Big O's Automotive

I was looking for a legitimate person to fix my credit score. It was so bad that I was denied numerous times getting anything so I needed help. I read about a credit specialist on a credit blog and I hired him. I noticed after a couple of days he had already cleared all negatives including my taxes and raised my score to an excellent 795. I qualified for a business loan. should you need help fixing your credit, FixMyCredit is your plug. here; (FixMyCredit at WriteMe dot Com).

Took my 10 year old, mechanically neglected car into Big O's on a Monday. I complained that the wiper didn't work it needed a tune up. They told me nothing was wrong with it; they just did an oil change and added fluids.

To fix the wiper, they quoted me $950 to fix the Control Module under the center shift console. When I picked it up, they again said that there was nothing wrong with it, no vibration at all. The guy helping me (manager?) confirmed that they took it for a test drive and found nothing wrong....So they charged me $198.25 for an oil change and fluid check!

Two days later, the check engine light came on. Knowing better, I did NOT take it to Big O's. I took it to a REAL mechanic, and complained of exactly the same things.

Here’s what the REAL mechanic identified, that I kinda knew about but didn’t think were a problem or that it could be fixed. Again, Big O’s didn’t notice ANY OF THIS.
Brakes were shot (the brakes pulsated like crazy!)
It was leaking in a couple places (my driveway looks terrible)
Serpentine belt was squeaking
It had trouble shifting gears
Fuel filter was bad

Here’s what they fixed:

The wiper was a FUSE ($20! Remember, Big O’s quoted me $950!)
Spark plugs
Oil change
O2 sensor
Tune up
Brakes & Rotors
Identified the leaks (engine and transmission)
Changed belt
Replaced the crankshaft seal
Flushed the rear differential twice (it was ORIGINAL, 10-year-old fluid and had metal shavings in it)
Replaced the transaxle fluid

My car runs like a top now. There’s a mechanic near Old Seward and Huffman that works out of a gas station. That’s the place to go.

A mechanic is supposed to diagnose and fix problems. Big O’s did neither. They charged me $198.25 for an oil change and fluid check that I could have got at Jiffy Lube for $50.

Oh. And when i called the manager today, he said "well, we didn't do anything to it" .... that was my point! And he said that, yes, it was a fuse, but the $950 part would "go out eventually."

I doubt a shop could be more honest or professional. They fixed my 4WD on my truck for far less than I expected.

The best auto repair shop around! All the mechanics are highly trained. Everyone is nice and very trustworthy! I have used this shop for 10+ years and I wont go anywhere else!

friendly clean and great work!!!

This place is the only place I will take my car. I was broken down on the road they got a tow truck to me right away. They took my extended warranty I didnt have to do anything. They were fast with quality work.

This is the only shop I will take my vehicle. They are trustworthy people who are not out to just make a buck. They have always gave me honest information. At first before i got to know this company I use to shop around and have found every time that they were the cheapest. In one occasion they saved me 1000 on a repair that a different shop told me had to be done When actually it was not the problem. Go in there once and you will never go anywhere else again.
