I had known for about two months that I had a small leak in my front passenger side brake line, being the son of a former mechanic I had bought parts and planned on doing the work myself. However, weather and timing were not on my side. Took my car in and Matt and John took a look at it and found that my master cylinder had also went bad. They replaced the cylinder and found that I was right about the leak in the front passenger line, however Matt was pretty sure that the increased pressure from the new cylinder caused the leak. They replaced the line as well and now my car stops better than when I bought it. They did it at a reasonable price too, because I know that the same job at a dealership could have been $900-1000. I'll definitely be seeing them in the future.

So far everything is running great. No one including myself wants to spend money on an older SUV but it turns out that it was cheaper than buying a new or used car with higher miles. So, for a few thousand bucks, I have a SUV that my 16 year old can drive. Looks good and runs great. David was very helpful in the process and straight forward about the costs. He gave me a competitive quote for the engine and after evaluating what else the truck needed...It was my decision....no pressure. It made sense to invest a bit more to address other non-engine related issues. I had my truck back in just over a week. I was referred to Michigan Motor Exchange by another automotive shop. I am happy with my experience.

They kept my car without doing the work and when I came to ask for my car to be release the owner threatened my by putting his finger in my face and called my an F***ing A**hole. I wanted to just get my vehicle completed by the estimated time he had given me. Things escalated and I called the police. They gave a new invoice for $2217. Took the issue up with the state and they were sanctioned. They were told to release my vehicle but the refuse so now we are going to court. They never finished the car or never planned to even if I paid the $2217. The owner said that he would enjoy make good money off my Porsche when he sales it. The state has denied any attempts at putting a mechanics lien on the vehicle and has told them to give it back.
