They pulled the valve cover and noticed my rocker arm was off. They said they did not want to fix it. They charged me 280 dollars to take off the valve cover and put it back on. Would take Maybe a half hour!! I paid the bill. I went in to get my AC recharged and they quoted me 500 dollars!! They said they really don't want to work on older cars. I guess if they thought I was stupid enough to pay this, they would. I said that's Crazy for an AC recharge! I left and took my car to another shop and was charged 120 dollars!! I will Never bring my car in again and will Never refer anyone. Thought I was a "Valued Customer "?? That isn't a priority in this establishment.

Lifted Rippers

Excellent and Very Professional Company!…read more My experience at Lifted Rippers was truly Amazing from start to finish because of a very caring staff and treated me better than family. I started with Katie, who coordinated my diagnostic with Jake and my entire schedule for a complete 3.5 Rock Krawler lift with FOX PERFORMANCE SERIES 2.5 IFP HTO SHOCKS along with a Synergy Jeep JL / JLU HD Steering Kit W/ Synergy Tuned Fox IFP Stabilizer. Kamaya who helped bring things together for the build. Matthew who did the entire Lift Kit installation with accuracy and attention to detail and made sure everything was torqued to spec's and for safe driving. When I test drove my Jeep the ride was perfect, smooth and balanced. I Highly recommend Lifted Rippers and the Owner's Mariah and Josh who put that team together and they will help you get the build and look you want for your ride or if you already have a lift go in and get your lift retorqued and your parts checked to make sure everything is safe. You will be glad you did. Thanks Again Lifted Rippers for an Amazing Experience !

I scheduled an appointment for a basic oil change and tire check (rotation if needed)…read more After the work was done, I was told my vehicle was ready and the tires were good. The final bill was tallied: $104, which I thought was a lot, but I assumed it was the 3.5% up-charge for paying be credit card (which I did know about, but forgot to bring cash). I said something about the cost and that's when I was told the license plate bulb had burned out and had been replaced. No one said anything before changing it, no one asked me if I wanted it changed, and frankly I didn't. When I responded exactly that (you didn't tell or ask me) the reply was: "But you'll get pulled over for that." Bullshit, I say. Truth is I was told that light was out the last time I had the oil changed, and I declined replacing it then. That was 4 months ago, one major drive trip to FL's east coast and back, and not a single siren in my rearview. What's really bothering me is that I finally looked at the itemized bill when I got home: $14.99 for a flippin' light bulb. (Which, I don't doubt, I could get for half, or maybe 3/4s, of that at an auto parts store.) Maybe it's a good thing they changed it b/c I forgot to do it when I was first told it was out last oil change. But that's not the point. Bottom line: request your Customer's permission before doing an add-on. Period.

This family run business found the real problem, which was faulty AC coils and replaced them even though complete removal of the dash and front seats was necessary to reach the coils. American auto Air was the only local AC repair shop capable of removing these structural parts of my Cadillac to do this major repair. When the vehicle was returned to me, the electrical ABS module wasn't working as it was before and Larry agreed to find that discontinued module and replace it for me. Larry even wrote in the guarantee that since a competitor had misdiagnosed the original AC problem, if I had any problems with the working compressor within 90 days, he would replace it for me at no charge. I would highly recommend American Auto Air Conditioning Service--a business that guarantees the work that was done on my vehicle for 3 years!
