Auto repair service near Euclid, OH

They promised a free evaluation via a video on the Google page presented by the president of the company! They lied!! They charged me $200 to look at two simple concerns with the promise that IF they found the problem they would put the evaluation fee towards the repair. Another lie! Typical bait and switch move. Promise from three different employees. Well guess what? They couldn’t find anything wrong. So now I still have the issues with $200 less taken by this garage. I emailed them twice showing them the video clearly stating that the evaluation was promised as a complimentary inspection. They ghosted me and refuse to refund my money and refused to honor the video!! I wonder if they’ll take it down after this is submitted. I want a refund and I want the promise in the video by the president to be honored!!

By far the best experience I have ever had with an auto repair shop! Tom Hall

Powertrain Automotive was established June 11, 2007. This family owned and operated repair facility is located at 28910 Euclid Avenue in Wickliffe, Ohio. After twenty three years in the same location, retiring owner Steve Combaj sold his repair facility known as Universal Mechanic to lead technician David Kozlowski. It was then that the name was changed and Powertrain Automotive was born. David is an ASE Certified Technician with over twenty years experience in the mechanical repair field. It took years of planning and a lot of hard work to make this automotive repair facility a reality. Better yet there is a lot more to come! Our biggest goals are turning out a quality repair job as well as customer satisfaction.

The trouble shooting and eventual isolation of the problem was excellent. Now I know where to go to receive resolution of a part that's still under warranty at another facility.

I ordered a Scag PTO clutch from them on 8/9/2016. Part was delivered, but in the time it took to come in I realized this wasn't the part I needed after all. As soon as it came in I looked on their website for details on how to return the part. It specified I would need to pay the return shipping (completely understandable) and a re-stocking fee of 20% (a bit excessive) on the $286.17 part ( $57.23). I was a bit bummed to learn it would cost me about $80 just to return a part I didn't need, but it was my mistake by ordering the wrong part and at least I would get back the other $200. However, when I called to get a RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) in order to return the part they told me they won't take back anything electrical. I informed them that I never installed the part, I actually didn't even open the box at all, it sits exactly like it did when it left their store. They didn't care. So they would of made $57 off my mistake and only had to open the box and put the part back on the shelf (which they had in stock to begin with). I would have gladly waited for them to inspect the item to ensure it had not been opened, installed, or tampered with in any way before expecting a refund, but instead now I have a $286.17 paper weight. I buy a lot of parts for my business, but I will never buy from them again. Not only are their re-stocking fees excessive, but they won't even take back a box that hasn't even been opened. Poor business practice in my opinion. Never again, I will buy elsewhere.

As I'm sure most people have taken their vehicles to a shop to have a repair performed only to find it wasn't fixed properly, or was charged too much etc. And then the next time you have a problem you take it to another repair shop and so on. It was wonderful to have Mike and Suburban Car & Truck referred to me. We have been using Suburban for 7 years now, sending our 5 family cars and our 4 business "fleet" vehicles. How great is it to be able to comfortably be able to send my wife, son and daughters directly to Suburban and know that they will be treated respectfully, honestly and fairly. Or to have my business vehicles repaired quickly and fairly to get them back on the road where they need to be. If you value your family and company being treated better, we recommend you take your vehicles to Suburban Car & Truck. They are definitely different than the rest.
