Brought in a 2002 Ram with engine light problems. Was referred by the Dodge dealer. I explained in detail the 1.5 year saga w other shops. Turns out the same thing was tried, charged a lot of money, and the lights back after 130 miles. Talked to the shop and scheduled an appointment but call back later to ask for a partial refund. He said no. # A dissapointed customer.

I would give them more or less stars but I actually didn’t get to experience their services. Just interaction with the man at the counter. I asked about patching a tire he told me they couldn’t do it right now and just said maybe later this afternoon but never offered a time slot or anything. Just told me that “lots of other places do that” which I was already aware of. Right away it felt like he was just turning me away. I understand patching a tire isn’t something that is going to bring the business much money but obviously I would need more work and bring my car back if it felt welcomed

When I first came to them about six months ago, my car battery kept inexplicably (to me) dying. I had just walked in without an appointment, and they couldn’t fix the car that day.
I thought I was “safe” to start the car again without a jump because I had gotten it jumped that morning and then driven for a while before stopping at Coastal Rebuilders to see if they could help. Of course, it didn’t start. I panicked, looking around to see if the owners of the cars parked next to me could jump me.
Coastal Rebuilders saw that I couldn’t start the car and came out and helped me, despite

I needed some unexpected work on my 1995 Celica this week. My usual shop was booked and I had just spent quite a bit of change on bodywork after two accidents in January.
I was at my wits end. The body shop recommended Coastal Rebuilders, and had made arrangements for me to see them. My car was towed there immediately.
This was on a Tuesday. By close of business Wed..the next day...the work was completed, and at a fair price since it was an expensive job.
I picked it up today, and could not be more pleased. Ive always wanted to restore this classic car as much as is feasible.

What a great guy to deal with. I was in a difficult situation and needed someone to help me without taking advantage of me. He ordered a starter to do a visual check for compatibility before he even called me then sold it to me for about 800$ less than the factory. I was up and running in only a few days with no issues. Thanks for being there when I needed you and treating me fairly

Was there today to get my brakes checked after I was told from the dealership that I needed front and back brakes. Wanted a second opinion so I came here. They told me that my brakes were in perfect condition. I really appreciate their honesty and will definitely be coming back there in the future!!!

Let just preface this review by saying, I've only been here once and I only give five stars if a place goes beyond excellence for the customer. The service was friendly, efficient and fairly priced. Unfortunately for customers, but fortunately for Coastal Rebuilders these three adjectives make them an exception. They took my vehicle when they said they would and had it ready when they said they would and everything was fixed as to be expected. Just a good barebones shop. Will use them again!!

This place was great. I had a 2004 Ford F-150 with electrical problems. Two other mechanics and the Ford dealership’s service department in town passed the buck and couldn’t figure out my vehicles problem. The guys are Coastal Rebuilders were able to fix the problem and in a timely manner.
