On Thursday, 10/10/13, on my way to a doctors appointment 20 miles away the warning sign that one or more of my tires was low on air came on my dashboard. As this had happened the night before and the terrific guy at my regular garage had pumped air into and told me to keep an eye on it, I proceeded again to the garage had the nearly-flat problem tire confirmed as having a nail. After pumping more air into it, the folks at my garage told me they could not look at the tire or fix it until Monday, 10/14/13, at the earliest! And, as the Sears Automotive Center, where I purchased the tire, was too far to risk driving -- even though the tire was under warranty -- and I did not want to spend my day waiting hours for service, nor did I want to switch out the tire for my spare unnecessarily. Then I recalled that my daughters boyfriend recently recommended Hudson View Automotive Services to her. I called and left a voicemail message, which was returned promptly by Adam, the proprietor. After cautioning me about possibly negating my warranty (at that point I didnt care), he said to come right over. Twenty minutes and $20 later, the nail had been removed, the tire had been plugged and I was on my way! Local businesses are all about serving the customer courteously, promptly and reassuringly. Adam and his Hudson View Automotive Services staff obviously get that, big time! Im so glad I found them! And, oh yes, as I was getting into my car -- which was turned around and pointed the right way to exit easily -- a mechanic waved cheerfully at me! The whole experience -- which could have ruined my day and elevated my blood pressure -- put a huge smile on my face and made me feel appreciated and appreciative. You can be sure Ill be back the next time my car needs servicing! What a treasure this place is!

I am new to the area and was recommended to use Hudson View by someone I trust but who may not be a careful consumer. Another recommendation came from a customer with persistent repair problems on their Prius. He suspects nothing about a persistent repair on a notoriously reliable car. Neither would I, but...my experience has left me feeling "nicked". Very nice place and no complaints about the quality of parts. I bought a new battery and had routine maintenance on separate visits. Today I found that the tires were expensive. I paid $500 a few years ago and was satisfied. I requested another set and was informed that they were discontinued. Adam recommended a $600 set. I balked at the price increase and was reassured that the cost included everything associated with installation. When I picked up the car, my $600 set of tires cost $700 because of alignment. It is hard to imagine installation without alignment. I brought it up and was assured that alignment is essential, and did not argue. I did not bargain except to mention that last time, tires cost $500 and this time $600. Maybe a few years and possibly better tires, but the extra lift to $700 smarts a bit. It made me recall that we had my wifes oil change and got upgraded to more expensive synthetic oil. Much more expensive.

Croton is so lucky to have such a honest and professional repair shop. I have an older Porsche 928. You can purchase them pretty cheap but they are VERY expensive to maintain. After we purchased it, we brought it to the area Porsche "expert" in Elmsford (brags about working on Seinfelds Porsches). We had concerns with rough shifting and loss of power and just wanted it checked out. After the "Jerry" expert in Elmsford serviced it, we were presented with a $2,200 bill. When we drove off, the car had the same problems as the original issues were not addressed. Finally, after family recommendations, we brought it to Adam to have it checked out again. Glad we did! We just picked it up tonight and now its a totally different car! It runs and shifts the way the factory intended. Thanks Adam for being honest, fair and above all good at what you do. NOTE TO OTHERS: If you have a car that needs service in Westchester, you wont go wrong bringing it to Hudson View Automotive! See you at the next scheduled maintenance Adam! Thanks again.
