It had been a very busy year and I still had many demands on my time that were not related to the trip, and I was stressed. I asked them to do routine engine maintenance and to find out why the dashboard AC had stopped working. They did as I asked and found and fixed the problem with the AC right away. I wanted new tires plus a spare for the trip. Savio referred me to Ramon's and they did a wonderful job with the tires, including locating a rim for the spare. The Solis has no space for a spare. I ordered a mounted from Landed Gear and had it shipped to Leales and Leales followed the instructions for the installation so that the spare stayed put even when we drove the famously rough Alcan Highway there and back. The road is built on permafrost and its reputation has not been exaggerated - we encountered one car with two flat tires - but with good tires and slow driving, we never needed our spare. We also did not experience the problems I've read people have with other brands or improperly installed back door mounted spare tire racks: broken window or warping of the metal doors.

AVOID LEALE'S RV -- Misleading, Frustrating, and Unprofessional…read more I had a really frustrating experience with Leale's RV, particularly with Michael in their service department. I brought in my 2024 Thor motorhome for a battery-related issue. Michael incorrectly told me that my coach does not support Group 31 AGM batteries and insisted I would need to spend nearly $2,000 to upgrade to lithium. He was adamant, repeatedly citing his past experience working at Thor (from years ago) as the basis for his claims--even though the coach came from the factory with Group 31s. He had a condescending attitude and loves to talk on the phone explaining how experienced he was. Meanwhile, he keeps sending me photos of their posted $239/hr labor rate as if that justified the misdiagnosis or poor service, rather than addressing the actual issue. It felt like a deflection rather than a solution. Thankfully, Savio his manager was able to step in, confirm the unit was indeed compatible with Group 31 batteries, and help me get the right battery installed immediately. I bought the battery myself and dropped it off for a quick, proper install--something that should've happened from the beginning. Although I'm having to pay for the diagnostics even though they have the authorization from the manufacturer to cover the diagnostics! To make matters worse, I was told they wouldn't cash the reimbursement check from the manufacturer (Thor), but they cashed it anyway, leaving me out $700 and damaging my relationship with Thor. I had to chase down Thor myself for clarification and deal with the fallout. Despite talking to them on June 26 and then explaining that they closed the case and zero checks would be cashed. July 16 and Thor confirms the check was indeed cashed. This whole experience left me feeling deceived, ignored, and frustrated. Between the incorrect technical advice, the lack of accountability, and the poor communication, I cannot recommend Leale's RV to anyone looking for honest, competent service. I'm just glad that I did not pay for them to upgrade my batteries at $1,800 because the coach already supports lithium batteries.

As you can clearly read, ownership allows it's employees free reign to malign customers while embarrassing themselves. Imagine what these people will do to your vehicle if they're having a bad day. 4 to 3 to 1 stars. Let me clarify Jim's childish response. When I went in to the PG location (not by phone) to get the tire quote, they're professional response should have been as follows: "A four-tire install without the programming sensors is $160, and an additional $60 if we have to program them. In addition, you can purchase the sensors here for $54, or you can get them at NAPA Auto Parts for $29." PMS answer to my question? "It's $160". This answer was lazy, inept and quite unprofessional. I'll leave it at that. If they care to continue this behavior, I'll get a restraining order. Pretty simple. I've been going to Monterey Motors (Greg) for a very long time. He is great and suoer nice. He just doesn't do tires and he is busirler than usual. Try them out. It saves time by not having to write a bad review, for which I notice, PMS gets quite a few.

You drive said dealership-maintained car to your hometown where your A.D.D. kicks in and you fill the afore mentioned DIESEL car up with *wait for it* UNLEADED gas. Somehow through the shame...the horror...the hiccup cries and desperate refrains of, "My boyfriend is soooo gonna break up with me" I got the car towed to Greg Bean Auto. A few facts about Greg Bean Auto 1. Greg Bean stayed in constant communication with myself and my boyfriend (3000 miles away) 2. Greg Bean can fly (this has not been confirmed) 3. Greg Bean et al. actually fixed the car in less than a day and fixed the car's power locks too; a job that had been estimated at $900 at the S.F. Mercedes dealership (no lie). He gave us an amazing deal. 4. Greg Bean is a huge proponent of Bio-diesel. Which I don't know much about, but I know all the kids are talking about it so it must be good. 5. Greg Bean doesn't advertise. We happened to find a glowing review on Yelp. G.B. is clearly in it for love of the game and that's pretty cool. In summation- if Greg Bean tells you to drink the Kool-Aide, you should.

My friend had checked out the car and said it was a O2 sensor, which I replaced but it was still on. So I went to Greg's for some professional help (on Halloween no less). He was very friendly, did a free scan, and reset my engine light because the read-out was indeed just that. Problem solved! I was able to return the other O2 sensor and save $60! What a Treat! Thanks! :D I wanted to give him 5 stars but experienced a disheartening part 2. Part 2: I needed an oil change (I forgot about it the first time I visited) and I figured I'd give my business to Greg since he's made a great impression on me the first time. Unfortunately it ended up taking way too long and costing quite a premium. I scheduled for a 10:30am appointment and arrived there on the dot. All the car lifts were taken when I arrived and it took until around 11:15 before getting to my car onto the lift. I was called at 11:45 to take a look at the car in which recommendations were given for timing and drive belt replacements. Greg said he will check on the factory recommended replacement times and pricing details, but it seems the computer was pre-occupied with another task. Then a complicated personal phone call came in and I waited again for him to get back to me. I am a very patient guy and always give people the benefit of the doubt, thinking their day is just unusually busy, but it was 12:15pm and I felt I couldn't wait anymore. I found his son Greg Jr. and had him look things up for me. Shortly after, Greg Sr. finished the call and was able to ring me up so I can get going. The price he was going to ring me up for was $102! 0.0!! Needless to say, I was stunned! Now, I have to admit I never asked for a price quote ahead of time, but I figured an oil change could only cost so much! Boy was I wrong! It's especially staggering since I just moved from San Jose and was used to $20-40 oil changes. He told me they charge 1/2 hour minimum labor (based on $100 per hour) and that he used Mobil oil and a Bosch filter - I found it retails total $27 locally, which translates to about $70 for labor. In the end he lowered it to $76 as a first time service. Greg Jr came and gave me the quote for the belts, I paid and left at 12:30pm, still a bit dazed. I felt kind of sick afterwards. Now that I think about it, I never did sign anything allowing for work on the car beforehand. In retrospect, I should have definitely asked for an estimate ahead of time (perhaps one should have been provided regardless?) and spoken up much sooner regardless of their workload. Lastly, I am not saying Greg is not good at what he does, I'm sure he knows his stuff inside and out and has a great attitude, but for maintenance duties there are other places that are willing to do the work faster and more professionally for a lot less.

The RV had to be ready to take me to San Diego where I will start my new job. As the inspection continued the number of mandatory safety and repair issues increased exponentially. I can honestly say they saved my life and probably the lives of everyone else on the road with me. This is no exaggeration. I am driving a 33000 pound vehicle. When you step on the brakes you need the vehicle to come to a complete stop safely. You want the lights to work, the electrical to work, the plumbing to work and the propane not to leak. Bay Area RV found and fixed so many crucial items that I would never have known about if it wasn't for them. Even though my total repair bill was significantly higher than I could ever have anticipated, I now have a safe , fully operational and beautiful RV that will last me for many years to come. I can't list all the details because they would be too numerous, but the number of times they have cut cost, discounted labor, and went above and beyond to work with their vendors and mine to get me the best possible price for the mandatory parts I needed is more than I think anyone else would have ever done for me. Even after I am down in San Diego I am going to drive that RV right back up here for any major work that needs to be done because I know it will be done right and with honor and with integrity. I can honestly say that they put me ahead of their own profits. My final bill was high but that is not their fault and it could have been much much worse if I had taken it to someone else.
