My girlfriend made an appointment there and asked me to drop her car off, said they'd give me a ride home since it wasn't far. I arrived on time to discover that whomever she made the appointment with had neglected to ask the receptionists to put it in the system. I should have taken the hint and left then.The receptionist said that they could fit us in, so I left a few minutes later. They said they were going to call me back later today to schedule the pick-up. That never happened. I had to call them just prior to closing, and the bad attitude started as soon as the receptionist picked up the phone. This is when I was told that the job was only half done and would be continued the next day. When I asked why I hadn't been informed of this change, I was accused of being ignorant and rude. I was also informed that nobody was going to stay after closing for the less than 30 additional minutes it would have taken them to finish the job. It seems they think it's better for us to go without a car for an additional day, with no warning or discussion, than for them to work a little later to uphold their obligation. I will be back there when they open tomorrow to speak with the owner. That will be the LAST time we will do ANY business...

Had some work done to my vehicle brought a vehicle there three or four times for the same issue my car land up coming back with more issues more lights on destroyed the hose that goes to my air filter under the hood very rude and they rip people off call went in with a low coolant temp. Now my car is overheating and they tell me my engine is blown. People do not know what they’re doing. The lady Shannon behind the desk is very rude, ignorant and stunk. I do not recommend bringing your vehicle to this place I have six other codes on now These people are trash pretty sad when you have their own employees tell you don’t bring your car here because they will rip you off now that’s pretty sad. Shouldn’t you have told me that before I brought my car that dude Andrew is a joke. They hide a lot of the reviews so people don’t see them. Ask me numerous times to take my review down and that’s probably why my car is still messed up, but they are by far the worst garage I’ve ever been...

Terrible experience. We took our truck and horse trailer for repair. The quote was astronomical so we waited on the truck repairs but went ahead with the trailer because it was more urgent. They returned the truck with major scratches and dents even though they did no work. They admitted fault and then told us we had to use their auto body guy to fix. Nice little insurance fraud going there. The trailer apparently needed new tires, one of which popped within one trip after purchase. When I took it to another trailer servicer, they told me that the tires were not graded for my trailer, were the cheeapest money can buy, and were at least 8 years old. When I took their estimate for my truck to our own mechanics they said "this estimate is fiction." Needed none of the work listed at $4k. Total scam artists and unpleasant to deal with. Stay...
