My dad's truck been there for 6 months almost, doesn't answer phone calls nor text back, it's been there for a motor swap went there in person around 3 months in person to see what was going on it was sitting on its rotors in the garage, the old motor wasn't even taken out. While the new was sitting there. Then tells me a month later that the new motor has problems 5 months later no communication, no input where the truck stands on the new motor.Service: Engine repair

Took my car in to diagnose for a rough running problem late-June of 2018 with the understanding "it would be awhile because he's 'super' busy". Still, it took him (Mike, the owner) 3 weeks before I got any answer, the car was in pieces (according to him), and he 'thought' he found the issue (a vacuum leak and he didn't say if he hooked a computer to the car to diagnose the problem(s)). Vague and lazy answer. On top of this, I didn't authorize ANY work to the car, I got no invoice prior to him 'taking it apart', and then he got annoyed because I wanted the car back. I didn't give him permission to 'fix' my car, the type and cost of the repairs were never discussed, and because I 'annoyed' him (Mike, the owner) he told me I have to give him $805 (up to this point he added) for repairs he has NO proof of doing. I was told I would get an invoice (in detail) when I hand him $805 in cash. He will NOT release the car without that payment. This would be all well and good if the car ran, as it stands, because I 'rushed' him, it does not run anymore, he had it for months, and only God Himself knows if the car is even worth keeping or getting back at this point. It seems to me the only people posting 'good' reviews are people that 'know' him. I fell for the false, good natured reviews this person had and now I will never see that car my Father left me in his will again. My faith in people is failing daily because of people like Mike Ziminsky.

Friends trucks been there for 3-4 months now for a used engine swap, it takes 2 weeks Max to do this by yourself even. Thats with assisting other customers. I know 3 mechanics that can do such in Mt carmel/Shamokin area that do this while being packed with business. No excuse, if he didnt think he can do it on a reasonable time frame even a month max of dont take the Job or atleast communicate with the customer whats even happening. 4 months and still going. Also from the looks of these people that rate this place looks like his friends lmfao

Our truck was picked up in November by this garage to have an engine repair that turned into it needed a new/used with low mileage engine. We are in MAY - the truck is not done. The owner is now dodging calls and the last video of the truck it was in pieces and the owner of the shop claimed the engine he received was faulty so he was getting another. $$ THOUSANDS up front - now we are not sure the truck is even THERE - We will be seeing this gentleman (loose term for a slimeball) in jail hopefully but if not jail at least sued for 3 times what we are out to include the truck and the money we paid up front. BEWARE ANYTHING THIS GUY SAYS - LIAR AND A THIEF.Services: Transmission, Engine repair
