Just last week the fuel pump went out again. Since Mike had sold the business to a family member, I figured I may as well try to get the fuel pump replaced under warranty. They told me first they needed to prove to themselves it was the fuel pump. I had it towed into them. Finally after five days they said “yes, it looks like the fuel pump”. However, they don't have invoices from that far back and wont honor the warranty unless I still have my invoice from back in 2009. I told them there was a bar code and to follow it back to the auto store it was purchased at and that I have the original check, this way with a specific date and the pump bar code they may find the proof they needed by going to the store they purchased all their parts from.
Just beware, if you go there, don't ever make the mistake of questioning your bill. In their minds you have no right to do that and it offends them greatly.
Later they called and said I never purchased a fuel pump, even though I have a check but not the invoice. They stated they won’t work with me because her father had me on “no service” list from the time I question his invoice amount. I told her why I was on this list, she indicated I wasn't telling the truth, her father wouldn't do that. I told her I have witnesses to the event that were actually in the shop overhearing the phone call. When I mentioned that to her she said good bye and hung up on me.
Very trustworthy, very nice staff and owner. Easy to find and work done quickly.
During the time frame I used Mikes, I had a fuel pump replaced on my Yukon. Mike encouraged me to buy the pump with a lifetime warranty. Since I loathe changing fuel pumps I went with that. Not long afterwards the pump needed to be changed again and was honored under the warranty.

I used Mikes for years (2007 on) because he was very close to my home. Suddenly in 2013, the cost for an oil change jumped 50% more than it has ever been. My wife asked me to follow up on it to see if there was an error in billing. We cut a check but, before mailing it I asked Mike why it was so much more, was there an error perhaps? Mike got very angry and told me his prices were his to charge and was very angry that I questioned him or his prices. He told me never to come back, used the F-bomb and said he was tearing up the invoice and throwing it in the trash. We sent the check anyway, but it was not cashed.
If I was on their “no service”, list, then why take five days to tell me this? And why tell me to go ahead and have the vehicle towed to them? I think they did find the proof of warranty and don't want to honor it, instead, they are going back to the escape clause of her father not wanting to work with me in order to avoid living up to the lifetime warranty. If that were truly the case, they would have told me that before having my vehicle towed there.
