Sam’s Ase Auto Tech

Took my truck to sams for a simple water leak and have them check out my transmission. Got it back with the same water leak and a blown moter wound up costing me 3000.00 to fix. sams would not take responsibility for any of the damage. The damage that was done was a result of over reving the engine and spun a main bearing. would not trust them with a go cart.

The service here is great! The people are honest and friendly. I got the best quote here compared to the many other places I checked. Parts came in within a reasonable amount of time and the work was done in a timely matter as well! I would recommend this place to anyone and my friends!

I have taken my vehicle here for years! I’ve never had an issue with this shop. Derek, Sam’s son, has been so helpful, honest and always treated us fairly. Their work and customer service coupled with their fair pricing has made them my go to repair shop for all three of my vehicles needs. I highly recommend them!

Honest and beyond reasonable. I would highly recommend. Unlike other car places that go digging for problems or creating them, they fix what needs to be done.

took my car here to get oxygen sensors. They had the car for the full day and did not start the work until after calling me to pick it up. I was asked to follow to the shop, they changed them right in front of me (after the «mechanic» confessed he did not know where they go) then charged me labor for the whole day. This included the 20 minutes waiting in line to check out. Sam actually checked his watch then altered the bill to add 20 minutes of «labor time».
I did not appreciate the religious pamphlets stapled to my receipt and having to listen to some self serving criminal jerk that is using his oh-​so-​religious front to cover the fact that he is ripping off everyone that goes in the place. I noticed the person in line in front of me had a similar overcharge problem, and not by just a few hundred dollars, either. What I had done costs one-​third of what I was charged here, and all the other shops in town have real mechanics. Stay away for your own good, resident Evil lurks here.

While visiting family in AJ for Thanksgiving, I needed to find a shop to do an oil change on my 35-​foot Class A motor-​home. I called to see if they could accommodate an RV of this size and if they could do the work that day, without an appointment. They told me it would be no problem and quoted me right around $ 55.00. I was in and out in right around an hour. They did the routine inspection, lubed the chassis and added a quart of transmission fluid. I had them use synthetic oil (about 4x the cost @ $ 5.00−6.00/qt) My total bill was right around $ 80.00 +tax. I can’t complain!

Took our car in to fix our speedometer and speed sensors. (car kept shifting into 3^rd) They got it fixed after 2 trips and were pretty quick about it. The cost wasn’t to bad, i felt like they weren’t trying to get me to buy anything i didn’t need. good stuff.

Too bad I can’t put a NEGATIVE star for this crappy place. I hate to be the one to write negatively but this place really sucks. Unless you like proselytizing with your car repair.
OK, so my truck was having a few seperate problems. one was the A/​C and it was like 115 degrees, and the other turned out to be the radiator.
SOOO I get a friend to put freon in the A/​C and that’s that. I take it to this place to have a diagnostic test run on it so they can determine that the radiator is busted. WELL I am new around here and they offer me a ride home while they work on the problem. I am thinking gosh these guys are so nice, wow! Guess what? Next thing I know I am trapped in a car with some old guy asking me which passages of the bible I have memorized. WTF? I tell the guy I am not a christian. now he’s thinking –CHALLENGE! Well next thing I know I am getting out of the car with some religious pamphlets and feeling like I need to take a shower. It was just creepy. I am sorry maybe there are some people out there who like to be told how and why they’re belief system needs to change when they go to get their car repaired.
Well finally I get a call from them saying «yep it’s the radiator, we can’t repair it so we’ll have to get you a new one» I say ok what’s that gonna run me. they say «$ 319.00» I hit the ceiling, said no let me call around and see if I can find something else. I just replaced the radiator in my old car for $ 60.00.I have NO LUCK! Sadly and reluctantly I call back and say ok do the work. Jesus freak picks me up and GOES OUT OF HIS WAY TO DRIVE BY HIS CHURCH on the way to the mechanic shop! I am like totally pissed feel like I am getting robbed and now this guy thinks he’s doing me a favor by talking about his religion which I am constantly changing the subject away from but he ignores me and continues to beat me over the head with… ANYWAYS we get to the shop, the guy goes «ok that’ll be $ 394.00!» I LOST MY MIND. I got mad argued and explained I didn’t bring that much money with me and now he was going to cut into my survival budget in a way that I wouldn’t recover from.
I am so mad looking at this guy with a jesus portrait behind him as he takes me to the cleaners.
I give him all the money I have and he gives me the keys. he’s stapling something to the receipt just before I snatch it off the counter and storm out. I look at the paper he stapled to it, and it’s guess what? BIBLE VERSES! Oh thanks, is this the one about how the mechanic can lie about the price over the phone and rip you off for another hundred bucks? I tore it off and threw it out the window onto their parking lot– I know it was really mature of me but I couldn’t help myself.
DO NOT GO HERE UNLESS YOU LOVE JESUS AND WANT TO PAY EXTRA!
