Dunc's Auto Repair

"Bought a boat motor from them off Facebook Marketplace that he even sent me videos of a good compression test, but when I got it mounted and tried to run it, it wouldn’t idle. Ended up needing a total rebuild at the tune of $1500. He told me they changed it out on his brother’s boat “for a bigger motor”, but his brother told me when he got there with the title that he “put the same sized one on”. I had already given him the cash and they had it loaded or I would have walked away from the deal. I should have probly demanded my money back right then, but hindsight is 20/20. Seemed like honest guys but ended up being crooks. I wouldn’t buy another thing from them or have them work on my vehicle because they literally patched the motor up enough to get a video of good compression and “didn’t have the controls there for it” to start it and let me see it run. Shameful and dishonest."

"Got me fixed up for a really fair price in a really short amount of time after I was stranded on the highway. Would definitely recommend."

"Again repair cost is a bit on the high side and wait times for repairs can be long. They do good work though."

"My daughter stopped in on her way home to Kansas City from college with a motor problem that was about to strand her. We were in a big pickle as my wife was in the hospital and I was not able to "rescue" my daughter. This was on a Friday afternoon and Chad dropped everything he was doing, diagnosed the problem, replaced the offending part and got my daughter back on the road in no time. This was a huge relief to me and my family. This was a classic situation where you think you're about to be taken advantage of (we thought the transmission was going out) and, low and behold, we were at the right place with the right people. I live in Kansas City but, after service like this, I'm half tempted to make the drive to Lamar for anything more than standard maintenance. I really appreciate Chad and would trust him with any of my vehicles. Very refreshing to know there are still people like this in the world!"

"This IS the best shop in Lamar. I've been everywhere before coming here and I will never go anywhere else. It's family run and they strive to help the community. Great people who do great work. They also work on diesel and gas vehicles so it's nice to know I can go to them for either one of my vehicles. I've had issues with a few other shops not actually doing the work they say they have and having to take it back and fight with them. I assume bc I am female they think idk better but I do. But I have never had to do that with C-Mac. Point is if you want anything fixed and you want it done right you should go here."
