Took my Jeep to Clayton's Lakeview Auto (because my father told me he was an honest guy) and got work done because the engine light was on. I was told they would need to be repairs but was not told how much like I should have. I figured about an hours work which is $90. My bill came to $226 with tax! The problems i have are: (a) was not given an estimate and (b) was not told the repairs were in fact UNNECESSARY until after I paid. I thought the $100 I brought would be enough until his wife told me that the bill was an extra $126!! When she came and picked me up, she brought her two kids with her, maybe a guilt trip?? Not for me, it was worse than that! never going there again! Better mechanics on Memorial St. anyway plus their work is covered by warranty! Do not be fooled by this place!
