I clearly told them I would buy all the parts myself, including the lower ball joints, oil, and oil filter, and I did. I was only paying for labor. When I arrived, the price was changed and I was told it would be $250, even though that was not what we agreed on. I understand prices can go up or down, but once a price is agreed on, especially after I canceled a different auto body shop, it should be honored. I also have an audio record of the original conversation. The person who did my oil change was very nice and professional, and I appreciate that. However, changing the price after an agreement was disappointing. I came here based on good reviews and recommendations. Keeping your word matters if you want returning customers.

Straight up guy. If for some reason it's outside of his normal realm, he says so! Realize this is rare- he is telepathic- haha. Can see your car and somehow understands it. Can't recommend them enough. If you live in West Adams area, your lifetime search is over. Bottom line, he knows how to do good business. Period. Quick anecdote, friend from Argentina that just bought a used car, - it broke down suddenly -had to get it towed- and couldn't get it to them till just after closing. One of the guys stayed after closing time to wait for her car and to help her navigate what's next. Good people!

I brought my 2017 Subaru Impreza in for a blinking engine temperature/ coolant light issue and they…read morequoted me 800 bucks for a new radiator. The next day, they called me saying they fixed the radiator, but there was an internal leaking issue that the mechanic couldn't figure out and that I should immediately go trade in the car before the engine fails. He gave me zero plausible or any technical explanation for what the origin of the issue was and added another 100 dollars to my service fee. I decided to take my car to a mechanic who is more accustomed to dealing with Subarus with the incredibly vague explanation I received from the mechanic rather than go sell or trade in the car because one person told me he can't fix it. The next day, I received an actual explanation of what the issue was, which was a cross contamination issue with the coolant and engine oil that can happen with the specific engine that Subarus are equipped with and he was able to give me an actual quote to fix the issue rather than telling me to trade in or sell the car. Furthermore, he said that changing the radiator should have only cost me a couple hundred dollars max and that the issue with the engine could have been prevented if I went to an experienced mechanic in the first place! I was overcharged by more than double the actual price of parts and service and literally told to go trade in the car after paying $880 dollars, which I had to haggle down from $900 after the price increased overnight. Please don't come here for any repairs as they are not qualified to provide proper service, yet will overcharge you without any agreement. The mechanic also demanded cash only or he would charge me even more with a credit card, which was extremely inconsiderate of the customer's financial situation in a tough economy. 차를 수리하러 왔다가 비싸봐야 3-400불 (다른곳에 350이면 충분하다고 하였습니다) 하는 서비스에 900 불 뜯어내면서 차를 고치지 못했고 무슨 이슈인지 전혀 모르겠으니까 임시적으로 굴러다닐때 빨리 다른 차로 바꾸라는 황당한 답변 받았습니다. 무책임 한 일처리가 더 화가 나는지 무능력한 수리이후 나몰라하는 태도가 더 화가 나는지 모르겠는데 엄청나게 큰 금액을 지불하고 또 다시 큰 금액내면서 다시 수리를 맞겨야하는 다른 피해자 생길까봐 리뷰를 남깁니다. 이것만 해도 너무 화가나는데 카드는 안된다고 현금 결재를 요구하였습니다. 다른 피해자 생기지 않도록 제 경험을 올리니 제발 다른곳을 알아보세요.

However, I took my car "that I've always taken to the dealer for an oil change" here. And the next day it was leaking oil everywhere. Unfortunately, I wasn't in town to bring it right away, and had to bring it back to the shop about 2 weeks later . (Still leaking btw) they said it was the "gasKeT" and I would have to pay another $48 to get this repaired. They said I should have brought it the day after i got the oil changed. Later after all the back and forth they offered to cover the costs for labor ,but I would have to pay for the part. Which was $3. I did not expect for them to charge me at all considering i had returned literally about 2 weeks later. (And called them over the phone twice to advise what was going on" They said i was "taking advantage" and told me god was watching. They said there was no way of knowing the part was damaged or defective . In my opinion they should have checked the gasket while doing the oil change . I ended up paying $10 which I didn't feel was fair but; at least they could pay off their $3 part they replaced. Next day after the lecture and "repair" ITS LEAKING AGAIN! haaaahahah now I have to go to the dealer and figure out what they broke on my car. I'm glad I didn't pay the $48 the second time around considering I came in with a car that was perfectly fine and left with a leaking car . THANK YOU LA TIRES AND AUTO BODY SHOP !!! :) I've spent $120 total for oil, filter, labor, a "gasket" and now I have a car with a bigger problem and NO OIL . DO NOT GO HERE !
