I took my car here to have the engine replaced with another engine.  After they finished: 1. they did not call me (they had my #).  The car sat for a week after they finished.  2. There was a significant noticeable antifreeze/coolant leak (a hose was not reconnected properly).  3. Unknown to me, the alignment was WAY off & my new tires were ruined as a result.  They didn't tell me I should have an alignment done.  Any mechanic knows that after replacing an engine on a car, an alignment is necessary afterwards (I am not a mechanic... the reason I took my car here).

Went to get a Water pump replaced and was told the new water pump i bought was no good so they found one and stated we will put ours on i agreed to it a month later they called and said it’s something else and we don’t have the experience to work on your truck so you’ll have to take it somewhere else so i picked up my truck and took it elsewhere to find out they Never Replaced my water pump at all and misplaced the new one i bought claiming that the did but i got the part number from the new part and matched it to my original part and was a different match as the lied to me and are still lying. i asked if they road test my truck upon the work they say No Not knowing this the Head person told me they did then was corrected by her mechanics that they didn’t. I don’t appreciate being lied too and if they had no experience working on my Vehicle why did they mess it up to leave me stuck with more to pay getting it fixed

I took my car here for a simple job to have a new rear bearing and spindle pressed in on my 2005 Subaru Forester. We had all the new parts already. What should have taken a few hours turned into 2 weeks of holding my car claiming that the assembly on the car was bad and that they couldn't find used parts to replace it. Every time we asked for an exact name for the needed part so we could start looking, they said something different. When I asked them to just contact the dealership for a part number so I could order it, they claimed the dealer didn't have anything anymore for a 15 yr old car. They finally got a used part, never even put new parts in (but they were missing all the gaskets and boxes so they couldn't be returned). I asked them for my original parts back, and they had cut out a whole lot more than they needed to in order to do the bearing,including the sensor.

This place is great! I needed a new alternator, and I was getting no heat from the passenger side. Which meant that I couldn’t defrost the right half of my windshield, which could be dangerous! They replaced my alternator, a mode door and a blend door in the dash, all in three hours, and for well under $1000! Actually, at first they replaced just the blend door (which was clicking and broken) in the dash and when I went to leave after only two hours of work, the heat still wasn’t working. I went back in and they were super nice about it, as I had to leave in an hour. The receptionist went out and picked up the mode door herself, instead of waiting for it to come, and they replaced it in an hour with literally a couple minutes to spare before I had to leave! Customer service was great! They all were very nice and explained very well what was wrong with my car. They said I was extremely lucky they could access the mode door and the blend door from behind the glove box! Usually with other cars they said you have to take apart the entire dash and it’s a 8 to 12 Hour Job.
