TM Engineering installed my oil pan. After I found it was leaking, he promised to redo it. He kept delaying and saying he is busy, this went on for a few months. After that, he completely stopped answering my emails.

Todd was a nice guy in person but his customer service is horrible. If he cannot deliver on his promises then he should not make them in the first place.

Needless to say I can't recommend doing business with him.

My last email to him, unanswered:

Todd, it has been 3 months since your last email. I have emailed you in between with no response. What’s the deal? I understand you are busy, and I have been trying to be patient, but you need to at least communicate with me.

I've had my vehicle worked on by Todd.
Sadly, I have to agree his customer service skills is truly his downfall.
It is what prevents me from taking my vehicle to him for service again. For me, I was leaving messages and stuck w/ no return phone call. I called to ensure my car was ready to be picked up on the day promised, but got nothing...

He may be busy, as he seems to be a one man shop. But his communication skills are horrible.
