Had my vehicle for 6 MONTHS, then as I'm driving it home it almost breaks down. The guy said it "wasn't his problem". Not professional, not friendly, and definitely doesn't care about you or your vehicle. Save your time and money and bring your vehicle ANYWHERE but here.

My best friend had her car in this shop. took them almost a month to replace the entire back end. Both days I went there with her, everybody was sitting around doing nothing. The point of going there and getting everything done was for it to pass inspection and to fix the underlying issues, which were many evidently.. there was a clog in the EVAP line. The dude claimed he needed to drive it in order to get the engine light to clear. At this point the car has been there for a month y. 3 days ago I went to see how everything was going with it with her, they claimed it needed to be driven and that "he would see if he could get to it" the following day. They took way too long already so I offered to drive up from Binghamton and buy the seafoam they claimed I needed to put in it as well as drive it. 15 minutes after leaving the shop I'm across from Rodeway Inn and Suites right outside of Ithaca, and the steering wheel would turn but the wheels would not. When I called them to tell them what had happened, they said it was "not their responsibility any more because I left with the vehicle" (which they were supposed to do but apparently didn't have the time to do even though every time I

Do NOT ever go to this shop! We made the mistake of hiring them to do an engine swap because my wife is friends with their head mechanic. Not only did he have my Jeep for 2 months when he said it would be a week at most. He repeatedly lied to us while missing deadline after deadline. He told us he had finally gotten it fixed and was just working on the codes so it could pass inspection. We told him to fail it and get us a 10 day so we could finally have our 2nd vehicle and make our children’s doctors appointments. When we showed up that night to pick it up he didn’t have a bill of sale for the engine he allegedly bought and installed. Not only that but the car didn’t even start! 2 months and it didn’t start! Obviously we had had enough and had it TOWED to another mechanic who immediately was able to tell that all the engine mounts had never been touched! These pieces of garbage not only didn’t fix the engine they never even pulled out the old one! The head mechanic DJ is a habitual cocaine user and more than likely took my money to get his fix and has been lying to us this whole time. These people are the worst form of human waste! Do not risk your money or waste your time. I can a

Worst mechanic I've ever hired. It took them nearly four weeks to replace a transmission. I caught him lying to me several times throughout our many conversations on the phone and in person (usually when asked for an explanation). When I finally received the vehicle back, the work was so poorly done, I had to bring it to the dealership to be fixed. He still hasn't given me the documentation for my warranty he promised over a month ago, and at this point, I doubt it exists. Stay clear of this guy! He may seem pleasant at first but see how much you like him by about week #3. Update: He was unable to provide any documentation of a remanufactured part. I suspect he installed a scrapyard transmission, sold my original for core value, and charged me the price of a warrantied, remanufactured part. This guy is as crooked as they come. Even if you know your way around vehicle maintenance, stay away from this place.
