    I have had both of my vehicles worked on at this shop. They are both friendly and professional. Couldn't ask for better service.

    This business, it calls itself "Affordable Auto Service" but it's anything but that!!! Here's why…read moreI can say this: My vehicle's "Service Engine Soon" lamp came on the dash recently so I grab my OBD and plug it into its port to see what's going on. It's showing a DTC of P0128. Click on the additional info button on the ODB and it states there are 4 possibilities as to what's happening. The most obvious: a thermostat that's stuck open. Purchase a replacement thermostat and am set to replace it when I re-injure a past foot injury. Back having to wear a walking cast so I'm now slightly lopsided and in no condition to perform the repair myself. So it's now a trip to a shop to have the work performed. Drop my vehicle off to this shop at 7:30 AM and explain my ODB shows a DTC of P0128 and leave them the thermostat I had purchased myself. Inform the employee that the coolant was last replaced in Oct of 2020 so this might as well be replaced also. Should have asked for a quote upfront for I would have saved myself the shock of seeing how much I got charged several hours later. Returned at 1:30 pm but I see my vehicle with its hood up so they're still doing something with it. I return an hour later and it's parked so the work performed, it's completed. Or so I thought. So what did I get charged to have the thermostat replaced and the coolant? Would you believe: $840 dollars!!! That's right. Yeah, I can't believe this sum either. Worse yet, when I drove away I couldn't believe what I was looking at on my dash. The "Service Engine Soon" lamp was still on and I had a NEW idiot light flashing at me. I pull into a parking lot to see why the "Low Coolant" lamp is on and it's obvious. There's absolutely NO coolant in the coolant reservoir!!! What the hell??? My auto's Low Coolant sensor sits in the bottom right-hand side as you face standing in front of it. Every time I turn my vehicle over, this lamp comes on. Three days later I return and request they add a couple of quarts of coolant so this lamp won't come back on. Surprised I wasn't charged for this. But lo and behold, guess what's no longer lit on my dashboard? Right, the Low Coolant lamp. I inquire as to why I'm charged $550 dollars just to replace the thermostat and another $200 dollars to replace the coolant? Get told, "there were issues" and the mechanic took longer. I ask, "and what were these issues?" Unsurprisingly, I never received an answer to my question and "these issues" they're NOT written down anywhere on my Repair Order! Gee.... I wonder why????. The paperwork shows nothing but dollar amounts but as far as how much time was spent performing the work, nope, not a thing. Zilch, nada. So I ask, "how much time was involved and get told, approx 3.7 hrs. Hard to believe it takes a WHOLE hour to remove coolant and then add almost 8 quarts. REALLY??? I have since been informed that replacing my vehicle's thermostat, it should only take, at the most, 2 hrs. As for the coolant, this should have been included with the work performed given it was the THERMOSTAT that was replaced, for crying out loud! I did receive a "new customer" discount but this was not mentioned when I dropped my automobile off and someone probably thought, "this guy's lookin' at a $1,000 dollar repair bill and all we did was replace the coolant and thermostat.... hmm, let's give him a supposed "discount." I now realize, I should have simply asked for a quote on what this business would charge me. As the saying goes: "Buyer Beware" As to whomever owns this business, a word of advice: just because a customer turns up with their OWN part because they already know what needs to be done because they also own an OBD, this doesn't give you the right to overcharge them. Also, a customer having out-of-state license plates isn't a signal to justify Ripping them OFF because you think, "gee, what are the chances they return to complain?" Well, there is such a thing as the state of Washington's Consumer Protection Division so in fact, I do have recourse to file a complaint with them, in case you weren't aware. One more thing: how about relocating your hourly labor rate sign so it's more prominently displayed where customers can more easily see it. Having it on the wall opposite the front door, since most customers will come through this door, if they don't close it, then the information is HIDDEN from VIEW. I hope it pleases you to know, you scammed a former Armed Forces Service member. As such.... PAT YOURSELF ON THE BACK!

    So glad I got the extended warranty when I bought the car! First it was the transmission, then a…read morecylinder, then the timing, and other little odds and ends all at the same time! The technicians didn't stop working on my car until it was good to go! Very friendly, helpful, and encouraging service. Plus they had a loaner can that they let me use until mine was fixed. Very affordable for the issues my car had! Great big Thank you to everyone at the shop!!! Customer for life!

THEY DID THE SAME THING TO THAT BLOCK!!!... so I had to pick one of the blocks up MYSELF and bring it to another shop to have it fixed Which cost another $2000 that they refused to compensate me for.. and then they said they would give me a good deal putting that one In cuz all their mistakes and then I went to pick up my car and they tried charging me almost double what they had said they would do it for.. so an engine replacement that should have been quick and cost 3k tops ended up costing me 2000 for replacement engine 3000 for them to brake it... then another 2400 for rebuild kit and then another 1900 to have that block fixed and after all that they told me I owed 3500 for them to put that one in!!!! So it would have ended up costing me almost $13000 for new motor to be put in.. and then they are trying to sue me an take me to collections cuz I refuse to pay the last 2000.. cuz in reality THEY OWE ME $4000 IN THEIR FU$& UPS.. n I am trying to replace my radiator right now and ALL MY HOSES ARE STUCK ON WITH ADHESIVE...
