It is ridiculous to spend 400 on a headlight swap (parts were already paid for, so it was service alone) and then be told to go to a body shop for shims and spend even more money. Wouldn't have had you replace the headlights if you didn't know how to, don't waste your time coming here. If they can't align headlights, imagine how bad serious mechanical issues could be treated... SCARY! Now for the 2nd time of bringing the vehicle in... Dykstras has no answers for aligning headlights... I am truly fearful for anyone who has mechanical issues worked on here in their vehicles if these people can't even figure out how to line up some headlights. Thanks Dykstras, would have had anyone else work on this if I would've known the "best you can do" was in the pics attached.. just shocked a car shop can be okay ethically with having an 18 year old drive off with this... how is she supposed to see???

I took my car in to have them try and patch it to keep from inflating the tire every morning. It helped and got me through for about a month. Told me they worked with Tire Rack and that if I found new wheels I liked, to call up and let them know so they could quote the install. The job came in over $100 less than if I had ordered the wheels myself and taken them to another shop. The process was seamless and I could not be happier! They shared my excitement, which made the customer service that much better. My car is a 2011 Chrysler 300c and it looks brand new! The pictures speak for themselves

They had to fix my front bumper and I had to take it back three times for it to be how it should! I'm a woman and they always talk down to me. My car was leaking transmission fluid and they said 'oh that's normal'. I'm sorry but that's not normal for a vehicle to leak transmission oil. They did end up working on the transmission and then my vehicle started making a noise that did not occur when I dropped it off, when I asked they 'had no idea what the issue was'. An employee of theirs admitted that when they don't know how to do something they YouTube it, really? I had to buy a new vehicle because they YouTube'd something and ruined my vehicle.

I have spent in the ballpark of $15k in repairs between all three vehicles and I wouldn't think of trusting anyone else with my vehicles, they go above and beyond. You will never be overcharged for parts, labor or unnecessary repairs which is rarer than you would think and they are as honest as they come. Over my lifetime I have been screwed over by every mechanic I have had at some point or another, mostly by dealerships and I can assure you the quality of work is much better and much less expensive. If you are looking for a mechanic you can trust with your money and your vehicles, this is the place, I will never go anywhere else.

I had heard some noises coming from our the Rear Final Drive Assembly on my 2019 Nissan Rogue. Josh later took the vehicle for a spin, hoisted it, checked a few things, and reached out to me about his findings. He presented me with some facts about the symptom and its remedy. He also explained to me the likelihood of other potential, very expensive drive line failures that could be imminent. He could have persuaded me to make a repair to the Rear Drive Final Assembly and taken my money. Instead, he dealt honestly, giving me the opportunity to make a wise decision based on his experienced perspective. The potential future investments involved were sobering. He did not attempt to persuade me in any way (for or against repair), just honestly told me what was happening, what was historically likely to happen next, and the costs for both. This I see as integrity. Wow, what refreshing experience. I so appreciate the integrity of the Kaz team. They have won a customer! I highly, highly recommend going to see them. FYI, Josh didn't ask me to write this. It wasn't written by Ai. I wasn't paid for this review. I am just grateful for Josh and the Kaz team. I simply felt that others should be aware and that, as Proverbs 3:27 says, "Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act."
