Years ago I was driving my 2002 dodge ram down the street in my neighborhood and a guy waved me…read moredown and told me that it sounded like my rear end was going out. He had me drive next to him and he listened and told me it was definitely going out and that his relative had a shop and directed me here. I took it down and got the truck repaired. The prices were very reasonable and the mechanics were wonderful! Ever since then I take my vehicles there for pretty much everything. They are honest and reasonable with prices. They don't try to sell you things you don't need! I used to get my oil changed at the dealership because it was actually really cheap, but the organization for appointments was horrible and I had to leave my car all day for an oil change. S&S was just slightly more and closer to my house, so I will always pay the extra $10 or so for the great service!

Then when I got them to bring it down to 240$. They did the job wrong! The brakes kept squeaking and whistling and took it back another day and they said that's they didn't have time. Basically refusing service and allowing me to drive off with a bad break job which was putting myself and family in danger. When I took them to another mechanic they said that's they put the outer break pad in the inner side and vice versa. I believe they did that on purpose. They also tried sourcing me cheaper parts because they said that there dropping the price of labor for me which is BS because I'm paying for the parts, not them. Antonia is a snake and he will scam you for every cent you have. Not only that but he searched up my address of living before quoting me. I guess he wanted to see how my house looked like before quoting me.

Made the mistake of taking it to one of those smog places by the DMV first, and was quoted an outrageous amount and didn't really leave feeling all warm and fuzzy. Brought the car to A-1, and after the first 2 minutes of talking to the owner Tanner, we knew this was the right place. He was very knowledgeable, explained what was going on with the car, why it wasn't passing smog, and after that, we felt very confident in leaving our car here. We pretty much decided that even if his quote came in at the same price as the other, we were more confident in their knowledge and ability and if it did inded cost that much, it would be done right. They diagnosed the car, got back to us promptly and to our delight, the quote came in MUCH MUCH lower than the first place. It took about a day and a half for everything to be fixed, it passed smog and is running great! Definitely coming back with any and all car problems/needs. You can tell these guys are straight shooters, and not trying to nickle and dime you!

I laughed about it with the mechanic and he offered to burn the offending wire for me. As I said, nothing better than experience. I highly recommend this business.
