued to be helpful and kind. A really nice man, Brian came out of his office and offered a form for those who don't have the actual Pink Slip, which I discovered we didn't. At one point, the dealer came in shaking his head saying "no deal" because he couldn't see the VIN # on the windshield alluding that it had been scraped off and didn't match thr door VIN. He then promptly left. Kayla, having heard that he couldn't see the VIN, promptly ran back out to the car and discovered it was covered up by a Soapy Joe's sticker. She then ran back out to where his truck was parked to let him know. In the end, we still didn't get it sold bc we couldn't find the actual Pink Slip (which I told him about when he first got there), and he apparently didn't want to bother with the form. I felt like a spectacle in their office but everyone was so friendly and positive and helpful toward us that it made me feel ok. I shouldn't have been surprised because they have always been this way. This is how the world should be! This is how we should treat one another. I felt so grateful and I will be taking in a plate of something special for them as a result. On a.side and final note of observation, I overheard one of the other girls answer the phone and was so impressed with her professionalism and kindness to the caller. I bring it up because it means a lot to know you are being spoken to with dignity and kindness. Anywho, thank you John's and thank you Kayla for making my day just a little more special!!

On 4/14 I brought in an Escalade after replacing the rear brakes because it started throwing multiple warning lights, even though the ABS sensor and brakes were already replaced. I understand newer vehicle technology can sometimes cause glitches even with simple repairs, so I trusted they'd be able to diagnose and fix it. They charged a $130 diagnostic fee, which I was completely fine with. The next day, they said they needed to reset the computer for $390. Since I had already paid for the diagnostic and was told it would go toward the repair, I agreed. The following day, I was told they couldn't reset it and that I'd need a new module for $3,468.54. I declined and decided to get a second opinion from our regular mechanic. I still paid the $390 plus a $13.65 service charge, which I later found out was a credit card fee. The next day, I took the vehicle to our regular mechanic. Within 2 hours, they cleared the stored codes and the vehicle was ready, total cost: $120. No waiting days, no module replacement, and no unnecessary upsell. I waited a couple of weeks before writing this review to make sure the issue didn't come back, and also spoke with Barry to see if anything could be done about the $403.65 I paid. I felt it was unfair to be charged for a service that ultimately wasn't completed. I would've been completely fine just paying the $130 diagnostic fee. Unfortunately, he declined, stating the charge was for their time. I understand time was spent, but from a business standpoint, I wouldn't feel right charging a client for a repair that wasn't successfully completed, especially when the vehicle left in the same condition it arrived. Because of this experience, I wouldn't return or recommend this shop to others. I think it's important for people to know that you may end up paying for work that doesn't actually resolve the issue.

Sadly, Harry has retired, but he has left the reins in the very capable hands of John, who is proving to be a worthy successor! If you visit Sam Lee's, keep in mind that you may notice an accent or a very different feel from the polished experience of a large corporate shop. But honestly, that's part of what makes this place special. What matters is the quality of the work, honesty, fairness, and trustworthiness of the people behind the business. I've never felt like they were trying to upsell me, take advantage of me, or simply make a quick dollar. Recently, my family's truck had a strange issue while driving through the Grapevine. Thankfully, it only happened once and could never be replicated, but because safety comes first, we brought it to Sam Lee's. John personally took the time to hook up the truck, check it thoroughly, drive it around, and spend two full days trying to diagnose the issue. In the end, he couldn't find anything wrong and while that might sound like "nothing happened," to us, his time, effort, and expertise meant everything. We left knowing the truck had been properly checked rather than simply being handed a bill for unnecessary repairs. We also had the oil changed since it was nearly due. I'm always happy to support a local business that genuinely cares about its customers and community rather than treating hardworking people like an opportunity to make a quick buck. One small thing to understand is that the staff is busy and wears a lot of hats to keep things running. You may occasionally need to call and follow up, but I'd much rather have a hardworking team taking their time to do things right than a huge company rushing through customers where all they see are dollar signs instead of the person in front of them. Thank you again to John and the entire team at Sam Lee's! Your honesty, hard work, and commitment to taking care of people and their vehicles are exactly why I'll continue supporting this business. Keep up the great work!

John is a creepy older asian man who kept commenting on how good/pretty I look, asking me about how many babies I've had, how lucky my boyfriend is, and FORCED me into a hug.
