I would give zero stars if I could. They are NOT a restoration shop. They are con artists. The little work they did they charged for a full job. Not only let me leave with my shocks not connected, the steering wheel nut was on last thread which could have been a disaster. They ruined frame by drilling holes in it. Paid them over $35,000, 2 years and car was not even close to being completed. Find another resto shop!
Unbelievable small-town mechanic shop. I saw a bunch of their muscle cat restorations, and they are awesome. But that's not what I came for. I needed welding on the frame of an old pickup to pass inspection. They did an amazing job. The staff is top-notch. True motor heads. The additional work I requested on the pickup was also completed. They are quick in their turnarounds, and the work is perfect.
So, I brought my tricked out Jeep in for servicing also. They caught some items I was not aware of and would have cost me a ton had they not thoroughly checked the Jeep out and fixed it now. I am very picky about who touches my yeep, besides me, MRW will be the only ones working on it.
That led to me taking my daughter's Cherokee in. Again, they found items needing to he fixed that were not on my list but absolutely needed them. I made the mistake of passing on one item, head gasket replacement. The wife said she didn't think it was necessary. Wrong. I brought it home and then found out from my daughter that she's been having to add oil. Yup, because it was trickling out through gaps in the head gasket.
Lastly, we took the wife's 4 door Jeep Wrangler in. They did everything we requested within a day or two, including a full set of tires and mechanical work.
All my vehicles will be serviced by MRW from now on. Thank you, Boss Man Dave, for having such a great, professional, thorough, and friendly staff.
Update - 3/13/2025 - Some staff left, some new staff, still awesome. Welcome Anna!
Friday I hit a deer with my new 2017 Volvo that I had for only two months. It’s my baby.
There’s no where else I would have trusted to take it to get fixed. I trust their work and they have very experienced auto technicians. Dave Sr. is professional always taking care of his customers and is pleasant and easy to talk to.He’s like family.
2 different inspections,,, I fixed everything on the first inspection (270$ in parts and did both sides of the vehicle at that price in parts, was quoted 2200$ for them to do one side of the vehicle, so prob 3k+ to get both sides done by them). Brought it back for the second inspection and told them to toss on an oil change just because I knew they didn't net any $ on the repairs. Upon finishing second inspection they decided there was more wrong,,, which was either completely missed in the first inspection or they were being like this because I didn't want to bleed money out of my nose to them. Second inspection did yield an issue that needed addressed, but I would of DONE IT ALL the first time had someone done a proper first inspection. Now I'm bringing it back and fixing more stuff in addition to wasting $ on an oil change I could of done.
I get the rear brakes sorted and bring it back,, im now told there's a leak and the tech couldn't stop it so its not passing again. Take the vehicle home, have someone pump brakes and I see a small dribble come out of the bleeder. I turn the bleed a 1/4 of a turn and the "leak" is stopped..... they failed me again because bleeding your brake lines after replacing the brake pads is apparently equivalent to a large brake line leak 😅🤣🤣.
This was my first time visiting this shop and my car desperately was in need of an oil change in order for me to make it (quite a distance) home. The ladies at the desk and mechanic were so hospitable and kindly squeezed me in. The mechanic was very knowledgeable and upfront with information too. If I lived locally this would be my go to auto shop. Highly recommend!
the employees are super friendly and fair, they make sure any issue gets addressed to the client before fixing anything that pops up unexpectedly. I'm always very pleased with the service provided .
Do not go here I took my 98 Jeep Cherokee here and they put the power steering pump on backwards and leaked onto the transmission mount costing $500+ this place does not know what they are doing
We had an engine noise we knew were rocker arms in a 2011 Dodge Caravan. They got us in quick and out quick. Just waited on parts, not them. Fixed and happy! Better than dealer...fixed the problem instead of replacing entire motor.
Friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. They know what they're doing and will treat you right. My 71 Mustang is in good hands when I take it here. A 5 star business.
They helped me tremendously!!! They got my car in the same day I called, which was a lifesaver. They also were affordable and offer financing assistance! So helpful. I highly recommend to anyone who needs their car fixed!
Mechanic failed to secure my top radiator hose when doing a Fall Cooling System Flush and Service. Antifreeze leaked out all over the engine and transmission the next day and the radiator fan blew it through the grill. Over charged me on their October special when I brought in my own antifreeze, tried to get me to do an oil change saying my oil was low when it was really full, tried to get me to replace brakes and rotors when not needed. The front brakes and rotors were just replaced a week before. They add on charges for “shop materials” and surcharge 3.99% if you use a charge card. Would suggest going someplace else that does the work right and that has good business practices. I also posted this review on their Facebook site in more detail.
Cheapest oil change and State Inspection in the county!! I figure if they can restore an entire vehicle from the frame up, they can handle any of my vehicle maintenance needs easily....
Avoid!!!!!People dont know a real repair/resto shop if they did they would not go here ...owner needs lesson on how to be a small shop and how to treat people customers and employees ...other shops in area are much better ........check pricing on everything people
Very positive experience when we took our '49 Chevy truck in for some work that was above our abilities. We were given plenty of updates during the process and are very happy with the service.
AVOID THESE PEOPLE!!!
Generally dishonest business practices.
I referred a friend and they charged him multiple times to "fix" the same problem with his van which is still not fixed. He will never go back.
After quoting me $80 to tow my trailer and then billing me $180, they billed me for a failed inspection on same trailer when they knew in advance it would fail and that I wanted work done. Their response "how would we know what need to be done unless we inspected it?" and " we won't charge you if you have the work done" I think it's called an estimate!
I guess the $3,000 they bled me for to work on my car wasn't enough.
They have absolutely no interest in maintaining a relationship with customers.
So do yourself a favor and avoid these people. I wish I had.
