I lost the primary key fob for my Toyota Tundra, and the dealership wanted over $600 to replace and program it. Luckily, I was referred to William at Ikos, who has the capability to reprogram the more modern, complicated Tundra key fobs. Though he offered a great price on a new key, I was able to bring in an older Tundra key and he reprogrammed it for a very fair price. He helped me as soon as I arrived and made sure everything worked and was good to go. Its hard to find good people like William, so I wanted to sing his praises. Well definitely be using Ikos again. Thank you, William!

Amazing! Wish I found these guys before I took my Car to the other mechanic because I was just charged a bunch of money and nothing got done in these guys got it done within a day and worked with me to get my vehicle back when I wasnt in town. Really appreciate the timeliness, responsiveness and Ability to do work that other mechanics wouldnt wanna do.

Mr. Iko has always done exceptional work on our vehicles. I first took my vehicle to him because I thought it needed a clutch. After his inspection, he called and told me it DID NOT need a clutch, but it did need other work. He explained to me what work needed to be done and the cost associated with each repair. He explained to me what he felt were the issues that needed immediate attention and what could wait. I made a decision and we went from there. I was very pleased. I have since taken two other vehicles to him for some extensive repairs and have not been disappointed. He provides a warranty on all work he does. One of the vehicles had a repair that kind of went bad, we contacted him, he looked at it, confirmed that it was a repair he had performed and fixed it. I highly recommend this business. They are skilled and just as important, they are honest. I won't take my vehicles anywhere else.

My oil filter was leaking oil all over my RV engine and pouring out. I was 100's of miles from home so I did a goggle search and they sent me to Iko's and thank goodness they did! William came out and took a quick look and was very calming and helped me not loose my mind! It ended up being a quick fix and he sent me off with direction to pick up more oil and what to do and check to make it home. I felt like a long time client and could not have been taken care of or treated better. Thank you William and Iko's!!!
