Terrible. Tried telling me the car HAS to have the oem cat then quoted me 900 for the complete job and wouldnt tell me how much the part was. It was a failed cash grab. He literally walked in the back proly bullshited with the other employee and walked back out to give me a random price.

I went to these guys because my fuel pressure pump went out. 3 times I had to come back because the one they installed kept failing. You know what I found out why???? Because they were putting in a cheaper pump rather than installing the recommended GM pump. I already paid $850 dealing with these cons at least they could of gave me the right pump from the start. They lost me as a customer.....

My car wouldn't pass emissions. There were no codes/engine lights. The cat monitor wouldn't complete. Because of this no shop wanted to be bothered with it. Mike's emissions let me drop my car off the same night. The next day they determined my catalytic converter was going bad. They put a new one on and after a week of driving the monitor cleared. This was an issue I've been dealing with almost a year. I'm very happy with their service!

I've heard nothing but great thing's about this place and I don't want my one visit to hurt this place. I just don't like when people try to take advantage of women. I was told the mechanic spent an hour and a half running my diagnostic and he'd only charge me $50. When i dropped my car off I told the intake woman that I'd already had it tested and put on the machine and that i need a solenoid censor & can they fix it?At that point they should've said hey we don't go in transmissions only change them. Basically they knew they couldn't fix my car but ensured they got that $50 bucks by telling me EXACTLY what I had told them. Its not just the money it's also the principal for me, being from the South we believe in honor and helping our community especially in such discerning times. Shame on you Mike!! On the other hand EVERYONE says how good thier work is and i believe those people and I still trust this shop with my car. It was giving back to me EXACTLY how I left it, it was parked safely behind the fence, the intake woman listened to my gripping yet didn't loose her temper with me.

I have been taking my cars to Mike's Emission Clinic since 2005. They have never let me down. The a quick, pleasant and they fix it once and you are good to go. They have never had to keep my car overnight. There were times when I actually sat and waited. They are also a lot less expensive than other places.

Was having a crisis!! Dave kicked in just like a big brother would!!! Saw my panic, and even though he couldn't help my problem, calmly directed me to someone that could.... and phoned them that I was coming! Then he kept communication going on my progress for a missing rescuer. Saved my day

I took my vehicle at Exhaust Masters in Merrillville June 2014. My vehicle had sat close to a whole week before it was touched. Exhaust Masters said it would run me $1,500 to get the car passed. There was no way I couldn't afford to get it fix. I was talking to a few people at work and they said take it down to Mike's Emission Clinic in Gary off of Ridge Road. I came in and everyone was very nice and pleasant. I showed Dave of what Exhaust Masters was trying to charge me. Dave looked at the car and said "the things they were trying to charge you, don't need". When the vehicle was done, the repair bill was $400. The car passed flying colors. All zero's straight across the board.I am very particular where I take my car to get it fix. Actually, this place reminds me Ron's Amoco in Merrillville off of Broadway and Route 30. Small shop but excellent mechanic's. They also sold Amoco gasoline. I would truly recommend this in a heartbeat. All I can say, my car runs better than it did couple of years ago.

I had the worst experience with them a person could image. First of all, Dave is a liar!! I dropped my truck off to get my headlights changed wound up paying $900 for ballots & bulbs. I go out to check out what they ve done & finds out they have cracked my grill on my Cadillac Escalade in several place & tried to glue it back together. Dave lying saying they didn t do it when I know it wasn t like that when I dropped it off. I was so ANGRY!! This place is a rip-off & very careless. In the result of all of this I called the police & looking into further matters. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!

Do not take your car here.Asked for full body tune up n to fix a 02 sensor for $380. Completely ruined my engine on a 2000 buick lasabre. Did not have enough care to even call or say what he did wrong just kept my car for 6 hours when we got it back it started smoking and overheating. Completely ripped us off!!!!!!!!!

I've taken my 1993 Chevy S10 Pickup Extended Cab here manual as well as my 01 Ford Escape. He has done my O2 sensor, countless steering jobs (inner and outer tyrods, whole kit installation), suspension work, control arm, and is great at doing exhausts. He has also done my racks. Only thing is one time a spark plug wasn't attached back all the way and one time stripped bolts that my tire goes on. Those are easy things to fix at home. Like I said he's good, just got to check for yourself after a job to make sure there's no small mistakes.

Needed a radiator and my trusted Mechanic was swamped so I brought it to Mikes... Very efficient and friendly service... My temperature gage was rising after and I was told to bring it back and it needed a serpentine belt and they fixed it within the hour... Thanks Mikes!

Dave and his crew were able to fix my car in a couple hours and for a lot less money than I was anticipating. I passed emissions and the light still hasn't come back on. Very satisfied!
