I was worried that it would take more than the 1 1/2 hours that I was quoted for. When I checked in with the service person, I specifically said that I have an appointment at 10 am and needed to leave as soon as the key fob is ready. Lo and behold, come 11:15 and I'm still waiting in the lobby. I checked with another service staff and they don't know where my car is. Waited another 15 mins before the service manager found my car. At this point, I missed my appointment, was so pissed that the ghettoness in me came out, and I didn't even want to look at these people. They didn't value my time. I didn't expect to be there beyond the hour and a half. I could have made other arrangements. No amount of excuses or apologies are accepted.

I pick it up, and lots of pedal travel before any stopping power. Prior it was excellent. Last visit they rebuilt the Alternator, even though I provided a freshly built one. Reminded them multiple, multiple times to replace the belt. Did they do it? Nope! Returned the car to me not charging at all, same as when I brought it in. Charged me $1000!!! What a total waste of time, this place obviously isn't fluent in 50's Fords. I totally wasted $1000. This garage is the fine example of why it's best to service your own vehicle. Had to fix the horrid job they did. Stick to what you know, MG's. I'm posting a website dedicated to this fiasco, you'll be hearing from me soon!

We had just received a shocking high repair estimate at another facility and happened to see a news segment about Ask Patty Certified shops, and so we found Jim - along with a strong recommendation from a woman we know. Many years later, we are loyal customers. The fact is, we can all be taken by a mechanic. How do we really know? Ask Patty is another layer of consumer protection. I have never experienced any of the shenanigans I have endured at so many other car places. Sure, Jim will tell you he can repair all that minor stuff like bulbs and air filters that anyone can easily do themselves, but what I rely on him for are the major repairs, not just maintenance. If my wife happens to be the one taking the car in, she has Jim do that minor stuff. Jim founded his shop after many years in the business, thus establishing his credibility. He is a straight shooter and will tell you what needs to be done and not done. He is no pressure to do repairs. I have never had an issue with a repair that required me to come back, it failed early, or I had to make a warranty claim on his shop's work. He has a coupon sheet that we have always used to keep our three cars going. He referred us to an inexpensive auto body dude who does repairs from his garage. Jim also has the free loaner vehicles. For quick stuff I connect to his WiFi and work there, chatting with him about all sorts of stuff. He has good coffee. He has an annual car show thing. I highly recommend Jim for a long term car mechanic relationship.
