Hayes Auto Repair

Came into shop and owner was screaming at a client/potential customer for one of his used cars he was trying to flip/sell.. lied to me about multiple general car questions. Shops like this make people dread going to the mechanic. Not sure where all the good reviews are from.. but owner seems to be Chaldean so it’s probably his family or close friends giving the reviews.

Within five minutes of walking in, as I was explaining the issue, the man behind the counter (Justin?) asked, "why do you want to mess around with this. Trade it in - I have a car lot." I should have know right then... In telling me the estimate, Justin explained that they "inspect the whole car." He explained that the bearings, rotors, and brakes were shot and if I didn't replace them, "the wheels will fall off." I heard that from another shop a few years ago, so I replaced the bearings, rotors, and brakes then. There are less than 9,000 miles on those parts. If you vehicle is over 100,000 miles, they're going to tell you the bearings, rotors, and brakes are bad and your wheels are going to fall off. There's no way they even looked at them. The actual repair I wanted done is about 2 hours and the part is $17. I've seen videos where they can get to the part in 15 minutes. They estimated over $650. I declined. Honest mechanics can make a good living. It's shops like this that

It was a very good experience. The people were friendly, the prices were good, and they did their best to try and stick within my budget. They did the work very fast and honestly was one of the best places that I've been to to get auto work done. I will definitely go to them again.
