After I purchased a BMW X3 from another dealer (Best Buy Auto Sales in Newark) that turned out to be a lemon and had to go the Lemon Law route, i brought the car to GFS they claimed to be BMW experts and i didn't want to drive to Rochester as i live in Newark. Since April My car has been in their shop more then I have had it the first time it went n for a repair in was in the shop over 6 Weeks fr a repair that should have been a coupe of days then a second time for over 4 weeks! from day one My complaint was their lack of communication. They never quote you up front and are not quick about the repairs the last 3 times my car has been there the check engine light has come back on the same day i picked it up. Every time being another charge and another issue. If the repairs were legit and truly needed to be done why didn't they pick it up before what does the car always have another issue the d=same day i pick it up? I also took my car in for a replacement on a steering sensor and according to their paperwork would take 2.5 hours so they told me it would be 3-4 no problem so i brought my lap top came at 1 pm for my apt and sat their at 5 pm I asked how much longer and they stated it would be another hour or so. I then said i was going to have someone come pick me up and go to dinner and lock the Keys in the car and call me when its done. well after almost 2 more hours i didn't get a call so i went back to find the place was closed and only a mechanic or two was still in the shop and was told my car still wasn't done ( at this point its been almost 6.5 hours on a 2.5 hour job) i told them to have the owner call me. Well an hour later I get a call from Ken and he states he said he'd call when it was done and it wasn't so he didn't call he had no regard for the fact i needed my car. I explained I had a 1030 apt in the morning i couldn't miss. He said he would send someone for me so I could get my car in time. 10am rolls around the next day and No call from GFS so i book and Uber and go over i walk through the door and he states oh i was just going to call you at this point its about 10:45am and I've missed my meeting. I explained that i missed my meeting and had to pay$40 for a Uber never once did they offer to reimburse me. I wait another hour and my car is finally done. I got to get in the car and pull out CHECK ENGINE LIGHT again. this time a $1000 Water pump. I am done and will gladly take my car else where. They have built a beautiful building but what good is it if the people in it don't know what their doing. I unfortunately didn't go check the reviews of this place before but i can see my complaints have been expressed by others and expect the owner to have some explanation of why it isn't his fault as he always does! As of todays date 1/16/19 my car has had over $10,000 in repairs and is still not fixed!

why there are no reviews yet? There should be they are Great guys that are friendly and capable.

I and others assisted Bob initiate this business back in the 80’s. I was in High School at the time. Bob trusted me, I gave him my best dailt

Great service, excellent facility, and a local owner. I don't own a Caddy, but I still have my service work performed by these guys.

Professional and friendly.

Unfortunately, I had to suffer a terrible experience with Jamro. Kevin, the owner, had his mechanic install an exhaust system & replace a clutch. The clutch was never put in correctly. There is about 5 inches between the clutch pedal and floor board. When engaging in gears, the whole dashboard shakes like hell. The exhaust system they installed I can hear a exhaust leaks. When I brought this to his attention before I left but after he got paid, he told me to drive it, see how it feels. any issues, bring it back. I told him as I was leaving, the clutch was not right and needed to be corrected but he insisted I bring it back another time. He just wanted to get paid and has no intention on fixing it ever. After hat terrible experience I went to a reputable shop in Rochester and they examined the clutch and said everything has to come out to see what he did wrong. The estimate was over $600! The exhaust system fix hasn’t even been determined yet. I will NEVER recommend this shop to anyone. It would be best if he just closed down shop before he finds himself in a civil suit.

Ripped me off. Failed to mention a "bring own part" fee of 100 dollars. Beware of snakes in the grass. Friendly chit caught me with my guard down. A real slick willy.

I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO JIMS SERVICE CENTER ON A RECOMENDATION FROM A FRIEND. I HAD BROUGHT MY 2008 GMC TO 3 SHOPS FOR THIS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REPAIR TO NO AVAIL! NO ONE SEEMED TO BE ABLE TO REPAIR MY 2008 GMC INCLUDING THE DEALERSHIP. I ACTUALLY CONTEMPLATED TRADING IT IN ON A NEW TRUCK BECAUSE THE CHEVY DEALER SAID "WE CANT SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM" JIM AND HIS FORCE OF EXPERIENCED TECHS NOT ONLY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM IN LESS THEN ONE HOUR AS IF IT WERE NOTHING AND THEY WERE USE TO SOLVING PROBLEMS OTHERS COULDNT. THE REPAIR WAS SO INEXPENSIVE I WAS SHOCKED THEY WERE HONEST , AND FRIENDLY AND I HAVE SINCE BEEN BACK 2 TIMES WITH OTHER VEHICLES IN MY FAMILY. I WILL NEVER GO ANYWHERE ELSE FOR REPAIRS JIM AND HIS CREW ARE THE BEST !!!!

We brought our sons 2003 Chevy S10 in to find out why it was running so poorly. 2.2 liter straight four. Engine was skipping badly. I just didn't have time to deal with it. I am not a professional mechanic but have been working on cars since I was a kid and I'm almost 50 now. (my dad restored cars when I was growing up) The diagnoses was a blown head gasket and would cost 987.00 to replace. Ok, truck hasn't been overheated and coolant level isn't going down at all. Guess its time to check it out myself. My son and I removed the plugs, looks like valve seals are leaking a little oil but no sign of coolant. We checked the wires, # 2 wire had a short. We installed new plugs and wires truck ran perfect and check engine light went out. It's been 3 weeks since we installed new plugs and wires, no sign of plug fouling. Simple repair. Not sure if the mechanic is just inexperienced or just needs more work but beware!

FANTASTIC SERVICE!!!!! DROPPED OFF MY VEHICLE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AND IRONICALLY CERTAIN THINGS STARTED "coming unhooked" After what seemed like a DISHONEST PLACE, I brought to a dealer and thankfully they said the repairs I needed to have were not necessary its just that it looked like the part was FULL FUNCTION, but was taken a part....... like my hood cable to get to the engine. I would say please be careful, and beware this person. I talked to the owner BOB BLACK, but he was the one who looked at my vehicle so I would be extremely cautious at using this place. There is plenty of other mechanics in the area. NOT only does this look bad in general.. but AAA looks bad too. I think that no one should go to LEFEBRE"S AUTO SERVICE IN GREECE.
