$100 diagnostics? lol....

Nov 06, 2024

Do not use this guy. My daughter went to him because when she was at Cruz, he doesn’t have the machine to run diagnostics on her car. This guy kept her car for two days. He told her it was $100 to diagnose it and he would have it by the end of the day. When she called him, he said he got busy because he had issues at the dentist so he kept her car for another entire day. Then he proceeded to tell her what was wrong with her car by sending her a screenshot of the AI answer from Google. When she said does he have proof of this because she doesn’t wanna pay for something that he’s not unsure of and she’s not sure if AI knows about mechanics, he yelled at her and said that he should make her pay $400 because he’s been searching for what’s wrong with her car even though he said he charges $100 for diagnostics and so she needs to take her car back. She asked if her mom could pay over the phone because I’m not with her and initially he said yes. And then when I tried to pay him over the phone or request an invoice he said he wanted me to text him my license and picture of my credit card. I told him I can give him the number over the phone or he could send me an invoice and I would pay it and he tried to keep her car. The guy is crazy. Also, her gas was down 3/4 when she got the car back telling me that he drove her car around for two days.

10/10 experience with Mike today. I know so little about cars and he was able to help me figure out what was wrong over the phone, then fix the problem within an hour of me calling. Great price, great service, and Mike is super personable. Relieved so much stress for me today, I will definitely go back to him if I have other car issues!

I've been doing business with Mike's Garage for 20 years now. We drive the few extra miles for our vehicles to be serviced by Mike and his team. I always receive prompt, detailed information, options and repairs. Nice to have a "go to" honest mechanic shop to ensure road worthy and safe! If you want the job done right, this is the place

You can't find to many honest mechanics nowadays. Can't say that about Mike though, he's as honest as they come. I had a problem with my rotors and he fixed the issue. He also kept the price in my budget range. I tell you he's one of the best mechanics in Tampa.

Every time I’ve come to this shop the owner has been very informative and kind. I’ve come here for used and new tires before. They never disappoint.

I brought my 2007 Prius to Mikes because they told me they worked on hybrids and I (mistakingly) believed them. Three days, a new regular 12v battery, and $600 later I was told my car would be fine with the exception of a few things regarding the cabin heating, which I wasn’t worried about since it’s about to be summer. However 5 minutes after I drove away from the shop every single check engine light vsc etc turned back on. It later broke down 10 minutes away from the shop on the same day i was told it was fixed. The most frustrating part for me is I was very pleased with Mikes attitude and how detailed he was about my car and it’s problems. However i realize I was most likely lied to (I was told all the lights turned off in my car with the exception of the check engine light) but they were definitely just reset before i got it. I feel as if I was overcharged and misled so they could make a quick buck off my car that’s one step into its grave. I am never one to write bad reviews, this is actually the first one i’ve ever written but after i explained to the mechanic that money is tight and then they still proceeded to rip me off, i decided i had to vent somewhere. Anyways would not recommend this mechanic, wish things worked out differently!

Known Mike for almost a decade. I will never take my car anywhere else.

Dec 06, 2022

This place can be your worst nightmare they did radiator repair on my car twice the first time they just use some kind of sealant 3 months later same problem...They charge Car Sheild 1200 to do nothing air conditioner, same thing twice, right now my car is still not repair...I have to take to another shop they wanted the use a fraudulent claim again the second time with car shield but that didn't work.. People take your car to a real repair facility one that's backed by the Better Business this garage is fake...

Took my Chevy spark for diagnostic, I was told have to paid around 100 bucks. Five hours later did a stop back at the shop because needed my car fixed asap and no body call me back to inform me what was the update. Well turned to be a motor damage one piston and have to replace or rebuild the engine. But what really bother me was, they continue making in "deep diagnosis" without any authorization and turn to be charged 375 dollars for a diagnostic. Very disappointing. I took to another mechanic to replace the engine.... You right Sr. This was one year ago and almost forget share my experience.
