Spending real money on a vehicle for the first time was a big step for me. All my previous cars…read morewere ones I bought from friends who were selling, but it was time for an upgrade and a reliable family vehicle. That's where Vtek Motorsports came in, and Ali and his brother Shikeb made the entire experience truly great. They were upfront, honest, and actually trustworthy--which is rare in the car-buying world. Yes, their vehicles are salvaged, but let's be real--"salvaged" is just a term insurance companies throw around to settle claims. The van I got is amazing, runs great, and only has 51,000 miles! On top of that, they gave me way more than I expected for my trade-in, which was a huge plus. I came to them because a family friend, who has worked on all my cars for over 20 years (and whose word is gold when it comes to anything vehicle-related), highly recommended them. And I can honestly say, he was right. My boyfriend was a little hesitant about the "salvaged" title, so I pulled a Carfax report for peace of mind--and Vtek Motorsports even reimbursed me for it! That kind of honesty and customer service is almost unheard of. If you're looking for a dealership that genuinely cares about its customers and stands by its vehicles, Vtek Motorsports is the place to go. Ali and Shikeb truly made it a great experience. Highly recommend!

Although I wasn't completely surprised, they ran a solid and reliable business. We had excellent experience with Vtek working with Shikeb. He was professional, patient, and a pleasure to deal with. There was no pressure and no shenanigans. My son got a great first car and I have peace knowing it came from a place I can trust. Thank you for a great experience once again, Vtek!

I had a 10:00 appointment connected to a specific car, and spoke with a sales rep the evening…read morebefore my apt. Then I sent the sales staff two text messages the night before , but I didn't receive any response. Day of the apt, I took off work, drove for two hours, only to find the dealership was closed (at the time of my apt) and the truck that we all knew I was looking at was sold. No one called me. Even when I arrived at the closed dealership, they sent me a reply to my voicemail and text message when I asked where are they for my 10 apt. Response via text = "Car sold" nothing else. That is horrible communication and customer service. I know it is a small shop, but this is basic stuff. Be cautious of this dealership... does not seem to be customer focused... the only good thing was there Ai responses when checking availability.

We have a older suburban that has been sitting idle for years. Occasionally we round start it and…read moredrive it down the street, but now we need to use it. The check engine light was on so we couldn't smog it. Took it up our mechanic in Santee and they found a problem with the catalytic converter. They said one side was bad and recommended Hanson's to get it fixed. I called Hanson's and was able to get an appointment for the next day. While the car was there they found another problem that was an inexpensive fix. They were able to install the cat and make the other fix the same day. Overall I am very impressed with the work, service, and advice/direction I received from Hanson's.

1 Star - Would Not Recommend…read more I went to Ed Hanson's Muffler for a simple resonator/muffler delete, basic exhaust work. This shop used to have a solid reputation, which is the only reason I chose it. Unfortunately, that no longer seems to be the case. I arrived when they opened and clearly explained that I did not want to be stuck there all day. I don't live close by, and I needed to pick up my daughter from school later. I specifically told them I was completely fine dropping the car off and coming back once it was finished if the job was going to take a while. They laughed and said that wouldn't be necessary, and that they'd be in trouble if a job like this took that long, implying it would be done quickly. Instead, the work dragged on for most of the day. I was repeatedly told it was "almost done," which kept me waiting there instead of leaving. Had they been honest upfront, I would have left and returned later without any issue. During this time, the employee working on the car moved extremely slowly, frequently stopping to socialize, smoke, eat, and take extended breaks. There was no sense of urgency and no respect for my time. Because of this, I nearly ended up late picking up my daughter from school, which was exactly what I was trying to avoid by offering to drop the car off in the first place. To make matters worse, the final result was disappointing. The piping looks sloppy and unprofessional, like basic budget muffler work, yet the price was unreasonably high for the quality delivered. Ed Hanson's may have been a respectable shop at one point, but based on my experience and many others now a days, that standard is no longer there. Don't waste your hard-earned money or your time.

My friend Matt was storing his vintage F150 pick-up truck at my house for a while until he was…read moreready to start the restoration process. That time came and the first order of business was the transmission. Matt wanted Sparky's in Santee for the job. Matt lives in north county and I live in Santee, so he called Sparky's let them know what was up. I was to call to arrange to drop it off. Matt said the gentleman he spoke with, John, I believe, was super cool I called and spoke with John and he was indeed super cool. I made arrangements to drop off the truck the following day. The next day when I arrived I was greeted by John and he was as super cool in person as he was on the phone. I immediately knew why Matt picked Sparky's to take care of his truck. Fast forward about a week. I received a text from Matt. "Please give Sparky's a 5-star Yelp. They were f***n' awesome!" Next up is engine work and Sparky's even delivered the truck to Roy Wheeler Automotive where that will take place.
