I brought my Jeep Wrangler in 59 Auto repair to review electrical issues. I previously took it to…read moremy Jeep dealership who insisted it was a battery issue even though each time the problem would reoccur. 59 found issue, corrected it, and charged me a very reasonable price. Afterwards I had no electrical issues. If you have a Jeep, I would highly recommend 59 auto repair.

My problem wasn't diagnosed during the first visit & the alarm light was no longer showing so they…read moreonly charged 100.00 (on top of the $290 something that I had to pay just to bring it in.) Within a mile of driving it the light was back on, I had scheduled another appointment for a week later for something unrelated. When I came in for that appointment (which included a diagnosis) they said that they couldn't diagnose it & that I would have to make a separate appointment & pay for them to address something that they didn't initially take care of. When they called to give me the diagnosis for the second visit, there was something fishy about how it was being handled & I was told that one repair would cost over $2000.00 & a second repair would cost over $5000.00 & the story kept changing (plus I was told that my car wasn't safe to drive.) I wasn't having any issues with my car until they told me during the first visit where they never fixed what it was brought in there in the first place. I read some negative reviews that described my situation to a "t" so I told them that I wasn't having any going to get a second opinion. They called backed twice trying to scare me into getting my car repaired by them. Even when I came in that first time I didn't feel like they gave much regard to me with regards to customer service, it was more about what was convenient for them & I was dismissed.

In May 2022 the owner and I agreed to terms, and contracted his shop to complete my engine swap,…read moreturn key running. 3-4 month turnaround for $3500 half due upfront. Most parts required were already purchased and/or with the vehicle inc. a new wiring harness. In June was told work was going to begin. I visited the shop in July, NOTHING had been done except cover my car with plastic. I expressed concern with the lack of progress and contact. I was assured that it would get done and better communication would occur. Two more months (Aug & Sep), more parts were requested and delivered and more excuses for lack of progress. Early October was told engine and trans would be mated the next day. Two weeks later I again called the owner and expressed my displeasure with his lack of progress up to this point. November- more excuses of waiting on tools (plasma cutter) to finish. December- was texted that the cutter arrived, pics from him sent showing them using a cutting wheel, no plasma cutter. More delays with HVAC system work never performed. Middle of February 2023- Was told project almost complete with startup by the end of the week. No contact for a month. March- Asked about startup, no startup, more excuses about a wiring issue when given a brand new wiring harness at the beginning. April- reported wiring issues resolved, startup that week. May- My wife went to shop and took pictures of my car as they are only open on weekdays. NONE of the work reported complete was done except the wiring harness being plugged in, only the engine mounted in the car, and subframe spacers installed. And mind you that I was dealing with my mothers terminal cancer and eventual death right after mid October which he promised the car would be done before. June- I arrived unannounced to pick up my property and terminate contract. The owner reneged on his own prior commitment of a full refund he made to my wife prior, and after some arguing, I agreed to 51% of my deposit back. This didnt include, the promise to replace my engine stand he lost the adapter plate to, the stale check he wrote me, the 2nd check I got his bank wouldnt cash, the call to local police, multiple trips to and from his bank , nor the fact he had to show up personally for his bank to cash the check. Fast forward to today. I am just getting back to the project car, after sitting in storage. I find that the brackets from my radiator/intercooler kit were missing, an $1100 new wiring harness was cut/damaged in multiple spots and missing a critical connector, my engine stand STILL NOT replaced. I dont know if, or what else I will find wrong due to this owner's incompetence and duplicity. I'm pretty sure the owner will jump on here and say I'm lying, however I have ALL the texts and pictures to PROVE all of the OWNER'S lies and shady tactics. STAY AWAY FROM THIS BUSINESS unless you want shoddy work or no work done at all and be lied to your face. You have been WARNED!

My son bought headlights off of eBay and they didn't work. I suggested he just bring the car up…read moreto Central Auto and have them replace the headlights. Central was instructed to give us back the headlights so they could be returned to eBay. They did not give them back to us. So I went up there to get them back and they had them so problem solved. NOPE!!! The headlight lenses are scratched up and the body of the lenses are chipped up. There is no way to return them now even though they are defective. Central Auto is taking no accountability for messing up the lenses. I WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN NOR WILL I RECOMMEND THEM!!! Shady ass place!!!

I have nothing positive to say. Took my daughters CADILLAC in for some ordinary repairs. It was…read morethere for over a week. After picking the car up we discovered it was still out of alignment. Reached out again, took the car back for another alignment., left it AGAIN for days. STILL the car is out of alignment. After consulting another repair shop we were told that it was likely never aligned, period. In the process we have ruined two brand new tires. We had also replaced the rear struts at Central and have been advised that the parts they used were of the lowest quality and need to be replaced. It has only been two months. There was a bit of a language barrier but I'm not sure if it was truly an issue or out of convenience. If you're also a gringo, I would take my money elsewhere. We have spent over $3,000 here and wasted at least $1,000. It's unfortunate.

The reason I continue to go is because of the professionalism, timely / effective repairs and most importantly the cost.

It is a family run business that cares about their customers. Thanks to Last Chance Auto! Don't want to see you again soon, but if I have to I know we are in great hands.

Turns out, lucky me, the transmission was on back order. Took a about a month for it to arrive. Once I was able to pick up my car k thought it would be smooth sailing. Due to various issues, some which were the fault of the shop. I ended up having to return about 4 times. The only reason I did not get as upset as I should have is because the guys were great. Great customer service. They kept me in the loop as to what was going on. I really liked the staff. I would go back again because good customer service is hard to find these days. The mechanics and the guys at the front desk were great!!

The first review that I made was really good and I like their service but after that service i had another car issue that popped up a month or two later and they would check out my car again. It got to the point where they were unable to fix my car but it kept trying to charge me for stuff that wasn't guaranteeing it to be fixed. This place was taken advantage of my kindness and they were having my car for a couple weeks but not doing anything with it. They charged me almost $900 just to change a spark plug. That makes no sense at all and it took a few hours just to do it. When I got my car back one time I found a cigarette butt too in the air filter. The fees that they have here are just ridiculous. I eventually just said that I just had enough my car because it's beyond repair and it was probably more cheaper in the long run to buy a new car than to keep giving Bartels my money for something that will never be fixed. My heart is broken because I really enjoyed coming here and I brought a few people over to give them a try. I will look elsewhere still for the time being for a new repair person for when my current car wants to throw in a towel.
