So, I'll start this off by saying that no one ever likes to get their car repaired...especially in Arizona...and certainly when that repair is associated with the AC. Knowing full well the potential cost of the repairs, I approached my search for a repair shop with caution.
TJ and the guys at Kinkade's were super awesome. TJ shot me a quote within the hour with two possible costs depending on how bad the ac was. Come to find out, it was the dreaded compressor that had gone out. TJ gave me options, letting me know what he recommended, but not pushing needless repairs on an already expensive situation. He was straight up and forward, and I am glad he was. My wife and two boys are now riding in a nice refrigerated chariot, facing these nasty summer temps.
I will certainly be going back if I need anything else repaired. They made a painful situation very bearable.
