I was in a bind because my engine couldn’t turn over. The mechanic who worked there agreed to see me immediately and was honest about the other cars he was taking care of ahead of mine. He was patient enough to work with me and my brother to ensure we understood the issue with the car and getting it back in working order.
Not only did he make sure my car was fixed, he made it a point to explain the both of us what the issue was and made us aware of other minor issues he noticed when checking out the car. I wasn’t expecting that and deeply appreciated his foresight to do that.
I highly recommend bringing your car to get fixed with this guy. Awesome person who gets the job done right.
Sam (owner) is a total rip off!!! He a good mechanic depending on how he's feeling. All bad, business is business point blank! The shop is a filthy disaster he's a rude-get over. You can't even pull in his lot its full of junk cars for a reason. He made 500.00 off me in 2 days then told me my car wasn't worth putting money into due to a bad leak. Well y tell me that after u take my money! Do NOT go here! Just get a car note! ????
I have brought 5 cars to sam an he has done a great job with all of them ranging from a new transmission to a/c to oil change all done correctly an in a reasonable amount of time I do recommend him great guy An honest !!
Long time bringing all my cars here and referring people but I was told a wheel alignment was done and in actuality it wasn’t. It almost caused us an accident because it would jerk one way or another every time we hit a bump. When I took it back to get done correctly after I had already paid I was told I had to wait for several other cars to get done who hadn’t paid before he could get to mine. Every person I seen this day come here has shown having the same experience of the owner not taking responsibility for the actions of him or his mechanics. Too many cars on the lot and looks very unprofessional and very discouraging. I’m done with dealing with this business and won’t be referring anyone else. Lastly it seems preferential on who and how he deals with certain people.
This place it legit. They will take care of you and fix your issue without giving you the run-around and they are extremely reasonable. Quality work at an exceptional price. I visited another shop nearby and they were rude and quoted me a horrible price. Sam took care of me and saved me hundreds of dollars. Him and his staff no their stuff. The yard and the building definitely need some maintenance but do not let look decieve you. Yes it's dirty and messy but their work is quality and their prices can't be beat.
Great service, after going tire shop after tire shop to get quotes, for some online coil spring and tires I bought. I was getting ripped off by everyone. i was saved over 50% and in my case had all the parts installed that same hour. AMAZING. for everything tire and suspension related, even if you purchased the items yourself. I'd give these guys a shot. It just happened that no one works on my foreign and these guys where able to do work. props to them.
Before running an auto repair shop, you should probably (at least) familiarize yourself with the basics of auto repair. Sam, the owner, has not.
I went in for a simple alignment after replacing ball joints/tie rods on my car, and it took 3 trips (and an entire day missed from work) for them to get it aligned properly (well, as far as I know; their shop is so janky, they don't even give you a printout showing the adjustments that were made. I have NEVER been to a shop, independent or chain, that didn't give me a printout after alignment). When they finally got it aligned correctly, he tried to tell me the reason they couldn't get the car aligned the first time was because the front uplinks were damaged. When I explained to him that uplinks are for stability and have absolutely nothing to do with alignment, he changed his story to saying that the steering rack was damaged (it's not).
An alignment should take 30 minutes tops, and is so easy to do that a $10/hr Jiffy Lube wrench monkey can do them. Definitely the worst experience I have ever had and least knowledgeable shop I have ever been to.
So bought a car from here definitely was overpriced, but thats not my problem i couldn't find him when the engine blew. Went to my old mechanic charged half of what A star would have quoted.Next nothing is ever done when its supposed to ( i know things go wrong) but can never get ahold of him open or not.
