A shop you can trust! Jeep wrangler 3.6l After spending several weeks dealing with the dealership (auto nation) for a diagnosis for a misfire they found worn lobes on my camshaft and recommend new camshafts rockers and lifters i approved them to complete the work Upon completion of the job several thousand dollars spent, I picked up my jeep .. drove back and forth from work and had a check engine light on I pulled the code and a found the o2 sensor had stopped working.. after a visual I noticed fresh motor oil leaking down the backside of the engine onto my exhaust/cat/02 sensor.. I called auto nation back and let them k ow I had a leak and believed the valve cover was leaking.. they set an appointment and had me bring it back They advised me the jeep wasnt leaking oil that it must be an old leak that is no longer active.. they charged me another diagnostic fee.. I advised the service rep I was going to take it to another shop to verify as I didnt trust what was being said as you can clearly see fresh oil dripping..photos reviled the dealership just put new rtv sealant on top of the old stuff and didnt even remove it, they didnt clean the mating surfaces when putting the valve covers back on, they didnt replace the gasket that they charged me for, they crushed the pcv valve gasket and they completely left a bolt off the intake ..you will see in photos the shabby job the dealer did putting back together, and I included a photo from dads of what it should have looked all cleaned up.. Thats where DADS came to save my day. Destin was able to get my jeep in right away and quickly get to the repair.. he took photos of the tear down along the way to show me the condition the dealer left my jeep valve cover gaskets are a 6-8hr job on the jeep and he quickly got it back up running very reasonable prices and wont charge you for unnecessary parts keeps you well informed throughout the repair Destin thank you so much for getting me in and taken care of so quickly with quality work.. Photos attached show shabby work from dealer, what a new gasket should look like, and what a clean mating surface looks like
