5 /5 Warren Wong: Wow, had a car disaster with a breakdown on 680 near Concord. I was so stressed because I was on my way to a DJ gig. A friend brought his truck which saved my life and the gig, but I had to deal with the car still. I didnt know there was a four hour limit before a car gets towed..anyway, fetched my car out of the tow yard and a friend gave me a ride there.
My car broke down on the way back (battery terminal issue) and my friend recommend Mike @ Anywhere Automotive nearby. Trusting my friend, we went over, it was late evening on a Sunday. Slipped the key into the mailbox and texted Mike the details of what happened.
Long story short, Mike did great work, went over and above and got my car back to me the next day. INCREDIBLE turnaround and this was one of the COLDEST days of the year. It is not easy to work with your hands out in the cold. Huge respect to Mike. Gave him a tip on top of the great work he did.
I had two car issues that both became a colossal failure point. I had a minor front end collision that moved my radiator. Over time, it was rubbing on a certain part of the chassis and a slow leak developed that took several months to form. Meanwhile, my battery terminal was corroding from a bad battery (I just replaced it) and I didnt take care of the corrosion cleanly. It came back and the lack of conductivity was killing the battery charge. So my car would lose power every 30 seconds without a jump.
Mike replaced the radiator, replaced the battery terminal and even fixed hood a bit so it could close all the way. There was a gap previously due to the the small accident before. It was such an eyesore.
He also cleared my codes and gave me pointers on future items to work on for the car.
Just amazing honesty, competence and speed. And again, he was working on one of the coldest days of the year. Had to give him an extra tip for that that too. Thank you Mike!!
