If you have a diesel definitely take it to budget automotive. Its hard to find honest mechanics these days. I was quoted over $4,000 at another shop. To say I was surprised when it was under $2,000. I will definitely be taking all my vehicles in the future to get worked on by budget automotive. Thanks again for the awesome work service and pricing.

I am always so pleased with the good service I get from John @ Budget on 103rd. We have old cars & he keeps them going for us. He always evaluates and then explains what he thinks needs to be repaired plus providing an estimate. He gets the guaranteed work done in a timely manner, & I am always a satisfied customer because he backs up what he does until its right. A great place to have your vehicle repaired!

I dropped off my van that had been giving me trouble for some time. Finally driving got to be dangerous with the ecu trying to calibrate every time I stopped. Dropped it off one afternoon and they called the next day telling me to come pick it up. Great service and priced right.

Of the many times I have used them I have always found them to be professional, fair, and speedy. They have always tried to meet any urgent repair needs. Price is fair and they stand behind their work!

Rude inconsiderate and dont really care about making any money or helping out customers in need. it would be best if you went by there directly rather than call because they will hang up in your face if they cant answer the question or if they just dont know.

Do not take your car here. I took mine in for a water pump and blown head gasket. The told me 4-5 day. They had my car for 3 1/2 WEEKS! They did several repairs without informing me, and once I got my car back there were several things wrong that worked fine before taking it in. Do not waste your time or money at this shop.

I brought my 2003 Chevrolet Implala in because the brakes were very soft and they found the leak in the brake line and repaired it. I go it back the next day and only paid $135. This was the best experience I have had at a garage in a long time. I will be going back in the future.

Horrible, business practices and customer service. My vehicle was taken to this establishment three times within 9 days. Prior to this visit, Budget Automotive placed a new engine in my truck, November, 2017. I purchase a warranty for back-up. June, 2018, my truck gave me a signal indicating my truck may be running hot. I immediately, made contact with the company of purchase and Budget Automotive. After examination of the truck, I was told by the owner, John, he could find nothing wrong. I picked up my truck after being without it 5 days. Immediately after driving off the lot, the temperature indicator light began to rise. I called Budget and towed my truck back to them. The lady at the desk was very rude getting upset, because I asked how they could see nothing if my vehicle was driven daily. The owner told me it could only be the Thermostat sticking. I said, it if sticks it could stick again...he suggested replacing it. I picked up my vehicle after the thermostat was replaced. The following Monday while driving, the truck again started to run hot. I called again and returned my truck. This time, I was told it was the water pump. They replaced the water pump, I drove my truck off their lot Friday. The next day, Saturday, my driveway was flooded with Anti-freeze. I towed my truck back the next day Sunday. Per the owner it was a bad water pump. My truck was not running the same...I had a certified mechanic look into why it wasnt running smooth. He lifted the hood of my truck and discovered my Air filter was not connected, causing the truck not to run as it should; and addition to that, the top cover over the area where the water pump was installed, was just sitting loose on top of my engine and the brackets were removed and not reinstalled. Budget was paid and overpaid for the horrible service I received. I am filing a complaint. Paying Customers receiving sub-standard service is unacceptable. I intend for my warranty to be carried out. I paid Budget in good faith and was treated with disrespect.Hazel has a nasty disposition, especially when asking questions concerning your vehicle. She became very rude and committed, they did not have all the information, until my truck was returned, unbelievable...they are the mechanics. She also had the nerve to say, after the 2nd time returning my truck, I hope I dont have to see you again, but stopped short and tried to clean it up by saying, unless you need an oil change. John was cordial and polite. If Hazel cannot greet person with respect, maybe she should work in the back. It makes Budget look horrible.ADDITIONAL THIS COMPANY DOES NOT HAVE AN ANSERING SERVICE OR MACHING SET-UP. I CALLED THROUGH OUT THE WEEKEND (ALL) THREE WEEKENDS, THERE WAS NO VOICE MAIL SET-UP FOR CUSTOMERS TO MAKE CONTACT. UNBELIEVABLE AND UNPROFESSIONAL, NO CONTACT IS AVAILABLE UNTIL THEY OPEN AFTER THE WEEKEND.

This is not a good company to do business with. I took my car in to have my engine and AC compressor replaced and it seemed like I would never get my car back. The entire process took about a month and a half to complete.When the job was done and I got my car back I noticed that the engine was running hot and the AC wasnt working properly. It turned out that the wrong type of coolant was put back in the car, which caused the new engine to run hot. The AC blower motor was also damaged when they put the new AC compressor in.I called the company to let them know about the problem and all I got was an apology about putting the wrong coolant in my car which could have ruined my new engine. I was further told that I needed to pay to have they AC blower motor replaced.I have had nothing but problems with my car every since I got it back. The company seems to always be a couple of weeks behind on work. For example: It took three weeks to complete my engine and three weeks to complete my AC when you account for the times I had to take it back to have them fix their mess ups. In other words I was without a car for approximately, six weeks. I had to borrow a friends vehicle to get to and from work during that time, which I had to pay to use. Thank god for friends. I would have lost a lot more had I not had them during this time (getting my car repaired by budget).

The worst service you can imagine, these people charge very high for a diagnosis and do not agree on the price from the beginning, in reality I feel cheated, in short I ended up taking the car to another place and it turns out that the famous diagnosis was all wrong, Besides, they wanted to charge $ 104 dollars just for starting my car, which they assumed was wrong, in the other workshop they connected my car to a computer and also did a deep analysis and they did not charge a dollar. I do not recommend them at all, seriously the worst experience of my life
