Hi-Tech Automotive

http://hitechautomotivemo.com/\r \r Beware of this Guy/Shop (Tim and Tony)\r Bad Customer experience\r \r On 2/4, I called this garage and talked to Tony. I wanted to get my Honda Odyssey Transmission replaced. Transmission was broken and dealership was charging a little high. I called this place, on referral of someone who said they know him thru the church. Tony gave me following estimate: less than $1000.00 for repairs and between $2000 to $3000 for replacement with REMAN Transmission, with 2 years warranty, and extra charges for towing. So I asked my insurance to do the towing for me. He also told me that “most of the time they can fix the problem by repair”. As it turned out, it was total lie. I guaranty these guys have no experience in fixing any broken Transmissions, and they say this line to everyone. He didn’t even open the transmission and most probably read out the dealership report to me, as diagnostic report. After the “immovable” VAN was towed to this place, the guy started saying Transmission is not repairable, and replacement will cost $3300.00 and no mention of any warranty.\r \r I did not like this, but even asked if he can keep it inside 2-3k which he said earlier. He flatly refused.\r \r When I decided to get my car to another shop, Tim the owner started demanding $85.00 checking fee. This fee was never mentioned to me by Tony during initial conversation. . Tim even started lying that estimate given was between2000 and 3500. Later he also agreed to fix it for $3000.00 but I refused, I do not want to give business to dishonest people.\r \r These people want to trap the customer and to do that they “make it sound” as if they will do the job for too less in the beginning.\r \r I wish Tim losses all his customers for giving me such bad experience. more

My whole family has been taking their vehicles to HI-TECH Automotive for about the past 5 years. The owner, Tim, and his friendly and helpful staff has never let us down. We know we can trust them to take care of our vehicles and fix them within a reasonable amount of time. They have always been honest and thorough with our repairs. I would recommend to anyone and everyone! more

I used to love Hi-Tech Automotive until recently. They seemed honest, cheap, and trustworthy. At the end of 2011 that all changed though. I took my car to them because I was experiencing quite a few problems. They diagnosed it, told me what was wrong, and said it would be around $500 to fix. I had them do the work and I picked my car back up later that night. The very next morning, the check engine light came back on and I was experiencing the same problems as before. I took it back into them and they told me it was a different problem (yet with the same part of the car they just replaced). I had them do the work and it cost me another $425. The morning after I picked my car back up from them, the check engine light came back on. I called them and told them, but I couldn't afford to bring it back to them right away since I had just given them close to $1000 in the last two weeks. The problems got worse and worse, and when I called them about it a week later, they told me it needed to be towed to them because they didn't feel it was safe to drive. I told them I got free towing with my car insurance and they assured me that they would get it for me. They charged me for the tow even though I told them I could get it done for free myself. This time they told me my car had a whole new slew of problems, but I chose not to have them do the work. I took it to a new mechanic, and this is the report I got: Customer had the intake caskets done somewhere else. They were not done right. Coil connectors were broken, injector connectors were broken, no gasket on EGR valve, intake gasket surface not cleaned, parts of old gasket were still there. One bolt on coil missing, 1 bolt on throttle bracket missing, air box not bolted on, and vacuum hose not connected. I will never take any of my cars to Hi-Tech Automotive, and I will tell everyone I know to never take their vehicles there. more
