Nice guys and they mean well. If you are interested in a top notch professional shop keep looking. This is an old school garage and mechanic that struggles to get the repair completely done the first time you bring your vehicle in. Fully expect not to have your vehicle ready when promised and to get it back dirty inside and out. They will make the repair work eventually but expect to waste a lot of your time in the process.

After being told by a local dealership that my car needed hundreds of dollars of work to include brakes and all fluids , I took my car to Gunder's and was enlightened to the fact that I did not need any of that at all. I appreciate their honesty and integrity and have recommended them to friends that have also had great results. Thankful for an honest place to have my car taken care of on every level.

Great comm

Went there to get my breaks fixed and it was fast service. Good quality work and not very expensive. This shop is much recommended.

Only place I will take my BMW for repair. Ladies, this is the one place where being a female doesn't feel like they will take advantage of you. Fair, honest, fast, efficient team and also do a great job detailing your car. Always excellent customer service! -Suzanne

9/9/17. My daughter trying to decide to leave Tampa got some bad gas and is broke down. I called from Pensacola Fl. and Pernell answered and said he would go see what he can do. I pray for him and my daughter. Time is running out. I wait to hear from him. I pray he can get her car running.

My daughter's truck broke down while at USF and Robert from RJL repaired it quickly for very reasonable cost. I live a few hours from Tampa, so I called him after finding his shop on this website. He even offered to tow her truck if it couldn't make it to the shop. He was honest and only repaired what was broke and did not try to con her into anything more. Thanks Robert, I'll refer all the USF parents I know to your shop from now on.

the guys are very friendly, good job and fast service best price i found in town.. :)

Did an excellent paint job and checked other parts of the car. This is a Father and son business with over 30 years of ASE certified experience. I've seen cars come in there from Dealers and other Repair Shops when they cannot figure out the problem and John finds it and fixes it in record time. Ramona & Lawrence Bendik Lutz, FL

Jerry has been my mechanic for the past 3 years, after Reeves told me that I was going to need a new fuel pump.... at a cost of $900.00! Jerry diagnosed the problem in a 5 minute drive and went under my car and fastened something that was loose... and I still haven't replaced my fuel pump. He is very fair and honest. Great mechanic

I had just bought my car and the transmission was messed up so the dealer said he would bring it to the guy he know's. (Gomez 5) They have had my car for a week and 5 days just to put in the transmission. I called yesterday to see if I could go pick it up and they told me they just had a couple bolts to fix because they stripped them, I went there today and all 4 tires are off of my car and its sitting on the lift. Then they tell me I can take my car how it is if I would like. This process should only take 2-3 days. I would NEVER recommend anybody to go to this repair shop. They will give you the run around over and over. Find someone who appreciates helping others, and not just in it for the money!

First of all whatever you do, do not buy a car from this place. It will be the worst mistake of your life. The owner is extremely rude and I'm pretty positive that there are people he hires that work on cars whom are not professional. I bought a car from this place in November of 2013 and this man sold me a car with frame damage. After about 6 months the car began to act up. It needs a new transmission and a caliber. The cars worth which is $4000 is how much it costs to fix the car. I regret ever making business with this establishment. Do not let this man get a penny from you. I tried to rate this place 0 stars, however the website did not allow for me to do that. So I had to put one start but don't be fooled he deserves negative stars.

Company refuses to honor it's warranty. Their mechanic improperly installed a transmission and they charged to fix his errors. I recently brought in a friend's Nissan Altima to have the transmission replaced and had it charged to my AAMCO Credit Card account. After picking the picking up the auto, the starter made a grinding noise when attempting to start the vehicle. Believing this to be a separate problem I took it to my regular mechanic. He stated that the problem was the screw in the transmission mounting was improperly installed and was causing damage to the starter. We had the car towed to their shop. The manager "Charlie" informed us that since another mechanic looked at the vehicle they would not honor the warranty. This is unacceptable because without having a third party inspect the vehicle how would they be found at fault. It is all around bad business to allow your employees to perform substandard work, and even worse practice not to fix the problem when it does occur.I currently have an open complaint with the better business bureau about the matter.

I had been going to Richard's Auto for over two years to get oil changes on my household's two vehicles - never had a problem till now. Richard's was to work on my 99 Camry's throttle and while checking and cleaning it the air in-take hose was broken. Not only did Richard's not inform me of the damage - when I discovered the problem and took it back they refused to take ownership of the problem and would not help me by correcting the broken part. Congrats Richard's you lost a customer for life over a mistake and a $30 part that your guys broke. Good job - keep it up, I'm sure in this economy running off customers is a good business model. *** If I could give zero stars I would! ***
