I went to LCS auto service at a recommendation from a friend at Newark transportation department. I showed them the sheet from Ford that said the canister needed to be replaced. They replaced the purge valve. Guess what I’m still getting the same gas smell because of the canister was not replaced. So when I went back and told him that Ford had said it was the canister. So if you were quoted $500 for a purge valve, that was high But $500–$650 for a canister is actually normal. From Google and several shops. I told him Ford quoted the canister and I showed him the paperwork from Ford. And he charged me 500 for the purge valve and it’s the canister cause I still have the same gas smell that I had before I took it into his shop. I went back and talked to him. He had no plausible explanation except for that’s what you told us no it was not. I showed him the paperwork from Ford. That said it was the canister. Then he says to me well in our experience it’s always been the purge valve. So what happened was they assumed it was the purge valve even though I showed them that it coded it out from Ford as the canister. So I’m out 500 bucks now it’s another 400 to get the canister replaced. He did not offer to help me in any way shape or form on the cost of this. My name is Darren Wingate. I was his customer. Ask him. I can prove it and if he says it happened any other way, He is a liar. I PAID $500 Cost breakdown * Part (purge valve): about $175–$220 * Labor: about $50–$120 (usually under 1 hour) So if you were quoted $500 for a purge valve, that was high But $500–$650 for a canister is actually normal So he charged me for the canister just like he quoted me for the canister. Not the purge valve He is a crook and a liar

They have always been great with my family and vehicles. Great to work with.
View on GoogleThroughout my previous visits, I have consistently experienced satisfactory service. The team has always been prompt in addressing my needs. Furthermore, when presenting a list of required tasks, they efficiently prioritize them based on urgency. For instance, today, my vehicle exhibited starting issues, and I was uncertain of the cause. Upon bringing it in for a diagnostic assessment, the issue was identified as a faulty battery, which was promptly replaced. I will always go to them with my business
