1 /5 ____________________: Please go elsewhere. Not affordable or honest.
I brought my car in due to severe shaking at speeds over 40 mph, which became unbearable at 60 mph. I initially mentioned a possible suspension issue but was unsure of the cause. I dropped the car off on Saturday and never received a call regarding the diagnosis or cost. After waiting until Tuesday, I had to call myself, only to be told it would be ready at 3 p.m. with a total charge of $640.
The repair included two tie rods, which I was charged $247 for—far above the typical price range. An additional $90 was charged for an alignment supposedly done elsewhere, $40 to switch a tire to a rim I provided, and 1.7 hours of labor at $120 per hour for a job that typically takes about an hour.
Despite all this work, my car still shook exactly as before. When I returned, the mechanic moved a tire, and the shaking shifted to a different area—clearly indicating the real issue was simply bad tires. Instead of identifying this from the start, unnecessary repairs were performed, costing me hundreds of dollars.
I explained my situation, including the need for a reliable car for work and my three kids, but I was overcharged and misled. This experience was extremely disappointing, and I cannot recommend this shop. Unfortunately, it did not meet the honesty or affordability I expect from a professional mechanic.
Avoid this business.
