Stanley Auto Repair Corp (new ownership as of late December 2024) is NOT the same shop that used to…read morebe here (MTA with Mark and Juan) I brought in my Dodge Charger for a front end replacement and shifter repair. After a week, I got the car back but now the shifter could move freely without the key in the ignition or my foot on the brake. That's a safety issue. On top of that, they returned my car with new scratches on the trunk and rear passenger side. When I brought the shifter issue back to them, I was met with attitude: "Oh, you don't like it? You want it back the way it was?" No, I want it to work correctly. Getting answers required my husband to call multiple times and eventually show up in person. Only then did the owner reveal that a used part had been installed from a Chrysler 300 without my knowledge or consent. The Charger and 300 share a platform but are not identical. The car was finally fixed after three weeks, but not without my $200+ Mopar shifter getting scuffed in the process. Tldr: Three weeks, little communication, a used cross-vehicle part installed without consent, damage to my car, and a dismissive owner.

I had an excellent experience bringing my vehicle here for a brake pad replacement. Not only did…read morethey do a great job on the brakes, but they also identified an issue with my suspension and fixed it immediately. While I could have gone to a larger franchise for a slightly cheaper brake job, I much prefer small, family-owned shops like this one. Here, you get knowledgeable, personalized service from someone who truly understands cars--not just an employee who reads off a parts list without real expertise. This shop focuses on a few cars at a time, so their work is meticulous, not rushed like at some of the bigger places. The owner was incredibly polite and patient, answering all my questions, and he even personally test-drove my vehicle to ensure everything was properly fixed. I would give this shop a solid 10/10 for outstanding service. (fair pricing as well compared to local shops) will be back.

I don't know if these reviews are paid for or they're all relatives but I have to say this shop is…read morevery untrustworthy (and definitely not fair prices). Either they don't know what they're doing or they scam people, so either way you can't trust them. I brought my car in after having all my brakes replaced by a very skilled and knowledgeable mechanic who unfortunately lives very far from me. After a few weeks of having replaced them, I was getting a horrible screeching sound coming from ONE of them. Since I didn't want to drive my car far away to have it looked at, I looked for a shop with good reviews. I called this place and asked when I could have that one brake (and I told him MAYBE one other one but only specified one) looked at. They told me noon. So I dropped it off at 11:30 thinking they'll find the problem and get back to me that day. Nope, I had to leave my car overnight. When I dropped it off I asked what they charge to find the problem. He said we don't charge for that. It was 5 pm and they close at 6 and I hadn't heard anything so I called. He told me he drove it and heard what I did and was going to have to open up the brake to take a look (that's what I expected when I asked how much they charged to figure out the issue). He said this is when he told me about paying for labor and he probably did and I misunderstood since no one can literally just "look" and figure out what's wrong. Anyway, the next day when they called me to see what I wanted to do, they quoted me like $940! Saying I should replace all the brakes and they couldn't find the issue aside from that they were rusted (surface rust which is normal even with new ones). ???? I told them it was grossly overpriced. I've never paid that much for brakes and honestly, it's not that big of a deal to figure out what's going on for a good mechanic. It's just brakes. So I told them to send me a quote for the ONE brake that was giving me the noise which I originally said to check out. Still came back to $350. I said there's no way I'm paying that much so I was just going to pick my car up and I'd figure it out. Before I hung up they said $130 for the labor to take them apart to look at them. No work was actually done aside from taking all 4 brakes apart (remember I never told them to do that) and there was not even an answer as to what the problem was. So my regular mechanic that I can trust drove down to check it out. He figured it out in less than 10 minutes by just taking off the tire; didn't have to take the brake apart. It was just a clip that was expanding with the heat and scratching the rotor. He fixed that and no more problem. So like I said, either they don't know what they're doing or they're being dishonest. Either way, save yourself the headache and money and find another place.

He took my money after I told him I was in a rush to get the car fix I had used my credit card bc insurance process was taking too long he told me the car was going to be fixed in 1 week it just the bumper and sencors that it will order and fix it and he never called or text and after a week I went called and he told me he will get it done by the end of the upcoming week. every time I go there there car was just parked there and never been touched so I kept the taking videos and pictures so I can send to a lawyer and then when I called him he told me he already reset the engine and the he order the parts and the car was going to be fixed on Saturday after having the car for 3 weeks. and then I called on Tuesday nothing he was avoiding my call so I went there and started getting mad that is when he finally looked at the car and the problem he told me the car had before that wasn't what happened it wasn't the engine at all. and then after charging me 7931$ to fix the car he told me my engine is fine I have to go buy some parts with my own money and then he will install them for me literally after paying him that much.and he diagnosed the car for the wrong thing. and then when I reached to another shop my job referred me to he didn't want to pay me back right away he was telling me to wait a week. so I got mad at him that is when he accepts to pay back but still tried to charge me and given me a check that was missing some of my money when I said I won't take it he paid me back everything and the shop who took my car from them already had the car running they are just waiting for the bumper to come in to finish the car and they only charged me 4k .

Hello everyone. I have been using The Vette Smith for several years now and I am happy to report…read morethat they have always done a great job for me on all touch ups or insurance related repairs on any of our vehicles. Will tell you upfront that this outfit is not going to be the cheapest place in town; however, they do excellent work and possibly one of the only body shops I would recommend in the South Miami-Dade area that I would recommend to anyone that really cares about their daily driver or collector car. They only know how to do things one way, which is the right way. They will provide you with options and you can take your pick depending on how much you want to spend. They work well with all insurance companies so no issues on that front either. The Vette Smith has been helping many collectors properly maintain their collector cars which is not limited to body work. They also have expert mechanics and technicians on site that can assist you with any issues you may be experiencing. If they can't take care of it for you, they will let you know which is one of things I like best about working with them. Outside of these items they also perform expert detailing and paint correction services as well. So if you are looking for a good body shop that can take care of your body work or mechanical issues on your daily driver or beloved collector, feel free to visit and have a chat with them. Dayton and Craig are awesome, so you can ask for either one of them and I am sure you will be treated well and with the utmost professionalism which in Miami is pretty hard to find these days!
