This shop is the reincarnation of a decades old high quality neighborhood auto repair shop that…read moreoffered truly good work at reasonable prices. After being bought out when the owner retired, it would be natural to wonder what the new ownership would bring. The answer is an even better version that still kept the core competence and courtesy of the former owner's operation. Al is still there with more experience in repair than can be imagined; he did great work a while back on my '78 Eldorado and has always had an expert eye and a friendly honest manner. The waiting room has been completely revamped; the parking lot relined and reorganized. Phones are answered promptly; receipts and workorders have been revamped and upgraded. The new owner is friendly and very accommodating. I recently had an inspection due and he worked with me to fit it in around my schedule. Last year I had a 20 some year old Cadillac that was overheating, and there was some question about head gaskets vs. anything else. I brought it in and got an answer the very next day - head gaskets. No guessing, no "well maybe it's . . . . ". Xpert did a chemical test of the coolant, discovered the presence of hydrocarbons, , a 100% accurate indicator of a bad head gasket. There was no attempt to sell me one of the numerous "mechanic in a can, just add to the coolant" products that never work, and I was told very honestly that it would be a job with a repair bill about equal to the value of the car. Flat out honest advice delivered with respect and professionalism. That testing and evaluation cost me a mere $50, well worth it for the certainty it provided as to my path forward. At this point I cannot imagine a reason why I would bring my cars anywhere else for service.

Fortunately the person who did the damage was both honest and kind enough to leave a note which led to contact with their auto insurer. My auto mechanic recommended Auto Cosmetics and I am grateful. They analyzed the damage and provided a quote which Adam negotiated with the insurer to mutual satisfaction, truly a value added and In all ways they made me feel comfortable and cared for while the actual work was completed to perfection with my car looking new again.

I was obviously taken advantage of being i am a woman and that was completely WRONG. I am a single mother of two children and our safety comes first and obviously they were only thinking about the money and not our safety.
