I brought my car to Bays of Thunder on July 3rd. I specifically asked them to call me to discuss any unexpected work or costs. They charged me $400 more than their quote for work on my clutch without discussing with me. I asked them to look at a brake caliper that was sticking, and they ended up changing out the caliper and my rear brakes (which were only 3 months old) without speaking to me first, at a cost of $455 (including three hours of labor!). An oil change was a $34, which isn't criminal, but a crappy deal none the less. With other miscellaneous work thrown in, total charges were about $1,000 above what was quoted, and mostly unexpected and never discussed ahead of time. The car was not done until July 29th, twenty six days after I dropped it off.This shop is where nightmares about mechanics are born. The work took forever, they ran up our bill without discussing it with us, their communication was horrible until the bill was due. I would recommend avoiding this shop. ...read more

I was sitting on the interstate with a flat tire on a sunday afternoon. The 1-800 service number couldn't find anyone who would come and change it. I drove up to the next exit found a guy who called Kelley. Within a short time he met me at his shop and changed the tire. He is the nicest guy ever to give up his personal time to do a huge favor for a stranger. ...read more

I have to see how far UP the Mississippi Dakota lies but am planning a trip to Winona week after next and would love to see more or your work. ...read more
