Steve Campanale runs a modest one man garage in Worcester. He has been repairing our cars (Toyotas and Hondas) for almost 15 years. He is diligent, extremely capable, and unfailingly honest and reliable. If he says that your car will be ready by a certain time, you can count on it being ready by that time. He communicates clearly and allows the customer to make the decision about what to repair and how to repair it. He is especially good at diagnosis and he will offer the customer the most economical method of repair appropriate to the car. He will take care of your car; if he tells you that a belt needs to be changed in the next year or that you need new rotors on your brakes, you will do well to follow his advice. Steve's rates are very competitive; he never overcharges and generally doesn't charge for trivial fixes. On rare occasions he will refer a repair to a specialty garage if that repair is outside of his expertise.
The only point against Steve is that he may be booked up when you call and you may have to wait as much as a week for a non urgent repair. In my experience, however, it is always worth the wait to have Steve do the repair. read more
