Well, Palumbo's is doing pretty well without my review, but here goes:…read more-Gave an estimate and presented an invoice for the same. No add-ons like the dealer. Subtle work suggestions printed on reverse of invoice listed according to severity or need to replace without any pressure. -Dealer, who always serviced my Acura TLX always gave a verbal estimate of what needed to be done next delivered with a print out of red stop signs. This was delivered in an ominous tone & they were unwilling to prioritize all of the work needing to be done. "You might as well do it while you're here...we're pretty booked because of (choose any reason)" Lots of doom & gloom. Car has less than 50k miles... -Greeter/cashier was extremely friendly and explained things well. Promised the job would take about an hour, but I paid & was out the door in 45 minutes. Similar service last month at the dealer's took 1.5+ hours... I was looking to establish a relationship with a garage that was close by, trustworthy, pleasant to deal with and who did good work. Bye, bye Acura dealer.

Jerrell was kind enough to help me that same day a few hours later with no questions asked. I had never stepped foot in their establishment prior. He put my car on the lift to look for a device, he was not able to find anything but told me to come back anytime if I had any additional information. This type of kindness really went a long way for me. I won't hesitate to bring my car there for service because of the way he went out of his way for me and didn't have to. He didn't charge me a dime! I highly recommend Palumbo's if you are looking for a business that genuinely cares. Can't say enough great things about them!

My wife's car, 2006 VW Jetta TDI was having an issue with the car going into limp mode at random times especially on the highways. It was beyond frustrating because the check engine light would go on with a generic code which made it hard to pin-point the exact cause of the issue. Tom took my car in and drove it for couple of days to troubleshoot the problem, and he did find the problem. It was a broken waste gate actuator that'd fail to open intermittently especially when the engine was under heavy load. After replacing the actuator the problem went away.. thanks to Tom. Here's the deal, I took the car to several mechanics prior to Euro Specialists, and none of them could figure out the problem. They all charged me diagnostic fees along with other things that they thought was causing the limp mode. Thanks European Specialists, I'll be sure to bring all my cars here for repairs and services.

They told me I needed a $400 front brake job-when I took it elsewhere I was told I had 50% left on the brakes. I needed a battery-was quoted $140-they tried to justify it by telling it took half an hour to install it. A 60,000 mile tune up (air filter/plugs/brake fluid/radiator fluid) was quoted at $600. When questioned about getting a bit of a break-I was told "You want it free ?-go somewhere else..." I did-after having to pay them $90 for the 'quote/estimate'. Come here only if you have extra cash that's burning a hole in your pocket-otherwise you'd have to have a hole in the head to use this joint. p.s.-they smoke cigs whilst working on your car-it will take weeks for the stench to dissipate.

John who is a GM is really great and cares about his customers. Good value. Aside this place is very close to a Starbucks so easy to work there while waiting.

This car ran great at an outside temp of 50 degrees or less Once you approach 60 it would mis fire badly. This model year's computer does not code very much. with a desire to over come this challenge they kept after it I think you would characterize Vertucci repair as a laid back shop of the 50s and 60s that experience counted for something that combined with up to date technology you get the best of both worlds.
