By far the worst experience I've had with any mechanic. I took my Datsun there to get the frame patched and floorboards repaired. The initial estimate I was given in June was $800-1000 and they said the work could be done in a day once they could fit me in. My car continued to sit at their shop for the next 6 MONTHS while I continued to get excuses about being busy and employees leaving. In November they finally left me a voicemail saying the work was done and I could pick it up any time. Before I had a chance to call back, they reached out a few days later and said they would start charging me a $20 a day storage fee until I picked it up. When I came to pick up my car that weekend, it wouldn't start. I had asked them to fix the starter and although the issue was unrelated it was still very irritating. Almost three weeks later they fixed the worn bushing and I picked up my car. To make matters worse, I also discovered a large scorch mark on my window and later I found they had replaced my working automotive battery with an old marine and RV battery.
IN SUMMARY: The work they did on the frame and floorboards seems well done and I realize that jobs like this can turn into more than expected. However, this does not make up for the fact that a $1000 one day estimate turned into $3000 6 month job, new window tint and a new battery. Thoroughly annoyed and will never take my car there again. ~Ian
