Went fine except car was not ready until next day despite having an appointment and having dropped car off first thing in the a.m. There were no problems and work was of a routine nature.

While running errands on Saturday morning, I noticed my Engine Service Light was on; after trying several basic items including turning the engine off and on and checking and retightening the gas cap (it was loose), the light remained on; I decided to see if ASG was open and if they could at least check the code with their computer so I would know what was wrong and could determine if it was safe to drive or if I needed immediate service; Craig was able to check the code right away (it was the loose gas cap), cleared the fault and had me on my way in a few minutes with no charge; Craig told me the light would have gone off eventually but the fault would have been stored; I have used ASG many times in the past and they always have gone the extra mile in providing customer service.
Description of Work: Engine Service Light came on this morning and I wanted to have the issue quickly checked out; Stopped at ASG without an appointment and Craig was able to both check and clear the fault within a few minutes without charge.

They called me within a couple of hours of having dropped the car off. The found the problem. Also did an oil change.
Description of Work: My car would not start. Thought it was a bad starter. Had it towed to ASG and they found the cause.

They told us when we bought the contract that we would go to the front of the line on the service work and that if it required more than a day, they would provide a rental care. Every time I take my car in, they keep it close to a week then, as soon as I get the vehicle back, all of the service lights come on again. I’m having break trouble right now but they don’t want to fix it because it’s a pretty big job and they’ve already done some work. Adam used to own the place but he has since left and we had been one of their best customers. We didn’t read every little fine print on the contract because Adam was answering all of my questions. Since then, they have refused to give me a print out of the work they have done, they haven’t provided rental cars, and now they are saying they only have to do work up to the value of the car and I have an older car. They are just out to get our money.
Description of Work: We bought a service contract with Automotive Service at Geist.

I had my oil changed at ASG, instead of at the BMW dealer because I received a free oil change coupon and because it is closer to my home. The coupon specified "semi-synthetic" oil change, and since I usually use all synthetic, I asked about the difference in price. I was told it would cost me $50. Since this would result in a not-so-free oil change, I opted to go with the semi-synthetic. I can't complain about the service. It is what it is, and I have no reason to believe that anything was done wrong. However, being used to the environment at the dealer, I was a bit dismayed at the size of the waiting room and the general lack of cleanliness (since I was one of the first customers that day.) It was also quite noisy, since the only thing between the waiting room and the service area is a pane of glass. But, free is free, and I don't mean to imply that I've never been in a less than pristine waiting room -- especially when having my car serviced. Although I indicated that I would use this company again, that isn't exactly accurate. I would only use them if the cost was appreciably less than it would be elsewhere. If it costs $90 at ASG for a synthetic oil change and $95 at the dealer, I will continue to have my oil changed at the dealer. The reason is strictly one of comfort. The dealer provides a large, very clean waiting area. ASG's waiting area is smaller than my bedroom, which under ordinary circumstances might not be that bad. However, I had the misfortune of spending my hour waiting with a woman, a toddler and a baby. While the woman played on the computer provided (nice touch), the baby cried, and the toddler (in my opinion) was ill-behaved. Even after her mother asked her to leave me alone, she persisted in standing 6" from me. When I asked her to take the pen she was holding away from my skirt as it was making ink marks, her mother became suddenly attentive. She told her daughter (not soto voce) that some people don't know how to treat children, and are mean. She went on that way for some time, and I chose to ignore her, which is somewhat difficult when you are sitting only a few feet away. Had the area been larger, I would have had the option of moving away. I mention this incident only to point out that my overall experience was negatively affected by the particular circumstances, and not so much by the service itself. That being said, if you are at all claustrophobic and/or don't want to risk getting stuck in an small room with less than pleasant company, I'd recommend you go elsewhere.
Description of Work: Oil change.

WHILE WE APPRECIATE THE FEEDBACK ON OUR WAITING ROOM, AND WILL STRIVE TO KEEP IT CLEANER, IT SEEMS UNFAIR TO LOWER OUR COMPANY'S AVERAGE RATING WHEN WE SPENT MONEY TO PUT COUPONS FOR FREE SERVICE INTO THE HANDS OF POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS, SUBSEQUENTLY GIVE AWAY THAT FREE SERVICE, AND IN EXCHANGE RECEIVE A RATING WHICH LOWERS OUR OVERALL RATING.

We have used them to service both of our foreign cars over the past couple years and were initially quite pleased. However, then it seemed like every time we took it in it to fix something it either wasn't fixed right (2X) or something else needed fixed immediately after we took it in (2X). Needless to say we finally decided it was too coincidental and will be taking our cars elsewhere in the future.

They refused to give me an invoice stating what all was replaced and repaired when everything was all said and done. The people who did the work didn't seem very qualified or experienced for the work they did. They had rude customer service. The owner was incompetent and was not very professional at all.
Description of Work: I took my car into Automotive Service Group and they diagnosed a problem in my car and decided that the power steering pump needed to be replaced. That service cost me $500. So I took it in a second time for $350 to have them replace the pump. However, they did not fix the problem. So I took it in a third time to have them try and repair it again because I kept having leaks in the power steering line. The third time they finally did the job correctly.

Response from Automotive Service Group
THIS MEMBER HAD BEEN A CUSTOMER SINCE MAY OF 2007 WITH TWO PERFECTLY SMOOTH VISITS TO OUR FACILITY PRIOR TO THE VISIT ON 8/8/08. ON THIS VISIT, THE MEMBER'S CAR, A 1992 WITH 172,021 MILES ON IT, WAS LEAKING POWER STEERING FLUID PROFUSELY. WE DIAGNOSED THAT THE PUMP WAS CLEARLY LEAKING, BUT THAT BECAUSE THERE WAS SO MUCH FLUID WE COULD NOT TELL IF THERE WAS FLUID LEAKING FROM THE ADJACENT HOSES, WHICH IS COMMON ON THIS MAKE OF VEHICLE. RATHER THAN RISK UNNECESSARILY REPLACING HOSES, WE RECOMMENDED STARTING WITH THE PUMP. THE PUMP AND SOME OTHER MINOR SERVICE WAS PERFORMED FOR A TOTAL OF $614 AFTER A $50 COUPON WAS HONORED. SUBSEQUENTLY, ON 8/13/08, THE MEMBER BROUGHT THE CAR BACK AND IT WAS INDEED LEAKING FROM THE HOSES. WE REPLACED ALL OF THE DRY-ROTTED 16-YEAR-OLD HOSES FOR $350 AFTER A $73 DISCOUNT THIS TIME AND THE SYSTEM WAS NOW DRY. ON 8/27/08, THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER STEERING PUMP PULLEY, ANOTHER 16-YEAR-OLD PART. AT THE TIME WE REPLACED THE PULLEY AND THE PUMP AGAIN TO ENSURE THAT IF THERE WAS ANY DAMAGE TO THE FIRST NEW PUMP THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE ANY FURTHER PROBLEMS. THERE WAS NO CHARGE FOR THIS SERVICE EVEN THOUGH THE FAILURE OF A 16-YEAR-OLD PULLEY WAS BEYOND OUR CONTROL. THE REASON THE CUSTOMER DID NOT RECEIVE AN INVOICE FOR THIS WAS THAT THERE WAS NO CHARGE FOR IT. IF THERE WAS POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE DELIVERED OR RUDENESS, I AM SADDENED THAT THE MEMBER DID NOT BRING IT TO MY ATTENTION. HE CLAIMS TO HAVE TALKED TO "THE OWNER" WHO HE INSULTS IN HIS COMPLAINT, BUT HE DID NOT. IF HE HAD SPOKEN TO ME I WOULD HAVE FULLY INVESTIGATED THE MATTER AND DONE WHATEVER NECESSARY TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM, AS IS OUR POLICY. MY PHONE NUMBER IS ON OUR WEBSITE, AS WELL AS ON OUR ANGIE'S LIST PROFILE. IT IS NOT UNCOMMON FOR A CUSTOMER TO DIRECT HIS FRUSTRATION WITH AN OLD CAR AT THE PERSON WHO IS WORKING ON IT. DEALING WITH THIS SIDE OF HUMAN NATURE IS JUST SOMETIMES PART OF OUR JOB. I WISH THE MEMBER THE VERY BEST.

Their estimate was a little over $200 less. I didn't have the work done here as I got rid of the car, but they helped me about 3 or 4 times. They were very helpful.
Description of Work: They helped me with my Mazda, as I was having an issue with the car dealer. They gave me a quote on replacing a part.

No other service that I know of is selling contracts like this. I would recommend them.
Description of Work: They have serviced cars for me for 20 years. I have a 98 VW Passat and 2000 Pontiac as well as a 1985 VW Vangon and they are all serviced by them. I just purchased a service contract for my 2000 Pontiac and my Passat. What this contract says is that they will make all necessary repairs to these cars over the next three years. There are no outs for them. The limitation is up to 15,000 miles per year. If you are away from home, whatever shop you take it to has to call them before they work on it. For an older car it sure is a helpful service.

I took my 12-year-old SUV in because the check engine light was coming on sporadically and I was about to leave town and needed it to be reliable. They diagnosed the problem (a faulty oxygen sensor), called to let me know what the problem was and how much it would be, and I authorized the repair and also a routine oil change and fluids check, letting them know that it was going out of town in two days. They did the work promptly and I picked it up the next day. The service was impeccable, the front desk staff is both friendly and efficient, and they always leave the truck at least as clean (if not cleaner) than when I took it in. Their prices are reasonable (a little higher than the quick-change oil places, but way cheaper than the dealership) and they take pride in their work. Personally, I'm happy to pay a little more for mechanics who really know their stuff, and that's what I get at ASG.
