MUST READ before going to Lavco... I was very excited to buy my first truck and came across an ad on craigslist that Brad (Lavco Owner) had put up. I called him to inquire about the vehicle and he explained that everything ran great the truck only has 69K original miles. When I arrived the truck actually had 79k, but it was still low miles. I agreed to purchase the truck and then he explained that I have to got to a third party to finish the transaction as he did not have a wholesale license. This cost almost $500 for a $2700 vehicle, which is not disclosed prior to me arriving at the third party location. After about a week of driving the truck, there was a check engine light. I checked it out and it was a cylinder misfire. Shortly there after the truck was running irregular. I took it back to Lavco and they explained it had a vacuum leak. I found out later this was just a loose vacuum hose and was an easy fix. They said it likely caused the cylinder misfire as well. About two weeks later, having driven only 700 miles since purchasing the truck, the motor was running so bad I couldn't even drive it. I took it back to Lavco and they opened up the motor and explained it needed to be rebuilt. I just bought the truck and it needs a rebuild? He wanted to charge me full parts and labor. This guy is a scam artist. He lures you in with attractive pricing on the vehicle and then when it falls apart he "offers to fix it for a price". Lavco has refused to refund my purchase or rectify the matter. Stay away from Brad and Lavco. Read the other reviews, there are more people than just me who have fallen into this scam. I am working to get the word before other become a victim as well.

Hands down a great automotive shop. Getting your car worked on is like getting cosmetic surgery done or finding a baby sitter - you definitely can't just go anywhere. The staff at LAVco are friendly, honest, and pretty quick on turnaround. I really appreciate how Brad tells you what you need done, rather than trying to sell the most expensive job. I've had everything done here - literally. Oil changes and trans services, I brought my car in when my windshield was shattered, got my brakes done, even had them install a new transmission. Oh - even when I was shopping for new tires, they got me a better deal then the quotes I found myself. I'm always comfortable going here and haven't had any problems in the last five years. Seems like there are a ton of regulars too, so that must say something. Definitely bring your car in, I did, and now my whole family does too :) The other reviewer is right too, that Brad is pretty darn cute...

I read all the other great reviews on here, and thought this place would be great. One of the mechanics here sells Crown Victorias, so trusting these reviews, I thought this mechanic would also sell cars in great shape....WRONG. I was told the car was in excellent condition, however...Air conditioning stopped working on my drive home. Driving at night, I quickly realized the lights didn't even work. Bought new lights, only to find out the wiring for the lights was bad...Check engine light came on next day. Needed new fuel injector and spark plug...Few days later, check engine light came on again. Needs new catalytic converter. Wow. Far from excellent! So, my words of advice are, do not purchase a car here, or you'll end up being a sucker like I was! Update: Car completely broke down and needs entire new head unit. Do not trust this dude

Been using Lavco for all the cars in my family for years now. The one thing I need from an auto mechanic is honesty. Whenever I take a vehicle or recommend Lavco to someone, we get the estimate call right away, work is done on time and the price is fair without the feeling that I’m being gouged. I’m sure we all have left the mechanic’s garage with that feeling that we’ve just been had. Not so with Lavco. Thanks Brad.
