Kaily offered a complimentary loaner vehicle, allowing me to return my $400+/week (and ugly) rental car from Enterprise (I won't be so nice on their review). Within a day, I got a complete diagnostic report with pictures and videos of all their concerns. I went thru the list with my service/sales rep. Kaily. We set priorities on fixes and they were willing to throw in some of the minor but necessary things (like an oil change). I pretty much agreed to everything except for the tire sensor. In a week, my car was ready to go. I was able to pick it up later that evening via their lock box system. So far, it's running great!

They have an inventory of parts, and they even have a graveyard of old VW vans and beetles to pull parts from. My car simply wouldn't start. They towed it it and found some bad sensor that doesn't show up in the computer scan. Like every repair shop, they upsold me from there ... but at 125,000 miles, I know my car needs what they recommended. And it felt a lot peppier (after they cleaned a partially clogged intake) as I drove it off the lot this morning. This is a small shop, so you'll actually talk to, pay, and pick the car up from the guy who worked on it. It wasn't cheap - but it seemed reasonable. They were happy to explain all that was right and wrong with my car and exactly what they found when they had it torn apart. A friend at work has brought his older Jetta here several times, and had the same positive experience. Each time he brought it in for one thing, but they recommended a fixed a few other things, for a reasonable price, with very noticeable results. Perhaps 15 years ago, before we met, my wife actually brought a well-used VW van here - and back then, all the word-of-mouth referrals were telling her this is the only place to go. Recommended. May get 5 stars with some more visits.

I drove wayyyyy…read moreout of the way to go here--over an hour---to drop off my car and come back another time to pick it up. There are several reasons why I really like this place. 1) All they do is VW's---This leads me to believe that your V-dub will get looked at by someone who knows and has experience on VWs. 2) Down home friendly country folk. I came in shot-the-shit with the bossman for 45 minutes on a quieter afternoon. By the end, we were telling each other jokes. They answer all their phone calls and nothing goes to voicemail or queue. 3) Labor rates are way lower than the dealership. 4) They been around for a long time...how long? I'm not sure but looks like 15 plus years. What else do you need in a good VW mechanic? With that said, I spent a small fraction of what I expected or was willing to pay for my repair...because the mechanic didn't feel certain things I thought needed repairing at that time. Its nice to know that there is someone out there that isn't out to fleece you every time you come.

I'm beyond disappointed and honestly shocked that a business operating like this is still open. If you value your money and your vehicle, stay far away from this place.

He always calls you to discuss your repairs, before working on your car. So, before that next repair, climb out on a that limb and take a dive. Give Mike a call.

Do NOT bring your car here. We dropped off our Range Rover Discovery a week ago and the door was…read moredamaged, with no other damage. Picked up the car today and the paint had some specs in it, and they said they would wet sand it to get the specs out while I waited. It didn't work. Eric Zamora offered me $50 or $100 discount so he wouldn't have to paint the whole door again. He said the paint had a "Lifetime" guarantee. I said that's fine, I would pay the full amount. Drove the car home and then noticed that the passenger side side view mirror was melted. Literally the paint and plastic was melted.....!!!! So I called them and drove all the way back to the shop and Eric was already gone for the day, but his worker said that they looked at a picture from the front of the car and said they could see a shadow showing that the sideview mirror looked "wavey" Bull crap!!! He said they took the mirror and the door off the front passenger side to do work on the rear passenger side, and that they only put the sideview mirror in the car and that it couldn't have gotten damaged.... I said there is NO WAY that my sideview mirror could get MELTED on the top of it while it was on my car. The plastic and paint are literally melted!!! Car is in great condition except the door that had to be repaired. Now they are saying that the MELTED sideview mirror must have already been like that. No pictures of the sideview mirror damage prior to doing the work. They melted the sideview mirror at the shop. Don't know how or who, but it wasn't melted when I dropped it off....... Every place I have ever been too takes detailed pictures of a car to make sure that this exact thing doesn't happen!!! DO NOT GO TO THIS SHOP. BEWARE. Dishonest. Go somewhere else.....

The only downside is the part seemed expensive -marked up a higher than I was expecting. I was charged $250 for a part that cost $145 (72% markup) when the industry average is 35% markup. Aside from that, it was a good experience for this out-of-towner.
