I’ve been going to The Garage for years and generally trusted their work, but my most recent experience left me disappointed. I brought in my 2019 Acura TLX because two warning lights came on: “Emissions System Problem” and “Electric Parking Brake Problem.” They charged me over $230 for a diagnostic check, and I was surprised to learn that this fee isn’t applied toward the repair if you choose to move forward. Their recommendation was to replace the part connecting the gas tank to the cap. The quoted price for the part alone was about $450, whereas I found the same part online for around $225 (plus labor). The overall estimate for repair was close to $1,000. Before agreeing, I got a second opinion from another mechanic, who simply suggested resetting the warning lights first. That’s what I did, and it cost about $225 total. Two weeks later, I’m still driving with no issues and the lights never returned. When I asked The Garage why both lights would appear at once, they said it’s common for multiple warnings to come on to prevent driving—but several mechanics I spoke with afterward told me they had never heard of that explanation. It left me feeling like The Garage was recommending a costly repair without fully confirming the root cause. This is disappointing, especially since I’ve trusted them for years. I hope this was just an isolated experience, but it’s worth noting for anyone considering service here.
