My bill was miscalculated. The sales tax for Ocala is 7 percent. I was charged $30 sales tax that should have been at most $26.21. I was charged $30 for shop supplies. This is for oil change , brake flush and cleaning brakes. Do shop rags and cleaning fluid cost $30 ? I made an appointment for 8:00 am. I was on time for the appointment. They took 2 walk in customers without appointments ahead of me.

Hi Tim, In Marion County, Florida, the total sales tax rate increased to 7.5% starting January 1, 2025. Your bill was correct. As far as shop supplies, most shop charge a small% which is applied to all invoices. There is nothing out of line with the pricing on your invoice. As far as the reception, they check in people as they arrive. I'm sorry you had to wait a few minutes.

Psalm 109. Their attitude toward the poor is as callous as it gets..... In response to the owner's response: It takes approximately 9 seconds to say "Open the hood and face the car. The freon charging port is on a silver tube on the left in the back approximately six inches down from the top".... At 130 dollars an hour the cost for this basic answer would have been approximately 33 cents which I would have been glad to pay .... However, if you had wanted to provide an answer that also included glancing at the car to verify the location of the freon charging port, (a higher cost deluxe answer ) that may have taken about three minutes which at 130 per hour would have been six dollars and fifty cents , I would have been glad to pay that too. Charging that to ten customers per week would provide you with an extra sixty five dollars a week and approximately 260 dollars a month with no sweat. This would financially help you with ease, with not much work on your part. You could even agree to charge a ten dollar flat answer fee in advance. That would be a hundred extra dollars to you per week for ten customers a week, approximately four hundred extra dollars to you per month while helping the poor. You sound like you could probably use the money.

Holly, I'd like to explain how repair shops work: we get paid for our time and expertise to repair vehicles. We also have tremendous overhead and liability. You walked into our business expecting us to stop our paying work and help you out for free. When we refused, you left a bad review. Shame on you. We are connected to the parts store and get at least 10 people a week expecting this from us which is just not practical for a small business.

I was very satisfied with the job on my infinity q50. Chuck and his technicians were very accommodating and informative regarding the repairs that my car needed to make it road worthy again. They were also extremely pleasant and patient and answered all my concerns. I highly recommend them and I will be a loyal customer. Thanks for a great experience.

Thank you, Constance! We appreciate your kind words and recommendation. It's fantastic to hear that you had a great experience with Chuck and our team. We strive to provide excellent service, and we're glad we could make your visit pleasant and informative. We look forward to serving you in the future!

Heading back to Jacksonville on a somewhat tight schedule my fuel pump went out on my 23 year old ToyotaTundra. I called and Chuck answered the phone, assured me that he could repair it in time. Gave me a tow company. The truck got to his shop at 11:00 and I was out the door at 1:00 pm. Friendly, knowledgeable and very reasonable in costs. If you are in Ocala and need an auto repair shop, I highly recommend Pals Ocala Auto Repair.

We are so glad we could help you and get you back on the road, Audie! Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to serve you and your Toyota Tundra. Safe travels!

I am a new Ocala resident this yr. And I have and love my Infiniti SUV. While shopping at the auto store next door a super cool chick working there,kinda rare, told me PALS is an Infinti expert. And I've heard lovely stories about the owner couple since then. Both work there. They were quick in diagnostics and estimate and even with a complete and overdue brake job got my vehicle back to me that afternoon. He's quite the expert and she is beautifully warm and charming. On a scale of 1 to 10 I give them TWO 10s! Go visit.

What a wonderful testimonial, Kay! Thank you so much for the vote of 20 stars. :-) We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you at the next service visit.
