    I had scheduled fluid changes for my vehicle. The work was scheduled for Tuesday but I was called…read moreby the service manager and informed that the technicians (two) had called "out". I was asked if the vehicle could be kept another day and I agreed. On Wednesday morning, I received a text that work had begun. Around 3:50 in the afternoon, I had heard nothing so texted to get a status. The response was that they would be done in 45 minutes. I reminded the service manager about the fact that another dealership had suggested that the brake pads might need to be replaced. He texted that they were just starting the measures. No further texts came. Was the truck ready? I was expecting communication either that the brakes were good and I could get the truck or they needed work. Nothing. I texted after hours for an update and the service manager texted the next morning saying he had already told me the truck would be ready. When I got to the dealership, I was walked me through what was done per the paperwork and assured these were straightforward tasks and that I was doing the right thing by my vehicle. 10 miles from the dealer the radiator hose popped off - it hadn't been properly secured. The engine temperature alarm went off. I pulled over. I called the dealer who arranged to have the truck towed and a "loaner" provided. It took a while but eventually an older Dodge Dart covered with dog hair arrived. The service manager contacted me later that day and said everything was buttoned up and they would have one of their staff drive it up and exchange for the loaner. When I get in the truck the check engine light is still lit. So.. things weren't buttoned up and this kid just drove my truck for 30 miles with the check engine light on. I called a local parts store to ask about clearing the codes and mentioned I had had work done at Town and Country and his immediate unprompted response was "Sorry.". The next day I took the truck to another mechanic to have him review the work as I was headed out of town on a long trip in some remote areas. The fluid levels and plugs seemed ok, but the air filter I was shown wasn't. It's like they just don't care. I called and asked to speak with the General Manager who is also a part owner. He didn't pick up so I left a voicemail detailing the above and leaving my number in case he wanted to call back and discuss it. He did not.

    Made an appointment for diagnosis of several issues. Spent 10 min on the phone with a lady who was…read morevery friendly and professional giving her extensive details and descriptions of my issues, which I could hear her typing in. Called and left a message several days before to double check my appointment time. No call back. Called again twice, early and late in the day, the day before and left two more messages asking about my appointment time. No response. Decided to just get there first thing to make sure I wasn't late. Got there and the service guy didn't seem too enthused about helping me. Then he says there was no record of my appointment, nor was there any record of the extensive descriptions to the multiple issues that the lady put into the system. He's like "so what's goin on with it?" I just said they didn't seem very professional and got my keys and left. Got up early and drove an hour for nothing. Prob a good thing because I had brought it in 3 yrs before when it was under warranty for the air recirculation not working and they said it was working fine. After leaving I checked it and it was still not working. Brutal. Thought maybe that since a big Denver dealer bought the dealership they would have a more professional operation with capable techs but apparently it's just a new name with the same people running it. Obviously would not recommend.

Since we were on our way home to Denver, this was immensely helpful to narrow down the potential issue and he let us know it wouldn't be wise to drive on the misfiring cylinder. While they couldn't fit us in same day, he was helpful in guiding us elsewhere. If I were from the area, I'd absolutely feel comfortable using their services for automotive work!

I called several times and finally heard back that they could not get to it. On Wednesday they said that my transmission was ok and they needed more time to diagnose it. I told them I had to have it back by Friday to drive back to Texas. Thursday they told me that it needed new catalytic converters and some of the parts were in Denver and if they could get them delivered on Friday they would get it fixed. I told them that I would get them from Denver if needed. They said they would call me first thing Friday morning. I did not hear anything and started calling at 8:30. Finally when I called for the third time at 12:38 he texted me that he would call me right back. At 1:18 he called back to tell me that he could not get the parts until Saturday and they could put them on Monday. I told him that I had to come get it. He charged me for 4 hours at $160 an hour and did not give me a report because his computer was down. Would not give my keys until he ran my card or gave him $500 cash or $660 on my card. So he used extortion for me to get my truck. Hope he didn't pocket the cash. No diagnostic report or explanation of what he did for four hours. Very unprofessional and unorganized.

Coming from North Carolina and needing to get back in a few days, Mike the service manager really helped and made sure we were taken care of. Even speaking on their work if we have any issues when we get back home to give him a call. Highly recommend!

    Yelp Review - Sal's Auto Tech, Centennial, CO I've never had…read morea more traumatic automotive experience in my life. On March 4, 2026, I drove my 2007 RAV4 to Sal's Auto Tech for a simple battery and alternator replacement. My car is my lifeline and income source, and at the time, my temporary home. I called the shop that morning; Audrey was friendly but told me I'd need to bring the car in for an estimate. I arrived around 10 AM, waited an hour in the office, then the mechanic took me to the shop -- my car was already lifted on the hoist. Instead of focusing on my simple request, the mechanic spent hours inspecting tires, brakes, suspension, and the underside, ignoring me repeatedly. I eventually asked about the price for the battery and alternator. The mechanic acted offended, and another employee quoted $1,700. and they installed them, but during the process broke my radiator. Then I was told a piece of my radiator had been broken by their mechanic. They said it could be fixed the next morning. I asked if I could stay in the parking lot safely overnight -- they refused. When I requested my property back, they called the police and had me trespassed. I was humiliated, scared, and forced to drive 7 miles to a Walmart parking lot to sleep safely. The next morning, I towed my car back to the shop ($190). I met with Sal, gave him the broken radiator piece, and he was rude, dismissive, and baffled that their mechanics had broken it. He told me I was trespassed and could not stay near the property. Even after two days, the radiator was still not properly repaired -- just topped off. On March 6, they sent me a handwritten note falsely blaming me for radiator damage. The accusations were completely false and misleading, adding stress on top of an already humiliating situation. I drove 10 miles to Denver, and the temperature gauge went immediately red. I went straight to Jiffy Lube, where within five minutes, they discovered the lower radiator hose had never been connected, spilling coolant everywhere. They fixed it promptly, refilled the radiator, and confirmed my car was safe. During this entire ordeal, I lost income every day, was ignored, dismissed, and gaslit, and experienced fear and humiliation from being trespassed and blamed. The shop clearly took their time because they knew I couldn't confront them on-site, and their attitude made it clear they found my distress amusing. My experience was not just bad service -- it was emotionally traumafinancially damaging, and completely unprofessional. If you rely on your car for work, safety, or even basic transportation, do not go to Sal's Auto Tech. They broke my property, refused to take responsibility, involved the police unnecessarily, and left me stranded. I cannot overstate the stress, fear, and frustration I endured. Honest, competent mechanics at Jiffy Lube resolved the issue in minutes -- something Sal's could have done immediately. Avoid this shop entirely.
