Story time! I Normally wouldn't be this guy but I feel scammed. So a little back story first, i…read moretook my old 05 Buick Rainer suv to McKinney's Auto Repair that I used in the past that I trusted and had faith in being a good person. The shop owner and I had no issues in the past and in fact he put in parts in my older car and didn't charge me for them due to it not fixing the underlying issue. Fast forward to today, I brought my GFs car to the same shop on Friday the 17th of January and informed them that I just wanted to find out the issue with the heat but I wanted to be informed on the plan to fix it before any further repairs were done. Was told that they couldn't find anything wrong with it and thought it just needed the heater core flushed. Me working on cars in the past whenever I've needed to. Knew how to flush the heater core myself. The picture of the two hoses are the two needed to take off In order to flush the heater core. The job should have taken no longer than an hr to do, but I was charged for two hrs instead. Now here's the issues, I told them I needed the car back asap and that I couldn't really afford to let the car stay any longer than a day because it was a daily driven vehicle. I was informed by Bobby the shop owner that they would be able to get to it fast if I was to drop it off early in the morning when they opened up. So I did! But was told it wouldn't be done and flushed by the end of day so I didn't get the car back until the day after! So Saturday comes along and I get a text saying the heater core flush didn't work and that the heater core itself needed to be fixed instead. Me being frustrated because of course the issue was never fixed and no parts were added to the car and they were late already but still charged me! Which was totaled out to 165. I paid for this the day before on Friday ahead of time so I could just pick it up on Saturday or later that day Friday without having to deal with anything from them or them having to be there on their day off, out of consideration to them. But when me and my Gf got there the keys weren't in the car, after calling them multiple times after being texted the flush didn't work. I got no answer or text reply back! I was at a stand still cause no one was at the shop and we lived an hr away in Indy. So we left for about a half hr and then came back. But the shop employees or Bobby still weren't there when we arrived for the 2nd time! I called again and then sent a picture of the car you see above sitting at his shop to him. Some employees then shortly arrived after a few minutes but acted like they knew nothing about what was going on and didn't even know the payments for the work was already paid for. So there was a lack of communication and When i asked what their shop rate was to the employee of Bobby's he informed me he didn't know. So i expressed to him the job itself to flush the heater core should have Taken no more than an hr to do. The employee scuffed at me and called up Bobby, I also expressed that i should be compensated for the issue not being fixed in some way. Because I felt that to be the right thing to do. When I brought and expressed my concerns up to the employee and Bobby they acted like they didn't care and that regardless if it was fixed or not the work was done on it. Which i understand but any good hearted person would have tried to make it right regardless. When i realized nothing was going to be offered to make it right i then told Bobby to keep the money and i was going to go else where. When this was said to Bobby his employee gave me the biggest smile in return. The professionalism that I got from them this time made me feel like in the past with my old Buick maybe the professionalism I had thought I got from them was possibly all a hoax. I put so much money and effort to have them fix my Buick time and time again only for Bobby later to tell me my car was trashed after taking it there one day and coincidentally he offered to buy it from me. You can make up your own opinion and not take mine into consideration but Needless to say I don't recommend going here! unless you want to be charged double and want to be scammed!

So, here some truths to be fair. He's right about speed, Robert is slow. Robert takes his time and does the job right and that's why he won best shop of 2024. Furthermore, this guy sounds like a huge pain in the ass as a customer. I think anyone reading this would understand sometimes stuff doesn't just go the way it needs to in order to just have a car fixed in one day, Robert would never do anything to hurt anyone. Robert is the best mechanic in our area guaranteed.
