They did a great job on my car. I needed new struts and he got me in next day. Charged me a lot less than I thought it was going to cost and the car drives fantastic now. I will go here for all my mechanic needs.
Excellent!!!!! Bob did a great job on my car. I definitely would recommend him and his shop to my friends and to anyone who is looking for a good and honest mechanic.👍👍👍
Good honest mechanic. What more do you want?
Always friendly, Great prices! Knowledgeable mechanics!
This is what a mechanic shop should be! They are very friendly and did a fantastic job replacing my motor mounts.
Already have issues finding a mechanic because my car is to low to get under, only mechanic that has been smart enough to tell me i have 2x4s knows a thing or two and deff a passion for what they do. But they were able to take me in right away. Other places i find myself rescheduling 3xs, was able to repair it that same day as promised and in time for me to make it to work. Other places wanted a whole over night. And the prices are reasonable, had some due diligence, and other places wanted to charge double close to trip. the fee, not a Semi my guy, stang kay? But 5 of 5.
Fast honest and friendly !!Overall great service and highly recommended !!
This review should have been posted months ago, I came to this establishment after finding a car posted on Facebook for sale. Before showing up to look at the car I asked for some details including the vin of the car. I did a Carfax and for what they were selling the car for I was still an interested buyer, so I met the owner of Absolute Auto and his wife afterhours to test drive the car. While my daughter and the owner of Absolute were on a test drive with the car I was talking to the owners wife about the car and she mentioned the car had been in the family for years and they just no longer needed it and that the car had never been in any accidents, yet as mentioned previously I had done a Carfax on the car which showed two accidents and four total owners which they were not one of them as they had an open title from the previous owner not in their family. When they returned from the test drive I brought up the fact his wife just told me that there were no accidents yet I had brought the Carfax with me, instead of answering my questions he proceeded to berate and talk down to his wife and called her some horrible names in front of my daughter and I, at this point we just left. Just to add to this businesses creditability Id also like to mention as of the posting of this review the owner of this business (Bob Gonzales) has left his own business a five star review about two years ago.
The owner of this business is an angry, bipolar mess. Do not subject yourself to this lunacy.
Very nice family run place
So i went to get installed a interlock device in my car cuz of my husbands dui i had a email saying 85 dollars as soon as i left they wouldnt let me pay til after install which i though was weird but whatever. Hour later call to check and give a different number to reach me at the told me my car was too dirty i have a 2003 solars just bought within the year and i had to pay cuz of the roach bodys on the floor there wasnt any i literally just got out and i would of saw them then proceeded to tell me i was getting charged for wires and when i told him i didmt have enough cuz most places have a payment plan for automotive work could i pay the other 40 when i get paid in 7 days cuz i had no clue id have to pay for wires with covid going on you ahould know people are lucky to be working you should have a payment plan set up in case. The wife or secretary was super nice. But the guy rudest around point blank period
Very pleased with staff and service here. Went in for alternator replacement and was very pleased. Didn’t take as long as I suspected it would. Left with a nice shiny new alternator. Reasonable pricing and great customer service. Keep up the great work.
I would skip this auto repair shop if you have a choice.
Do not take your car here. Dangerous mechanic that has no clue.1. Took a used car here to get a thorough inspection. I thought it was a bit odd that it only took 40 minutes to come back with a thumbs up & only two minor issues.Which I had scheduled for repair after purchase. On the assumption that this guy knew what he was doing, I purchased the car.2. Beyond him missing simple things like non-working headlight, bad odometer, he missed a SEVERE SAFTEY ISSUE. After doing the minor repair that was scheduled, he suggested I take the care to his guys down the road to get new tires. His guys took one bolt off of the wheel he just looked at and told me the threads were stripped. Meaning, the tire could come off at any moment. This was due to prior front end damage that he missed.3. Immediately (within 30 minutes) took the car back to this guy & he says that either it was the other guys fault or I did something to the car in the 30 minutes I was gone. None of which was true. He was the last person to touch the wheel & stripped the threads by not hand turning the bolt a few times before putting lugs on. He proceeded to throw things around the shop swearing & yelling. I took iPhone video of him.4. The next day, I get a call to say my car is ready. He had replaced the bolts but I had to pay for parts. Not the greatest thing to do but I wanted this nightmare over.5. Within 48 hours of getting my car back, I am driving down the road while I hear a couple of pops on that wheel. MY WHEEL CAME OFF MY VEHICLE! This joker did not even do the job right & my wheel came off. Luckily, I was in a residential 30 MPH area & no one was hurt. I called him back & he again accuses me of doing something to the car.6. I took the car to another mechanic. They immediately noticed the car had frame damage and I paid 1k to get this car fixed.Bottom Line: This guy has no clue. Im sure he can do $20 oil changes til the cows come home but do not trust what he says. His laziness cost me thousands of dollars and could have gotten me killed.
This place was amazing! The owner was beyond kind, helpful, thorough, and proficient. My girlfriends radiator cracked in her Toyota Solara while we were traveling over Labor Day weekend. I had called a couple of mechanics and as I figured, everyone was closed. When I placed the call to Absolute Auto, I was surprised when someone answered. I explained our situation and the owner asked us to bring our car to him and hed provide us an inspection. He showed us where the crack was and explained how it happened. He then mentioned that given the unfortunate timing of our breakdown, it might be difficult to locate a radiator. However, he ensured us he would give it his best to find what we needed. His persistence payed off! He located, picked up, and replaced the radiator within three hours. After the work was completed and the tests on the new radiator were done, my girlfriends car was road ready again. Before we parted ways, we discovered that it was lucky timing when I called the garage. The owner was only up there to collect some paperwork. HE WASNT EVEN OPEN! He took us in and fixed our car out of pure kindness. Accommodation at its finest.
Great company
Great Place. A-1 Service. I have sent many people to Bob. All very happy.
Great Staff and great work. They do a wonder job on my vehicles.
Absolutely the most disrespectful mechanic I have ever met in my life. Just one phone call and I know I would never refer anyone to this place or ever take so much as a lawnmower here. When I told him I was going to leave a poor review he threatened violence on my life, and told me I was lucky to of made it out of the Orlando club before it got shot up.Called back and spoke with the owner, didnt seem to care much.
As a business owner, I have taken ALL of my vehicles here for maintenance and repairs for over 3 years. I am happy with this business and will continue to use them. Prices are right and service is spot on. Bring you car in, I can recommend this business.As far as the post by the ex-employee (I have met him), I agree that he is a thief as he was actually caught stealing money (change) out of one of my vehicles while it was in for service. This guy is truly a dead beat, typical pill head looser and it is a good thing he is no longer there. It is a shame that such dregs of society can post about a business that was good enough to hire him and get his looser ass of the street. Oh well, life has a way of catching up to scum like him.
This was the worst experience Ive ever had with trying to give money to someone in return for a service!!My car broke down on the corner located near his place of business on my into work, without doing any research (because I was late for work) I pushed my vehicle into his parking lot and regretted it the second he came out of his garage yelling at me to remove my car from where his wife parks. Once I explained the car wouldnt start and could you help me move it to where you want it he just turned around and went back inside while throwing tools that either hit a car or hopefully just his tool box.He sent his employee outside and had me move it one space over (his wife couldnt park there?)I explained I worked over at Honeywell and if he didnt think hed be able to figure it out I would just have the car towed to my normal mechanic and his entire attitude changed and he assured me hed have an answer before I went to lunch.After numerous phone calls that day he still didnt have answer on why the car wouldnt start(3pm), but not only that, he told me in the process of trying to start the car the battery died and wouldnt charge so I now owe him for a battery. He assured me yet again that he would have an answer for me shortly, I stopped by after getting off of work (4:50) and found his employee sitting outside and the shop locked up.. Even though posted hours are till 6pm and he told me hed be there when I got off.I took an uBer home $36.51 and took an uBer to work 38.11. I waited till 3pm to call him when I heard nothing from him all day, When he finally answered after leaving me on hold for 15 minutes he snapped at me and hang up.I immediately called a tow truck and after he made a huge scene about owing him $160 for a battery that had no name on it, I was able to get my car to my normal mechanic.. After being at my mechanic for 45 minutes they were able to trace the issue to a relay and charged me $126 bucks including parts, labor/diagnostic and tax..Again, there was no reason for any of this! I could have just towed the car to my normal mechanic and uBerd to them after work and no one would have been inconvenienced.. Its a shame people like this exist just to waste peoples time!There are warnings out there, Dont ignore them!Bob at Absolute is not a good mechanic or person!
I wouldnt send my worst enemy to this place. He cant even fix a broken record! Never take you car or truck to this place! RUN!
Dont come here!!!
EXPENSIVE......and when he tells you he went through the whole car, get a second opinion.....charged 400 bucks on a $1400 car to fix the power windows then 2 weeks later when the windows failed, he said he didnt work on that....theres much better out there, I could have went to Saab for less
Bob is amazing
Awsome service
