Withholding Documentation: They scanned my vehicle's data and checked my mileage but refused to provide me with the standard intake ticket given to all other arriving drivers. 50K MAINTENANCE for my perfectly running Toyota is 1.5 hours per the dealership. NOT 'HALF TO A FULL DAY'. That's an ER visit for a human. In Connecticut, automotive businesses must legally provide a written repair or estimate before performing work, and treating a senior consumer unfairly regarding waiting accommodations can be reported directly as an official dealership business violation I asked the shop if I could wait when I made my appointment the week before and was told yes. What a miserable waste of time traveling to and from for ridiculous gaslighting and mistreatment. Two seats almost connected in front of an intake station and there was a loudly talkative man seated in one - guess he wasn't told minor routine maintenance would take all day.

I've never had to get my own car serviced and repaired before so I wanted to know that I was in good hands. I went on facebook and asked the harbor point group what people recommended for auto repair and the great reviews of scottys caught my eye. I called up scottys and they let me know they were booked for the next 2 days (it was the first) but they said to drop it off and that they would do their best to look at it beforehand. sure enough I got a call the next day with a breakdown of what needed to be done. They gave me an estimate which was HALF WHAT THE JEEP DEALER QUOTED US, plus it didnt include some of the nonsensical stuff they suggested to fix that scottys said did not need to be done. ultimately they were able to get everything done before we headed out for vacation. when I went to go pick it up, they had admitted there was a communication error and that it wasnt ready just yet and that it would be another hour or so. I mentioned that I had just took an uber and had a lot of other things to try to work on and to see if they could try to give me an accurate time estimate. the guy there (isaac i think) just handed me a set of keys and said heres a loaner ill call you! that alone made this a 6 star experience! talk about admitting to a mistake and making up for it with phenomenal service. anywho, i know where ill be getting my oil changed moving forward! thank you guys!

After telling me they were going to waive the diagnosis fee, they took three hours to diagnose the problem and falsely told me I needed to get multiple different things replaced, costing over $2800. After telling them I was going to try and get a 2nd opinion, they charged me $180+ just for the diagnosis. I am now getting it fixed at another place for less than $1000. These guys are thieves!

My wife went in a couple of years ago for snow tires, and a general checkout of her car, as our…read moremechanic of many years retired. She had an extremely positive experience- Tony is always direct and honest with us. Always nice, and with a dry sense of humor. I've had several occasions, where thought I've felt or heard issues with the cars- and unlike so many other mechanics, Tony will politely explain the problem (or lack thereof!) and whether or not the vehicle even needs anything. We have both subsequently been to Shippan a number of times, for various amounts of work, including a clutch on my wife's Subaru, and Tony has been consistent with quality of workmanship. No job too big or too small. For me, the most emblematic occurrence of why I will continue to use Shippan's services, was one time, the tire prices weren't a mega value (on the specific tire I wanted), but even though they were not particularly overpriced, Tony still said something along the lines of "I probably can't get the best price on these." I gladly paid the minimal difference from some chain business, where I'd have been dealing with a new person, each time I called. Another huge good sign (at least for me) is beings told that I don't need to get (whatever service) done yet, despite it being lucrative for the business. Just simple integrity-and not treating customers like an annoyance. We look forward to continue having our cars serviced at Shippan! At least as much as one can look forward to servicing vehicles at all. To Tony, and the team at Shippan- Keep up the great work! I highly recommend giving them a try, if you need a new mechanic.
