Checkered Flag Automotive Repair 917 Southeast 15th Avenue, Cape Coral, FL 33990

"Horrible!! Nick is a theif. Nick will not stand behind his work. Warranty means nothing. He put an engine in one of 9 of my vehicles. Claims to be qualified... but far from it. He has no clue. And when it gets difficult- he runs. Avoid this business. Unless you want unprofessional bad service. And be taken.!! I am a 30+yr Cape Coral resident and hurricane shutter business owner with 12 employees and do over 2million a yr in business. I know what I am talking about. Avoid this place!.......nice response. Except you forgot it was never right after you touched it!!! And you never cared to make it right!!!"

"I've been going to Checkered Flag for over 10 years. He was recommended to me when a dealership was trying to rip me off for$900 for an electrical harness. I towed it to Nick and paid$70 as it turned out to be a corrosion issue. I've been going to him every since. I'm still driving the same vehicle as he has kept me on the road. From rebuilding my hydraulics on my convertible top to just about everything else. I've since moved to Naples but still make the drive because I just don't trust anyone else. Thanks Nick for repeatedly being my Hero!"

"This shop did my LS Swap in my 93 Jimmy. They did such a great job. They worked with me on payment. I can't say enough good things about this place. if you want your car fixed right I wouldn't take it anywhere else."

"Stay away from Checked Flag in Cape Coral Florida NICK, the owner doesn't guarantee his work nor did he put his work into my car (Master cylinder), but charged me $300 for something he didn't do. Got a new one from Sam Galloway Dealership Service. Great Job there. I'm disputing and Fraud charges. So a heads-up stay away checkered flag and Cape Coral Island Road. I thank God everyday for Sam Galloway service Department because I've been going there since the year 2000 for big things but I use Nick over the last 4 years for small stuff which he was good at except for a fuel line he did under the vehicle with a fuel line he replaced it but I don't know if he replace it because the next day there was gas all over my driveway and then I had it towed to Sam Galloway they redid that as well that was about I don't know 6 years ago. But this is the first time I see Nick's character when I left the car there waited two days. when Luke called and said the car was done only to find out it wasn't. I paid them unknowing they didn't touch my car. So they willingly swiped my card knowing their fraud...and when I told him I was coming on Monday cuz it was already after 5 on Friday. So I called on Monday at noon to let him know I was coming between 12:30 or 1:30 but he was a coward and left before I got there and then rude rude rude Luke his son very rude (you should not be in the public business if you can't handle the pressure). He acts as if he's so important when all he is is fat and ugly and not important at all. So he said because I was late his father couldn't wait.. really? Very upsetting knowing that this is the third trip and his father knew on Friday that I'd be there on Monday so he shouldn't have made any plans to leave until I got there. What a bunch of hypocrites. Anyway thank God for Sam Galloway it was much cheaper if you need a master cylinder Sam Galloway was $89 plus $100 in labor so it was $189.00. and they also notice that I need a new alternator which was $300. But Nick overcharging by $200 and I find that amazing since I've been going there for almost 5 years never again."

"Well worth the drive. I went to Quality Care in Fort Myers and spent over thousand dollars and they replaced my rack and pinion but it was defective and it leaked. I went back to them and they said must be a transmission leak then they sent me to a transmission company and they said no it wasn't it was probably a power steering leak went back to quality care and they didn't have time to fix it. Was referred to Checkered and I drove up and they immediately put me up on a lift and within two minutes diagnosed it as a defective rack and pinion and put a solution that might solve the problem on its own and didn't charge me a penny. So I'm going back to Qualitiy Care to see if it's under warranty. If not I'm going back to checkered and will always go there for all my auto repairs"
