On 11/21/2023 R. Jones had this to say:
I have a 2017 Tahoe that needed a new engine. After it was installed it still would not run. Joe and Matt went above and beyond figuring out the issue and solving it. I hate to say it but those guys probably aged 10 years trying to figure out the problem but they got it done and now my truck runs better than brand new. I highly recommend taking you vehicle to Gombosi. Thanks again Joe and Matt you guys rock. Testimonial written by R. Jones on this site.

Joe replaced the brake system in a car I have owned for 48 years. It was a big job with every frozen bolt and cracked part you could imagine in a car that old. The brake now work beautifully and I can enjoy the ride!
