Customer service great nice and friendly but I would NOT recommend this place based on my experience. I was charged over $300 for a coolant flush, which I feel is an unreasonable amount for that service. I was very disappointed with the price, especially considering what was actually done to my vehicle. Customers should be given a clear and reasonable price BEFORE agreeing to the work. I definitely recommend getting a second opinion and checking prices elsewhere before letting this shop do any work on your car.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you were pleased with the customer service you received from our staff. However, we would like to clarify several important points regarding the pricing, authorization, and repair of your vehicle.
Your vehicle came to us for a coolant leak. After performing our diagnostic service, we identified the issue, explained the recommended repair, and provided you with the price before any repair was performed. The estimate was sent to you electronically for review, and you were required to manually approve the repair through the link provided and submit payment before we proceeded.
At any time before approving the repair, you had the option to decline the estimate, pay for the diagnostic service, and take your vehicle elsewhere. There was never an obligation to have the repair performed at our facility.
Our diagnostic service is designed to determine what is actually going on with a customer's vehicle. Once the diagnosis is completed, we provide our findings, recommended repair, and pricing so the customer can decide whether they would like to proceed.
The authorized repair to correct your coolant leak was completed. In addition, while working on your vehicle, our mechanic noticed that an inner tie rod end was extremely loose and at risk of coming apart. As a courtesy, he tightened it for you at no additional charge. This was not part of the coolant leak repair and you were not charged for this additional service.
We understand that customers may compare prices with other repair facilities or online resources, including ChatGPT. However, pricing can vary between repair facilities based on labor rates, parts and materials, warranties, shop procedures, and the specific condition and requirements of the vehicle. An online price comparison may not reflect the exact diagnosis or circumstances of a particular vehicle.
We absolutely encourage customers to compare prices or obtain a second opinion **before authorizing a repair** if they are uncomfortable with an estimate. In this case, the price was provided before the repair, the estimate required your manual approval, payment was made, and the authorized repair was successfully completed.
We respect your decision to share your experience, but we also want future customers reading this review to have the complete context. We believe strongly in giving customers the information they need to make their own decision before repairs are performed, and customers are always free to decline our recommendations and take their vehicle elsewhere.
