My ex took her car here on several occasions to have work done. First it was because of the battery. They told her it was an alternator problem and replaced it. Later she drove to the east coast and still same issue, so a mechanic here replaced the battery, which on this car is a chore. Still having issues when she returned to them, they told her the harmonic balance was bad, and that's why it wasn't charging properly. But still no refund for the not bad alternator. As a former mechanic and an ASE certified one for over 20 years, I can tell you, the alternator and the harmonic balance were both OK. So next trip they say she needs all new brakes rotors, pads, calipers, the works. Now being female when they say things like, "you wont be able to stop or your wheel is going to fall off", she buys it. So this time she had a noise and took it back, they said she needed all new ball joints upper and lower both sides in the front. So I got on the phone with Matt, I can tell you they have no idea what there talking about, stumbling over his diagnosis and telling me it needs them, said if nothing else needs an front wheel alignment. Anybody who knows cars knows you cant align the front if the ball joints are bad. Now keep in mind this car, for a 1999 only has 48000 miles on it. So I had her take it to somebody else, two places in fact. The noise ended up being a piece of plastic wheel well the most likely bent when doing the brake job. The ball joints are fine and do not need replacing. It's sad that shops like this one can stay in business doing people like this. I also have a recorded conversation with the mechanic that he stated if she didn't replace the ball joints her wheel was going to fall off. So no disputing that they said that. Bottom line stay away from these people!!! Read Reviews on yelp and google this shop is no good. save yourself a headache.

Beyond their quality of work (which is outstanding) the entire staff is honest and forthright. Its a refreshing change.

They are servicing a high mileage 12 year old Lexus and a high mileage 4 year old Buick Enclave for me. Much more fair on prices than any dealer. Courteous, funny, and down to earth. They don't come up with "hidden problems or charges." If more places in all businesses in Naples would take a lesson from these guys, they might stay in business longer. Being fair and treating the customer right go a long way for this older Naples resident. I tell neighbors about them and they go there and are just as satisfied with them as I am. And now they are going to take care of my 2012 SS Camaro!!!!
