Review content:
I was recently visiting La Porte from out of town when my truck broke down; I had it towed to this shop as I didn't know any local repair shops. Turns out I needed a radiator, belt and tensioners. I felt the price to be a bit high, but as I was stranded I also felt I had no recourse. The vehicle was completed the same day, but something told me it was not fixed properly. So I drove it around town for a while before parking it. Sure enough, within five minits I saw fluid leaking from under the radiator! Took it back and was told they had had problems with the fitting at the line from my transmission to the radiator. Obviously they had not ascertained the fitting was tight before releasing the vehicle as repaired. I was lucky to have listened to that voice, otherwise I might well have been stranded beside the road on my 70+ mile journey home! Did I mention that I am a ""mature"" widow traveling alone? So needless to say that would have been a bit scary--not to mention potentially dangerous! And as I'm far from Independently Wealthy---an expense I well could not afford!
Still not feeling comfortable, I had a friend look at my truck----and the battery was not even properly secured! It was loose in its holder and ""wallowing around"". Another less than comfortable feeling!
This shop may well have been in business for numerous years---but I would highly suggest it retrain its personnel in the field of ""car repairs"".

Just an update: day before yesterday, my truck was towed to a local shop with a BLOWN HEAD GASKET!! Obviously there was not adequate follow up checking done on my engine when it overheated and I had it towed to La Car Porte. I feel if proper pressure testing, etc had been performed while the truck was in La Car Porte, the fact that the heads and/or gasket had been affected should have been discovered. THEN the head gasket should have been replaced, thus avoiding possible further damage.
So again I reiterate: I would not trust this shop! They may be good for oil changes and the like...but they are NOT qualified for anything else!
