I went to J&J about getting my car inspected...the only shop that was friendly and helpful when I…read moresaid I needed walk in service if available. I got the inspection done today and the experience was great. Jay, one of the owners, welcomed me to the shop, very friendly. I sat in the waiting area after they started the inspection. There was another customer there and we started chatting. He couldn't praise the guys there enough. This other customer and I started lamenting how a lot of businesses don't provide the same customer experience we were use to from when we were younger (yes, bunch of old guys lamenting the world is going to...) and he said J&J is one of the exceptions. Jay showed me some additional concerns on my car...brake and tire wear. He showed me the problem areas and said I have some time left but these expenses are coming down the pike. It was refreshing to see this sales approach...I was aware he was upselling the other services they offer and I was totally happy with that...that's what all businesses must do. It was the approach, education, and showing me why the repairs would be needed that convinced me that when I need the work to be done, I will go to Jay and his team. Well done guys and keep it up! PS: they have the cutest wall of kids pictures that puts a smile on your face.

J & J has been doing my inspections for years. They're quick and friendly! Love this spot!read more

These guys are great, especially Brian. He's worked on my car many times in the past. Always with…read moreexcellent results. We were driving down to Hartsdale last weekend. On the way down, heard an odd sound coming from under the front of the car at highway speeds. Checked under the car and a panel under the engine that was loose. At higher speeds it fluttered up and down. I'm not a mechanic nor have a lift to get under the car. We were in the neighborhood a couple days later, and I brought the car over just to see what they could do. Although they're always busy, they had an empty bay, and put the car up on the lift. Brian explained it was the clips that hold the "belly pan" in place. He fixed it in about five minutes; and when I asked "how much?" his answer was i'm a good customer. There's no charge. I would highly recommend Brinkerhoff Service anyone, who needs quality work done.

I was comfortable enough in the waiting room and had access to WiFi so I could do some work. I used a coupon and my total was around $85. I was a bit surprised because I usually pay around $70 at other places, but they did use Euro grade because I have a cooper. My only other thing was that the technician who moved my car was smoking as he got into my car. He wasn't smoking in my car but the smoke got in there and I could smell it for the rest of the day. Otherwise, I was very satisfied and will be happy to come back. It's obvious that people coming in love coming here and respect the work done.

They ended up changing out the serpentine belt without our permission. Didn't call us to ask if we wanted certain work done to the car. So little to our surprise when we showed up to pick up the car he's showing us a bill that's $900. Mind you, we're local blue collar people. This bill was a serious blow to our household. Anyways, thinking that our car is "fixed" a week later our check engine light comes on and the car is making an awful squealing sound. I want everyone in Kingston to know that if you value your car, time, and money please don't go here. Because they will take advantage of you because they have no morals.

Not only have I personally had this experience with them (now three times) I've sat in the shop while they make phone calls back to their customers who are probably assuming that they're going to pay more for the repair than they actually do. Turns out to be a much simpler issue, easily rectified, than what the customer was expecting. Granted this was just my limited experience sitting in the shop waiting for my car to be done. But I've heard enough to feel comfortable recommending them to all my friends and family . These mechanics /shop owners are here to help take care of you and are looking at the long-term with your business, not making a buck in the short term. I highly recommend high end Auto

My sister is virtually home-bound, and had used this 20 year old workhorse Honda Element to go back and forth to medical care once a week. The loss of the car was traumatic - and she was finding this circumstance very challenging. Al and Rory were patient, understanding, compassionate, and extremely accommodating with her and then me. When I came to clean out the car before it was junked, I met them and they were every bit as sensitive and helpful as they had been on the phone. Although I've never had work done in their shop, their expertise and sensitivity to our situation makes me perfectly comfortable recommending them to those who need repairs and related automotive work. A rare find - and I am very grateful for their help.
