    Excellent service got me and and out no issue , both of my vehicles has been here and came out greatread more

    I would strongly recommend avoiding this mechanic…read more I brought my BMW in because of an engine overheating issue. They told me the cooling fan needed to be replaced, although I already suspected the fan was working fine--because the very first time my engine overheated, I actually heard the fan running before the warning message appeared on my screen. I paid $1,300 for the repair and left the shop, only for my engine to overheat again after driving about 30 miles. I almost ended up paying another $500 for towing. The next day I managed to get the car back to the shop because the original problem was clearly not fixed. At first, he told me he would take care of it, but the next day he changed his story and said I would "only need to pay for parts." By that point, he had already significantly overpriced the parts--I know the prices of genuine OEM BMW parts, and his quote was much higher. Then the following day he texted me saying that price was for parts only, strongly implying I would also have to pay labor again. He then claimed that the water pump and thermostat were failing and showed fault codes on the computer. The problem is, when I first brought the car in, I specifically asked him to check the water pump and thermostat because I had this exact issue about 3 years ago and had already replaced both. I also mentioned a knocking noise coming from the engine that I suspected could be related to the overheating, and that was written on the invoice. This makes it seem like a proper diagnostic was never done the first time. One day I was told everything else was working fine, and the next day suddenly multiple major components were "bad." What's even more suspicious is that after they replaced the fan, the new diagnostic still showed a fan malfunction code, even though they had supposedly replaced it the day before. I still don't understand why that error was still there. In the end, my car had the exact same overheating problem, the same engine noise, and the same symptoms as before I brought it in. I paid $1,300 and the original issue was never fixed. To add to everything above, I also know that the new parts they were recommending cost approximately $800 total, and with labor, this would have cost me at least another $1,500 or more on top of what I had already paid. After already spending $1,300 for a repair that did not fix the original issue, I had very little confidence in paying even more for additional repairs that should have been properly diagnosed from the beginning. I strongly believe that if a car leaves the shop and breaks down again after only a few miles with the exact same issue, I should not be expected to pay for repairs a second time. This didn't happen weeks or even days later--it happened the very same day. To me, that clearly shows the original repair or diagnosis was not done correctly, and I ended up paying for something that did not actually fix the problem.

    Mike is a very honest and knowledgeable mechanic. I would trust him with anybof my vehicles and…read morehighly recommend him to anyone who needs a good mechanic.

    If I could give this place a negative review, I would…read more I went here because of all the 5 star reviews but I was so wrong. A little over a week ago on a Wednesday around 4PM, I was coming back from an interview and my car died. Lo and behold, I already had my appointment scheduled for a completely different issue (Check Engine Light) around 8AM on Thursday. I got my car towed to this place a day early and was assured they would figure out the problem. Roll around to Thursday evening around 4PM, I called for a status update as I had appointments on Friday and they gave me excuses and reasons about how they were very busy (with other cars). It's like you've had my car since the night before, what's the hold up. So Friday morning happens and after spending 75 dollars round trip for a decent cab, they call me around 11AM saying they have to fix the alternator and battery. Ok, fine. Fix it because I have things to do Monday and I don't have days to keep my car in the shop. They call me back later, literally 20 minutes before closing and say my car is ready. I live about 5 minutes away by car, and since they offer pick up service, I asked can they pick me up. They said no, it's just one of us here. Um, two different people were on the phone call though. Frantic to get my car before they closed, they offered to put the keys in a secure place for when I got there after hours. Ok. One hot bus ride later, I picked up my car with a fat receipt for $1,001 for parts and repair in the front seat and my driver's side window jacked up and left. Which I told them when I made my appointment not to fuss with the windows because they had a problem rolling up. They didn't listen and left the window glass jacked up. Thank God it wasn't raining. All it took was to guide the glass up by hand and they didn't even bother to do that. Anyway, I was back on the road and my check engine light was off - that is until I reached the freeway and it was right back on. Great. Honestly, I WOULDN'T care as long as the car could drive but NJ is on you like white on rice about emmissions which my test is coming up. (The whole reason I took my car in) I shot them an email as soon as i got home because they're closed on the weekends asking them what happened with the CEL and they just replied, oh since the battery was replaced it cleared so we couldn't do anything with it. (So you didn't bother to check a damn thing?) Then they told me to wait until it comes back on. Hello, that's why I'm contacting you, it IS back on! Then he goes, well schedule an appointment (again) to leave it with us overnight (again) so we can look into it. Scanning a CEL code literally only takes minutes. Damn sure not an hour or more. So I politely said I would have to check my schedule and hung up. Hell no am I going back. I went to another mechanic and scanned my code in minutes and checked my gas cap - advising me that is the light came back on again, they would really need to get in there and look. I popped in at the spur of the moment so I understood that and I was grateful they could squeeze me in. It came back on last night, so on my way to the new mechanic today, guess what happened? MY CAR DIED AGAIN. The battery light fully lit up on my dashboard in all its orange foreboding glory. You mean to tell me, I spent over a grand at Mike's for battery/alternator issues literally a week ago for my car to die (this time in the middle of the street)?! I could have been hit my anything and killed as I was right in the middle of a turn with traffic all around. Thank God I managed to force my car to the side of the road before any lights changed. Now I'm sitting out in the hot sun, on a 90+ degree day, fighting off yellowjackets and other random bugs, waiting for a tow truck to take my car to someone that can do something on a Saturday afternoon as my new mechanic is now closed for the day. DO NOT GO TO MIKE'S. I tossed that Keychain they gave me into the trash, too. This is ridiculous.
