Had him check for a leak in overheating vehicle.He told me the radiator needed to be changed, which I knew and how much it would be. Ever since I got car back from him, my car overheats twice as fast and my left head light is broken. Live down the street would’ve loved to have him work on some of my vehicles in the future, but never now!!!!! Go somewhere else please!!!!!

In my recent experience, I encountered a transmission issue with my Honda vehicle. The dashboard lights indicated a problem, resembling a Christmas tree. Fortunately, after speaking with Tyler, I was promptly scheduled for an appointment. I was fortunate to have such a quick response, as the shop is typically very busy. I highly recommend their services. Before visiting, I called ahead to inform them of the transmission failure. They were able to provide me with a reasonable price and repair options. I greatly appreciate their assistance. If you require transmission service or repair, or if you encounter any other issues, I highly recommend this shop. After my repair, I have no more transmission problems, and my vehicle drives smoothly.
Dealership diagnosed with out even looking at it saying I needed a new transmission in my Ford transit 150. They wanted 10K. Took it to James at Leales and he based on my description new exactly what it was....Bad Speed control module and a small leak. Fixed in two days for way under 3K.. These guys are pros...Highly recommended.
Took my Dodge durango up here because I was having transmission problems. Now the guy Jim I spoke with was very friendly. Informed me of what was happening. Told me my only option was a new transmission. Or transmission rebuild. I truly did not want to spend $7895.85 However, they warranty their product and their work one year or twelve thousand miles. Cool, so we struggle to find the money. We get the money and make the payment. We get our car back a little less than a month later. I go to pick up my car after final payment and here's my floor board! It did not look like this when it came to them. The carpet was not pulled back. The glove box was not ripped off and laying in the floorboard. You would think after paying almost eight thousand dollars, they would at least put everything back the way it goes properly. That's what makes me upset, and that's what leaves this review. I paid them almost as much as I paid for the entire vehicle, and they can't be bothered to put a glove box back in its proper position versus leaving it on my floor........ The owner finally reached back out to me and attempted to make things right. I can say that the owner has then very cordial on the phone. Each time that i've spoken with him and apologized for his employees and their lack of attention to detail when it comes to my vehicle. He also emailed me a warranty for their work. One year twelve thousand miles. Though he reached out my opinion still stands that I would not take another vehicle to this company and I would be very careful in the future of anybody who goes to this company. Get your quote in writing prior to taking your vehicle up there. Take pictures prior to you taking your vehicle up there. And once your vehicle is returned to, you go over every inch of the vehicle to make sure the job is done properly.
