This company is horrible! We called AAA because we had locked our keys in the car in the parking garage by the New Brunswick train station. After about a half hour we get a call from a guy from Edison Automotive asking for directions. We explain that we are in the parking garage. He continually repeats that we have to let him in. We explain again its not a building, its a parking garage. He hangs up on us. Nothing. Five minutes later I call back. He says hes not going to ask us again to let him up. I again explain its a parking garage. He yells at me that he has a flatbed and hangs up on me. A few minutes later a middle-aged African American man shows up with a few tools in his hand. When I ask if hes from AAA he says yes. When I ask him if he was the one I spoke to earlier he says "that doesnt matter". Except it does to a girl in an empty parking garage at 1am. He then takes forever to unlock the car, needing assistance from my fiance and continually setting the alarm off. When he finally gets it open, he just walks away. Not a word. So incredibly unprofessional and rude. I would never recommend a place that has employees that have a complete disregard for human decency.

I wouldnt recommend this repair shop to my worst enemy! Having grown up in the automotive repair business, I have seen the best and worst in mechanics. After having told the owner that I was working on a very limited budget and that dropping a ton of money into my 16 year old vehicle was not what I was looking for, he then proceeded to charge me $100 an hour( which is completely ridiculous in and of itself) on top of trying to diagnosis the problem through trial and error on my dime. After racking up over 5 hours worth of labor(and he said he knocked a few hours off the bill for me), he diagnosed the problem as a faulty O2 sensor, a problem that is easily recognized via an OBD1 adapter. Being of meager means and in desperate need of a vehicle to drive the 45+ miles to work, school, and then home each day, I was forced to pay the bill that ended up totalling more than $600!! AND TO TOP IT OFF THE VEHICLE BROKE DOWN A MONTH LATER WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! And were talking about a car that I paid $1200 for to begin with. DO NOT GO HERE!

Ive been looking for a mechanic and was fortunate to have Edison Automotive referred to me. I own a 98 Beetle and aside from the dealer, not too many people want to work on them. I called Edison Automotive at the end of the day on Monday, dropped the car off Tuesday morning, and picked it up on Wednesday (my choice). They diagnosed the problems, called me to discuss the work needed and gave me an estimate. I expected it to be higher. When I picked up the car, the cost was much less. They explained the work they did and we discussed some other work to be done in the future. I was impressed with their customer service and will absolutely return to them. I highly recommend them.

I have been to this place for oil change and some minor repair work. The person at the reception is always very nice. The advice he gave tells you the shop does not push you to have work done which is unnecessary. I recently called them up for a quote for some work on my car. The quote I got was much less than the dealers, like almost 40% less, and there is additional work included in that quote already, when the dealers has none. This place was first recommended to me by a friend. It has not disappointed me so far.

I have bring our fleet vehicles to Edison Automotive for years now and only same that he has been HONEST and fair with the pricing as well as the repairs. When you bring your vehicle in for one thing he wont try to up sell you on what you do not need. He will advise you of other issues that will need to be addressed soon.

Excellent service, friendly and accommodating and, most importantly, they are honest and reasonably-priced. I work right down the street, so many of us go to them and we all agree they do a great job.:)

I have had my brakes done, oil changed and electrical work at this shop. I dont go anywhere else now, the work is always done right and the level of trust keeps my mind at ease.

Mike and his staff treat me like a prince. Couldnt ask for better service or more knowledgeable techs. If I could, I would give more than 5 stars.
