Don”t ever go here for an alignment if you want a straight deal. I took my truck in the other day for a front end alignment (2 wheels) and they charged me for a 4 wheel alignment. When questioned they claim that all alignments are the same, which is complete BS. There is no way to adjust the rear end on a solid axle truck, and therefore no reason to charge the same as a 4 wheel alignment. I do all of my own maintenance and only defer to shops for specialty services like alignments, but these guys will not receive any more of my business.

From the Christian based business advertising I thought I could send my wife here and not worry about her being taken advantage of, but that was definitely not the case. I had her take the car in for a front brake job due to the vibration in the front end, nothing was said about the rear brakes so the rear wheels should not have been removed, however, they told my wife that the front brakes were ok and she needed rear brakes. So her not knowing any better told them ok, and we got ripped off for a 150 dollar brake job that we didn”t need and nothing was done to fix the problem we brought the car in for in the first place. So they agreed to turn the front rotors and do the front end alignment that it needed and “treat me right” on the bill for the mess up.The next day when I went to pick up the car I was shocked to see a seventy dollar charge just to turn the rotors, they also admitted that most places charge thirty dollars for this but they normaly charged ninety so seventy was a good deal. I then questioned was that for the alignment as well and the owner said no I didn”t know he did an alignment so you owe me seventy more dollars on top of that. Since the alignment wasn”t on the bill I am sure that the alignment was not done so I was forced to pay for a service I didn”t get. Being taken advantage of in such a way is inexcuseable, being ripped off and treated in such a poor manner just isn”t right. I would not advise patronizing this business!

I brought my cars in for an oil change twice. I paid approximately $45 each time, but they never actually changed the oil! My dad is a mechanic and he knows cars. He happened to work on my car shortly after I had the oil changed and asked me how long ago I changed he oil. When I told him that it was just a few weeks ago he told me that couldn’t have been right, because the oil was black and smelled like oil that had been around more than 7K miles…So basically they were just taking my money, but did not do any work! Which would have costed me thousands of dollars in repair have I not found out that my oil hasn’t been changed in a while…I will NEVER take any of my cars there.

I thought I could send my wife in and not worry about her being taken advantage of here but that was definitely not the case. I had her take her car in for a front brake job but instead they talked her in to a rear one so the problem with the front end vibrating did not get fixed until they did an alignment, turn the front rotors, and tried to get me to buy tires there but I would not. So what should have been about a hundred dollar brake job wound up costing me 320 dollars. Beware, I will never patronize this place again.
