Big Poppa's Auto repair?

Thoughts, experiences? I only saw 1 post that referenced them, but that was from before they were Big Poppa's. As much as I detest the idea of taking my car to a place called Big Poppa's (how ghey is that?), they're a lot closer to the Raunch Estates than just about anything else.

Other than the price to quality ratio I've heard they are fine

I took my car there for a quick fix of a wheel bearing. They obviously didn't known what they were doing. Took them 8 hours to get to the hub and they couldn't get the Anti lock brake sensor out to finish. So right before they closed they called and asked me what I wanted them to do. I said break it of you have to or I'll break it myself. They wanted me to leave my car there until Monday to finish but I needed it for work. I was told they would finish it before they closed and I would be able to pick it up. Well the mechanics ended up just putting the wheel back on and leaving, without fixing the car. I ended up doing it with a buddy of mine without touching the abs sensor the next day.

I was told it was a four hour job and made the appointment to drop off at 8am got it back not completed at 5pm.

If you need any work done, especially in the Lusby area, look up Ireland Towing. He is local to the area.

They suck. I took my car there for some exhaust work and they completely messed it up. They gave me a sheet of paper to write exactly what I wanted and then they didn't even look at it. Everything was completely wrong. Instead of using a bender for the exhaust pipe, they heated it with a torch and then beat the hell out of it. It was a horrible job.
