EDITED 3/4/26: I'm very much a real person and you know it. Remember the red Chevy Cruze? I paid you cash and then my ex husband paid you on venmo, you said you would refund my cash payment on venmo when his went through. You're just a liar. Any legitimate person reading my review can contact me!!! I brought my vehicle to Mike's last month for repairs, trusting they would handle it properly. I was charged twice for the same work, which Mike (the person I dealt with) acknowledged. He promised a refund via Venmo and assured me it would be processed quickly. That refund never arrived. Multiple calls, messages and attempts to follow up went completely unanswered-no response, no callback, nothing. Worse, barely a month later, the car has started stalling in traffic. The "repair" clearly wasn't done right and now I'm left with a dangerous vehicle and no resolution. This feels like a straight-up scam: double charged, ignore promises, provide shoddy work that fails almost immediately, and then ghost the customer. I wouldn't trust them with any vehicle again. Go somewhere else that stands behind their work and actually communicates. If you're the owner/manager reading this: Please honor the promised refund and address the failed repair properly.

Mike, the only one playing games is you. You told my mom (MDH her review below who you say isn't a real customer) you would refund her payment after my dad paid you. Then when his payment went through you stopped returning calls/texts. And this all wouldn't be the worst, if the car ran, now we are out $3000 total with a car that doesn't run. That extra $1500 you pocketed was my retired mom's monthly SSA payment.
