They took to time to ask me to call them on this review... despite my experience of them not keeping in touch with me when they had my car, I still called to give them a chance. Not surprising that they never called me back. These people take no pride in their work, their name, or their business. Take your car to them at your own risk because if they make the situation worse there is zero chance of them resolving it. read more

Great old school service . Had transmission rebuilt in nov and car was feeling off. Nick spent along time analyzing the issue and took care of the issue which turned out not to be the transmission. They understood service. read more

I didn't provide any parts for said job, it was a full transmission rebuild. You guys gave me a leaky transmission pan, didn't repair the neutral safety issues, an atf hardliners you guys replaced had to be replaced less than a year later. You guys broke my foglight, parked my muffler tip on the curb. I never contacted you guys again because I don't trust your team. read more

When our GMC Acadia's transmission died, we needed a reliable transmission specialist to replace it. We called several transmission places but Nick was the quickest response and the best price. We are very happy with the results of his work. I highly recommend him as the best on the east end of Long Island. read more

Super Quick in-and-out smoke test. Easy going staff. Great price. Will definitely go back again for our other car!

Rebuilt Transmission, on my 2000 ford mercury cougar feels great. Helped deal with horrible online transmission retailer that sent the wrong transmission. Great guy, great work! Thanks again Dr. Nick! read more

We approached Dr. Nick's with a relatively complex and time sensitive issue, and the staff went out of their way to pull strings and double down on our needs and delivered quality service in a timeframe that was considerably faster than any other shop we contacted. Amazing, amazing crew over there, highly recommended. Thank you! read more

Nick is a honest businessman and will go above and beyond to make sure you, the customer, are happy. Nick has been a pleasure to do business with and his shop will honor their warranty and do what's needed to make repair right. read more

Had some issues with my car a few months ago, didn't know what to expect and Nick was so helpful. He was able to negotiate with me to something I can afford and him and everyone at the shop did a phenomenal job. Thank you for your help! read more

Amazing service for an amazing price. Nick and his team took on a difficult job and made it look easy! His staff is friendly helpful and knowledgeable they went above and beyond, took extra time to explain things in a courteous and professional manner. I'd highly recommend them. read more

I've been to Dr. Nick's several times with several cars and every time I've had a great experience. I am always treated with respect and all of my questions are answered. One time the noise I heard turned out to be an easy fix and instead of up selling me or taking advantage of someone who doesn't really know cars, Dr. Nick and his crew fixed the problem at a very reasonable rate. I always send my friends to this shop if they ever have a problem with their car. Highly recommended! read more

I could not be happier with my experience. Nick and his staff were courteous, knowledgeable, and responsive. I couldn't believe how fast they got the work done. True professionals. Complete rebuild of my transmission and drive shaft. Fair pricing and quality work with no games. I would highly recommend this shop. read more

I brought my car into this location with no appointment after calling them and seeing their ads online, I brought my car in to replace the gas tank. They got the job done within a day but unfortunately when I picked my car up not only did they break my gas gauge they dirtied the whole inside of my car and got black soot all over it. I had to call them back once I initially left and paid the $500 to tell them that my gas gauge was not working they told me to bring it back in so I brought it back in and turns out they actually needed to replace a fuel sensor, funny that they needed to replace the fuel sensor because it wasn't broken before they put the new gas tank in. I would highly recommend doing your research and taking Your car to another location. If you're getting your car fixed you shouldn't be picking it up paying money just to have something else be broken, what sense does that make, none. read more

I brought my car in for a transmission fluid change. I was told they could not do it without removal of pan and gaskets etc. I agreed to pay the additional fees associated with the removal of pan etc. My car had just about 70k miles on it at the time. With no leaks. After leaving I drove the car back there because I noticed a leak in my driveway that had never been there and it looked a lil red in color. I drove back to Dr Nicks and told them that something was leaking and was red in color like tranny fluid. They did not put the car even on the lift they just looked underneath it and advised me they wiped the bottom of car and I may see some drops for a few more days, since old fluid got on the bottom of engine cradle etc. I said ok and on my way I was. Well after another 1000 miles or so the leak has gotten worse so I brought the car to dealer for a possible oil leak somewhere. Well mechanics put car on lift and no engine oil but transmission oil all over tranny pan. They continued to show me 2 stripped bolts and 1 both cracked off just left into tranny. The leaks were coming from there. So three bolts have to be drilled out of tranny and another complete fluid change and gaskets. Now I am paying almost triple for a tranny fluid change since this Dr nicks tranny shop did a subpar job and did not fix what they broke. Come on guys use a torch on a frozen bolt and if you mess up repair it properly. I would have paid a few $ more if you were honest and explained you broke 3 bolts and had to drill them out and re tap 3 new ones to alleviate a nasty leak. It's not like the car was old or ratty it is a newer car. Customers beware go to dealer these guys are not honest. Nice customer service when I got there that old school pop and son feeling with a bad outcome not sure if you just hired a bad mechanic but I'm upset I'm out those funds. I won't be back :( read more

This business has withstood the test of time for a reason. Family feel and very trustworthy guys to deal with. Labor prices were very fair and the quality of work was great. read more

The clutch on my husband's little '98 pickup gave out while he was driving home from work recently. He usually handles his own repairs but this would be a big job and beyond his abilities. After checking for reviews online we decided to trust Dr. Nicks with the repairs. So glad we did! They rebuilt the entire clutch and his truck now shifts like it was new again. The gentleman that we dealt with was both professional and pleasant; the shop was clean and comfortable and they obviously know what they're doing. Overall a happy experience, and we can confidently recommend this shop to anyone needing transmission work. read more

Good shop, I had my clutch and flywheel replaced on my sports car here. My situation is probably different from most because I had the parts already and did a ton of research beforehand, I just needed someone to do the work. Nick is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced, and the price was fair. (I can't comment on the price for parts, but the labor time needed to do my job was as expected) read more
