FACTORY RADIO SERVICE & REPAIR — Local services in Rancho Cucamonga

John REALLY knows his stuff. I had completely ran out of options on how to repair or replace the stock radio on my '93 Mustang. I wanted to keep my car completely original, but it was/is impossible to find a replacement New Old Stock (NOS) radio for less than $400.

I can only comment on my experience, but I would not trust him to fix items correctly, and also he was not up front and honest with me about the...

I called beforehand, drove an hour and a half to this shop, and the owner shut the door in my face because the outer case was missing from my head unit. His reasoning: “I need to test it and I cannot test it like that” Really? Does it make a difference if there’s a piece of sheet metal covering the top or not? (As an aside, the radio works perfectly). Unbelievable. So rude. A true miracle that this place is still in business...
