I have a 2000 Chevy S10 that's flummoxed a couple local shops with odd issues, but Rob has my truck wrapped around his finger.

That said, his ability to fit my truck into his schedule has impressed me as much as the quality of his work. Rob is the man and anyone that says otherwise can catch these hands.

In June, I had a cooling hose replaced and front breaks there also, but they didn't install the hose clamps properly and caused fluid to continue to spray all over my engine and under neath my car, by july ( a few weeks later) something was dragging under my car and I went in (kinda freaked out, seemed dangerous) but LouLou said they were at lunch and to come back in an hour- (a few people sitting in the office eating) .... so I came back in two hours BUT it looked like tHE mechanic and the Lady were leaving and the lady told me to come back the next MONDAY, very dismissive , but then the man got out of his car and ripped the hanging part out from my car and said it should be fine, .... I was stunned. It was 3:30 on Friday afternoon- and front desk girl wanted to go home- dismissed me again. NOW 2026, I got a new mechanic, of course..and the new mechanic said there are several issues including the battery and under my car there is a small hole in a hose which caused a slow oileak and splashed OIL under my car because there was no cover.... Leaving it exposed to road debris. My car is older but I have taken it in anytime I had the slightest issues. But now $5k later it's in worse shape than ever and would be thousand of dollars to clean and repair all these issues. My car is the shop again, Again because my battery- so Today- I called Sonoma auto to check the warranty on the battery they installed and got nothing but rude helpless answers from the front desk person. . Sh treats me like I annoyed her. Except, I'm a paying customer. Not there to make friends with LouLou. She's rude or she's just covering for the faulty services I received. Or both- sometimes, just taking reasonability for action is all a person needs to hear. But being meet with more dismissive behavior will only add fuel to the fire. Take responsibility, be accountable and treat customers like customers.

They adjusted my valves, and took care of a few other things I hadn't noticed. I'm not taking any of my hotrods to anyone else now... and I'm VERY fussy!

If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. So two weeks ago, April 25th to be exact, I called…read moreSartorial to book an appointment to get my ac fixed. They diagnosed my car a few years ago and told me that I had a bad compressor that needed to be replaced and possibly a bad condenser too. When I talked to Giovanni on April 25th, I asked him if I could bring my car in on a Saturday to get it fixed. He told me they were only open 8am-12pm on Saturdays and this job could take a while, depending on if it was both the compressor and condenser that needed replacing. He asked me if I could bring it in during the week and I told him I'd need to ask for a day off of work. He told me that to help me out with scheduling, I could drop off my car on a Friday around 2pm so that they would have time to work on it that day and finish on Saturday if they needed more time. I said that sounds great, I would only need to leave work an hour early. Giovanni scheduled me for May 8th at 2pm for my car to be dropped off. On May 8th, Giovanni called me and left me a voicemail while I was at work at 11:11am, confirming with me that I would be there at 2pm that same day to drop off my car. I did not answer since I was working. I go in to drop off my car at 2pm and the manager Roger is there in the office. I told him I am dropping off my car for ac repair and he says, "Are you dropping it off to be worked on tomorrow?" I said, "No, I am getting it dropped off to be worked on today" and I told him about my conversation I had with Giovanni on April 25th. He said to me that they were busy and he wasn't sure he would be able to get to my car that day. I told him I knew it could take a while to work on my car for what it needed and I had made this appointment 2 weeks in advance. He told me that dropping off my car at 2pm for this is pretty late. I told him that this was the time that Giovanni told me to drop my car off at. He told me that they had two oil changes to get to and then they could start on my car that day. I said ok and left. May 9th I called to check in on my car at 8:51am and Giovanni answered and told me they had not yet gotten to my car. I grew worried since there was only 3 hours left until they closed. I asked him if he had a timeframe for me and he said he did not. I called back at 9:10am, prepared to tell them I would just pick up my car and go somewhere else at this rate. Roger answered this time and he told me that they would get my car done before noon. At 11:09am, Roger calls me and tells me, "I have good news and bad news" the good news is that we won't charge you anything today" the bad news is, we did not get to your car." He offered to recharge my system for free so I could have at least a little ac. I reminded him that the last time they tried to recharge my ac, they told me it was out of charges and the compressor needed replacing. He said he would look into that. I go to pick up my car with my boyfriend and a young guy at the front desk hands me my keys. Roger walks into the office as we are leaving and he tells me, I guess you'll come back some other time, see you next time". I told him, "I would not be coming back and I was upset that they tell me they will get my car done and nothing gets done." I don't care how busy they are. They should have been able to at least tell me hey we are so busy we won't be able to get to it this time. I would have not wasted all this time not having my car for it to just sit there. My boyfriend and I walked out and said to eachother we are never coming back here, screw this place. The young man at the front desk was walking out at the same time. He heard what we said, turned to us and said, "Fuck you guys." I wish I was making this up. I turned to him and told him he was unprofessional and an asshole. He told me I should have dropped my car off before 2pm yesterday. I think he might have been the worst part of our experience. He was really rude and I wish I got his name. I didn't bother telling Roger that his employee is highly unprofessional and just a mean person. I believe he would take his side anyway. Bottom line is, these guys have very poor communication between each other and I wish they could have saved me time by saying hey we just won't have time to work on your car this week. They also have noo consideration or care of their customers and I did not get a single sorry from any of them. And maybe don't keep an employee that is a jerk to customers.
