| - I feel like I need to toot the horn for auto shops because a good one is so hard to find. These guys are awesome.
First of all, they're legit. I mean they seriously remind me of my dad, getting down and dirty under our Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera to get it done. And there are plenty of yinz' n'at flying around to make me feel even more at home.
I had my tail lamp busted by some unknown object falling from the sky (no joke ... impact is totally inexplicable, while it was parked in the PIT short-term lot). My car is new - so there are limited aftermarket parts available. So I called the dealership, and they told me they could get the tail lamp assembly for, and Pons quoted me less - oh, the travesty of dealership markups. Or, maybe Pons has access to the Santa Workshop of car parts - I don't ask questions.
Even more, when I finally got over there to have the work done, they literally got the tail lamp, told me to hang out, and did the work on the spot. It is still in place, appears sturdy, and they advised me to not get a scratch touched up that I wanted to and told me to demand my detailer to take care of it ... I like free, quality advice.
Long story short, these guys aren't in it to rip you off, they know what they're doing, and they seem like genuinely nice guys. 6 days ago I was rear-ended on the parkway (sorry to anyone stuck in traffic on 376-E on Dec 29, not my fault) and I have the option of going to a shop with an estimate or one of State Farm's shops, which Pons is not. I'm pretty sure I'll be taking the estimate papers over to Pons anyway.
