If I could give this business, zero stars, I would. The reason why I say this is because I wasn't even a customer there and this guy was so beyond hostile towards me that I thought he was gonna attack me at one point. No, I am not over exaggerating, and please be aware of this guy and his business. I am new to the Hartford area. I moved from Nashville Tennessee. I always go to the smoke shop that's right next to his business to get my vapes and other items. Well, this particular visit of mine was the absolute worst. The owner of Elmo motors barged in and started screaming at the top of his lungs for me to move my car. He was belligerently cussing, and yelling, so loud that it startled me when he walked in. I went ahead, and I did let him know that I was extremely sorry that I was new to town, and I did not know that I was not allowed to park there. He proceeded to show no sympathy, and no care at all, and continue to cuss me and the business owners out. When I went to go move my car all of a sudden I had a flat tire. Weird, right? So I nicely ask him if he seen anything happen to my car because I just put air in my tires a handful of days prior. He proceeded to argue with me clap his hands in my face, cussing at me up and down, and was not helpful at all. What I was trying to imply was it was very weird that all the sudden I had a flat tire after he just became hostile with all of us. And let me not forget him threatening to tow my car when I was only parked there for 10 minutes. Also, remember I am not from town, so I was not aware that I could not park there in that parking lot. He could've came at me calmer, and things would've worked out way better and I actually would've put money in his pockets by having him assist me with my flat tire but instead he wanted to be a dickhead. Good luck to whoever goes to his shop. He's a fucking fraud. read more

Amazing service. Every time I come to his shop Ali always explains what the problem is and how it started, along with how to prevent it. Came here a total of three times and each time he provided me with the best service. I would come to him if I ever needed my car looked at. Recently I bought a new battery because Advance Auto Parts said mine was old. They also installed the new battery but I could tell the woman was a newbie and didn't know what she was doing. He actually looks into the car unlike Advance Auto Part, which just sells you products. Saved me from buying a new alternator. read more

Elmo Motors - The Shop - Hartford, Connecticut

Anyone reading this beware. These guys took in my car with a p03003 dtc code told me they replaced the coil for that cylinder and twenty miles later the same code came back. I believe all they did was reset the code but said they replaced a coil. Good luck to you if you bother to trust these guys. read more
