About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Lam’s Complete Auto Repair with an unusual package. As he unloaded it from his truck, he noticed something odd—a small, dusty box labeled ‘Free Oil Change’ had appeared on the backseat of his car overnight. Curious, the delivery driver took the box inside and found not just one but ten free oil changes worth hundreds of dollars. Later that day, as he drove away, another small box materialized in his mailbox—this time containing a handwritten note saying, ‘Thanks for choosing us! Keep your engine purring.’

2. One day, while waiting for his car to be fixed, a regular noticed something odd. ‘Hey,’ he said aloud, pointing towards the workshop door, ‘I swear I saw that mechanic talking to himself in Russian!’ Another customer, a delivery driver, overheard and leaned in curiously. 'Wait,' she whispered, 'isn’t that Russian slang for “Your engine’s acting up”?' The regular laughed, shaking his head. ‘Nah, probably just Lam trying out his new language app.’ They both shrugged it off as nothing—until next week when they spotted him whispering again, this time in perfect English.

3. While waiting for his car to be fixed, a regular overheard the mechanic muttering under his breath, ‘Lamb’s always late.’ A delivery driver, growing impatient, leaned on the door and quipped, 'Late again, huh?' The mechanic looked up sheepishly and replied, 'Not my fault—your engine was in such deep water!'

4. One afternoon, as customers waited patiently in Lam’s Complete Auto Repair, the radio crackled to life with an urgent announcement: ‘Attention all drivers—your brakes are talking!’ A regular customer, who’d just dropped off his car for routine maintenance, looked up curiously. The mechanic shrugged and said, 'Don’t worry, they’re just brake pads singing their last song.' Everyone laughed, realizing it was probably just some old machinery making noise. As the day ended, a delivery driver walked in, puzzled but amused by the story.
