1 /5 Sydnie Seckinger: If you need a part replacement or install, this might be your guy. If you need a knowledgeable mechanic to solve a real problem, Id save your money and go elsewhere. We brought in our 2014 Accord last year for a check engine light. We had already replaced the O2 Sensors that were causing the code. He insisted that the catalytic converter needed to be replaced, an $800 part, and the O2 sensors needed to be replaced again, even though they were brand new. We did the work as the shop had good reviews and was recommended. Took the car home and the light came back on the next day. Took the car back, the wife greeted me with a "what did you do to it?" and kept insisting that the car had not been maintained well and that was now the issue. I get it fully serviced and inspected every 5,000 miles, so that was certainly not the case. We left the car there for 3 weeks and he never found the issue with it or was able to fix it. Just kept recommending that we keep replacing this part and that part. Emissions rolls around again, so we tried a new mechanic, specializing in Japanese imports. Turns out it just needed a software update. We paid this business over $1200 and I really do not appreciate any mechanic who will take advantage of paying customers. If you dont know what the issue is, own it and send us down the road instead of wasting everyones time and my money.
EDITED TO REPLY: The check engine light, with the *same code* as before was still on AFTER the “repairs” were made. Which is why it was brought back in the first place. The light has been on since. We picked up our car because you had it for a month and the light was still on. We brought it in to fix the check engine light. It was not fixed. You didn’t charge for a diagnostic because you couldn’t diagnose it. Period. End of story.
