DO NOT trust Angel with your car. After my car had been sitting for about a month because I was out of town, there was a loud thumping sound coming from my rear tire. I was going out of town for a week, and I asked my dad to take it in, and he did. Angel said it was the muffler casing, and he "fixed it". Came back from vacation, the car was still making the sound. I was going out of town again, so I asked my dad to take it back in. Throughout that entire time, the farthest I drove the car was about 15 minutes on city roads - no freeways, no long drives, just a couple of short city drives. When I came back from that trip, my dad told me that the rear end of the car was failing - the differential was failing, and the rim was bent and that because I "drove on it so much" it was a lost cause - that it'd cost more to fix it than the car is even worth. He said it'd last another 6 months to 2 years on city roads, and not to take it on the highway because it could seize. So, since I was moving to a different state in less than a month, I was scrambling to get some money for the car, and find a used one that I could make work with the small budget I had - since I'm 19. I ended up talking to my neighbor who was a car salesman for 35 years who said he didn't trust Angel from his own experience and asked to test drive the car. He drove it and said that he wasn't worried about it like Angel seemed to be and suggested we took it to his friend Chris at Dynamic Auto Repair in Farmington Hills. So we took it out there after hours and dropped it off and they let me know at 9:45AM the following morning that the issue was with the brake rotor - front and rear needed to be replaced, and the brake pads too, and that they could do it the same day and have me pick it up later that day. They were quick to contact me with the quote, assured me that the brakes were the issue, and actually took it out themselves to test drive it before and after the service to make sure the car was fixed and functional. So we had them fix the brakes and now the car - which if we'd listened to Angel, would've been sold to someone else and we would've spent thousands on a used car - was fixed for 1k and will now continue to last me at least a couple more years (it's a 2010). I'm thankful I got a second opinion, because if we'd blindly listened to Angel we would've spent a lot more time and money when we could've had it fixed and ready to go in less than 24 hours. DO NOT come here. DO NOT trust him with what he says about your car. Take it somewhere else, even take it to Dynamic Auto Repair and they'll give you much better and reliable treatment and care for your vehicle as it if were their own. read more
