Another review posted on Ripoffreport specifies that another gentleman brought his own parts in and he forgot to tighten the Valve cover bolts. Its sounds like this guy purposely savatages cars when you bring your own parts. This way you have to come back, and he’s pist that he doesn’t get to mark up his parts on you, and he knows that he doesn’t have to warranty the work. This guys shop is a joke.
this is my 2nd time bringing another vehicle to Affordable Auto Repair. The staff is very friendly. They went out of their way to make sure that my visit was the best. Even Pats wife offered to drive me home and pick me up to make sure that i was safe and taken care of. thank you for all your hard work. Im looking forward to doing more business with you for all my mechanical needs
The guy is a total rip-off took my car there for service to save money from the ford dealer he ripped me off on parts not needed for over $500. The car did not make it home. ,ended up at Ford dealer to fix it. he is a total crook. When I confronted him he basically said too bad I can't help you. but he keep my money...never again please don't get screwed like me. STAY AWAY FROM HIM
My Girlfriend brought her car to this guy for an overheating issue and the interior heat would not work. He tells here that the water pump needs changing and specifies this as if it will solve the overheating issue and while they are in there he should change the timing belt. . She agrees not knowing anything about cars and here impression is that it will fix the car. We also had a thermostat, so we had him put it in. The damage was over $650. We get the car back and its doing the same exact thing as before. We return the car and his excuse is the Thermostat is defective it will be $100 more to replace the thermostat. I disagree and tell him he should fix the issue being that we just paid him to fix it and its not fixed. He says I can’t warranty a part that you did not purchase from us. Ok, so then right there he tells me that the thermostat was the issue the entire time. He agrees and says that maybe, but the car needed these other parts changed. I say, that maybe, but it does not fix the issue at hand. He agrees again. I verified this by taking the car to Honda, and they diagnosed the issue as a bad head gasket. This was the first thing she suggested to him, but he disagreed. He diagnosed the car incorrectly 2 different times. We had to eat the parts and labor because of his mistake. Horrible person this Pat guy is who is also the owner.
I had several new car inspections done here! I only search for vehicles that are aesthetically pleasing, but I honestly never know how good the “bones” of the vehicle are. I took upwards of 5 vehicles to affordable auto to check out, with almost frustration that every “cute, clean” vehicle was a mess mechanically. I was so happy when I finally found one that was nice on the outside and mechanically and physically sound! Thanks to Pat he gave me leverage to wheel and deal with the dealerships based on what he found wrong with the vehicles. I recommend them hands down to anyone looking for a used vehicle! Get it inspected by Pat first!
Beware of this guy, he is a crook. If you show any signs of knowing nothing about cars he will take advantage of you. This meaning he will add work that doesn’t need to be done. Dateline needs to secret shop this A-hole, he a complete thief.
I know the owner he's a great guy any give me your free t-shirt
