18th Avenue Auto Center

My sprinter truck had exhaust and turbo problems. Everything was taken care of the same day. I’m very happy with the service

liars, thieves, con artists.. do NOT bring your car here! the A of A & L, Alex is a liar and a lunatic. I brought my car to them because of an exhaust leak (small hole in the muffler that I asked him to weld) he said no problem but it may not work and it would be $150 of they successfully welded it, $250 to replace the muffler (if need be) and if I wanted the entire exhaust line minus the catalytic converter for $450. I told them I wouldn’t mind paying $450 to do the entire exhaust line And agreed to it. they called me and said the car was ready so I came in and went to go speak with the L of A & L Auto, Lenny. Lenny goes ok $450, so I went to look at the car and they only changed the muffler. I told him only muffler was supposed to be $250 and he automatically got aggressive. I asked him to call the guy I made the deal with and he started yelling at me through the phone calling me a liar. I told him they can have their new muffler and to give me mine with the hole back and he said they already got rid of it. They basically held my keys and wouldn’t give me my car back until I gave them the $450 which came out to $508 after tax and “processing“ fee. horrible experience at a terrible auto repair shop.

They are such theives.i went there for a car inspection....i had light tinted windows....he said pass or fail 37 dollars cash....after he looked at the car...did all tests and could not find anything wrong....gave me the print out and said fail for tinted windows...why didnt he say that before the inspection..why did he make me go threw all the testing and inspection if he was going to fail me for the easily visible lightly tinted windows......he should be shut down for fooling cutomers...he should be reported to the better buissness burea.I WILL NOT EVEN GET GAS THERE ANYMORE...PEOPLE LIKE THIS PUT WATER IN THE FUEL TANKS.THE ARE LOOKING TO SCREW HONEST AVERAGE PEOPLE OUT OF HARD WORKED MONEY

They give you one price for repair, and after taking car apart , giving you much higher price. I was told by them that to replace rear wheel barring it takes to remove rear axel, thats why the price is so High…. No one ever removed the axel, i was watching.. but i been charged full amount. On the next visit I asked them to replace front ball joints, they kept the car there for 2 days…. Charged me $540!!!!!! and put two different ball joints with rusted nut on one of them !!!!!! Different manufacturers, size and color (not even sure if they are new). When i asked why are they different, the answer was… thats what the store shipped. Do not recommend this place at all. Never again!!!

I don’t recommend this place, this people are thief’s. Try to take my money with out finishing the inspection and told me that my car wasn’t going to pass because of my wipers, when they wore perfectly fine! Then try to mess with my air bags so it wouldn’t pass inspection good thing I saw them. And told them I didn’t want to make inspection then they took my car keys and didn’t want to give theme back! Please don’t ever go to this place they just want your money.
