The vehicle was in their possession for over three weeks, and when it was returned, several of the same issues remained unresolved. I even brought it back the following day for an oil leak that was still not corrected. I have since obtained an independent inspection indicating that some of the services I was charged for were not performed or could not be verified, along with additional concerns identified after their repair. At this point, I am no longer comfortable returning the vehicle to the same shop and am pursuing formal complaints and small claims. Update: The business responded publicly asking me to reach out, however I have already contacted them multiple times (including emails sent on April 7 and April 10) and received no response. I am still waiting for a resolution. paid $3,087.65 for repairs that, according to a licensed mechanic's written inspection, were not completed. My vehicle was in the shop for over three weeks, and I was charged for a CV axle replacement, tire replacement, and tire services that were not actually performed. The vehicle is still leaking oil. They also missed repairs like the serpentine belt and wheel bearings. If said work was actually done they wouldn't have missed the wheel bearings, and serpentine belt while they had the engine apart and while apparently replacing the left front CV/axel. Which I would have happily paid for. I have reached out to the business to resolve this and have received no response. This has been an extremely frustrating and costly experience. I would not trust this shop without verifying all work independently.

When you walk into the waiting room, the smell of fresh coffee and cookies greets you. The lounge…read morearea has newspapers, reading material and a TV. As you glance around you notice a container of free snacks, fresh cookies and the password to their WiFi connection. A play area for children and a frig of soda and water for customers. It seems hard to believe you have come to Grease Monkey in Ruskin for an oil change or other car service they provide. Owners Joe and Mellisa Canfield set the standard for customer service and fair prices. From Kurt Beachler who greets you as you enter to the mechanic who will explain the service they provided you will join the list of satisfied customers who keep coming back. This location has been recognized for the service they provide as a wall of accolades and certificates of merit will attest to. I must admit I was tempted to go back for seconds on the chocolate chip cookies but a second cup of coffee took priority.

Then imagine my disappointment when I was going to take it out to run around the block two days after limping it home from Total and it was totally dead. Not only will I not return there for any type of service on any vehicle I own or will ever own, I will share my experience with anyone who asks my opinion, and some who don't.

I contacted the Hyundai dealer who quoted me $5000 for just the 2 front shocks. I bought the 4 replacement shocks online for $1,550 at Richie's suggestion. Richie's installed them for $600. So I saved $3,000. This is the 2nd repair Richie's has done for me. His pricing is really fair and the quality of his work is fantastic.

They cut out a rusted piece of the roof, welded in a new piece, and leveled it out. It really looks like it rolled from the factory like that. Richie (Rico I believe is his actual name) is super friendly and very polite, despite my impatience with the communication issues. His calm and very kind personality quickly defused my frustrations and led me to actually plan on coming back to have them do the paint when it's ready. I originally gave them a one-star review due to the communication issues and how long the repairs took. But decided to up it to four stars because of the quality and how polite Richie was. Update 4/2/2024: I actually ended up bringing the car back to have Richie's do my rusted floor pans and trunk after another shop quoted me over $6,000. These guys did an incredible job for 1/3 of the price. They even installed a convenient fuel-pump-access panel in the trunk, sealed the new pans, and even put body filler in to make it look factory. What an incredible job! I cannot wait to come back for the body work and paint, which they gave me a very fair estimate on. I think I've found my go-to body shop!
