    Murphy Mobile Mechanic Service is Excellent and a life saver…read more One day my girlfriend's car didnt start. I thought it was the starter based on what I was hearing. But I wasn't 100%. So my girlfriend was going to take it to a shop and was quoted over a grand. So Instead I looked on yelp and found Murphy's and requested a quote at about 10:50pm on a Friday night. I got a text to my cell phone at 11:02pm just minute's later!! He asked me what I heard and he agreed that it sounded like the starter. He got all the information about the car and said he would contact me in the morning. The very next morning he called me and got the part and was headed over to my apartment to help. He got here quickly and tested to make sure it was the starter before he installed it to save time and money. And got it installed and ready and working perfectly in about 30-40 minutes. He charged us for the part he brought for us and the labor and we ended up paying around 600 bucks when we would have been paying at LEAST twice that at a shop, and we didn't have to worry about towing the car to a shop or anything since he came to us. We were extremely happy and I'd recommend him to anyone. I believe his name was John, If I'm incorrect I'm sorry lol. But he was very good, quick, knowledgeable and convenient. I took his business card and will definitely give him a call for future issues.

    Work was completed as quoted but the bill was manipulated to make that happen. I was quoted a…read moreGod-awful amount of labor ($800), and questioned their need for so many hours. I know for a fact they did the job in about 90 minutes, because my uncle works across the street and watched them do it. I still got billed for the same price because they charged over $500 for a part that can be gotten for $180 at NAPA. I payed the bill though with a good attitude and thanked them for fixing it. As I left, I started the vehicle and immediately found that the back-up camera did was no longer working. I went back in to ask if they could keep it one more day to see what might have happened - figuring it would be no big deal and that things like that sometime happen. I stayed very nice, calm, and professional throughout my conversation - because I have been in these uncomfortable situations before. The guy at the desk was calm as well. However, the guy that worked on the vehicle got unexplainably defensive when I simply asked them to consider if it was possible they severed one of the wires to the camera (or something else). He immediately began arguing (loudly) that the camera "was not working when I brought the vehicle in". I explained and showed him that the camera had a dedicated switch, so he wouldn't know if it was working or not (that meant he was lying when he said he knew it was already broke). He then said "I know, that is what I am saying, I never touched your switch so how could I have broken the camera". So I would say, "touching the switch won't break the camera but how can you say it wasn't working if you didn't know about the switch?", and he would then respond, "that is what I am saying, I couldn't break the camera by touching the switch so it wasn't working when you brought it in". We went in that circle for about 5 minutes but he never changed his defensive attitude and never acknowledged any possibility of responsibility. The other shop guy (the one that manages the desk) eventually apologized on his behalf and gave the excuse that he was having a bad day. I remained nice and calm and conceded that it was entirely possible that the camera coincidentally failed while sitting on their lot, but they refused to acknowledge or concede that maybe they accidentally did something to break it. They suggested I leave and figure it out myself and call back so that they could "go from there". In the end I found that the 12v wire feed under the dash was pulled loose. I near the location they hooked up a test unit when they worked on bleeding my brakes. Numerous other little things took place in the argument as well. Overall, one guy was loud and defensive and the other guy was calm, condescending, and was just happy to have my money. They had zero problem letting me leave to investigate the camera myself, and I had zero problem writing this review knowing that I paid them over $1,000 for two fixes that went very easy for them, and a surreal argument over a pulled 12v wire.

I thought coolant leaking day 1 and day 2 after repair were from when the hose was forgotten but NO, I now have an overheating engine, coolant leak and they claimed to be coming to look at it for 2 days (now going on the 3rd day) and still haven't showed and have not communicated anything else for days! Not only that but wanted to charge me for parts to fix it even if it was their error. Then wanted to charge me $100 for diagnostic if it turned out not to be their error (which how would that be if it wasn't leaking before they touched it...1st mechanic touched NOTHING on that side nor did he remove anything involving coolant yet they tried to pass blame stating it could have been done before they came. Now it's 3 days before Christmas and I'm stranded in OH and can't get back home to NC! BAD BUSINESS! Only one star because I had to.

    You need to understand why I sought to find a reliable Auto Care company that would meet my needs…read more I have never owned a used car in my adult life. I now have a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 with 203k miles. The first thing I needed to do was to get it totally inspected so that I knew for certain what I was dealing with. I could have driven from my home on the hilltop to Grove City or to North Columbus but I wanted to see if something local would meet my needs. SHIFFLET'S met and exceeded my needs and expectations. Located on Sullivant Avenue just east of Demorest and on the south edge of Westgate Park SHIFFLET'S is convenient and they provide a shuttle, drop box availability, towing, a cool lobby, car rental services and both highly skilled ASE mechanics and office and support personnel that you wouldn't want anything more. This might not make sense but it has to be one of those little tiny things they have and that they use that really appeals to me... they text message on an isolated text line that you as a customer have access to. My inspection report with pictures came as a link in a text message. Updates were sent. It is so much easier using text messaging than playing phone tag around your availability to voice talk. Prices are so competitive that I don't believe price will be the factor that pushes your decision to use their services. I believe that their commitment to the customer by highly skilled long-time employees in a family-owned shop will be the deciding factors in choosing SHIFFLET'S. I appreciate that they use TECHNET warranty services and they definitely back up their words with action. https://www.shiffletautocare.com/ I can't imagine a high quality shop like SHIFFLET'S ever choosing to use gimmicks or sales tactics to persuade you on your decisions. They don't need to when their work reputation is all that's necessary.

They gotta use the parts they know are good, or they can't guarantee the work. If you wanna to buy your own parts, then unless you are using a shade-tree mechanic, you are also gonna do your own work. I appreciate the ability to discuss details of costs and options, and I feel these folks are clear in those discussions. All repairs I've had performed on 3 different cars over the last 6 years have been solid.

    I went to Luke's about a month ago, because I needed to get my transmission flushed. I was…read moreincredibly happy with the service. First of all, when you set up an appointment, you can request a loaner car, so that you don't need to wait there for the car, and I didn't have to miss work. I also saw a different rep ordering someone an Uber for a different customer because who didn't have appointment so there wasn't a loaner available. Secondly, I originally went in for a transmission flush. While I was at work, I got a text and email of the inspection they had done. The inspection was really easy to read, and gave me different levels of recommendations for other things that needed to be done. Some things were urgent, and some things were needed soon, but not urgent, and there were some things that were for maintenance only. On my lunch break, I called my service rep, and he was able to talk me through all of the things on the report, and explain things to me, because I am pretty illiterate when it comes to cars. I ended up also getting my drive belt replaced as well. But my rep made sure to let me know what the price would before I decided to go through with it. At the end of my work day, I drove my loaner car back to Luke's and picked my car up, and was on my way. Overall, the inspection report, and the loaner car I think is what really separates Luke's from the rest. When I've taken my car to get an oil change or the tires replaced at other places, i've always had to wait in the lobby and its a waste of time. I lost no time with Luke's and knew exactly what was happening to my car. Take your car to Luke's if you want incredible service.

    The issues started some time ago when Luke recommended power steering service to my vehicle. The…read morecost was over $4,000. It was so high that whenever I went in there for additional service later, the customer service rep would remark about how much they had charged me for the work. However, despite the high price, the power steering system there after failed. Since the repair was still under warranty, it did not cost anything other than my time to get it repaired, but the concern was they admitted that they had used non-OEM parts, which was surprising given how much they had charged. After the power steering system was repaired, I took my car in for a brake job. Once again, I noticed issues. I took it back and discovered that the rotors had warped because they again used non-OEM parts. Shortly after getting that issue resolved, the power steering system failed yet again and once more it was due to using non-OEM parts. During one of the many conversations about these issues, the customer service manager told me they fired the original customer service representative who arranged the initial power steering system. I was surprised they would fire a customer service representative over the wrong parts being used. Then it occurred to me that they might be paying their customer service representatives a commission, which would encourage them to upsell price while reducing cost. That would explain why they kept using non-OEM parts on my repairs even though their policy called for manufacturer parts to be used. I then decided to do a little online digging and found that it does seem that Luke's pays a sales incentive to their customer service representatives. Job postings indicate a wage range from $50,000 to $125,000 and state that job skills must include overcoming objections. This would imply that the polite and energetic customer service representatives are paid to inflate price, reduce cost, and sell customers repairs that may not be needed. That certainly appears to be what happened in my case with multiple repairs. After bringing these issues to the attention of management, the service level I received decreased markedly. Twice I reached out to the owner himself via LinkedIn and was told each time he would personally look into it and get back to me. I never heard from him again in either situation. The customer service manager at the location I use promised to arrange a rideshare to pick me up from my office after the car had to be towed after the last breakdown, but the arrangement was never made, leaving me stranded at the office after hours. I arranged my own rideshare to get to the facility and retrieve the keys to a loaner car that was to be on site for me only to find that no keys had been left, thus leaving me stranded at their garage after hours. I had to hire another rideshare to get home and then return to the garage the next day to get the loaner vehicle that was supposed to have been arranged for me the day before. I have since called Luke's twice and left messages on their voicemail, inquiring about my service records so I could understand what other maintenance might be due on the vehicle. My calls were never returned. Certainly, being greeted with a smile, having a nice lounge to wait in while cars are being repaired, and having loaner vehicles available for those who do not have the time or desire to wait on premises are all great! It seems that the clients appreciate it. But at the end of the day, what we all want is a car that is repaired correctly, using the right parts, and at a fair rate of labor. We pay tens of thousands of dollars for a vehicle and must trust that a mechanic will do the right job without taking advantage of us. By apparently paying their customer service reps to inflate pricing and use cheap parts, Luke's has violated this trust. All the customer service hypein the world will not change that fact, and as I can no longer trust them, I will no longer be a customer.
