I have had work done by them with my previous vehicles with no issues. Also know of various other people who have used them multiple times. I think that was just an isolated incident. :thumbs:

And yet they accepted no responsibility. I'm not saying they do bad work. Just be there when the work is done. To make sure things are done properly.
