He told me exactly what was wrong with my vehicle. He's also kind. I would recommend this shop to anyone.

My car is a 1988 Chevy Cavalier Z24 Convertible that has never been in an accident​ and has been in…read moreour family since it had 10K miles and was only 10 years old. In the fall of 2017 we replaced the top, put on four new tires, and attempted to fix an oil leak, all in we're talking $2,500 into a car with 140K miles that we thought might last another year or two, and still,​ have some potential resale value. Well in the late spring of 2018 it began to run extremely poorly and eventually died completely. Over the summer Jimmy took the car in as a project. He immediately fixed the oil leak that another shop was unsuccessful in identifying and fixing. Jimmy immediately knew what it was, a design flaw in that specific model engine that always began leaking late in life, it was a simple and inexpensive fix. The core problem though was vexing. After checking the ignition coils (there are three), the ignition induction plate, a whole series of sensors, the computer, and fuel pump it seemed that four​ of the original fuel injectors were drawing more current than they should be (I'd replaced two of the injectors two years prior). He replaced the injectors and the car was back up and running, although it was quickly determined that it was not perfect. After some additional extensive testing,​ it was determined that the computer, although it was "working" was not functioning properly and when it was replaced following the fuel injectors everything was back to running perfectly. It should be noted that this car is over 30 years old and has an ODB-1 class computer, this was the first generation of car computers. In certain conditions,​ this computer can will offer up NO diagnostic information while the engine is running horribly. Jimmy was like a detective solving a serial murder case, and he wasn't going to stop until the car was running properly. It should be noted that before I'd brought the car in I'd replaced the ignition​ cables, plugs, tracked a vacuum​ leak that I thought might have been preventing a sensor from working properly. In the end,​ Jimmy only charged me for the parts that were actually replaced, and a reasonable amount of labor. He'll have my business moving forward.

Once a great place to buy used cars but they no longer stand behind what they sell. I've probably…read morebought 5 cars from Westgate Imports over the years and until this last car, always had good luck. However, my daughter bought a Toyota Camry and it's been nothing but trouble. The first issue was within 2-3 weeks of purchase and Westgate's response was basically "tough". In the past, they would have stood by the car in some form or fashion. I will never buy or recommend this place again. If you want to, just realize you need to have the car independently checked out.

Where do I even begin with this shop!…read more I was looking for a local speed/performance shop to do some work on my 66 Impala SS. Needed the gas tank fixed (was leaking from the sending unit), needed a fuel pump replacement, and the steering box replaced. It is a big block 427 bored out to a 496. I showed the car to Grover who assured me, that even though he was semi-retired, he would oversee all the work done to my car. I trusted him to do that. The lady behind the counter was completely and totally useless to work with. When I brought the car in so they can start the work, she said "I don't know where to get parts for this car...its a classic car". REALLY? Its a Chevy big block with parts available anywhere on the internet (Jegs, Summit, etc) or at ANY auto parts store. She was so inept that I actually had to order the parts online and have them install it. So lets get to the repair quality: 1. Leaking gas tank. She said they have to drain the tank to repair it. Ok, so do what you need to do...unreal...drain the freaking tank! They claimed to have fixed the problem, and when I went to pickup the car the gas tank was almost completely empty. They never refilled it up to the point where the gas was at the sending unit leak. Needless to say, it still leaks. They added some new plumbing parts that weren't needed to fix the problem. Complete fail on their side. She actually told me "Grover approved the work and it's complete". Ummm....FAIL! 2. Replace fuel pump. The car wasn't running because the fuel pump went bad and wasn't sending fuel to the carburetor. I supplied a new fuel pump from AeroMotive. Upon inspection of their work, I see the tech screwed the fuel pump underneath the trunk with two sheetrock screws. How do I know this? Well they left the sharp ends of the screws sticking up into my trunk by at least 1/4 inch. I found out when trying to install some Subs in the trunk and noticed the two screws from the fuel pump protruding through the trunk bed. FAIL! Why wouldnt they use two sheet metal bolts and nuts with some blue locktite? Would Grover had accepted this on his car? She actually told me "Grover approved the work and it's complete". Ummm....FAIL! 3. Finally, the steering box. This appears to be installed properly, but there is still a small hydraulic fluid leak coming from that area. Could be the pump or hose connection. Why didn't they diagnose that? She actually told me "Grover approved the work and it's complete". Ummm....FAIL! Grover's tag line is "We make it feel right".... Well, if by "feel right" he means "we are inept" then yes, I agree. I paid just under $1,100 for their work. They had the car for almost a month. When I complained about the work, she said that she "spoke to the new manager and I would have to bring my car back in so he can look at it". NO FREAKING WAY will I bring my car back there. I should have done the work myself but I just didn't have time. Lesson learned. Make the time to do it yourself and STAY FAR AWAY FROM McNAIR PERFORMANCE/Westgate Auto where the techs work who Grover 'supervised'.
