I took my car to Manhattan Chrysler for a brake and rotor change and the estimate was $761.00 + TAX! Yea right!! Then I took it to Mobil on 133rd street and they charged me around $400 and told me I need to replace my brake calipers which would cost a lot! I was so frustrated and came upon Prestige Transmission which was up the block from Mobil. I met Lou who is really funny and straight forward. He test drove the car and told me I definitely need new brake rotors and pads as a groaning noise was heard when he braked. He ordered me top quality Monroe Ceramic brake pads and very good rotors, all sealed up!(My previous mechanic in Queens 3 years ago switched the pads and rotors I paid for to a crappy kind. Luckily I caught him so please be sure to check your pads and rotors when being changed). After replacing the pads and rotors, I asked Lou what about the caliper and he laughed and told me my caliper was perfectly fine. I then asked him about the wheel bearing and he told me that was fine to and for me to stop finding ways to spend money. However, he did tell my steering fluid was leaking and to take it to the dealer since it is covered under warranty. All in all, total came out to 320 plus tax and the car is perfectly amazing! Lou is a great person and very helpful and I will definitely come back here again. Thanks so much Lou for great service!

Good Afternoon, I came across this shop on the internet. I needed an oil change, so I called and ask if an appointment was needed, I was told no appointment needed & the shop closes @ 5, I asked if I could bring the vehicle after I got off work @ 4:30, Mike stated “Come & well see what we can do". I decided I would go on lunch & leave vehicle. I arrived & gave some info of other concerns I had. After work when I went to pick up the vehicle, Mike gave me a very detailed reason I was having the other issue, & he repaired the issue & even gave me a visual demonstration. I tried to leave a tip, he refused & only charged for the oil change. Mike stated no appt is needed if I had any other issues, just bring the vehicle back. I found Mike & Nevar to be very professional, courteous, & helpful. No more going to Brooklyn, I have found my new mechanic!!! Thank you again Mike & Nevar.

I came for annual inspection and was admitted on the spot. The mechanic found that both bulbs of my rear plate number were not working (probably after a bump from the rear that I received at a stop sign a few weeks ago). I agreed to change them. I got "passed" for the inspection and a bill for just the cost of the bulbs (on top of the standard inspection fee). No charges for the labor, although the mechanic had to remove the license plate in order to get to the bulbs and then put it back – about 10 min work. The mechanic and the receptions were very courteous. The place was clean and even a coffee machine for the customers in the waiting room. I was extremely pleased with the service. Highly recommended!

Id never been to a mechanic that told me the parts he inspected were working fine and didnt need to be replaced, and that he wasnt going to charge me anything. I have now. These folks were friendly and honest and easy to communicate with. Im impressed. [More recently, I asked Prestige to check the right front tie rod on my aging Dodge Grand Caravan which an inspector thought might be loose. Mike had the car up on the lift immediately, and about ten minutes later showed me that everything was fine and sent me on my way. No charge, and the whole thing took less than twenty minutes. Amazing. Just the fact that Im posting this is amazing. I never write reviews.]

I have been using Prestige Automotive for more than 20 years, originally a referral by BOYNTON Body Shop (W 101st St, also excellent). Prestige keeps my now 13 year old Saab running smoothly and did the same for the prior 12 year old model. They are very friendly, professional and do great work, always with a very fair price. Like in a lot of other repair shops, at Prestige Im never afraid of being ripped off. They are very honest - rare to find in the car business - and go out of their way to accommodate their customers finding even rare parts.

I had driven my daughter back to Harlem from New Hampshire. While in NYC, one of the tires on my car developed a slow leak. I was facing the thought of driving 300+ miles back to NH the next day on the donut spare tire or trying to get the tired fixed before heading back. At 3:30PM I drove down to Prestige and asked if they would be able to take a look at the time. Within half an hour, they had gotten the car in, found a small hole, plugged it and charged an unbelievably low price. Pleasant, courteous, and honest service.

I had a great experience with Prestige Automotive recently. They did a great job of keeping me informed about the status of the cars repairs and even though it was clear that they are quite popular they were still able to get my car in and out very quickly. Having picked the car up today, everything seems to be in perfect working order. They also repaired exactly what needed to be done and did not try to stick me with a bunch of other unnecessary stuff. I couldnt be more pleased! Would highly recommend!

Great, honest repair shop. I had a safety/emission inspection done at a different garage (2000 Auto Electric), which claimed I needed new control arms. I took the car to Prestige to get a quote for the work and they determined that the other shops claims were fraudulent. Prestige quickly performed a re-inspection, I got my money back from the other shop and I havent had any issues with the car since. I will be going back to Prestige.

I am the kind of person who knows absolutely nothing about cars and as a result I am very uncomfortable in car shops. My car, badly hit while parked, was towed by Prestige. From the moment I walked in to Lous shop I knew that all would be OK. As mentioned in previous reviews, the place is surprisingly clean and organized. Lou is extremely knowledgeable, able and kind. I knew I was in good hands and for that I am extremely grateful.

Called the morning of and took me in immediately. Wiper blades were working inconsistently working and the staff fixed it quickly (loose wire connection to motor). Put on a great show for me while I waited (though ruined by another client who chose to have a phone conservation on speaker right next to me). He didnt charge me and wouldnt even accept any tips. Amazing service, almost unreal. Would absolutely return! Thank you so much!
