    Buddy's was professional and had my car back when they said it would be. Best auto mechanic I have used in Harford County

    I've taken my car here three different times, and each experience has reinforced how impressed I am…read morewith both the quality of their work and their integrity. The first time, my check engine light came on. They couldn't fit me in for a full appointment for a few weeks, but they still had me bring the car in to run a diagnostic and make sure it was safe to drive. After checking it out, they told me they believed it simply needed an oil change. They didn't charge me anything for the diagnostic, and they were right--once I got the oil changed, the check engine light never came back. The second time, I brought my car in for a different issue. They were thorough, completed the work in a timely manner, and charged a fair price. About a month later, I started experiencing similar symptoms again, so I brought it back. They dug a little deeper and discovered a nest inside the system that was blocking the drain. They spent over an hour fixing the problem, getting completely soaked in the process. When it was time to pay, they told me there was no charge because they considered it related to the previous repair. I can't say enough good things about this company. It's rare to find a business that combines excellent workmanship with this level of honesty and customer service. They've earned my trust, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

    Great service, reasonably priced, family owned and they treat you like that…read more Years of experience all in one place. If you aren't going here for your auto repair needs you are wasting your time and money.

    Went in for MD state inspection with 2023 Subaru since i was moved back from another state. They…read morefailed me the first time for a few minor things as well as for being lowered since im on coilovers. I corrected all items and raised the car back up to factory height (which anybody that has performed this knows how time consuming this can be). When I returned for the re-inspection they failed it again this time stating I cannot have any aftermarket suspension components on the car per COMAR which is completely incorrect. Article 11.14.2. Look it up. I took time off work for both appointments only to waste my time here. Should have been a red flag when they charged me $40 to put blocks of wood on their ramp lift because it was "too low" even though it was only 1" lower than stock. Mechanic just jumped in with no protective cover for the seat too. Complete waste dont bother with these guys, especially if your car is modified in any way. They couldnt even be up front about why it "failed" the first time with a vague answer and barely any detail. AVOID these guys, just go anywhere else

I received brake services and he made sure to educate me on the do's and don'ts with my new break. And also gave me future suggestions. I will most definitely be using these services again.

    We've been bringing our cars here for a couple of years, and have always been happy with the…read moreservice here. They can usually take our car right away, the work is always done quickly and for a reasonable price. A couple of years ago, I brought my van in because I thought it needed a tune up (sometimes, on damp mornings it would have trouble starting). I got a call from them, saying that to change the spark plugs they would have to take the whole engine apart, and it would likely cost over $200, and the spark plugs didn't look like they needed changing, so what did I want them to do. I told them not to do it if they didn't think it was necessary. More recently, we took in my husband's car with a flat tire, and rather than trying to sell us new tires we didn't need, they patched the flat for $15. They are super honest and the price is always fair-far cheaper than anyplace else we've ever taken our cars (and less than half of what the dealership costs). They are a great family business and we're so glad we've found them. We won't take our cars anywhere else.

    Recently I thought my car's transmission was in need of repair. I took it to a supposedly reputable…read moretransmission place in Essex and was told that I indeed needed a rebuilt transmission, and that I also needed work done on my mass air flow sensor. The total? 2500+ for just the transmission. After taking my car to Performance Lube and Tune, they assured me that I did not need a transmission after all, simply a service, and they also repaired my air sensor. The total for these repairs was roughly $450. Don't let the shop's appearance fool you, the mechanics at Performance will not screw you over. After being tricked by dishonest mechanics before, I wouldn't take my car anywhere else.
