We had been using Litchfield Auto Repair as our trusted mechanic since 2014. But all that stopped during 2018. I know this review is way over due, but our experience was far from an honest & fair one. We had 2 separate vehicles with separate issues, that we took into LAR at separate occasions. The first one had a blown engine. We weren't sure what the problem was at first since we had given this vehicle to my mother in law and it had broke down on her. LAR took a look at it and said in order to find out if the engine is blown they'd need to replace the head gaskets which was going to cost 4 figures $$$$! Basically we would have had to stay committed to fixing it if we went that route. We declined since it was too much of a gamble. We took it to another place and right off the bat they were able to tell us the engine was blown. They didn't need to replace no stinking head gaskets to know that information! I was upset to know the people we had entrusted with all our vehicles would do us like that. To me that's taking advantage. The second vehicle was the last straw. We had bought it used and taken it to be fixed and maintained for the duration of a couple of years. Finally we got tired of the same issues popping up and not getting fixed. The hoses were brand new, that they had replaced months prior. Yet when we took it over to them because of a overheating problem, they said we need to replace the hoses and clamps?! We decided park the vehicle and not throw anymore money into it. My uncle took a look at it one day and replaced the coolant and lo and behold it was fine. It was not overheating anymore. He said the hoses and clamps didn't need to be replaced?! He said there must had been a bubble in the coolant and it just needed to be drained and refilled. That was it for us, we were tired of trusting them to take our money and not fix the real problems. This review has been in my drafts and I decided to finally get it out there because this was my experience and I don't like being ripped off.
