Towed my wife's car here. Had a busted radiator hose. Was verbally quoted $40 to replace it by the owner. Was told replacement hose would be delivered by 12:00 noon today. Went to local automotive supply store and inquired about the same hose for this car, the cost $18:50. Was told would be delivered to this shop at 12:00 noon. Wife called at 3:30 pm and was told the old hose had just been taken off and the car would be ready in 30 minutes. Went to pick up car 45 minutes later and was told the cost was now $136 and some change!! Well over 3 times the amount quoted!! The owner was no where to be found and of course the mechanic said " I have nothing to do with the cost of service repairs " needless to say my wife was upset!! Wife went to pay with a credit / debit card and was told by the mechanic " we do not accept those payments " only cash!Come to find out the reason behind it was, they did the same thing to a different customer over a year ago except it cost them a whole lot more time and money then us!! That customer put a stop on the payment and sued this shop according to the customer yelp a year ago. I told this owner I wanted to help support local businesses, but do to his short comings I will begin my search for select businesses with yelp being my guide!! If you fall short your not getting my support!! You (The Owner )should be ashamed of yourself to be lying to your customers! ! If for some reason you have to go to Summers repair( which I never will again ) GET A WRITTEN QUOTE OR LEAVE AND GO TO ANY ANOTHER SHOP! The best advice I can offer!

Went for sensor replacement and they decided to half way listen and replaced the wrong part. Now I have to buy a new sensor and have the right one replaced all on at my own expense because they refuse to fix their mistake. Will not recommend them to anyone.Service: Engine repair

Honest and reliable. Has worked on my vehicles several times, always without a problem. Most recently he took care of my car after 2 other mechanics worked on it failed to find the problem, but still charged me.

Back in April of this year I took my truck to Charles with Summers Radiator and Auto Service Repair and let me say, boy did I make a mistake. My timing chain jumped and needed to be replaced. I called around and got quotes from other local shops as well and decided to bring it here. Again, what a huge mistake. It is now nearly 7 months down the road and my truck is in worse condition than it was before I took it to him.

Back in April of this year I took my truck to Charles with Summers Radiator and Auto Service Repair and let me say, boy did I make a mistake. My timing chain jumped and needed to be replaced. I called around and got quotes from other local shops as well and decided to bring it here. Again, what a huge mistake. It is now nearly 7 months down the road and my truck is in worse condition than it was before I took it to him. After about 5 and a half months of him having the truck he finally tells me my truck is ready. The quote came in over double what he originally told me it would cost me. I couldn't understand that reasoning as I provided all of the parts. The only thing he did was the labor. After he dropped the price by $500 it was still over double the original quote. I sucked it up and paid it. I informed him I would be putting it on a credit card as I didn't budget for the price to be double what he originally quoted me. He informed me that he doesn't take credit cards because he's had issues with people disputing the charges. I think I know why now. I made it about 4-5 miles before my truck shut off with a whole new issue that I hadn't had before bringing it into his shop. He sent his mechanic to come look at to tell me I had a bad mass airflow sensor and that it was an easy fix. So I bought the MAF and sent it back to him and he replaced it. A few days later, I get the truck back with the exact same issue. My truck just keeps dying on me. I was then told it was a problem with my throttle body and correlating sensors. So instead of paying this crook more money I decided I would change the sensors and clean the throttle body myself. Truck ran fine for a few days. Then BAM! I heard a loud metal clunk/grinding noise and have two other mechanics look at it and tell me the timing chain had jumped again as it wasn't completely in time. I contacted Charles and he swore up and down there was no way the timing chain was out of time. So he looked at it again. Another few weeks. I was then advised metal shavings were in my oil tank and I would need to change and flush my oil with motor flush anywhere from 5-6 times and change the VVT sensor. No problem, I can change that sensor and do the oil changes. So the same day I pick it up he told me that it would need upwards of 20 oil changes (yes, twenty) and need to replace the VVT sensor. it died on me 4 times on the way home. I ordered the sensor and went to advance auto parts and picked up the motor flush, 5 qts of oil and a filter. Before I could even get the sensor replaced, now my air has stopped working completely, I get an alert saying AC OFF followed by another alert of "ENGINE HOT" with the temp gauge maxed out followed by billowing smoke. 7 months of my time and money wasted for my truck to be in worse condition than it was when I dropped it off at this "shop". On a side note, he can't keep any mechanics but the current mechanic he has he tells me is ASE certified where as the owner is only "Ford" certified. This dude shouldn't be a mechanic as I feel I know more than him. He will now have another disputed charge as I paid thousands of dollars for a job that left my truck in a worse condition. Charles, if you see this and you want to try to take me to court, be my guest. I can promise you I will win this one. Long story short, please don't take your vehicle here unless you want to be without it for an extended period of time, lied to, charged more than quoted and generally have your time wasted. The taco bell employees up the road could of fixed my truck better than this guy.

Very friendly people and affordable. My car broke down 3 hours away from home. I called Summers and they gave me the number for a tow truck. I only had my debit card and the tow truck only took cash so the shop paid my wrecker bill and just added it to my repair bill. It was going to take until the next day to get parts so he told me what was wrong with my car and got it fixed enough so that my car would be safe and be able to make the 3 hour drive to get it to a mechanic near my home. I highly recommend this shop. Very pleased with my service.
