Dont go here unless youre willing to risk your life. I took my car here on recommendation. I left it for a few days to have everything checked out, as wed bought it recently and were having an issue with a leak. It was an older car, and granted, had 260 thousand miles on it. But, it ran well (despite the leak) and the engine was great. The brakes were strong and responsive - I had driven it all the way to CT and the far end of Long Island, without issue or concern. When I picked up the car, without them having actually fixed anything, they said to just fill the coolant and Id be fine. I got a few blocks away and realized the brake pedal was very soft, and I was having to pump the brakes to stop. I should have just turned around and gone back, but I continued home, thinking I would just get it parked and then figure it out. By the time I was half-way home, the brakes had gone out completely!! I pushed the brake pedal to the floor and nothing happened. Trying not to panic, I managed to get out of traffic, pull over and roll to a stop. I called the shop. His response? "I dont know what youre talking about - I didnt touch the brakes. Maybe you should pop the hood and see whats wrong." Because, I suppose, as a 30-something-year-old woman, I should know what to look for when your brakes go out. But, I dont. That was it. I could have caused a major accident when I wasnt able to stop the car. Someone could have been hurt. Killed. But, he left me on the side of the road with nothing more than that. Please dont go here.

Words cant express how happy I was with the see epic I got from here. Joe, the mechanic, went above and beyond the normal expectations of a repair shop and got me out of a serious jam. He helped me troubleshoot my check engine light issue successfully and inexpensively and even stored it for a few days while the parts came in so I wouldnt get more tickets for an overdue inspection. He saved me 100s of dollars in the end and I would definitely recommend taking your vehicle there if you have a check engine light issue or for anything

Putnam is definitely the best repair shop in the area. Ive taken my Jetta on several occasions and have found their service to be outstanding. Joe is VERY friendly and he will be clear with you about your options. You can be confident that you will never be overcharged here.
