Complete con artist. First, I brought my first car in for a break pad and rotor replacement for the front two wheels because i wore it down to the metal. I brought in the parts, they did the labor, it was done all fair and square. I totaled that car some months later. I brought in a different car that had some years on it for a state inspection. He made a big fuss about how the capiler was seized and giving friction to the front left wheel. He was very demonstrative about it. The car is on the lift, he says "Here, roll the back tire." I did. "See how it turns easily? Now roll the front tire." I turn the front, it is ever so slightly harder to turn, but no big deal. That was his big show and tell demonstration. He was ready to hike me up $700. Turns out when i get a second opinion with a phone call, since front wheels are pad breaks and rear wheels are drum breaks, the slight difference is expected. I went to a different mechanic, passed state inspection without a hitch. To add to just how self-centered this guy is, I brought my two little daughters with me and when I arrive he tells me to hurry up, time is money. So I hustle to get the stroller out and the kids. I mention that my previous car was totaled, and this was a different car, because he wanted to look up my reference by name since I was there before. $37 later with a "failed" test, I am about to leave, I ask him for the laundry list of things he found wrong with the car. He tells me that they are HIS notes, and that "We are done here." Yup, right you are we are done here forever. I give this guy a 10/10 for most rotten, lying, manipulative, mechanic Ive ever known. Complete shame to the human race.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SHOP I wasted a couple hours of my life with these scumbags yesterday. Both the 330 and the E46 M3 need an alignment. I originally made an appointment for both Saturday morning but upon second thought decided to not take the M3 and just take the 330. Unfortunately, Ive taken my cars to enough scumbags to first try them out on the 330. Good thing I did. The guy quoted the typical 89.95 on the phone. I bring the car in and confirm the price. The guy says its 89.95 but it depends on how the car is, because BMWs are full of problems and tricky. He also says I can come back at 1200 to pick it up, but I tell him I will stay and watch. I notice their awesome Hunter machine and relax a bit as it looks pretty damn cool. I wait 30 min for them to set stuff up and then the guy comes out to me with a printout. Before getting close he hollers out this is a disaster. This will be 200-250. I look at the print out front camber: -1.3 -1.4 front toe: 0.00 0.05 rear camber -2.2 -1.9 rear toe 0.15 0.28 So, I tell him the front camber is perfectly fine, the front toe is pretty good too. The only thing that needs adjusting is the rear camber and toe The guy says its $150-$200 to do the rear. I tell him that is ridiculous, that this is just turning a few bolts. He says that is what it costs, but that he can take the car down if I dont agree. According to him, BMWs (on stock suspension and tires) need a race car alignment. Because racecar bro! please avoid these people like the plague.

Sad excuse for a repair shop. I went there because when I was on a road trip to MA; I realized that my tire was balding. So I stopped there to get my tire repaired or replaced. It was the closest place on the way there. Discount tires? ha. $40 per tire plus $80 labor. WHAT A RIP OFF!! I have a place on long island that I couldve gotten the tire for $40 flat. They seem very unreliable and a bunch of scam artists. I seen a church lady go in there expecting to pay about $200, he then decided to tell her that " I seen that there was more problems with your car after I received it" & her bill went up to $800. Like are you serious? You really shouldnt go there if you dont know much about cars. Because then they will really rip you off. I will never go there again & I would advise you to do the same. As far was the people that gave this place a good review, You probably go ripped off and didnt realize it. I relied on the reviews of this place before I went and Im so sorry I ever came. So dont always rely on what other people say. THANKS FOR RIPPING ME OFF.

Im been there for a nail in my tire. "No Pb we can fixe it!" At the afternoon in fact "no we cant fixe it and your other tire are not good too" ( 2 news tires). I was very busy and need my car so... Ok change it! Result: Around $700, 2 differents brand of pair of tires and big problems of shaking and vibrations in the steeling after balance and alignment!!!! I go back there and talk about the skanking and the vibrations but no more polit and nice like its not our pb anymore or that should be your wheels and of course we can do that... Arround the same price of the 2 tires! So Im going to the brand car dealer where I bought my car and... Verdict: BAD WORK! BAD CHOISE OF TIRES (should have 4 same tires OF THE SAME BRAND) and cause that shaking and vibration! Now I must buy 2 new tires and maybe paid more because new damage with the shaking. For this type of car (mine) a REAL PROFESSIONAL know to do not mixe 2 types of tires and get the good brand, MAKE A GOOD WORK and ADMIT and APOLOGIZE for his MISTAKE!

to start, the reviewer by the name of joe ind is actually the owner of this shop. hes a liar and is falsely impersonating a customer. Obviously these guys are crooks. ive gone there 2 times and they charged me for the exact same work on the second visit as they did the first visit. when i questioned the guy behind the counter, he became indignant and unprofessional, attempting to explain while making me out to be a fool. they are dishonest, and i absolutely believe they sabotaged my car. going there was a real mistake. avoid this place at all costs. i currently am experiencing issues which i strongly believe are related to the brake work they did for me. i will try and update this post upon confirmation of my hunch.

I called around 11:40ish am and asked if they did wheel alignments and the guy said "Yeah, but after lunch. If youre gonna come, dont come till after 1." I was like oh... oookay. Now I wasnt in a rush but that response just put me off. After reading reviews here on google Im so glad they turned me away to go eat. I went to another shop and got it done for 89 bucks (Central Tire & Auto Repair). Not to mention it was an 84 rabbit that had been sitting for years. The alignment was way out of whack and so were the wheels but they fixed it and still.. 89 bucks. No questions, no harrassment, no made up (or true in my case) stories about what needs attention right away. See you never.
