I am grateful for his hard work. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I ALWAYS recommend this shop for the fact that they've never been wrong and have always been honest.

The true core Value of running a business is the treatment of the consumer which I hold in high regard. A while ago. I had a issue with my tire and they treated me kind , then I needed a new Tire ( second experience with them ) I needed to replace the tire so I went back (They treated me very well then ) Today was my 3rd experience with them. 3 different issues completely different years of service... As they may service tons of people and not remember me personally ( to my surprise they actually did have my previous encounter stored and knew exactly which tire they replaced) I certainly remembered how they treated me in the past.TODAY WAS NO DIFFERENT they had me in and out of there and my experience was just as pleasant.

I recommend everyone STAY AWAY from this business. My sister called Car Pros 1 and she was told I…read morecould bring my car in to have the engine removed but that they wouldn't be able to get to it until after the weekend (I had my car towed to Car Pros 1 on a Friday). During the first two weeks they had my vehicle, I called them several times and left messages. Once when I called, Carl answered and told me he wasn't sure what was happening with my vehicle but that he would find out and call me back. My calls were not returned. After the third week, I finally reached Carl on the phone again. I asked Carl why they hadn't started working on my car, and he said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, I don't know, maybe because we're busy!" They were supposed to take the engine out and deliver it to Modesto Engine-Renu, then reinstall it when Engine-Renu was done rebuilding it. They were very aware of this from the beginning but came up with a bunch of excuses. When asked why they didn't call me, why they didn't communicate with me, neither had a clear, sensible answer. The fiasco continued until finally, Car Pros delivered my engine to Modesto Engine Re-Nu, who rebuilt my engine in 2 weeks and returned it to Car Pros. Then the delays continued. My sister took over communication with Carl and/or Mishu, hoping they would do their job. Carl told my sister two different times that my engine would be ready on a certain date and that he would have the total cost ready for her. He never called her, and the delays continued. All in all, Car Pros had my vehicle for a total of 7 weeks! They billed for 17 hours labor which took them 7 weeks to complete, SEVEN WEEKS!!! Car Pros broke the hood prop rod retainer and the hood prop was just lying on the engine. An employee said he would "...get one from another car!" It didn't fit and the employee said Carl would have to order it (as if I would EVER take my car back to that crappy excuse of a garage). I called Car Pros to tell them my fog lights and cruise control weren't working (left a message on Mishu's voicemail). Car Pros never returned my call !!! To top it off, they charged substantially more than their estimate. If you take your vehicle to Car Pros 1 in Modesto for any reason, you are playing Russian Roulette with your car's repairs. Any response to this review from this business will be more garbage, I assure you, as this place is shifty and downright dishonest.

I had no issues with him being rude or anything like that, nice guy, I went out and let him know my problem with the car occasionally not starting right away and he took a look and let me know what the issue was and we scheduled him to come back a few days later on Tuesday for the fix, $75 to look at the car but he puts that money into the fix cost if you chose him to fix your car, I thought that was cool. He came back on Tuesday to replace the fuel pump and purge valve canister on my car and sent me a text when he was done with the repair. I was able to leave my keys in the car so he could just come and make the fix while I was at work, so that part was nice at least. That same day, on my lunch break, I went to swap the car I was driving with my newly "fixed" car. I was happy it started with no issue at first but when I was leaving from work later on, it had the same not starting issue it had before. I text him letting him know it was having the same issue as before that same Tuesday, he let me know it may be a faulty part and he can come check out what went wrong, I let him know I appreciated that and to let me know when he's available, that was on Tuesday, I waited till Friday for a response and nothing, so I text him asking for an update and he said that following Tuesday he will be passing by 3-4Pm, well Tuesday was yesterday and he no showed, didn't text or call me to say he needed to reschedule which I would have been fine with as long as he let me know. I left work early so I could be home 3-4PM yesterday and he just didn't show up. I would have preferred if he just mentioned he's not available to come again or be honest about whatever. I'm an understanding person so I wouldn't have issues with honesty or whatever may have come up. The total cost ended up being $750 for anyone that's curious. Unfortunately for me, I had to call another mechanic to come and take a look at my car this week to see what went wrong or if the issue was something else entirely. Good experience at the beginning but ended up down $750 and my car still having the same issue.
