I would like to preface this review by stating that I am grateful for the courtesy of the staff and their ride service to and from the shop, however I am very discontent with the quality of auto service I received as well as the price. I went into the shop to diagnose a scraping sound which I later determined to be the compressor and left with a laundry list of issues - some of which critical, but I couldn't afford to get them done there. Not wanting to leave empty handed and paying their exorbitant diagnosis fees, I had their staff tend to some of the issues such as a single Valve cover gasket oil leak and some belt replacements which ended up costing well over $600. I first encountered issues with my power steering soon after I left the shop as I suspect the wrong type of power steering fluid was used. Not only that, but my engine began to misfire following the replacement of the valve cover gaskets, presumably due to the service tech getting oil on the ignition coil. I only recommend going to this shop if you are exceedingly desperate like I was. Otherwise, get a good mobile mechanic like I did immediately after this experience.
James, We appreciate you coming into our shop. We were able to diagnose the grinding noise you were having as the AC compressor which you did not want to replace. The diagnostic fee we charged was $89.95 which is very reasonable today. We did find your value cover gaskets leaking covering your engine/transmission/steering components with oil. We degreased those areas and installed new gaskets to stop the value covers from leaking. But we did not change your power steering fluid so any issue you were having is not due to the wrong fluid. Our invoice you received is very good at detailing out the work we did. All of our work is guaranteed for 3 years, not prorated, so if you ever have any issues just give us a call and we will take care of it. We wish you the very best.
