He headed to it back to my house. Not okay. Very upset. Very not professional. I will never recommend this horrible company

I was looking online at a car for sale at a local GJ dealership. After a call to an another shop,…read morethey referred me to Hunter @ Antonellli's for a long distance pre-purchase inspection. I had an outstanding experience! Communication was clear, Hunter was flexible, and prompt, in getting the car in and inspected for me! He was always kind and also quite thorough. I felt confident about the condition of the car (especially since they specialize in keeping high mileage cars, like I drive, going and going well!) and my $165 was well spent! Thanks, Hunter, and Antonelli's!!!

I brought a Subaru Impreza to this shop in June 2026 to diagnose the cause of recurring oil drips…read morecoming from the engine/transmission area. The Antonelli's mechanic who inspected the car concluded that these drips were coming from a bad oil plug gasket, and coolant leaking from a "melted radiator" that would cost roughly $3,000 to replace. I authorized the mechanic to change the oil plug gasket and do an accompanying oil change (which they mishandled by overfilling the oil level), and then took the car to the local Subaru dealership. The Subaru dealership mechanic quickly traced the oil leaks to bad gaskets on the transmission check plug which cost $100 to fix. The radiator was perfectly fine. The dealership mechanic was at a loss as to how someone could have recommended replacing it. And the best part - oil was still seeping around the oil drain plug. The root cause of which was an aftermarket oil plug that some shop had installed years ago. It's a minor inconvenience I can live with until my next oil change. My advice - if you own a Subaru, avoid this shop at all costs. You'll be money ahead taking it to the local Subaru dealership instead.

He returned, "The boss will be in soon, I think. Gotta go." I waited some more and finally gave up. I can't really comment on their work, or value, but I'm going somewhere else.

Got it home, next day it wouldn't go backwards or forward. Had it towed at my expense (warranty doesn't cover towing). Again, the long wait. It worked okay for awhile, now it doesn't want to accelerate right away. DO NOT TRUST SHRUM'S.

He then told me I needed a completely new transmission. I went to Shrum's for a second opinion. The Mechanic there plugged in the computer and we took it for a ride.

I've taken my truck back to Shrum's for other issues and I've always been impressed by their service and their fairness in pricing.

People STAY AWAY. They tried to sell me a vehicle that the brakes were at 3MM thickness ALL the way…read morearound, and it needed rotors. Having been in the business a long time, dealers I worked at in 2 different states would NEVER sell a car with under 4MM. 2-3MM is UNSAFE and causes LONGER stopping distance. But they do not care here. I only found out after asking for the Used car Inspection report on the car. ALWAYS ask for that if a dealer refuses go somewhere else they are hiding something. I am still considering reporting this dealer for this, lord knows they are surely NOT able to be trusted if they would let a vehicle leave with unsafe brakes. SEE BELOW UNDER ITEMS REQUIRING IMMEDIATE ATTENTION !!!!! Brake Pad Thickness Levels New (8 mm to 12 mm): Full performance and maximum stopping power. Worn (4 mm to 6 mm): Mid-life; plan to change them soon. Critical Unsafe (2 mm to 3 mm): Dangerous zone; stopping distance increases and risk of damaging the metal rotor grows.
