As soon as the temperature breaks 90+ outside the a/c starts blowing warm air. It's working just fine right now but if you take it out in the heat this afternoon it will not work, I'm telling you. He brushed off what I said and said " the Freon is probably low". I told him I didn't believe this to be the case, but please take a look at it. They call me later that day and tell me the repair is done. When I asked what was wrong he says " the Freon was low and you needed a new cabin air filter". Hmmm okay. So I go to pick up my car the following morning, pay him his $120 and I leave. A/c is working fine, as expected, because it's morning and it's not hot YET. 30min later it's pushing 90 outside and lo and behold the a/c starts blowing hot air. I didn't even make it back home and the shit stops working. Did you guys even put an ounce of regard into what I told you was the issue up front? Clearly not. Felt like a take the easy route and spit him out the door situation. Very very poor business practice. Waste of time, money, my breath, my mental energy. Avoid.

I read the reviews about Duane's Automotive and decided to pay them a visit before having the Jeep towed there for service. I was impressed with the cleanliness and modern equipment in the shop and more impressed with how knowledgeable Kieth is. I had the Jeep towed over and discussed the issue with Kieth. He was certain there was a wiring issue. He called the next day and reported there were two broken wires near the throttle position sensor and he needed an hour of labor to make the repair. I was elated it was nothing serious and did not need any parts. I learned Kieth recently took over the business from his father, Duane. It's great to find someone so knowledgeable and professional so young in their career. I will be referring everyone I know to Kieth for auto repair and maintenance.

On November 19, 2024, I entrusted my vehicle to Mando's Automotive for extensive engine repairs…read more The shop owner provided a repair estimate of $6,000, for which I paid a $3,000 deposit, with the understanding that the work would be completed within 3 weeks. The agreed-upon repairs included replacing piston rings, connecting rod bearings, resurfacing fuel injectors, and addressing issues with cylinder 3's heads and valves. December 2024: The shop requested additional money to complete the repair, claiming the need to order more parts from Audi. January 28, 2025: The owner confirmed receiving the necessary parts,  February 7th he stated he had an emergency and had to leave the country. February 21 2025: we visit the shop and I discovered my engine disassembled, with parts ordered from China rather than the promised Audi components. After expressing concern, I reluctantly agreed to have the engine reassembled, understanding I might lose the $3,000 deposit but fearing further losses. The owner promised the vehicle would be ready by March 3, 2025, along with the original contract and replaced parts. March 3rd 2025: scott from the BAR visit the shop to obtain the contract and it was closed.  Mando told him he was ill March 4, 2025: After following up, I was informed of a new issue with the rear tensioner, requiring another part. Mando claimed to have the part and promised to finish the repair.  He also confirmed he was not going to try and take any more money since he didn't complete the repairs. March 10, 2025: The shop was closed and is reportedly staying closed for the week, leaving my vehicle in pieces. I have since contacted local law enforcement, who indicated this may constitute embezzlement, and the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) has already issued a citation against the shop. In the meantime: My vehicle remains undrivable and disassembled for 4 months. I had to purchase another car, spending $5,000 on alternate transportation. I am left without my $3,000 deposit, with no resolution in sight. My 2014  Audi Q7 with 109k miles current market value is approximately $10,000 I have no vehicle to this day and no one will help me.

Mondo's is simply the best mechanic I Have ever had. He has…read moreworked on several of my vehicles over the years. There are no games with him he tells you what's wrong and fixes it with first time quality! You will never get " could be this or that let's replace this first crap". He has literally worked on 20 or more of my vehicles through out the years and I have never had to go back to him for the same problem never. When you find a Master mechanic like Mondo that can fix anything fro Mercedes to my Diesel F-250 there is usually a wait because others have also discovered just how good he is. Trust me he's worth the wait.

I am 67 years old and have had plenty of car repairs in my life but this place takes the cake they…read moreget you in with their "free" inspection then they have the outrageous diagnosis fee they force you to pay and if the work is way too high as this was a whopping $700 plus they forced me to pay the diagnosis fee just for spark plug job and threatened to have car off their property in 24 hours as I wasn't about to get taken like that and it took me less then an hour to save $150 plus no diagnosis from a shop that everyone says is good but expensive yet I saved $150 and no diagnosis fee. The first time I went there in June my car was in that shop for 7 DAYS for a brake and radiator flush job. They were rude to me and I am contacting the auto bureau about their practices this is ridiculous to charge these kind of fees and get you since your forced to pay their diagnosis so they think they have you and you will pay their fees for work well this time I didn't pay their over $700 job BEWARE!!!! They also tell your price in pennies such as $640 dollars and 36 pennies or whatever the cent price was to try to psych you into thinking your getting great price.
