Yes, this was an expensive repair but it was absolutely no fault of Allman Family Auto. The issue…read morestems from Chrysler's Pentastar cylinder heads, which are a known problem. I always do my research, and unfortunately my assessment turned out to be correct even before Allman completed their diagnostics. Mike at Allman spent a great deal of time walking me through different scenarios and options, providing detailed estimates for each. I also requested additional estimates, including a full engine replacement, so I could make a fully informed decision. While their estimate was less than dealership service departments, it was slightly higher than another independent shop. After researching the difference, I found it came down to Allman using OEM parts rather than cheaper aftermarket parts made overseas. I don't use cheap parts on my vehicles, so that made the decision easy. Once I felt fully comfortable, I chose Allman and I'm glad I did. Mike kept me informed throughout the process, and my Jeep was back on the road even earlier than estimated. Thank you, Allman Family Auto, for the honesty, transparency, and quality work.

I wanted to post a follow-up to my original review regarding my experience with Allman Family Auto…read moreShop. After I raised concerns about what I believed was a misdiagnosis and being overcharged for repairs that did not fix the original issue with my vehicle, I reached out to the shop directly to address the situation. To their credit, once I called them out and explained the ongoing problem, they agreed to take another look at my car. Upon re-evaluation, they acknowledged that the initial repair did not resolve the root issue. They worked on the vehicle again and ultimately fixed the original problem at no additional charge. I appreciate that they took responsibility and made the effort to correct the situation. While my initial experience was frustrating and felt misleading, I do recognize their willingness to make things right after the fact. I hope moving forward they improve their diagnostic process to prevent similar issues for other customers. Updating my review to reflect both the initial experience and the resolution.

I've been to this location twice this year and continue to be impressed with the service provided…read more Visited in February for an oil change and a general tune-up based on mileage and was treated well with fair prices. Plus I love that you can make an appointment online! I brought my car back in September as I hit a pothole and my alignment appeared to be off as a result. They did a full inspection of the car and found a repair was needed. It was a Sunday and they seemed to have a difficult time getting the part in, but called around and got it done for me while keeping me in the loop along the way. All in all, I was out of there within 5 hours and my car is better than ever. As a note outside of the service I received, the signage about upgrades to the waiting area was up in February as well and there's been no discernible updates when I was there in September for a repair. I'm sure the signs came from corporate but I'd suggest not displaying them until the upgrades are actually underway ;)
