Went in for a Safety inspection and Amar told me I needed 6 things 4 of which were completely not needed. I've been turning wrenches for 3 decades he picked the wrong person to try and ripoff and blatenly lie too.

1 wouldn't recommend. They supposed to do the vehicle inspection but they claims they repaired some areas without my consent. Now some areas having an issues.

Needed a tire repair and turned out I needed new tires to pass inspection. The tires were legitimately damaged so no issue on them selling me new tires. They were friendly enough and able to help right away. I bought four new Kumho tires from them. The tires seemed expensive but the manager assured me that tire prices were sky high. It turns out my trust was entirely misplaced. I grossly overpaid for these tires - to the tune of $100 more than I should have. I would have been fine paying some level of premium for the convenience and service, but this was excessive and uncalled for. Should have known better. Don't make the same mistake.
