First off let me say that I initially met with Lisa who was very friendly and seemed trustworthy…read more I explained to her that after a check engine light showed up I had Auto-zone run their scanner on my vehicle. They did so free of charge and returned error code P1757 recommending to replace the governor and possibly the transducer in the transmission. I further explained to Lisa that after the governor and the transducer were replaced, the check engine light returned with the error code P0868. She said they could do a full diagnostics for $150 made be a transmission specialist. She made a note of the recent history on my ticket. I told her I would leave the scanner reports and changed parts in my truck cab in case their technician needed to refer to them. A few hours later, a gentleman who I believe to be the owner called me, saying that they would need me to approve an expense of $600 to $900 for them to finish the diagnostic, because they would need to drop the pan to go further into figuring out what is wrong. I declined and asked when I could pick up my truck. He said he would have to see because they would first have to put my truck back together if I was declining to go any further. I confirmed I wanted my truck back and he said he could have it ready later in the day. When I got there i asked what they had done. it turns out they had only plugged in their scanner and printed out the report. The same type of report I had told them Autozone had done for free and that I had left for their convenience in my truck. I paid my $156 and asked to see the report. obviously it returned the exact same two error codes P0868 and P1757. Nothing more. It took them all but 3mn to start the engine, plug in the scanner, turn off the engine then plug the scanner into their computer and print out the report. So when I remembered that over the phone, the owner had claimed that if I wanted my truck back he would have to see to "put it back together" this was a huge red flag as to their honesty and straight forwardness. When I asked him in person why they did not do more diagnostics then simply running a scanner, when they knew I had already done so, he responded that he was not going to have his guys drop the transmission pan for $150. I would not have had a problem if he had been upfront and had explained that his diagnostics would be nothing more than plugging a scanner. i would have likely skipped that step and asked how much it would cost me to get an actual professional transmission diagnostic. When I got home from their shop, I was surprised to realize that my box with the parts and diagnostics report made by Autozone were no longer in my truck. Needless to say I will find someone else to work on my vehicle.

When our Jeep broke down in our yard and wouldn't start, we were looking at a hefty towing bill to…read moreget it to a repair shop, if a tow truck couldn't even get to it down our narrow tree lined driveway. Then my husband remembered seeing a truck with "mobile mechanic" on it and searched for "mobile mechanics near me". We called FRE Performance Mobile Auto Repair and for not much more than it would have cost just for the tow, we got great service at an affordable price. Brent knew what the problem was as soon as he attempted to start it, then verified that with the diagnostic machine. Within minutes, he had diagnosed the problem and found the part in stock. When he quoted the price for parts and labor, I think that it was considerably less than we would have been charged at many places. He drove to the parts place, got the part, and had it installed in just over an hour. It was probably the easiest car repair we'd ever had. The great thing was that no waiting in repair shop waiting rooms was required, and we were able to be at home to meet another contractor for an estimate at the same time. We will definitely use his services again for any other auto repairs and maintenance that we have in the future.
