DO NOT GO TO SMETHERS AUTO!!!! THIS MAN IS ROBBING YOU!!!!! HE IS A CROOK!!…read more If Yelp had zero star ratings that's what I would give this. So I have a old vehicle it begins to stop when it's driving the fuel pump is bad on it so I was highly recommended to Ed. I was told that he could fix my vehicle for a cheaper price most mechanics would charge. Ed also knew about this vehicle. I called him up and talked to him about the fuel pump situation and how much it would cost for everything.He told me that he doesn't want to work on my old pickup and that he usually doesn't work on older vehicles. Later I looked on his facebook page and most the posts are older vehicles actually ones older than mine. I told him that all you have to do is check the fuel pressure. He said well that might not fix the problem and that he couldn't guarantee that was the problem. For a mechanic to not be curtain on things like that then that tells me that they have poor business and that they aren't trustworthy. I don't want a mechanic that is trash to fix my car so he can rip me off and mess more things up on it. I would never take my car to this man!! To be honest If he was the last mechanic on earth I wouldn't take my car to him. He is very rude and was disrespectful I treated him with kindness and respect and he was disrespectful! The vehicle was on his property and I told him that I will probably get it tonight he then responded "no probably to it get it off my property!!" He then began to tell me that I bought a money pit that if we took it to him that he would replace part after part. He also told me that he doesn't want to do business with me because I haven't known him for a long time and that he doesn't want to be the "bad guy". I've talked to many mechanics and every mechanic I have talked to has always wanted a new customer. When I was talking to him he seemed very sketchy very rude and disrespectful the old man is not getting my business and never will. I have read the reviews about this auto shop I understand he is highly rated but I'm sorry to tell you guys this but this old man is ripping you off. He is called a parts replacer all he does is replaces your parts for you and then a month or so later you're gonna have more problems with your vehicle. I would recommend going to someone that knows what they are doing and not a crook like him.

We have had three of our cars worked on there, and each repair was completed well. The strangest repair that we had done was fixing a side view mirror that had been knocked off by a kamikaze raven in New Mexico.

Tim used his knowledge of cars, creativity, and the existing mirror to effect a great repair. The mirror works perfectly!

I asked them multiple questions (often belaboring a point) and they remained calm, respectful, and helpful. Would gladly come back here in the future and recommend it to my friends. Interior was, the diagnostic report was extensive and highly detailed, with quotes for all recommended service. Tina made it a point to mention that all information in the report is intended to be for the consumers benefit, and that just because it is included doesn't necessarily indicate a replacement is needed immediately, but rather that it outlines something within the car isn't working as intended. I appreciated her openness. Great place!

Do not take your vehicle here. They will charge you thousands of dollars and leave your car in the…read moreexact same broken, unsafe condition with no resolution. My car entered Don's Auto Center on January with a stalling issue. It is now June, and after they charged me $2,529.47 and installed three separate fuel pumps, my vehicle is in the exact same inoperable state it was in five months ago. They were about to install a fourth consecutive pump onto the car rather than admitting they couldn't properly diagnose the underlying issue. Enough is Enough. Their business practices are completely untrustworthy. On one of the stalling occasion, my check engine light came back on immediately after a "repair." I scanned it myself and found the exact same fuel pump codes. When I brought it back, the technician pulled up a circuit code and explicitly asked the manager, Joe, if he should clear the code (turn the check engine light off.) Joe told him yes. They completely gaslit me, claiming the light was just because my gas was low. I left, filled the tank, and the car violently stalled out in 4:00 PM traffic less than 20 minutes later, leaving me stranded and shaking while cars honked and swerved to avoid hitting me. As a woman, dealing with this establishment has been a nightmare. The gaslighting, the flat out dishonesty, the lack of responses when emailing or texting when I'm just trying to figure out what's going on with your vehicle is unsettling. How many fuel pumps should I allow them to put on my car? This fourth fuel pump was the last one in the world and then they were obsolete as what I was told. I asked them OK so if this one doesn't work then what? They said to take it up with GM dealer. Instead or admitting they were stumped and offering a refund, the General Manager, Ricky, officially banned me from the property, canceled my warranty, and refused to pay for a $105 out-of-pocket towing fee caused directly by their failed repair. When I safely removed my property from their lot and attempted to voice my experience, the GM immediately sent me aggressive legal threats via email to intimidate me into silence. I am refusing to be bullied. They took $2,529.47 of my money for a repair they could not successfully complete. Avoid this shop at all costs unless you want your time wasted, your money taken, and your safety put at risk. Everything I've said, I have actual proof and receipts of. If they respond in any kind of way to try to discredit it what I'm saying it's all a lie.
