They advised me that to get into the trans and change that, they should replace the whole transmission for a couple hundred more, otherwise they couldn't guarantee the work. And they charged $150 for this "diagnosis". They wanted thousands of dollars for a new transmission, and I was stuck because I couldn't take the emissions test to renew my plates with a check engine light on. Brought it to Tony's Transmissions, and he replaced the sensor in a few days for a few hundred dollars. I can't remember the exact amount because I paid cash and it was about a year ago, but I just saw his business pop up when I was doing a search and remembered that I should have left him a review back then. He really did great work. Check engine light was off, car passed emissions, and we drove it for another year before selling it a friend for his teenage son. Car is still running strong.

They need 35 psi in the winter because the rims are aluminum and cause the tires to lose air in the extreme cold. Within two and half weeks, I received a warning from Onstar that my tires were at 28 psi with one at 27 psi. They did not lose all that air in that amount of time but were not inflated properly per my request. I took in my older Chevy Malibu which had dashboard lights going on including check engine light and service engine soon light. The tachometer was also not working. Auto Zone read the codes for FREE and I took that printout in with the car. They kept the car for three days. All they did was clear the codes, did not fix the tachometer and by the time I went a mile away from VIP toward Rt. 30, the check engine light was on! This car is older but always well taken care of and garage kept. No attention to detail plus I was charge $99 for nothing vs. Auto Zone putting the car on their computer to test for codes for free.

My car had an issue pop up recently and I found Jack's Automotive on Yelp. The positive reviews is what was encouraging to me because he looked to be honest, knowledgeable, and trustworthy when it comes to working on your vehicle. I explained the issue to Jack and he took a look at my car. I convinced myself the repair was going to take all weekend and was going to be very expensive. Jack called a couple hours later and described the issue and price. I was extremely happy to find out he knew how to fix the issue and the price was extremely affordable. He even had it done by the end of the day! If you are looking around for a great specialist, please give Jack and Jack's Automotive a chance.

Not only is Sam very honest and kind but he was very accommodating to me just basically showing up without much of a notice to get my tire patched up. I hope I don't need additional work done on my truck in the future but if I do, I definitely will not hesitate to return to Sam.
