The owner, Chase, claimed that he legally could not let me drive my car away from his shop when I declined to have his shop replace the tie-rod ends on my car. I did some quick research, confirmed with Aurora PD and Arapahoe Co. Sheriff, and confronted him on the fact that there is no Colorado law that allows a repair shop to keep a vehicle because the shop owner feels the car is unsafe to drive, but he refused to back down - even going so far as to threaten to call his lawyer and an Aurora PD detective on me. I couldn't believe how he was acting, especially since his shop has so many good reviews, but maybe he was just having a bad day. Either way, this all started with him performing a diagnostic on my air conditioning where he found a few other problems I had not asked him to look at, so I have to give him credit for going above and beyond the work order. I would not direct any of my friends to this shop because of this experience.
