★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 John Seif · Feb 2026

Had 3 separate encounters here. Had a state inspection done: no issues Had a random electrical problem, he couldnt fix it but didnt charge me for looking at it (great, earned my trust). Next, I took a car for a simple job, replacing a leaking valve cover gasket on both sides, I even provided them with a kit including a new gasket. (i was going to do it myself but this was during a week when temps were in the teens and i needed it done quick, as i dont have a garage to work in) He returned the car after charging me 400$. and it was still leaking a large amount of oil. I ended up doing the job myself the next day (fluke warm day) and found that he had never changed the gaskets. He washed off the oil from the engine and gave the keys back...thats it. I have never had someone lie about a servi

I want to support this local shop but they are just not reliable. I.paid for a repair over 2 weeks ago and it still hasn't been done right. Every time I bring it back, something goes wrong and I have to come back the next day, or even later. Just today they discovered they had been delivered the wrong part so I have to wait at least 2 more days for the repair. The owner and only mechanic is never there in the afternoon.

Based on my experience and a clear pattern of other reviewers, it seems like this place is a scam shop. Despite having new brakes installed less than two years ago and roughly 2k miles put on them, the owner insisted both the front and back pads and rotors needed to be fully replaced for the state inspection. But the good news was that he'd be happy to do it same day for over $1,200 (sarcasm). He also failed to fix two other simple issues after two visits. But he certainly didn't fail to charge for the service! I strongly recommend you to find another shop.

Don't let the past negatives steer you away from this shop. Scott is the hardest working guy I have ever met. Honest and affordable and always polite and friendly. I live in the neighborhood and have had all of my cars worked on by him - never an issue. Learned from him that he had a more than dishonest ex business partner - thus the negatives. Scott is all hands on and reliable. Give him a chance and you will not be disappointed.
