    Had a severe transmission leak for many years. My confidence is solidified in Vanesa and her brother. Excellent service. Replaced my transmission case with correct year case. My car shifts smoothly and has not one leak to speak of! **They didn't leave a mark or scratch on my paint!** Attention to detail and quality work. I'm dealing with these folks for all of my classics and moderns.

    First initial experience was great but the very end was absolutely horrible. I took my car to SD transmissions because I was having rpm problems and figured it was a transmission issue. I was told that an initial scan of my car would be 90 dollars and any other service with them that 90 dollars would be a credited towards those services (a 90 dollar discount). After the initial scan their employee Jeff (who was helping me all throughout my time there) told me they would have to take my transmission out and do a full check and it would cost 895 dollars plus the 90 dollar credit which would be 805 dollars. That was a lot of money but I needed to figure out what was wrong. After they did the inside check they told me it would be 2900 to fix. (mind my transmission did not need to be replaced) Unfortunately that was too much money for me and I decided to not go through with the services and just sell my car instead. I spoke with a junkyard telling them about my transmission problems and was told I would be getting 940 dollars since the car did still run. The day of pick up I paid Jeff and stupidly paid the 895 dollars without noticing the 90 dollar credit was not given (my own fault). After I paid , my business with SD transmissions was over. Before speaking with the junkyard employee Jeff took it upon himself to lie to the employee and say my transmission needed to be replaced and it was not drivable. I was never told this and would've discussed this with the junkyard while doing my appraisal. Jeff had no right to speak to this man at all because this was my own personal business not regarding him. Due to his lies i was only given 500 dollars. I lost 400 dollars which would've helped me with the almost 900 dollars I just paid. I was lied to and my money was stolen from me and put into a deeper financial hardship. I will never be doing business with SD transmissions ever again.

I dropped the car off at 8:30 a.m. and was told by 2:00 p.m. that the issue was diagnosed as a clock spring and repaired. Upon picking up the vehicle, the squeaking noise was immediately present. I returned to the shop, where the technician sprayed WD-40 into the steering wheel area. The noise subsided for approximately one week and then returned. I contacted the shop again and was instructed to bring the vehicle back. During this visit, I also requested an oil change and tire rotation. I was then informed that my vehicle had an oil leak and that the upper control arms needed to be replaced, which they claimed was the cause of the steering noise. After picking up my vehicle a week later, the squeaking noise was still present. I documented this on video and immediately notified the shop via phone and email. Due to it being Christmas week, I brought the vehicle back the following Monday. Before I was able to do so, while backing out of my garage, I heard severe metal-on-metal grinding, as if the vehicle were coming apart. This noise had never occurred prior to this shop working on my vehicle. I immediately contacted them and was told that other components may need replacement and that they were not responsible. Additionally, after their tire rotation, my custom Range Rover valve stem caps were removed and replaced with mismatched, rusty caps (one was missing entirely). The wheel lock key was left loose in the trunk, and the spare tire cover was not reinstalled. Given the severity of the situation, I filed a formal complaint with my warranty company. They ultimately approved a diagnostic inspection at the Range Rover dealership. The findings were extremely concerning. The dealership documented negligent workmanship by Supreme Auto, including: Bolts not properly tightened Missing fasteners Components left loose As a result, the brake dust shield was dangling and a bolt was rubbing against the rotor, damaging the brake pad and sensors and creating a serious safety hazard. The dealership further confirmed that the original steering wheel noise was caused by a foam component on the steering shaft that required lubrication -- not a clock spring, which Supreme Auto billed and was paid for. To restore my vehicle to a safe operating condition, I am now responsible for $2,967 out of pocket. I provided Supreme Auto with dealership videos, documentation, and reports. Despite this evidence, they offered only $463 to "tighten bolts," while claiming they did not perform brake work. While that is true, the issue was not brake service -- it was improper reassembly and failure to secure critical components affecting steering and braking systems. For the record, my brakes were inspected in August, and this vehicle is not driven daily. Thankfully, my warranty company has since removed Supreme Auto from their approved network. I hope this review prevents others from experiencing a similar situation. All I requested was that they take responsibility and pay the dealership directly to correct the unsafe conditions created by their workmanship. They may deny responsibility, but the evidence -- dealership video, written report, and another independent mechanic review -- clearly documents the cause. This is not acceptable or ethical business practice

Ended replacing all my rotors and brakes. Appreciated his flexibility and genuine demeanor! BONUS: when he was done, he buffed out two fender bender spots that have been bothering me for over a year so easily and free! Truly above and beyond. Would recommend this place to friends and family based on my own experience with Manuel!

Jonathan's customer service was exceptional from start to finish--he was attentive, helpful, and made sure I understood everything about the process. David's professionalism and quickness in repairing my brakes blew me away. My car is driving so much better now, and I am genuinely impressed with the quality of their work. A special thank you to the owner, Emmanuel, who went above and beyond to get me the best deal possible on my brakes and rotors. His diligence and honesty meant a lot, and because of that, I will absolutely be returning to get my rotors replaced or repaired. This visit I used a Groupon, but I wasn't aware that Groupon takes a significant portion of the company's profit. Now that I know, I'll be putting my money directly into their business next time because they truly deserve it. Highly recommend M&M Fast Brakes for anyone looking for trustworthy, fast, and high-quality brake service!

The check engine light was on so we couldn't smog it. Took it up our mechanic in Santee and they found a problem with the catalytic converter. They said one side was bad and recommended Hanson's to get it fixed. I called Hanson's and was able to get an appointment for the next day. While the car was there they found another problem that was an inexpensive fix. They were able to install the cat and make the other fix the same day. Overall I am very impressed with the work, service, and advice/direction I received from Hanson's.

    1 Star - Would Not Recommend…read more I went to Ed Hanson's Muffler for a simple resonator/muffler delete, basic exhaust work. This shop used to have a solid reputation, which is the only reason I chose it. Unfortunately, that no longer seems to be the case. I arrived when they opened and clearly explained that I did not want to be stuck there all day. I don't live close by, and I needed to pick up my daughter from school later. I specifically told them I was completely fine dropping the car off and coming back once it was finished if the job was going to take a while. They laughed and said that wouldn't be necessary, and that they'd be in trouble if a job like this took that long, implying it would be done quickly. Instead, the work dragged on for most of the day. I was repeatedly told it was "almost done," which kept me waiting there instead of leaving. Had they been honest upfront, I would have left and returned later without any issue. During this time, the employee working on the car moved extremely slowly, frequently stopping to socialize, smoke, eat, and take extended breaks. There was no sense of urgency and no respect for my time. Because of this, I nearly ended up late picking up my daughter from school, which was exactly what I was trying to avoid by offering to drop the car off in the first place. To make matters worse, the final result was disappointing. The piping looks sloppy and unprofessional, like basic budget muffler work, yet the price was unreasonably high for the quality delivered. Ed Hanson's may have been a respectable shop at one point, but based on my experience and many others now a days, that standard is no longer there. Don't waste your hard-earned money or your time.
