Over a month of engine work and replacement only to have the shop total my car on the test drive. The complete lack of professionalism during the end of repair through the nightmare of having to deal with an insurance claim was the ultimate nail in the coffin. Over $13k in this vehicle alone shelled out and over a month of dealing with the shop. I brought four vehicles to this shop over the course of a couple years and was loyal and did everything they recommended. They dumped me faster than they took my $$ for the services I did over the years. The “regional manager “ had no desire to return calls or engage me in any way. Pawned me to the insurance guy who had to listen to me unload. I guess you could say I do not recommend TGK.

Had daughters car towed here because it wouldn’t start. Before even seeing the vehicle, they said they would charge for battery and then “whatever else needs to be done”. I commented how I didn’t understand why they are charging me for battery before even testing battery, trying to jump start, or running diagnostics I told them to run the diagnostics and figure out what it was first. They called me back to mention that $3200 worth of repairs needed to be done, including a fuel sensor, brakes, and battery. My daughter had just paid $1200 to the Lexus dealership for new front brakes 3 weeks ago. There was no additional recommendation for rear brakes. I was upset with all this confusing information and brought the car to Auto Collision Repair in SLP. Mike got the car towed start, told me it didn’t need brakes yet, and gave us a work around for the fuel sensor. Cost me $265 for the battery instead of the $3200 TDK wanted to charge me. Said the brakes were fine and would gladly install for much less than TDk wanted. TDK seems predatory. I would be wary of bringing my car here. They will charge you for everything they can, even when it’s not needed.

I cannot recommend this place enough. I had a brake issue and was able to get in for an inspection within thirty minutes of calling. Where most shops would take up to a week to complete the work I needed, TGK only took a day. Their report was perfectly transparent about what was essential and what was recommend and they never tried to oversell me on anything. As someone who just moved here and hasn’t yet established a “go-to” shop, I can confidently say that I will be going to TGK for everything from here on out!
