    Excellent customer service. When replacing the steering box on my truck additional items were noticed and reported to me immediately. These were reported to me 3 hours before the shop closed for the weekend. Really showed the respect the mechanics have for their trade, to commit to the repair and complete it in such a narrow time frame. When my truck was ready, I received a phone call and an e mail with a detailed report on the work done and items of concern noted during their pre inspection. Top notch service and very fair prices. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good diesel repair shop.

    Booked my dodge in for a transmission oil change 3 days prior to the appointment date. Dropped my truck off first thing in the morning and received a call during the afternoon that they had not even ordered parts yet. On top of that the desk person upped my original quote of $600 to $900-$1500, over 50% more than the original quote. Called them again later that day and they still didn’t have parts in. At the end of the second day they had finally completed the oil change but I noticed as I was driving my truck down the highway it would shake when accelerating over 100km/per hr. All said and done oil change cost me over $800 and a new shake in my truck. This is not an old truck either, it’s a 2019 dodge ram 1500 and I understood the transmission fluid change would cost a fair amount because they are finicky (hence why I took it to a shop) but this is ridiculous. I checked the wheel weights and all are still on and the transmission itself feels fine so it is a mystery but I can guarantee I did not have that shake before. I would not recommend this shop
