I only wish I could give Steve and Montvale Auto Tech more than 5 stars! What makes Montvale Auto…read moreTech so worthy of more than 5 stars? In short, everything about the experience. Steve is a very talented mechanic, incredibly responsive, completely honest in his assessment of what work your car needs, and absolutely more than fair in his pricing! If you want more details, read on. I called because my brakes have been making a terrible noise. This noise had gone on for longer than I'd like to admit. Still, I didn't know where to take my car, especially as I have had several bad experiences with dealerships that performed unnecessary work at a very inflated price. When I read Steve's reviews, I decided to make an appointment. He immediately identified the problem, keeping me in the loop by texting me photos and describing what he had found. When I went to pick up my car, I was secretly holding my breath, trying not to obsess about what this would cost. There was no need to worry, as Steve's prices are more than fair. I have paid far more for smaller problems at other establishments. And, finally, he is a really nice person who is a pleasure to work with! I have been so stressed about my car issues, and I am so thrilled to have found a place to take my car where I have absolute faith in the quality of the work and the honesty of the owner!

He has worked on all of our cars. Sometimes the shop is overburdened with job and it might be hard to make an appointment, but this reflects his loyal customer base. Much to his credit, Steve has regularly counseled us out of making unnecessary or overly expensive repairs. He will regularly try to find ways to make this repair less costly. He is also honest about how much life a car or a particular part might have left in it. I trust him at his word. Posca Service Center is a good place to get your car worked on. I recommend their work highly.

So how will that help me? Rude, dismissive, and unhelpful for something incredibly simple if you can bend to do it.

Best Mechanic Experience of My Life - No Contest…read more If I could give 10 stars, I would. I brought my car to Dapper Auto in Park Ridge, NJ, and from the moment I walked in, I knew I was in good hands. John, the owner, is hands-down the most knowledgeable and experienced mechanic I have ever met. He took the time to explain exactly what was going on with my car in a way that actually made sense (no confusing jargon, no pressure, no upselling). What really sets this place apart is John himself. He's not only incredibly skilled, but he's also funny, easygoing, and genuinely cares about his customers. You can tell he takes pride in his work and treats every car like it's his own. It's rare to find someone so honest and transparent in this industry. And yes, let's just say it doesn't hurt that he's easy on the eyes either -- but more importantly, he backs it up with talent and integrity. My car has never run better. Fair pricing, fast turnaround, top-tier expertise, and an all-around great experience. I won't trust my car with anyone else again. If you're anywhere near Park Ridge, do yourself a favor and go to Dapper Auto. John is truly the greatest mechanic ever. Highly, highly recommend!
