Summary: First off, let me say..

Review: First off, let me say that I'll never take our vehicles anywhere else! I took in my 98 Nissan Frontier with an engine check light that had been keeping me from passing smog. An outfit in oregon was just going to follow the diagnostic code from the computer and change the recommended parts which was going to come to around $1500.00. As I was about to head back to California, I put it off and eventually ended up at Made in America/Made in Japan. I spoke to Kevin the service Mngr and he said that they'd rather do a thorough diagnostic, rather than just replace the parts and not have it solve the problem. Aaron the tech started on the truck, and keep in mind this was a $230.00 diagnostic. 22.7 hours of labor later(all covered by the $230.00 diagnostic charge!) including calls to national expert help lines and 4 hours worth of trips to parts houses, they solved the mystery! It turns out a computer under the dash had somehow got water in it and shorted out part of the board. They reinstalled the new computer, and boom, fixed! It seems clear to me that other shops would've just installed what the diagnostic said to, which was wrong, and I'd still be dead in the water. Kevin the service manager joked that with all the time Aaron spent on this he could have installed 3 motors or did six timing belts! Seriously! These guys will have mine and my families business forever. Thanks guys!
