New Radiator, Hub bearings, 02 Sensor
Took my car in on Saturday morning and because they close early, was told I could leave it there and pick it up on Monday after the work was done. When I picked it up on Monday, I noticed when I got home that half the gas tank was empty and there were 90 additional miles on the odometer! I found a receipt for BrandsMart in Deerfield Beach (25 miles away) on the car seat and a football in the trunk! When I called Mike, the owner, he admitted to knowing what happened and said the manager (Beau) used an error in judgment and that he was really a "good guy" and a "good manager". Mike offered me an oil change for another vehicle or a gift card to a restaurant. Beware people!

I took our older car here for a list of repairs including check and fix niosy rear brakes and a brake pulsation and some leaks under the car. I got a call from Al a few hours after dropping the car off. He went down the list of repairs with prices for each repair. The oil leak was the engine oil pan and transmission oil pan leaking. When we got to the brake squeal and pulsation, Al told me it needed front brakes and machine the front brake rotors. I asked him 3 times if there was a problem with the rear brakes. He assured me that the rear brakes were fine, and finally say they would do a clean and adjust on the rear brakes. A service that most reputable repair shops include for free with a front brake job, but that they charged me for. The total bill came to just under $1700. I told him to go ahead and do it. When I got the car back and drove it, I couldn't believe it still had a brake pulsation. Still had the banshee squeal from the brakes. AND it also had 2 noises in the drive train under the hood. I called Al and took it back as soon as I could. They kept it for the day. They picked me up in my own car when it was done...the rear brake squeal was still there. When we got to the shop Al told me he had fixed a bushing in the front at no charge (and without authorization). I asked about the brakes and he said that they didn't find anything wrong. Bottom line...they had the car for a total of 3 days to do very basic repairs. The brakes still squeal and pulsate. There are 2 noises in the drive train now. And the steering wheel is crooked. I don't trust the car with my family anymore due to their incompetence. Don't take your car here, the only tool these guys are good with is an adding machine. UPDATE: The brakes noise and pulsation were repaired by a local shop by simply servicing the rear brakes! UPDATE2: One of the drive train noises was from when they serviced the transmission they left it 4 pints low on fluid. So not only
