There is no better place to get your transmission replaced than here. Kelly was very professional and worked with my husband and I on getting down our cost on my 2010 Nissan maxima, I felt overwhelmed going in but felt reassured and at ease after coming out. This is my new to go auto repair place. read more

A complete Rip off. UnderNo circumstances do Not go there...They quote you a price and when you go back to get your car that price is alot higher... read more

After 3 different attempts at fixing my husbands transmission there was finally success or so we thought. The Yukon now slips into reduced speed mode on a regular and leaks oil like it's pissing to save its life. And that would be due to the fact that the rear main seal was not done as they said it would. And upon calling them to ask why we were hung up on multiple times, disrespected beyond belief and told that it wasn't included in the bill. But after finally being able to speak with some asshat manager he proceeded to read off all that was on the service order, and the very first thing was THE REAR MAIN SEAL. When we asked him to read the first repair on the list again he started yelling at us, told us we were crazy and never call there again. Now this is all after they called us and told us the Yukon was ready but upon "test driving" the Yukon in their parking lot there was a loud snapping sound and the Yukon would not move, shift gears and started smoking. Best of luck to anyone that is a customer at this place, is being referred by a customer or business or for the love of god himself has a vehicle there and is waiting the ridiculous wait period to get their vehicle back. That will not be completely completed. read more

Rip off artists. Had to call Sheriff to get car back and had physical fight with bitch Kelly the receptionist. Overcharged. Police called! No written contracts. No phone when price increases. Only 1 mechanic. Don't know what their programmer can program. No connection with dealers to fix their mistakes. Liars! Thieves! Con artists! Do not believe the statement that they have been in business since the 70s no one owns nor even works there since then. Say owners are always out of the country when you ask to speak to them but if you look up tax records Nicole and Mark front desk idiot live in Seminole. read more

If 0 stars could be left that's what I would leave. I strongly urge everyone to read their REAL reviews on yelp. 10 year track record of the same experiences from over 40 people. As a small business owner myself I have never left a negative review for anyone but unfortunately what I experienced here is absolutely unacceptable and fraudulent. I brought my car here after many lights randomly came up on my dashboard. Immediately upon walking in they talked to me poorly but I let it go. I was told it would be $150 for a diagnostic test that would be run that day (I later found out from the proper mechanic; places don't charge for diagnostic tests nor do they make you sign paperwork for it which is what All tech did) A day went by and I heard nothing. I called multiple times and got no response which was a pattern here. Finally I get a call from Kelly who plays a major part in their scamming and scheming. She told me that they are sending over the forms to be signed to run the diagnostic test (which I was told was done the previous day) she urged me to sign it immediately while I was on the phone with her. I explained to her it may be a few minutes because it was being sent to my mothers email and not mine. Immediately that angered her. She began to get aggressive and combative with me and telling me that's stupid and makes no sense even after I explained that's what the guy told me to do when I brought my car there yesterday because I had never used "docusign" before (which also frustrated him) after arguing with me for many minutes she told me to her my email and I stupidly did. She made me sign a contract while on the phone with her for the $150 diagnostic test which I then learned afterwards after bringing it to a REAL mechanic that diagnostic tests are free and you should never sign any contract for it either. I signed it without even reading stupidly because she was aggressive and pressuring me. There is a section that is already printed and checked off for me saying I do not request a written estimate among many other immoral things. I was told the test may take 3-4 hours (it doesn't) so I called at 4 (approx 5 hours after I was once again told the test was being run) and didn't get a response. I called again at 4:30 because they close at 5. When Kelly answered the phone she was stuttering and nervous at me asking for an update on my car. She dragged out a long story about how the technician who was working on my car miraculously somehow got run over my car tire!!!! And he's in the hospital. Not for one second am I believing this bs. She was completely frazzled and making up random details. She then asked me how urgent it is that I get my car fixed.. she asked me if I can just use another one in the meantime and asked me why I keep calling??? I explained to her I would obviously like this done as quick as possible and that's a very weird question to ask someone. She assured me they always try to get it done as quick as possible and that I would hear something the NEXT day. The next day I called 3 times with no response. I was then told my whole transmission needed to be completely taken apart and rebuilt. It would cost $1795 just for labor. When asked how much parts would cost or what parts were needed she didn't know. Cops were nearly involved for me to get my car back. After continuous argument she then said that if I get the transmission done she'll comp the diagnostic test price. lol. I took it to a reliable and trustworthy place afterwards and they told me there absolutely NOTHING wrong with my transmission. I had a faulty sensor and that was all. Diagnostic there cost me $0. And they get many of their unsatisfied customers. All tech tells everyone the same story. They keep their cars there for days and then tell them their whole transmission needs to be rebuilt. LIES. the fact this place is in business is mind boggling to me. The most dishonest, trustworthy people I have ever met in my life. Also 99% of their Google reviews are fake. And they also use people's phones to write them even. This place is a scam. read more

zero stars - stay far far far away from these crooks. they will charge a diagnostic fee then forge your signature on docusign (illegal) and when you pick it up the price will be in the thousands and truck is in worse shape. states they only do transmissions there bull crap they wrote all these other things they did without our consent! breech contracts and are nasty nasty individuals. theres over 20 reviews on this place i cannot wait to see them go down. i advise everyone that's been victimized to take them to court to get your money back. this place is nothingggg but f r u a d! KARMA IS REAL! read more

I originally had some concerns with pricing; transmissions are expensive, but Kelly and the staff worked with me to understand how it broke down and how the pricing was realistic. They also introduced an alternative payment plan that made it much more affordable. Kudos to the entire staff for taking the time and making the effort to help me through the process. Mike D. read more

Yelp needs a 0-star review. To say these guys are 'misleading' is well, 'misleading'. The website coupon is crap, they don't tell you that until they have your transmission spread all over the shop. My $2800 job ended up being $4400. Once again, they quoted one price and delivered another. Their Google reviews (the 5-star) are mostly lies. I was them giving away free oil change with every 5-star review. My transmission lasted 10,000 before it started dumping transmission fluid all over the drive way. Turns out they never tightened down the transmission pan bolts. The transmission shift points are way off. If I try to floor the gas to pass a car, when it shifts out of the passing gear it sounds like the transmission is about to explode. I'm just hoping to limp the vehicle for another year and buy another car. read more

Don't take your vehicle to this place. You will have problems when you pick up your vehicle with price or the work. You will not be satisfied. This is a update from my other review after i picked up my vehicle. Just look at all the other reviews and it tells whats going to happen to you. read more

Rated "0" stars. Bait & switch pricing tactics. They do not honor their $149.00 diagnosis if no work is done. They tried to keep my transmission parts after I did not agree to their "one price fixed all ads" and harassed the tow truck driver when he came to tow it away after I sold it to him for asking for the transmission parts back. The list is longer but just go somewhere else. Worst business I've ever been in contact with. read more

Never done business here and I won't. As I was pulling into Home Depot I see a lady throwing trash in the store drain on Seminole Blvd. I looked again to see her tossing a styrofoam cup in the drain then she went back to the building where a man appeared to unlock the door for her. After I parked I called the number on the building which I was looking at. A lady answered and I asked if it was her that was throwing garbage in the drain. She says "You have the wrong number" and hung up on me. This morning a lady calls me from Alltech to ask if I called for a transmission special so I explained my issue to her. She said I was mistaken and that it must have been a customer(remember she answered the phone). I told her that if a business or it's employees have this little regard for the law, common decency or the environment why would I think they will care one bit about doing the right thing for me as a customer. It makes you wonder if someone that works there will stand at the street in broad daylight and blatantly throw garbage on the street where it will end up in our Gulf how do you think they dispose of the hazardous waist a transmission/auto repair shop generates? As I said, I've never done business here, they may be very good at what they do. But I won't support any business that acts like this. After reading the other reviews here it seems they ARE the exact type of people I imagined. read more

Very disappointed. Took a bench job to this shop. Had it rebuilt in 2 weeks (not bad but they said 3 days originally). Put it in only to learn, drive was in first gear, neutral kept switching position, reverse was gone. Got the truck in drive, drove one and a half hours to their shop on their request. Told them it was missing gears multiple times. A few days in they called and told us it was a neutral safety switch failure. (That only affects what gear/ how it starts). Reiterated that it's missing gears. Then they said they forgot the roll pin for the shifter. After that they changed their mind and said they don't ever take them out for rebuilds. That they never said they "forgot it". They parked/got the truck stuck behind their building for 3 weeks and forgot about it, even though they were telling us what was wrong. 3 1/2 weeks in, they decide to go drop the trans pan to tell us that the gears were welded together, that the fluid was black and low. That it needed another rebuild. Told them to put it back together and we'd come get it. They called and apologized and said how sorry they were, but that it was because the shifter cable wasn't adjusted properly. Come to find out, the only removed the tran oil pan and told us all this was wrong. 3500.00 down the drain because their guy had no idea what he's doing. Owner even told me how he was in the field for ten years, then left it only to come back and get staff that quit on him. I will not recommend this place to anyone. Be wary, know your stuff. Getting a rebuilt transmission for less than we paid him from monster with a 3 year warranty. read more

Don't even bother. My boyfriend had to call the police in order to get his car back. The first thing they told him when he called is that they deal with this place all the time, multiple calls a day. You can directly call the Largo PD and ask them about it. Suzanne/Molly/Nicole (they're all the same person as she lies about her name) is psychotic. They didn't provide any receipts or information on charges for services rendered when asked until the cops came. Diagnostic was said over the phone to the tune of "yeah, what you said was wrong with it was wrong with it". Was that worth the $149 charge? No, but he agreed to pay that in good faith of having his car immediately back in his possession. It's only a matter of time before they get shut down, although I do have to say they didn't argue with the police when they showed up to help my boyfriend get his car back, probably because they know they don't have a leg to stand on. My boyfriend was kicked out of the place the day prior for simply asking for a receipt which they didn't provide at the time after asking for what they said they would do to be provided in writing, but not before Molly/Nicole/Suzanne claimed he was harassing her for simply requesting for the receipts and copy of the diagnostic information he paid for. She kicked him out immediately and "closed up shop" to withhold his car. Had I been in my boyfriend's position I would have tried to have them charged for fraud and theft. Pathetic. read more

Just don't. I left my car there for 3 hours before a bad feeling led me to check the reviews. First I was told that they wouldn't be able to touch my car until I signed a form they would email. But when I called and said I was coming to pick my vehicle up and did not want the $160 diagnostic test done, the woman said her tech was already taking it for a test drive. When I said I didn't sign the form giving them permission, she said they wouldn't charge me for that but I had to argue about my need and desire to pick my car up. My this time, my anxiety was at an all time high. When I got there, a man was wiping off my steering wheel and door. When I got in it, the drivers seat and passenger seat were covered in oil. I didn't think to look up until I got home. How TF am I supposed to get this out of the fabric??? Thank God I I got my van before anything else was done. I took it right to Snyder Transmissions, and he did the diag FOR FREE!! He was helpful and explanatory and kind. You shouldn't pay for a diagnostic test!!! What a ripoff and horrible place. read more

Well let me start by saying that Kelly was nice for the most part when we spoke, we both had our moments. I called in on one of they're internet specials for $995, after speaking with Kelly for 5 min, I was up sold to $1395 because I had truck(ok I get it). Through conversation with Kelly, I had mention several times how great the price was for a rebuild on a transmission. She corrected me and clarified that I would have roughly $700 in parts, so now the job was gonna be around $2500, I even added another $1500 in my mind for the job. So I mediate to tow my truck down there at the cost of $200 each way. The shop had me sign a work order and explain that this would go towards the bill if I chose to do the work. A few days later I get a call from the technician, so I cal back in be told that it's gonna be more Like $7100 to fix. I told them it wasn't worth the money to me to fix, so just button my truck back up and I'll move on. At this point I'm told that parts were broken and the truck could not be put back together. I admit the truck had over 280k, but when I brought it there the truck moved and ran. I argued for days with the shop about this unique situation and possibly getting some sort of deal worked out. By the end of all this, I had my truck picked up with the transmission in the bed of the truck in a box. I'm out $1395 for a labor only cost, because according to them that's what it cost to dismantle my truck. At this juncture it left a bad taste in mouth. Sure they offered to reduce the price down to $5500 which is miles away from the original quote. End of day, I'm sure they thrive and support this shop off the back of hard working people and they're "Iron Clad Contract". I admit I should of read the disclosures, cause they make sure you can't dispute any charges no matter what. It's been a hard pill to swallow, thankfully I will be ok without you his extra $1400 in my pocket. BOTTOM LINE DONT SIGN ANYTHING, SHOP AROUND CAUSE THEYRE GONNA BE AS HIGH AS ANYONE ELSE, READ THE REVIEWS!!!! IM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT GOT TAKEN BY THEYRE NON REFUNDABLE LABOR DEALS. THEY WILL MISLEAD YOU TO GET YOUR DEPOSIT!!!! I PLAN TO ALSO GET NEWS 8 IF I CAN GET THE WORD OUT SO NO INE ELSE GETS SCREWED THEN ITS PROGRESS. THERES A REASON WHY THIS SHOP ISN'T S NOT BBB ACCREDITED. BECAUSE THEY ARE CROOKS. read more

BEWARE of this company. Do your due diligence and go the BBB and read the list of complaints. Classic bait and switch scam. Advertise a special at one price only to get you in the door. After giving them the specifics about our car we were quoted one price on the phone & then given a totally different price later and I mean thousands more. We requested a new written quote be given to us and they WOULD NOT provide one. They also wanted all labor costs to be paid UPFRONT. You should NEVER have to pay for labor upfront, parts yes but labor no. Since we could not get a new written estimate & did not want to pay for a service not yet done upfront, we had our vehicle towed away. We absolutely have the means to pay for this repair but not at business that refuses to give a written estimate which is a legal requirement under the Florida Motor Vehicle Repair Act. We then filed a complaint with the BBB & left a google review. We were contacted by this company & we offered monetary compensation to CHANGE OUR REVIEW and write something "nice". Sorry, i have ethics ALLTECH. I won't write a fake review for a refund of your overcharged diagnostic fee. read more

I wouldn't suggest going there. Terrible business ethics! The owners do not know the industry and I found out later they have a bad reputation for being dishonest among other things. I don't want to go into too much detail due to the sensitivity of the situation but highly recommend shopping elsewhere. read more

Kelly is pure trash!!! Bait and switch prices after she lied to my face and charged me over $2k more than quoted!! They double charged me sales tax and REFUSE to refund the amount... started a chargeback against these thieves .... RUN AWAY!!! read more

Complete scam artists. Paid up front $149 for diagnostic that they probably never did then, wanted me to give them another grand before work on my trans. Run run run like Forrest Gump away from here. Female in the back was talking bad about me for no reason when I was paying to get my vehicle to take to a reputable shop. Would leave 0 stars if possible. There was another lady that says she was ripped off as well waiting to get her car read more

Hi, I called about getting my car's transmission fixed. Saved up to pay for their special (which sounds pretty nice, honestly). The lady taking my information then heavily pushed a credit company called "EasyPay." That was fine because, it would be nice to go ahead and get the car fixed while still having some money left over. However, even after agreeing to use the system, she kept selling me on it. Then, she started "advising" me on how to make sure that I'm approved. This continued as she kept asking more and more invasive questions about my income, about my job, etc. Finally, she asked me to pay the whole $950 before anyone had even LOOKED AT MY CAR! I told her that I didn't feel comfortable paying for something that hadn't been done yet and she immediately started criticizing me and told me that I didn't have the money. Look, I don't care. I need my car fixed but, I'm not going to be pressured to commit FRAUD and then pushed to pay for work that hasn't been done. No one in their right mind should do that. read more

CON ARTISTS!! I've never felt so ripped off in my life!! They advertised a $149 special to give me a estimate. They just wanted to start fixing it without giving me a estimate but I was not going to do that! And thank god I didn't! I went to pick it up and since I was not going to blindly let them fix it they said now I owe them $340 (remember, I still have not gotten a estimate or anything else for that matter) Plus they wanted me to look up parts to see how much they cost (even if I wanted to look them up myself I couldn't because they couldn't even tell me what parts I needed) I was so confused, I felt like I was in the twilight zone. The lady at the front desk named Kelly was the nastiest rudest woman I've met in my life. After much arguing she took $75 off my bill. So instead of $340 she wanted me to be thankful that I only had to pay $265 for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING instead of the $149 for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! read more

This business is a fraud. They are offering a Covid special... they took 1250 from me and that was the quote. They held the car for thtee days and then told me I needed to pay $4500 or give my title to them and trash my car for $390. I was irate and so they took another $400 from me and I had to tow my car to Aamco. Total fraud. read more

The worst experience ever do not to to these people they will charge for unessential repair s true scum bags , to everyone who goes here I hope you get out while you can ...

They will charge for your car sitting on there lot and any fluids that leak they charge for that also ... read more

this place is the biggest rip off around. charged me 4000 dollars for a transmission and damaged my front fender and trashed the inside why it was there. what little do they know. no respect at all.well god forgives outlaws dont . we will cross paths again .they owe me a 1000 dollars in damages why my truck was there at the shop read more

This guy, Mark, will not listen or do what you tell him. The temperature gauge on my 2008 GMC Envoy would intermittently not read anything causing an error light to come and keeping the air conditioner from running. I told him to check the connection to the engine temperature sensor or "sender" and sensor itself. Instead, he replaced a thermostat and charged me $300. A bad thermostat will not cause the electronic temperature sensor to fail to read. They held my car hostage because it would have been $188 to take it home with nothing done to it except reading error code that Auto Zone does for free and (they claim) 2 hours of so-called troubleshooting. This place does not troubleshoot; they just replace stuff and suggest you dump even more money into it for "preventative maintenance". I should have taken it to the GM dealer that has the proper analyzer and knows what they are doing! I was starting a new job and this situation had me riled up all week. Also, the woman there drove me and my wife nuts every time we called her with long winded stories about buying a new printer and excuses why they cannot assure me they fixed the problem. She was so evasive and full of double talk that even Donald Trump would lose a debate with her; she will tire you out. If the problem comes back, they are going to have hell to pay! I am tired of paying through the nose for lousy service by incompetent people! My wife spent half the day there arguing with them, and I spent hours hounding them on the phone trying to get them to do what I asked. I would have done it myself but I don't have a lift or the right tools. They did what Cottman Transmissions did to us years ago; charge us so much to just take the car back that we were compelled to have them do the work. Our transmission failed a week after having Cottman "rebuild" it; don't go there either! read more

This people have a scam. I am not talking about the mechanics. Management is the problem here. They will not give you a copy of the contract after they charge you and you authorize them to do the work. Then when you come back to get your keys they won't give them to you because they "have to charge you more" for work that wasn't authorized and can't be proven that it was done. Unethical beyond belief by management. The mechanics are good folks. Just ask them about the lady/wife of the owner who is the one sinking the ship. They'll tell you. This person disrespects the military and police officers alike. There are multiple police reports on this business. Do your research before you come to this place. I was overcharged $500. They have multiple police reports for borderline criminal behavior and multiple litigations. Do your research if you have any doubt. Contact Largo Police. read more

DON'T GO TO ALL TECH TRANSMISSIONS in Largo, Florida. I took my van there on 1/27/2020 to have the transmission diagnosed. I was told by Kelly and Marko Orlando that the diagnosis would be $149. I told them to let me know if it could be fixed and what would be the estimate to repair transmission. At 4:30 pm Kelly called me and told me the transmission had to be rebuilt and it would be $995 plus parts. I asked her the what the total would be but she would not give me a price after talking to her for 20 minutes. I told her I would pick up my van in the morning and asked her how much I owed her. She said $149. I went to pick up my vehicle the next day and Kelly said the bill was $338.66. I told her I thought it was $149, so because I didn't get my van repaired there, she more than doubled the price of the repair. I had to call the Sheriff's Department to get my van. In the mean time Kelly asked for my receipt which she altered while the Sheriff's were there and would not give me a receipt except the altered one. I paid the jacked up bill and finally got my van back. I have never been treated like this in any business I have visited. I am a professional manager with 45 years business experience and I would not be in business if I had acted like this company. read more

08/29/2017 Overall Expertise Professionalism Promptness Worst experience ever! I had to call the police. The law states you must receive a written estimate before any work is performed. I was told and given nothing. I only wanted to talk about a special they advertised. I told her I couldn't leave my car and she said I owed them $150.00. Just to get my car back I had to give them $275.00 because she added all sorts of fees and I got nothing in return. I never asked for diagnostics to be performed. Nicole is a crook a liar and she's crazy. Crazy stupid! She will offer her version and then tell how honest they are. BULLS**T! She will also say I wanted to "dine and dash". I never asked for any work to be performed. She said her tech was just going to take it for a little drive. I ended up losing my car for the weekend and missing my sisters funeral because she is a BI*CH! Plain and simple, I had to get the police involved. Do your homework. Check the BBB as well as all the reviews (some of which she writes as well) and take heed. Nicole is a crook. The repair shop my car was fixed at charged less to fix it than she swindled me out of. They also said that the transmission pan she said was dropped had never been removed in the life of the car. I call BULLS**T The woman is full of lies. She cannot count. I had to count the cash I gave her because she was having a hard time trying to figure out how. Use your fingers and toes next time sweetheart. Get help because drugs kill. read more

My review is along the same lines as Frank C. Maybe at one time they were honest. We had a problem with the throttle body on our 2011 Ford Fusion, and dropped it off to All-Tech because of the convience of being across the street from work. After searching the internet I found out that the problem we were experiencing was under a no charge warranty through Ford. We immediately called All-Tech and told them of the situation and to NOT do anything. They did a diagnoses anyway and charged us $190 dollars. Then the slick receptionist gave us a story of how Ford would remburse us,and a 1-800 # and a case #. Ford said no way. Not only did they scam us but were trying to scam Ford as well. Buy the way when we paid the $220 final bill,the battery was dead and had to be replaced because it had a crack in it fron someone jamming the negitive battery terminal back on. I guess tthe people are trying to survive $190 dollars at a time. As far as I can tell the only five star reviews are by them !!! read more

don't even bother. they are misleading and do not disclose fees. they tell you one thing and bill you for another. $181 to tow 26 miles?!?! bullshit...undisclosed fees. $995 "special" is misleading. more like $995 plus another $1,500...bullshit. read the other reviews and you will see i'm ot the only sucker read more

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU HAVE ANY WORK DONE IN THIS SHOP!!!!! -- The owner gave me an estimate for $300.00, charged $600.00 when the job was done. Made a mistake and didn't call police, signed the receipt!!! The owner stated that she started this business after being ripped off in college. Now she is going exactly the same. read more

Don't pay attention to all the reviews. This place is a total rip off. Won't quote me a price to do a job. Acted all dumb when Iasked her what it would cost. Then when she gave me the bill knew everything about what she charged. Stay away from this place. TOTAL RIP OFF!!!! Dealer is cheaper.Pros would have done the job quicker. And pros would have provided a written quote advicing how much the job would cost. Not change the subject to not quote you. You need to get techs who know what they are doing and not spent all morning trying to figure it out then billing you 3.5 hours. Same job I was quoted 2 hours and 230.00 dollars total cost with the shop providing the part. See you in small claims court. read more

On Wednesday 11/1/17 around 2:30pm, I took my car to an Alltech located at 2227 Seminole Blvd, Largo, FL 33778. Ph #: 727-559-5900. . A woman named Molly greets my friend and I. I informed her that I just wanted a diagnostic test to be done to see what is wrong with my car. She said, well it is $895 to reserve your car in the bay because you don't want to leave it outside because it might get stolen. The .price also includes other diagnostic tests. I handed my car key and two credit cards. She never once informed me that they were going to take my car apart. She told me that the $895 does not include parts. Molly never gave me a copy of the work order. The next day, 11/2/17 I called at 730am. I left a message. I didn't reach someone until 830 am, he said his name is Brian and he is the mechanic. I told him that I do not want anyone to touch my car I changed my mind. Then I called again blocking my number and a woman picked up. I introduced myself and what kind of car I owned? She starts to yell and threaten me. A few hours later, another friend of mine accompanied me, I also called the sheriff department. Two sheriffs arrive at Alltech. I informed them of what was going on. I told them that I was too scared to go to Alltech by myself because Molly or whomever had threatened me on the phone. They touched my car without my authorization. The $895 didn't include touching my car. It only included my car rental, diagnostic test, and to keep my car overnight in the bay instead of outside their shop so that it wouldn't get stolen. The sheriffs went inside the shop and were there for at least 20 mintues, they come outside and inform me that my car will not be ready until Friday, 11/3/17 at 5pm. They weren't supposed to touch my car at all. I didn't authorize that. I told the sheriffs. On Friday, (11/3/17) in the late morning, Alltech calls me and it is Molly's husband, he tells me that my car is ready now and all you have to do is pay the taxes of $895 and sign a release form to get your car back. I question him, "so what is wrong with my car?" He says, "Oh, I don't know, you told us to not touch your car so we took it apart and then we just put it back together and now you are paying the $895. They even put the diagnostic test charge on it but they never did a diagnostic test. After signing the fake work order also known as the sign of release form and paying the taxes of the $895. I was charged $478.82 twice which comes out to $957.64 plus $62.65 which equals to $1020.29. Alltech double charged my sales tax. read more

BEWARE! This is a very dishonest and unethical business. Mark and Nicole, the owners, gave my daughter an estimate of $1,030 to replace the clutch and a bearing on her 15 year-old car. My daughter agreed to have the repairs done, but when she came to pick it up her bill had gone up to OVER $4,000! Mark had done a bunch of additional repairs without so much as contacting her to get her approval. For TWO WEEKS the owners refused to budge (and Nicole acting violently angry every time my daughter came in to get her car). At one point Mark told her to come and get it but when she got there, he wouldn't go through with it unless she signed a note stating that she had agreed to the $4,000 and that she wouldn't write bad reviews online. We had to involve an attorney and the Sheriff's Department, and it was only after a very real threat of legal action against them that they finally agreed to let my daughter pay the initial quoted price and release the car. We have found out since that there are NUMEROUS complaints of similar cases against them, as well as some ongoing lawsuits. read more

Last night my alternator on my truck died at Pet-Land in Largo.First thing this morining I went to get info and a quote to get my alternator changed at ALLTECH, right around the corner on Seminole BLVD and they told me it would take a few days. my car was disabled in the parking lot of their business (dead battery). I told them I was going to look to have it replaced sooner but If I failed to find expedited services they would have the job. They said OK, just leave the key in the box when you are ready and we'll do the work. I went next door to HOOVER AND SONS and they said they could do it same day. That made me happy as I have work I need to do. I went to get my pathfinder move it to the shop that would be doing the work, while walking across the parking lot of ALLTECH I was approached by the owner MARC ORLANDO and was ordered to get off his property, I told him I was leaving with my truck in a few minutes. I also asked him to contact the authorities, as we had no further dialogue.. I was yelled at and cursed at by the owners and staff at ALLTECH for choosing the shop next door. I was insulted and threatened I began recording A/V for my protection and they retreated inside. I was able to move my car to HOOVER AND SONS by borrowing a battery from the owner, Chuck Hoover, he took it out of his OWN CAR to help me move mine (with dead battery). A police officer showed up when my vehicle was removed from ALLTECH and parked at HOOVER AND SONS. I explained how things went and waited for him to speak with MARC ORLANDO at ALLTECH to see if I was going to receive a trespassing warning.The police officer came back out and said 'that guy is an asshole, i probably would have punched him in the face, you're free to go' Marc Orlando or someone at ALLTECH called the police because I decided to have the business next door do the work and they didnt like it. I expect the service at HOOVER AND SUNS to be FAR SUPERIOR to ALLTECH.. The gang at ALLTECH was rude, belligerent and obviously disgruntled. I believe there is some 'beef' between these two shops. On one side there is ALLTECH: angry, aggressive and I'd assume they do crappy work. BEWARE. read more
