Well, I will try to make this short, but unfortunately I doubt it will be. I'll try to briefly…read morepaint the picture for you of my recent experience. My late fathers 2002 Toyota Tacoma truck had the check engine light come on. Due to Covid, it was just convenient to go to my local Pep Boys location. I've taken it mostly just for routine oil changes, smog checks and occasional maintenance. Up until now, I was satisfied with the service I received. However, as of late, ie the last two months. I really feel cheated and taken advantage of. I feel like the recommended things they stated were needed were not valid. Furthermore, they charged me for things and did NOT do them. Example 1. They charged me for a new air filter. See the attached picture of my invoice dated less than two months ago. Also see the attached picture of my air filter that was removed by Bocho today. No way this was replaced by Pep Boys. The truck is hardly even used. No way it would get that dirty. Shame on them for taking advantage of me. Example 2. Bocho replaced the faulty cheep spark plugs that Pep Boys installed. That resulted in a spark misfire. In closing, it's so important to have a mechanic who can be trusted. My father has known and trusted Javier, the owner of Bocho's auto repair for years. He is an ethical man who will not make up stuff and take advantage of his customers. I highly recommend his services. Today, I brought my dads truck to him and in less than two hours he had taken care of my problem. His pricing is very responsible and fair. Thank you Javier. I'm looking forward to coming back to see you in again for my vehicles needs.

Aaron, the owner has always been incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and honest. No matter what issue comes up, he's able to diagnose it and get it handled the right way.

I'll keep coming back as long as my Evo has problems, which they always do.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR MITSUBISHI HERE!…read more Took my Mitsubishi VR4 here on Jan 2024 for an engine rebuild, and on August 2025 I had to ask for my car back! This engine builder FULLY CHARGED ME FOR EVERYTHING, and never contacted me or reached out to me to tell me problems about my car later in the build! Not only did he say my car humbled him but he had the audacity to say he is losing money working on my car! He is always posting working on other clients cars on his instagram but never puts any work towards mine! So he finally gave up and said he is looking to get a second opinion from other builders! I told him a VERY EXPERIENCED builders name and he said he reached out to him (only to find out HE NEVER DID, it looks like this guy, Aaron, is way too prideful and rather lie and let a customer down than to fix his car) Look if you read this far, I own a couple businesses and I do NOT like writing bad reviews! But if I don't voice what happened, some other person will get screwed over and taken advantage of! I highly recommend NOT taking your car here if you value your time, dignity, and money! He left me on read when I asked for compensation, he did NOT even offer a free tow to bring my car back! Mays Performance is a joke of a shop! If you need a mechanic (search up bboyalan on the 3SI forums - his name is Alan - and you can also find him on Instagram under BTStuned ) TL:DR; Aaron at Mays Performance is a lying clown that took almost two years on an engine build and never finished the job nor offered compensation! I had to ask for my car back and he said he recommends me TOWING it back not driving it

I feel like I found a hidden gem with Richie's Restorations…read more After noticing the paint peeling on the roof of my BMW, I started looking for someone I could trust to diagnose the problem and provide an honest assessment. Richie took the time to thoroughly research the issue, explain what was happening, and walk me through my options. What impressed me most was that he actually encouraged me to get quotes from other shops before making a decision. From the beginning, Richie was upfront, honest, and transparent about pricing. He took his time with the repair and made sure the job was done right. The workmanship is phenomenal. The finished product exceeded my expectations, and my car looks fantastic. It's rare to find someone who takes this much pride in their work and treats customers with such integrity. I would trust Richie with any vehicle I own and highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality repairs and exceptional service. I'm grateful to have found him and can confidently say I now have my go-to shop for future repairs.

When I called and asked about my car, Ray was patient with my questions had some very good ones of his own. Then gave me a rough idea of what it could be. Once he got it within a short time he was able to find what the problem was and gave me a fair quote with options that could come up. He had simple and technical answers so I got to know my car better. The repair was done and when something came up he checked with me and gave me options to save money or what is best to do next. The guys that work with him have such a love for the job. The employee who brought my car up was so excited about my car and talked about all the cool things it was and thanked me for bringing it in. There is so much more to say, I will just again say what an awesome experience and thank you all for the work. Can't wait to bring it in for the next fix/upgrade.
