Joe told me my vehicle 100% needed a new motor due to a symptom he found in my engine and that the…read morevehicle was worth maybe $1000 if I wanted to sell it without repairing it. I expected and planned to be out of pocket at least $5,000 and was really upset about it. I spent the money for all the parts Joe said I needed and it burnt a pretty big hole in my wallet. I then took it to Chevrolet in Springfield the very next day and they did an inspection of the motor and found the same symptoms as well. They then took my motor apart and told me to look at it with them. The head gaskets, timing chain, head bolts, and valve cover gaskets that Joe told me I needed to replace were 100% fine and needed no reason to repair. All it needed was a new thermostat housing and coolant leak to attend to. I don't believe EMS physically looked at anything in my motor and just gave me a quote for a new motor after finding one symptom that could realistically mean a lot of things that could be wrong. I ended up only paying under $500 for the repairs and the car had zero problems after the repairs and I ended up selling it for much more profit then what I bought it for. I wouldn't have a problem with any of this if Joe just took the time to physically look into the problem instead of just telling me that I needed a new motor after finding one thing wrong and then just stopped looking in to it. I just feel like they tried to cheat me in giving them $3,000 to order a new motor and pay the $2,000 in labor when all I needed was just a thermostat. I won't be taking any of my vehicles to Joe anymore. He's a very friendly man but only did half the job.

Personal experience. Took Silverado truck on 7/21/25 to have 3 very specific things fixed…read more Received text and call on 7/22/25 that 125.00 was due for diagnostic and none of the three things could be done without more diagnostic and what they would do may not fix problem. One of the three things, they could not hear noise (which was very obvious). Did not need a diagnostic of entire vehicle or ask for it, from Diagnostic, had long list of items to repair that I did not ask for. Just paid for diagnostic and left. Felt very scammed and ripped off. Would not recommend. Had previously been to Campbell Automotive with no issues but was not the case now. Very disappointed and felt cheated. First review I have written.

They had my vehicle for 5 weeks and the issue was still not resolved so I told them I needed it back. When I went to pick up the vehicle the guy behind the counter was rude and insulted me. Took the vehicle home and had it fix in a day and it ended up being an issue I had expressed to them twice I thought could be the potential problem. The owner seems like a nice enough guy and didn't charge me anything but I was still out 5 weeks of not having my vehicle. My biggest complaint is the treatment I received from the guy in the front office at the desk. He needs to learn how to speak to customers.

I have never been to their shop personally, but I feel I have…read more Being an entry level technician working as a Service Writer out a shop in Portland, OR I watch their videos on You Tube, and follow their page (RealFixesRealFast) they have helped me so much with my development, and I find the way they diagnose problems couldn't be any better or faster and they go so far to find and solve even the smallest issues, that they cut parts in half and study them! Knowing that this shop uses a lot of the same vendors we do I know they are quality oriented and know the difference between Grade A, B, and C parts and not only that, but they know what pieces and parts need to be replaced when making repairs, there is zero guessing,speculating ,only gathering evidence and a effective repair. Honestly I feel like I know them, and from what I see, I would trust them with my vehicle any day any time. Thanks Guys Kalvin.
