Last March I went in for a Maine State Inspection and was told I needed my steering rack replaced…read moreand a rear enforcement bumper. He was quoting $2,500+ for the steering rack and $553+ for the bumper reinforcement. I took my car to three other reputable shops in the Portland area. I was quoted $337 for the bumper reinforcement with OEM part, and the repair man even told my father and I that we could replace it ourselves because my father was able to remove the bumper cover himself. The other shops I went to told me I only needed my inner tie rod replaced including a wheel alignment. I got this repair done for $220 dollars and my car drives great. It is a 2013 Honda CRV with 70,000 miles that has never had issues on the road. The one difference between going to Carter's and going to the other repair shops is that I went ALONE (without my father) to Carter's a as young woman. I remember when I dropped my keys off at Carter's and the man at the desk called me "sweety." Unprofessional and patronizing. Carters is deceitful, greedy, and untrustworthy. Do not come here unless you want to get taken advantage of.

We are very satisfied with the work done to our service van…read more We really needed a brake job, on a tall Transit van, Stopped in because they are next door to our new location and have a high overhead door. The estimate was accurate, communication was very good with other issues found while working on it, the van was returned on time and cleaner than when we dropped it off. This was our first experience with Horsepower, we found them to be very professional, knowlegeable and accomodating. thank you

I was…read morestressed out and did not want to be stuck at the dealership all day, but luckily I found Cumberland Ave Garage! AAA came to jump my car, and when that didn't solve the problem they towed me here. I didn't know what to expect, but I was so pleased by the kindness and promptness of the team here. I had no appointment and understood I could be without a car for a few days. But within 48 hours my car was working and back to me again. Things that stood out-their team is direct and goes above and beyond for you! They told me everything that I needed to know about my car troubles (ultimately a new battery) and things that I should look into (due for oil change and state inspection). They did all of this work for a reasonable price and I know I'll be coming back here in the future (hopefully with a scheduled appointment and not a breakdown). I highly recommend getting your car serviced here :) The do a great job, and it's walking distance to many great coffee and breakfast options if you have time to kill.

When they said it was not fixable, so they offered to sell another. They sold a car that was recalled for catching on fire and this was never disclosed and the box asking IF it was recalled, yes or no, they selected NOTHING, even though an option for, "don't know", isn't an option. Ignorance is never an excuse for putting some ones life in danger. NEVER use their services, even if it is to put windshield wiper fluid in your car, as you will regret it!!
