D & S Automotive Repair

I go to take my 2009 Honda Accord to D & S Automotive Repair for an oil change, have them look at my brakes, and investigate my car clicking 4 or 5 times before it starts instead of 3 times. I drop off my car and borrow someone elses car while my car sits there. The reviews looked great, but I take my car here and my visit was not as I expected. I knew I might have to wait for a day or two before they could even diagnose my car, and was expecting it to be worth the wait and get cheap prices for quality parts, based on looking at other reviews on this place. It turns out that it is not worth the wait. Their diagnosis was that I had bad front brake pads, bad front rotors, bad front calipers, and bad front brake hoses. They also said that my car needed new fluids. This is the exact same stuff that the dealer told me back in February, except it was the rear brake pads, rotors, and calipers! I got the rear brake stuff done for $1,000 at the dealer! The dealer told me that the front brake pads and rotors were in need, but not the calipers, and I declined because it wouldve been another $500 just to fix those. At D & S, the front ones cost $919, not much cheaper than the rear ones at the dealer. What a ripoff! I found someone who could fix this for less than $500 if this is what the problem is with my front brakes. D & S said that my transmission would blow up if I continue to drive my car! Also, I got no diagnosis on the car clicking 4 or 5 times before starting. Buyers, beware! I do not trust D & S Automotive Repair and will never be going back again! Edit: I will also mention the fact that I was charged $107 just to pick up my car even though they didnt do anything on my car. This place could be breaking the law. I saw no sign saying that you would have to pay to pick up your car anywhere. That is what state law says. I saw no sign saying that I had to pay $107 to pick my car anywhere in the building that I know of. To the claim that I never called in advance and dropped my car off out of nowhere is only partially true. I called a week in advance and asked if I could drop off my car Monday or Tuesday of the following week without a clear time. They said that I could bring it in. They always talk down to people who write bad reviews. It is not proper etiquette and unprofessional. This type of conduct makes me want to downgrade my review to zero stars if I could, but one star is as low as it will go. I got my car fixed by a mobile mechanic. The person that fixed my car said that the only problem with my car was that the transmission fluid was low. He put in more transmission fluid and my car runs like it should. It was only $120 for the transmission fluid and an oil change.

DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! I paid $2000 to get my car fixed just for it to mess up a week later and had to pay them again to fix it! A week after paying the 2nd time, it broke down again!

After years of getting jerked around and swindled at other repair shops, I came across these guys by word of mouth. These guys are the real deal. I couldn`t be any happier with the service, quality of work and communication from the shop. Scott diagnosed what the other shops could not and gave me a detailed rundown on what needed to be done. It is hard to find a mechanic you can trust nowadays, and D&S has earned my complete trust and confidence in their work. Services: Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic
