I dropped off my car here for a diagnostic concerning a fluid leak. The next morning I received a…read morecall back, assuring me the cause of the leak was a simple loose oil drain plug and oil filter, the issue was totally fixed, and it was no longer leaking. I picked my car up to find, after only 30 minutes of being home, that there was still a leak. I called and the man said it was "residual" and to run it through a car wash and it would be fine. I did as he instructed, but it continued leaking. I took it back to them that same day, and when they looked at it again they said it "looks like" the leak is coming from the oil filter, but likely wasn't the filter itself, rather it was the part the filter connects to on the engine. They were willing to replace that part for $500, and when I asked "but you don't know if that's actually going to fix the leak?" he said no. I spent $75 for the "diagnostic", $22 for a car wash, plus about $50 in Uber rides over the course of 24 hours and still never got an actual diagnosis for the leak. These guys are willing to load up the parts cannon (with your money, of course) and just start shooting. Biggest waste of time and money. Do not take your car here unless you are willing to spend entirely too much for them to only guess what might be wrong with your car, instead of simply cleaning the engine, adding some dye to the oil and looking to see where the leak is coming from - otherwise known as performing a proper diagnostic for an oil leak. To make matters worse, I also found a few things missing from my car after I left. It only cost me $50 to replace what was taken, but still, not a good look. It's also worth mentioning that when I took my car back to them for a second attempt at a proper diagnostic, I overheard a conversation between the man I dealt with through this process and another guy who was working there. They didn't realize I had come in yet, and the door between the lobby and the garage was left wide open so I overheard the one say he was going to "bring some of those pre rolls" and I'm assuming they were referring to pre rolled marijuana cigarettes, as I am not familiar with any other type of "pre rolls" that would make sense in the context of that particular conversation. I will never take my car to this or any AAMCO ever again. This was by far the worst experience I have ever had with a large, well known company I previously thought of as reputable, and it was also my worst experience with any mechanic, ever.

DO NOT GO TO THIS BUSINESS! They are shady, and unprofessional, and try to take advantage of you!…read more On April 10, 2020 my wife took her Chevy Tahoe to Dave's Automotive right next door because the vehicle was shaking from under the hood while driving. Dave's advised that it MAY be something with the transmission, and they don't do transmission work, but they recommended that she go to Aamco right next door (across the parking lot). She went next door, and Aamco charged $45 for a diagnostic. They drove the vehicle and came back and said that there were leaks in the transmission, some gears were slipping, and metal shards in the transfer case/gearbox. They gave a quote of $3300.00 for a rebuilt transmission. We brought the truck home and put it in the garage while we were trying to figure out where to come up with $3300.00 and contemplating just getting another vehicle. I then remembered, one of my fraternal brothers owns a transmission shop (since 1987). I reached out to him to have him take a look at it. I took it to him on April 17,2020 and after driving it on I-71 for 4 exits at 80 MPH, he immediately diagnosed that the shaking wasnt from the transmission. He drove it back to his shop and looked up underneath at the transmission and said the transmission was fine and looked great (no leaks). He then diagnosed that the shaking was likely from a misfire. He recommended changing the spark plugs & wires. He personally couldn't replace the spark plugs and wires because he strictly does transmissions. Today April 20th, I had a mechanic family member replace the spark plugs and wires. I bought the OEM plugs & wires, plus I paid the mechanic. Total spent: $140.00! Problem solved. Truck is now riding like new! Also today, my wife and I went back to Aamco to lodge a complaint. The young fella at the desk said he was the manager (I forgot his name). We proceeded to tell him what happened. He kept saying, the transmission is gonna go out unless we do something about the leaks and metal shards. I told him that I took it elsewhere and it was diagnosed by a transmission specialist with over 30 years experience who said that nothing is wrong with the transmission. He kept saying it was. I advised him that he knows good and damn well that the NEVER diagnosed it, and just saw my wife come in alone, and saw dollar signs! This is absolutely pathetic and unprofessional! Another woman in the lobby while we were there said she brought her car in 2 months ago because it was shaking and $600.00 later, she's having the same exact problem. She said it was still shaking the same day she picked it up. At that time they said she needed a different part and would fix it when the part came in. That was 2 months ago and her car still isn't fixed! There's not an auto parts store in America where you wait 60 days + for a part, unless it's a classic car. Her car couldn't have been no more than 6-7 yrs old! This place is shady! THE WORST BUSINESS PRACTICES IN ALL OF CENTRAL OHIO! Not one time did this "manager" apologize or offer the $45.00 back for the OBVIOUS misdiagnosis! He just kept "defending the diagnosis that was given"! But don't worry, I got a really big and loud mouth! I will be placing reviews here on Google and Yelp. I will be sharing this horrible customer experience via all social media platforms and my over 5,000 followers. I will also lodge a formal complaint with the BBB, the Reynoldsburg City Attorney, and Reynoldsburg City Council, as I have a personal friend who currently sits on the City Council.

I called last Friday after having talked to different businesses about getting my tire rim repaired or replaced. None of them gave me any real satisfactory information so the search continued until I got to Dave's. I believe it was Kevin that I spoke with (I'm sorry, the name escapes me). He was very informative and quite pleasant on the phone, giving me quotes and guarantee information on their service and products. Saturday, I drove up to get the rim repaired, only to find that they were/are "closed on Saturdays until further notice". I went back on Monday and met with him to review my rim's condition. He took a look and gave me a very clear explanation and what I should expect. He even suggested that I could expedite matters by taking it directly to their service center for repair. I told him that I was comfortable leaving it with him and could wait a few days. I left the tire with him feeling good about things. It was early Tuesday when he called to let me know that the repair was complete (much sooner than I expected). I drove back and picked it up, extremely pleased with their timeliness. My added bonus came when he reviewed the condition of the damaged tire with me to show me exactly why it was unsafe for use. He had conducted a search to get me pricing on tires, even though I told him I was getting it replaced at no charge by the company responsible for the bad tire. I did indicate that I will be using him in the future... ...and so should you. But when/if you do, as always, be sure to tell 'em that "Kenny sent ya"!
