I like to do my own repairs as much as possible, but there are certain things that the YouTube…read moreschool of auto mechanics just hasn't helped me with, (especially since I don't have I garage full of cool tools, and a car lift). John is a fast, friendly and honest mechanic. He changed my '05 Ram 1500's brake rotors (and, obviously, pads), and a leaking power steering fluid cooler. Even better, he did so in about 3 hours on a Saturday. On top of that that, he did the job for about half of what the Dodge dealer was asking (my wife) for. Also, he didn't try to rip me off with an up-sell, even though the opportunity was there...he correctly identified a few other issues (that actually were known issues). He mentioned these issues, but didn't try to pressure me to have them addressed at this time. The next time I have any mechanical issue, with any of my rides, like Arnold says, "I'll be back..." to Smitty's.

Price Comparison for identical turbo repair: DC Auto Repair: $6,500 Jim White Honda: $3,400 Japanese Auto: $2,500 Our Experience: Brought our 2018 Honda CRV in Monday at 8am for diagnostics as our engine light was on. Both my husband and I took the day off work and were told we'd get updates "in a couple of hours." 1:45pm (5 hours later): First call - might be turbo, need smoke test, "one more hour" 4:00pm (8 hours later): Finally told it's turbo, $6,500 estimate 4:45pm: Missy informs us the car was completely disassembled during diagnostic and will take over an hour to reassemble. But "sorry, we're closing!" She admitted they got "distracted" working on other cars during our diagnostic. We were never informed they'd be taking the car apart. Next day: Car towed back with a new scraping noise that wasn't there before. Bottom Line: Poor communication (8 hours, minimal updates) Disassembled car without permission Created new problems Attempted to overcharge by $3,000-4,500! Get multiple opinions. We got three quotes - DC was by far the worst. Should have read the 1-star reviews first!

I was treated amazingly, things were laid out upfront, and I felt like they have pride in their work and rightfully so. I really appreciate when someone is honest and blunt if they have to be right away. Give me the info and I'll make the best decision for me and that's what they did. But then they went above and beyond. They warned it could take a while... they warned it could be quite pricey if certain conditions existed. I agreed to all upfront because I wanted the job done right as my number one priority and I got the feeling these guys were going to do just that. Imagine my surprise when it was finished way quicker than I expected and for lowest end of the price range they gave me. It's been a few weeks and absolutely satisfied with the job done! Believe the reviews, very glad I was able to get the job done here.

Joe answered the phone and told me they were only for a special sale but that if I came it at 8 a.m. Monday, they would have me in and out in a couple hours. When I got there at 8 a.m., there was already a line in front of me. They had opened early apparantly. They told me they took no reservations and that they were booked up and I would have to wait in the back of the line. That would have been fine, except they were extremely rude in doing so. They were utterly dismissive of my concerns and offered no help. Joe told me they weren't even open Sunday -- despite their posted hours saying they were and despite him having answered the phone. He refused to stand by his word. This store is terrible. Do not shop there.

Upon getting her car back, she realized that one of her pair of sunglasses, worth $500, were missing from her vehicle. the owner claims that his technicians wouldn't know how much they were worth because they are men, even though they are a popular designer brand, which many people would recognize. Police are now involved and this issue will be going to court regarding both the car and the "lost" sunglasses. I've been in the process of drafting this review for weeks now, for the sake of making sure the information I am providing to you is accurate and up to date. The car had to be towed to Land Rover to be worked on because allied made it undriveable after ensuring that they had the ability to work on land rovers. The dealership called us back to inform us that they had messed up all of the wiring to the engine, something they never had permission to do in the first place. The land rover staff was shocked and informed us that there was likely nothing seriously wrong with the car other than the wires that had been ruined by allied. This repair is now going to cost $4000 on top of whatever fees we will have to pay to litigate against allied motorworks, as well as the cost of replacing the stolen sunglasses. If you want to avoid a major headache and basically being robbed in broad daylight, avoid doing business with this company. TL; DR : They will ruin your car and steal from you, causing you to shovel thousands to an actual qualified mechanic. This business should genuinely be shut down.
