    These guys are great. 7:30 at night and I was disturbing the peace one decibel at a time and out of I have no mids or highs, My amp went up and smoke all I had was Bass I roll up the hill I see that they're open getting ready to close all I had was $200 and I needed a quality 1000 watt amp that would push my mids and highs, Did you check your store high and low but it look like I was out of luck, As I was getting ready to pull away their doors already closed the guy comes running out and says wait wait I found one, $200 and a handshake later I was back in business. I would definitely recommend them to anybody looking for a car audio and the many other services they provide.

    I took my Dodge Durango to Car Audio City just to replace the headlights, I only wanted the same original lights I already had. Instead, without my authorization, they installed LED lights. I thought, “ok, whatever, as long as they work.” Big mistake. Shortly after, my car started having serious electrical issues. When another mechanic inspected it, I was told what Car Audio City did was a complete mess: they cut the original factory wires, taped cheap connectors in a sloppy way, and forced LED lights that I never asked for. The result? My car, a one-owner vehicle with all original parts , ended up with major damage to the battery, connectors, and the electrical system. Now the repair bill is over $5,000. This is not just bad service , it’s a scam. They took advantage of me, did unprofessional work, and ruined my car. Please, do not go to Car Audio City. They are careless, dishonest, and destroyed my vehicle. I am pursuing legal action because what they did is completely unacceptable. Like another review I read, they are criminals. For a couple of dollars, they will destroy your car.
