Maso’s Texaco

I came here to get an inspection a couple of weeks ago. The person who did my inspection did not fill out the form correctly it had scratched marks all over. I didn’t realized this was an issue until I went to the tax accessor office and had to drive back to Maso’s to get this fixed. If you go here just double check to make sure everything is written clearly.

Excellent! I work down the street and have been bringing my car here for years. Can’t say enough good things about experience from start to finish.

Pros: Quick inspection, definitely quicker than what I’m used to.
Cons: Guy is rude and will overcharge you.
I’ve been here before for my inspection (twice) and service for that is awesome, definitely recommend. If you need work done, be wary. My car overheated and my antifreeze was all gone & I just filled it one month ago. Answer: there’s a leak somewhere. Well that wasn’t good enough for the guy at the front. He insisted a diagnostic would be run that he would charge me for. Well okay, he said if work needs to be done the cost will go towards it. Two hours later (after he said it would only take one) he told me that I had a leak and needed a new hose. I asked how long that would take and he said an hour. That actually took an hour but probably only because I made a smart comment that it took him two hours to find the problem (which he responded that my car is old. Thanks for the insult, you know how to keep a customer). After they fixed it he refused to have the cost go towards my total. I told him that it’s supposed to and he gave the excuse that it took too long to find the problem and my car is old. Not my problem that it took that long, maybe you should have listened when I said there’s a leak. Could have saved you time & my money with a diagnostic. I wouldn’t have minded if he gave a valid answer (aka we don’t follow that policy here) but instead he refused to look at me or make eye contact with me. My boyfriend, who gives EVERYONE the benefit of the doubt, even said he was really rude.
I will not be returning there unless I can’t find anywhere to get my inspection done, which last time I checked (not too long ago) there are plenty reliable ones in my area.

First I want to say that I usually don’t write reviews, but I felt a strong need to write this one. I used this repair shop because all of the reviews were good, but needless to say, I was highly disappointed. I took my 2003 Cadillac CTS to the shop for a time belt replacement, water pump replacement, and fuel filter replacement. After the initial repair, it has been a non stop headache. After the first repair was done, my check engine light stayed on and the car was shaking like it would cut off any minute. When I called the repair shop to have them look over their work, I was alerted that they forgot to put my fuel filter on. They say they attempted to contact me, but must have had the wrong number. That is a lie because they confirmed the number when I took it back. Would I have ever known that they didn’t replace my fuel filter? Who knows. Ok, so they looked over my car and claimed I need new spark plugs and a timing ignition ($ 589 more). When I picked up my car, they claimed everything was fine. The very next day, the check engine light was back on and the car was shaking again. So I took it back to them. After looking at it this time, they claim it may be the plenum seals (don’t worry if you have never heard of this, neither did one of the workers at the shop). So they ordered the part and I had to take it back for them to put that part on. So now that the new seals were put on, everything should be fine, right? So now my engine sounds like a loud squealing pig. I don’t know what’s wrong or what they did, but my automatic lights stay on all day (they usually only come on at night). Seriously, the engine sounds horrible. I am so so so fed up with this shop that I may just take my car to the Cadillac dealership for diagnostics. This has been the worst repair shop I have ever dealt with. PLEASE DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE THAT I MADE. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE, GO SOMEWHERE DEPENDABLE. I hope they read this because I am sure they would be well aware of who I am. A couple of times when I went back to the shop, I had to wait in line because there were multiple people in front of me with complaints. Please take heed.

Local gas station I frequently visit, and they also have a garage and do many things other garages do… inspection, change bulbs out of headlights, oil changes, tires, anything you need. I usually don’t have to wait a while to get anything minor done although they may steep you on charges for minor fixes that I can’t do myself.

They have done a quick job on a State Inspection and changing a tire. Their gas is always the lowest around and they have a great car wash, too.
