***EVERYONE PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH THIS SHOP**** Mike quoted me a price of $6k to rebuild my…read moreengine for a 1971 cutlass supreme (350 engine). I gave him a deposit. When the motor returned from the machine shop, that price went up to $8500 because he said he underestimated the cost of the machine shop work. The lack of communication was unreal. Then the week of installing the engine he gives me a bill for $11,984.01 because he said the quote did not include his labor. Additionally, the parts HE ordered (headers, radiator) did not fit. His solution to this problem was for me to reorder these parts at my own expense!! And he was very disrespectful about it as if I ordered I made the mistake! It took ALL of my military bearing to remain calm with this guy. He initially told me he had to order all of the parts for this project and now he wanted me to order parts for a misquoted job. I refused! I forfeited my engine and deposit and just took it as a horrible and costly experience. I wasn't giving him anymore money because if you're incompetent enough to order the wrong parts then who knows how the motor will run..especially for nearly $12k!!! I was fooled by the good reviews and did not read into the bad ones, which point out the same issues I experienced. There were several flags you should pick up on if you ever consider using this place...heck I should've picked up on these flags but he starts off very professional until he gets your money of course. 1st flag: the business does not take Visa, Mastercard, etc. or that's what I was told. I had to pay all in cash. 2nd flag: his quotes are very vague, sketchy, misleading and he won't give you much in writing. 3rd flag: he is a very rude guy who lacks customer service skills. He will turn belligerent as soon as you question him on something. 4th flag: He rarely has any customers at his shop. (This is when I realized I had been scammed) This is a shady establishment, please BEWARE!! Don't be like me, READ THE BAD REVIEWS and do your due diligence. I would not recommend this business to anyone! Very disappointed!

They were highly knowledgeable, very informative, helpful, friendly and most importantly HONEST!!! They took me back into the garage just to show me every single thing they found that needed repair on my car instead of giving me this huge printed off list with shop abbreviations. I was there for two hours and it felt like I was only there for barely an hour because they were so friendly and helpful. How often can you say you sit at an auto shop for two hours and walk out with a smile and the feeling that you trusted the service you received 100%. I can't say enough good things and I will definitely be going back and recommending this shop to all for any auto service needs.

It was making a noise that it had never made before. I found out that they didn't do a proper install because of that. It caused my car to have a knocking in it. They refuse to acknowledge it and do anything about it afterwards I took my car to Dick Dyer and they acknowledged that the part was not installed correctly and that in order for them to fix it it would cost me around $15,000. So I learned my lesson. You get what you pay for and if you want your work to be half done. Keep going to Royal automotive. If not, take it to a reputable foreign car dealer. If you have a Mercedes, take it to the Mercedes dealer. Definitely do not go to Royal automotive I wouldn't give them one star

After my initial email at 1900 (7:00 p.m.) on Friday to Assertive PDR, I had a response within 10 minutes. By Monday, I had my wife's BMW M3 dropped off at his shop, and by Tuesday, it was fixed. Bubba, as he prefers to be called, explained to me the process of removing the dents from the aluminum hood and is extremely honest and up front about cost. He told me if he couldn't fix it, he wouldn't charge me a dime. Additional, my wife pointed out a scratch that was completely unrelated, and Bubba was able to do some light clear coat sanding which virtually made the entire scratch disappear. The best part...he didn't charge me extra for this! Bubba is an Army Vet with over 20 of experience in the automotive repair industry. He's polite and willing to have a nice conversation if you're down for it. I think I hung around for about and hour and we talked about grilling and car stuff. Overall, he's someone that I trust, and if I ever accidentally drop a plastic tote on my wife's M3, he'll be the first person I'm calling. I highly recommend his business.
