I've been taking my vehicles there for the past 5 years. One of them is relatively new, about 4…read moreyears old, and one is older. When i first brought them work i was very happy, i recommended them often, and was in there pretty regularly. I felt their charges and diagnosis was good, I spoke with Cliff, an owner, and felt like a good small town garage, one of the few left.
But i must say over the past year, maybe 18 months, I've had 2 issues, one after the other, that turned into an absolute nightmare with them. I felt like i was way overcharged, not once but a couple times. I paid unbelievable amounts (at this time unbelievable), because I kind of had no choice, and i was so tired of the time it was taking them, weeks and weeks. like 5. Then got a 10% discount after my vehicle sat there 5 weeks, me calling every other day. It was like a joke, I'd ask when they thought it could be done, she's say, "Day after tomorrow he hopes to get it in and looked at". They knew i had another vehicle, and it wouldn't have been bad except they totally hosed me at the end with the bill. SO i had no choice but to pay the bill and drive away. And since, i asked for an aprox. price for something small i wanted done, and the amount for the simplicity of the work, just added insult to injury. They do pretty good work, I think, which is the one thing i do have to say, and usually if it's just a remove and replace, inspect etc... they're good with appointments.
So i can't say anything really bad, it's just how I feel and I think i'm more than fair, but i also will say i'm not as sure or happy with ABE the past year or so. I may continue to bring in my vehicles, probably for inspections or oil change, but i'm looking for a different place.
