I've FINALLY found a new auto mechanic whom I can trust to not take me for a ride; in the…read morefigurative sense, not the literal sense. Thankfully, I haven't had much reason to visit a mechanic in a few years but of course, these lucky streaks don't last forever; my 2006 Mazda was making some loud noise when I turned and I was told that it was a wheel bearing by a friend. Also, reaching speeds of 65 mph or greater, my car/steering wheel begins to shake and pull to the left... plus I figured with the mileage (87K) I probably needed a tune-up. Jimmy was great with calling me and keeping me up to date with everything he was going to do, before he was going to do it. After he assessed that it was, in fact, the passenger side wheel bearing that needed to be replaced, he quoted me full price with parts, labor and tax to make sure I was comfortable with it. He also told me he'd check to see if I truly needed a tune-up before doing one and that he'd let me know before he did any further work; it turns out that I didn't need a tune up and won't for at least another 20k miles or so. He was very transparent in the fact that yes, I did need an alignment but more importantly, I need 4 new tires so he suggested I not do the alignment and just get the new tires before the winter time which would take care of all of the issues I'm seeing with the pulling and shaking. Folks, you won't find honesty like this with a mechanic all that often, trust me... I've done the leg work. He was very friendly, quick and efficient. I will FOR SURE be bringing my car back to Jimmy for any future service needs I have.

I paid over $2,000 for a new exhaust and sensor. Today is February 15th, 2024, not even a year ago.

We started going to Hassells on the recommendation of a close family friend. Once we bought our…read morekids their "first cars," we needed someone reliable and fair, as used cars undoubtedly will need attention and repair. We have found this in Hassells. At times, there have been multiple repairs that have to be made, and they are amazing at prioritizing the order of repairs for us. The shop itself is no frills, efficient, and we have had no issues at all with customer service. We have always left feeling like we got a great deal on parts and work performed. They have a cool computer system that will list the work needed, and you can accept or decline through text. Additionally, the repairs have always been completed in the specified time frame, and as far as I can tell, it is pretty quick. We have had cars inspected there as well. If you are looking for a fair, reasonably priced mechanic, give Hassells a try!

Everyone was not only charging me an arm and a leg, they also had mediocre reviews and their customer service on the phone was lacking. Then I got a hold of Hartford Muffler and Brake.

I found a shop that is a not only a master of his craft, worked with me with a reasonable price but also made room for me on his busy schedule.

Not only did Bill at Mancini's $449 to repair my car which they did not but, when I went back to the station (Bill said any problems just come back) he misdiagnosed my car and broke the foot long piece that adjusts the seat and failed to tell me.
