    I'd give them a zero if I could, they don't deserve one star. Took my car in three times, each time…read morethey told me something different was wrong. When they finally said it was fixed it was something that they never discussed with me and didn't get my permission to do. They were clueless. After wasting $500 of my money they said bring it in and we'll make it right. No way I'm letting them touch my car again.

    made an appointment for a car inspection a good 10 days in advance. The shop chose the date. I even…read moredropped my car off the night before so they'd have it first thing in the morning. I also asked them to attach the skid plate and change the fluids. They had my car all day with no phone call. At 4 pm, I called and was told they only had one person who could do inspections and he was at another location, but everything else was done. Fine. I left it overnight again. The next day, still no phone call. At 2 pm, I called to check in. They told me the inspection still wasn't done because the guy was still at the other site. I calmly asked if they had called him to let him know my car was waiting. The response I got was, "You can come pick up your car!" I was stunned. I said I never said I needed the car! I was simply wondering why it was taking two days. This experience felt incredibly unprofessional. No communication, no urgency, and an attitude on top of it. And here's the kicker: I paid $65 for them to "attach" the skid plate. I drove home (two miles away) and immediately heard it dragging. I called them, and they said, "You need a new skid plate!" That may be true, but I should be refunded because whatever they did clearly didn't hold. I took pictures of their so-called repair: two zip ties. That's right! $65 for two zip ties that didn't even last two miles. They had my car for two days, with a lift, full view, tools, and my money, and this was the result. On top of that, the attitude I received was unbelievable. Buyer beware Especially women beware!

Replaced the flywheel & clutch but did not replace a bearing that was a part of the repair. 3k miles later, the truck began giving trouble again. Difficulty shifting. I took it to a mechanic where I live (FL), and got the shifter fixed. $800 job. that was fixed but the shifting issues came back almost immediately, and this time accompanied by a chirping sound. I took the truck back & my mechanic asked more questions about the work I'd gotten done. I hadn't owned a car in the last 10 years so I didn't know anything. He encouraged me to call them and find out what kind of work was done so they could see if it was related to that and if there was a warranty on it. I called and got a rude person who made sure to tell me that they aren't the same ownership "so WEEE didn't do any work on the truck," she said. I asked if she could get me the information, she put me on hold for 10 minutes, then we got... disconnected. I called right back and got somebody much nicer, who told me what work they did, but was unable to email me any of the information and I guess also unable to find somebody who could do so for her. My mechanic had to call them to get them to send along the information we needed. Turns out all the issues were from the shoddy first job. Great. Better still, it would be covered by the warranty. Turns out labor there was like $300 cheaper than the place I go to now, so I'm not saying you get what you pay for. More that Precise offers a good value when they do the job well (new management, so maybe they do) I understand new ownership means that's not their fault. I am giving 2 stars instead of 1 because they didn't do the shoddy work. They just wouldn't help me at all when I needed them to. My truck is running great now, so I hope you find a mechanic as good as the one I have now. Maybe it's Precise. I don't know.

    As I was calling around to find a place that offered same-day car inspections, I was pleasantly…read moresurprised that 17th Street Automotive offered scheduled appointments for inspections with same-day service. Normally with car inspections, I have to drop my car off at an auto-body shop and pick it up the next day due to the "first come, first serve" policy but I didn't have that option so I booked an appointment with 17th Street Automotive for the same day. As soon as I walked into the office, I was happily greeted by Kristen and another worker. They both were extremely pleasant and personable. I was quoted a service time of about an hour and a half and was offered beverages while I wait, which was a very nice gesture. My state inspection was completed after an hour and a half, just as they quoted me. Kristen was very informative with the things they found during the inspection and with how amazing their customer service was, I would definitely return to get my car serviced with them. I was given a free car freshener once the service was complete and told them I would tell everyone I knew about the exceptional experience I had with their business. If you are looking for same-day inspections or in need of any car services, I highly recommend checking out 17th Street Automotive.

    Completely unacceptable, frustrating experience…read more I paid $1,338 for front brakes and calipers, and within six months I was still having braking issues. When I returned, they replaced only one front rotor under warranty. After a third visit for the same braking noise/vibration, I was told the problem was my rear brakes, even though those had been replaced only three months earlier at another shop. I then went to three independent shops, and all confirmed the real issue was a warped front rotor (the one not replaced the second time I brought it in). This should've been fixed the second or third time I brought it in. Instead they shifted blame to another shop, in which their work was confirmed to be fine. And for the price I paid, I shouldn't have had to bring it in multiple times for the same issue. Still after three visits and over $1,300 spent, my issue was still not properly fixed. The only good thing about this experience was that it was under warranty, and another shop was able to fix my brakes properly. I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before trusting this shop, and if possible save your time and go elsewhere.

The owner didn't respond to my calls or messages for a month. And he refused to provide any sort of refund. He was also really rude to me. He said he would fight any sort of dispute that I file and he got very defensive instead of just being a good guy. Avoid this place.

Amazingly I found this highly rated mechanic who not only was within AAA's 5 mile tow limit, but who could help me out at 1pm on a Friday! While I waited for the tow truck they ordered the parts and got ready for my arrival. I was quoted 4-5 hours for the job and was so grateful for the comfortable couch and large TV w Netflix to spend the time relaxing after a very busy trip. They were totally fine with my dog hanging out with me as well which was nice to not have to stress about. The AC was nice and cool on a 90° day. The guys were all very friendly and helpful. I am so lucky to have found them!! Because I'm super picky about who works on my car, I took it in to my mechanic when I got home just to be sure all was well (I discovered that my horn didn't work on the way home, but other than that the car ran as if nothing ever happened). My mechanic said everything was good except there were 2 other harnesses that were not connected (I didn't find out what they were). All in all I feel so lucky to have ended up in A&M's shop, I felt very well taken care of and for a good price. THANK YOU GUYS!! I really dont know what I would have done without you! It's not often you can be grateful for such a crappie circumstance, but you made that happen for me. I can't say enough good things about my experience. This could have been a total nightmare.
