Avoid ATSI as long as they are associated with Dream Nissan. When I made the appt with ATSI I…read moresuspected that the problem I was having may have been the result of work previously done by Dream Nissan which took me 3 visits to resolve and then when I arrive for my scheduled appt with ATSI (now Nightmare Nissan) they do not show that I have a scheduled appt. So I have now driven over 5 miles each way (total 10 + miles) only to have a guy call me to say "oops, our fault, you did have an appointment)". Really unimpressed and will never patronize again and will urge others to look elsewhere when needing service for their vehicles.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE TO SERVICE. I had a few issues I needed looked at. My e brake was felt…read moreas if it was stripped out and not working properly. Ended up being told my passanger rear brake caliper rotor needed replaced. I had a throw out bearing going out in my clutch and my cv joints needed replaced. After the repairs I had a brake still sticking. I took my car in 5 times and each time was told they couldnt find anything. They couldnt get the brake to stick. Fast forward a couple of weeks after the last time i sent it i was heading to work and my whole brake system locked up. Drove it to the nearest mechanic and they said my whole driver rear caliper brake rotor had seized up. Anothe 750 dollar repair... brakes are still sticking. Finally found a real honest compatrnt mechanic who looked over all the work and discovered my brake pad had been out on incorrectly. Causing all the repairs to the brake rotor and caplier to be not fixed and ruined yet again. The new mechanic told me due to my car being a manual a transmission flush was not something i could have done for my car... the amount of time they charged was incorrect and on too of all that when he went to check on the work done my transmission fluid level was low. He said when you replace xv joints sometimes the transmission fluid will leak out. Literally everything this mechanic at ATSI touched was performed wrong, mis diagnosed and clearly not looked at properly because all issues could have been fixed if they were just looked at in the first place. So i desputed the bill and wong the dispute. The manager Gabbie was not happy about that and reached out saying she would be fighting it and all forms of communication would need to be done thru the company from here on out. Yet she reached out to a mutual family member to bash the fact i disputed the shotty work (at best) and involved outside people in our business transaction. Bottom line this company was incompetant to do the job, cost me 6 weeks of being out of work due to their failure to diagnose, fix properly the things needed on the car, and then when telling them something isnt right FIVE MORE TIMES still failed to do their job. It was a nightmare that took 6 months to be resolved and it also cost me a new transmission that i have not yet decided to sue for compensation. And the level of professionalism was at an all time low. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS SHOP FOR EVEN AN OIL CHANGE seeing as a simple brake job they couldnt even out the brake pad on properly. If you do use them oay with credit so you can dispute the crappy service you receive. Save yourself the trouble though and go somewhere that knows how to properly diagnose and fix the correct problems the first or even SECOND time. 5 times and 2 mechanics and 6 months after the initial visit i finally got my car fixed and fixed correctly.

My truck was blowing hot, and I assumed I had a ac line leak. They told me there wasn't a leak, just the control panel needing replaced. They charged $350 to do this, and when I got the truck back it didn't blow at all. They continued by putting 3 or 4 new control panels in, and in the end said they finally fixed it, but now there was a leak and needed another $530 to fix it. I ONLY agreed to continue because they confirmed the truck was blowing properly now. I took it home and it's not blowing at all again. I went in today and they now say it's likely not the control panel at all, but they only agreed to refund $335 dollars or leave the truck with them again after being argumentative and treating me like an idiot. My issue is simply the fact they tried the control panel multiple times, never fixed the blowing issue, lied and said they did so I'd spend another $530 to fix the leak, and now they say it's not the control panel at all. Such a scam. Stay away!!!

The transmission overhaul cost over $700 and that was just his labor and parts, he did not even put the vehicle on his lift and take the trans out to perform the overhaul. Once the transmission was reinstalled and the vehicle was back on the road the transmission made more noise than before. The truck was taken back and he mentioned it was noisy and that he could not hear well enough to diagnose it so more money and repairs were done. Once the time came to do another test drive he proceeded to say that there is nothing wrong with his work that "this transmission" is noisy by design. Interesting that the trans before his repair made less noise. Last a good friend of mine went with me in case I needed a ride if the truck was to be kept until later in the day. My friend and Tim small talked about cars and during the test ride Tim said "Your friend seems to know everything, why didn't he fix it?" So everyone Mike is not trustworthy, credible or a person of integrity.

Alex, the mechanic or the owner of this shop is not an honest person and he was being so rude. He tried to charge me the four-wheel alignment fee but he never has done the job. Because I found both rear tires still not parallel, and they still have the angles like before. When sometimes I ask why we should do this repair, he just said that ' are you an expert of this, why I should explain to you!' (WTF?!} He has a tendency to sexual harassment. He has tried several times to touch my wife`s hands and hug her, makes her feel uncomfortable. His language is very rude, he said: 'ok, of course, you can do the math cause you already graduated from high school.' when I was calculating the price that I need to pay which to make sure he doesn`t charge me extra.
