Engine repair service near Franklin Square, NY

Purchased a vehicle, or I should say LEMON from Sunrise Used Cars in Lindenhurst last month, and was informed by the owner Joe at Sunrise, that he sold the car for Elite Motorsports. I have had problems with this vehicle within 2 days after picking it up. I called Joe at Sunrise and requested a refund, he refused and stated he sold the car for Elite Motorsports and to take it up with them. Can you believe the audacity? I paid Sunrise Used Cars and he is passing responsibility onto Elite Motorsports and then they denied Joe's claim. I found Elite Motorsports to be dishonest when I insisted something was terribly wrong with my vehicle, they told me to bring it to their location, and was promised a full diagnostic. I requested the diagnostic report, but they refused it, I asked for their Technician notes, and while Frank, their service manager was looking for them on his computer, he conveniently tells me he accidentally deleted them. I'm told the car was brought there for the inspection, yet how does a vehicle with extremely bad brakes, and other issues pass inspection? My vehicle goes back a second time, and this time I give them a diagnostic report from Audi and Elite Motorsports stated their diagnostic was inaccurate, Audi are thieves and they do not know what they're doing. Diagnostic Reports are inaccurate? REALLY? My vehicle has now been sitting for two days because it has a bad leak. Kai from Elite Motorsports promised me he would pick up my car, but the day my car was suppose to be picked up he calls and states, his truck is down. TRUCK IS DOWN? You fix cars, why is your truck down for two days now? Just more lies. Then he has the audacity to tell me to pay for a tow to his shop. My car vibrates terribly, car is leaking oil (I believe transmission oil) that ruined my driveway. AC doesn't work, and I could go on and on. PLEASE HEED MY WARNING AND STAY FAR AWAY FROM SUNRISE USED CARS AND ELITE MOTORSPORTS. They are dishonest, and they are liars! The ONLY thing that brings me comfort is... G*d above sees everything, and people like this will eventually get what is coming to them. YOU SHOULD ALL BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES!

My experience with Mariela was a nightmare. After what has happened, I cannot in good conscience not say anything. I called the Woodside location and asked about finding the source of a smell in my car. I asked if they had same day availability and they said that they did. It took over two days for them to get to my car, with my calling every day. I was never called back when I was told I would be. On the third day they finally looked at my car and gave me a laundry list of repairs that needed to be done on top of replacing the carpet. The office manager tried every trick in the book, including telling me “you know us girls we don’t always take care of our cars”, to try to get me to get the extra repairs done. She did not ask before if they could do a full diagnostic. If they had I would have said yes. I agreed to have an oil change, paid their diagnostic fee, and agreed to have the carpet replaced. They placed an order on the carpet and I paid up front. We agreed on a time for me to come pick up my car - 5 hours later - but they had not yet completed my oil change. She told me to come back after an hour. When I returned it still was not ready for me. She then took me into the back of the shop to show me holes in the bottom of my car underneath the carpet. Why would they tell me the carpet needed to be replaced and not have looked underneath the carpet? Why was this not included in the previous list of work done? And how can they say that they completed a full diagnostic and then find this additional thing? I asked for an itemized estimate of the rest of repairs they said that I needed. She was very resistant and finally gave me a hand-written list, without itemized prices, just a lump sum at the end. And then it took another half-hour for them to pull the car out and only because I asked her to check. I was supposed to come back 5 days - or 3 business days - later. In the meantime, I took the car to another mechanic for a second opinion. They confirmed a couple of repairs needed but said that the brakes - a very costly repair - did not need any work done. The day before I was supposed to come back, I called to confirm my appointment. The office manager said she did not know the status of the carpet shipment. Again, I was not called back when I was told to expect a call. I was told that the carpet shipment was delayed and it could be up to another 5 days for it to come in. She told me that I should stop calling, that she said that she was going to call me when she had an update, and that I was wasting her time calling to check in. After a long conversation on the phone I went to the office to continue the conversation. After another long conversation she finally said that I should talk to her manager, who was at the Westbury location. She reluctantly gave me his information, saying that I could look it up and then writing down the phone number on a piece of paper. How was I supposed to know not to bring in my car the following day if I had not called to confirm my appointment? Was I supposed to show up only to be turned away? I drove out the following morning to speak to the manager. He was, to his credit, very professional. He offered a refund on the labor, since after all of this I was not going to have the work done at either of their shops. He said he would give me the carpet at cost for me to take to another shop. He their policy of not returning parts, stating that they cannot get it refunded from the distributor. The Auto Custom Carpet website states that they accept returns so long as the customer pays return shipping and a 20% restock fee. In our final conversation of many, he offered me shop credit for the cost of the carpet. After all that has happened, can you blame me for not taking my car back to their shop? I know that they will write their own side of the story in response. I know they have plenty of regular clients. Do them the kindness of listening to us both and making your own decision. But after what happened, I personally cannot recommend them.

The service was great, Jimmy was a pleasure to talk to over the phone and even nicer in person. He fully explained what was going on with my car and exactly what they did. The price for all the work that was done on our car was very reasonable. I didn’t feel ripped off like I have in the past at other mechanics. I am very thankful for how quick they were able to have it done considering a few set backs they were having that day in general. I would fully recommend them to friends and family. Dorian Delany
