I arrived at the garage on 8:00 a.m. appointment with a problem. I needed to remove the front wheel, which had two broken bolts (nuts).
Additionally, the front right spring in the car was broken and needed to be replaced, and I already had a new spring available.
Before starting the work, I asked how much it would cost. The manager (Leon) told me that once they removed the wheel, they would call me and let me know the price.
I called back at 2:00 p.m. that day, but they said the cost was still unknown.
The next day, no one called me back, so I called again myself the following day.
When I asked about my car, they told me that they (for some reason) had removed all the wheels, and that if the car wasn’t repaired, it wouldn’t be drivable. The service cost was $900.
I said that wasn’t the price I expected and that I only wanted the front wheel removed.
The manager told me they had already removed the spring and couldn’t put it back because it was broken.
When I asked why they didn’t call to inform me of the cost before starting work — they didn’t answer.
In the end, I came to the garage and found out that the spring could, in fact, be reinstalled.
When I went to pay, they gave me the total — $365.
$365 just to remove the front right wheel!
I asked why it was so expensive, and they replied that it was because they had removed three other wheels as well (which I hadn’t asked them to do, since I came with a completely different issue).
In conclusion, my opinion of this garage is extremely negative.
They purposely avoid giving prices upfront because they know customers wouldn’t agree to them. Then, after doing the work, they present an inflated bill with extra no need service that must be paid.
I strongly do not recommend this garage.
They may be polite, but behind their smiles, they’re overcharging you.

My left rocker panel was severely scratched and damaged when I got the car back and noticed it this morning. Highly frustrated and annoyed. What a waste of money!!

Leon giardino
The truck i bought from him is still sitting on the winter road
Only drove it less than an hr.
Truck cost over 16,000.00 plus 3000.00 he didnt wanna give me back. So 20,000.00
Its 2010 Silverado. 4x4.
Now someone stole all 4 tires from the truck and a rack.
I heard he takes out parts and put old parts in. I can tell you who they are.
And back when u did something to my 2014 truck. It smelled like old parts. Might of took my blower out.
Over pricing. I need my money back.
Plus he took my 400.00 i had under my seat
He didnt give me receipts
Please give me my money back.
The truck was for my daughter.
Dont believe anything he says. Even with his comments
I hear other stories about this guy.
Even someones truck he drove around with. Almost a year.
Who are all these 5 stars commenters. Probably ur workers
