I REALLY wanted to give Peter and his business a very good review. He has worked on our car several…read moretimes in the last couple of years, and has usually been fairly quick to respond and completed the work satisfactorily. He has not ALWAYS come on the day he agreed to come, but I can say that about many island contractors and usually am pretty flexible. He has completed brake work, replaced a tire, put a "kill switch" on our battery for when we leave the island, replaced a battery, and an alternator. He has shown admirable skills on all of these repairs, and has charged a fair price (at least by Vineyard standards). This past month, however, he has ruined our "relationship." As an independent contractor, he has always asked for 1/2 up front and then 1/2 upon completion. I know, I know...perhaps that is my own fault for accepting those terms...but he has always completed the work and I felt OK with the situation. Recently I asked him to check out an "ABS" warning light on my car and replace another tire; after an initial assessment and quote, I paid him the requisite half. He has since disappeared--he does not answer his phone or respond to texts. It has been weeks since his last communication with me--and of course he still has my money--several hundred dollars. At this point, I feel that he has stolen my money and will never hear from him again. I know that I should not take it personally, but it does hurt to know that I have always been exceptionally quick to pay Peter and always kind to him when we talk. I have even asked if needed water/coffee, etc while working. Unfortunately, I need to let the world know--BEWARE OF THIS SCAMMER!

My car stopped providing any power and the check engine light came on, luckily it was able to limp onto the boat and to Autoeuropa. My friends and family trusted this place. I was terrified because online it said the EPC light had a chance of being a death sentence and that the dealers often couldn't fix it (said people with similar symptoms) some reviews mentioned a class action lawsuit since sometimes there is no fix. 3 days later and with 1 reasonably priced payment my car is back on the road purring as she switches gears.

This most recent experience has led me to believe otherwise and I will absolutely not be taking my car back or recommending ever again. I had gotten new tires/brakes put on the car at different points over the winter. Right before the 4th of July, my engine start shaking and so my boyfriend brought the car in on Tuesday, June 24th. We had had off island plans for the holiday but didn't hear anything from the guys at the garage so we pivoted plans, not a huge deal. 2 weeks went by with one or two texts that said "we'll call with an update" however, no call was received. 3 weeks in, they called and said they couldn't duplicate the problem but found and issue with a wheel bearing- we asked that they not fix the wheel bearing but just see if they could diagnose the engine problem. When nothing was still done about the engine, my boyfriend went on YouTube and sent the mechanics videos on common fixes..... It is now July 31st, we picked up the car and have been charged $800 for..... wheel bearings, spark plugs, labor and parts. Half of which we had asked them not to fix, the other half that should have been an easy enough fix that didn't take a month and a half of absolutely no communication. I will happily pay what is fair but this is so wrong on so many levels I cannot fathom spending another dime here, nor should you. If I could give 0 stars I would.

AAA took about 2 hours to arrive due to a very busy day, but they recognized that our potential issue would need serious work so he called around to find a shop willing to review/repair our car quickly. They called Courtesy Motors (second phone call) and even though Courtesy was about to close, the owner Larry was willing to stay past closing in order to await our arrival. Once there, he and one of his mechanics determined that the water pump (and related belt issue) was gone on our car and he immediately started phoning for the replacement part in order to get our car fixed as quickly as possible. The price was higher than at home in Central MA, but considering our location and the expedited nature of having the part delivered in order to do our repair, the price was reasonable. I would highly recommend this shop.

When my husband and I arrived, from off island and by taxi, Joe was no where to be found. The car was wedged into the back of an unpaved lot surrounded by junk cars. It had apparently been sitting there the entire time. When Joe did arrive, he was unapologetic and told us we would have to "figure it out" for ourselves where we could spend the next 2 hours waiting for our car to be fixed. The shop is in an area of Oak Bluffs not easily accessed except by car. It was a 50 degree, gusty day so we walked up and down the road and sat around on a jersey barrier for 2 hours while Joe proceeded to unload tires from his truck before he started work on the car. He was surly and rude for most of the time we were there, but offered a reluctant and cursory apology at the end -- right before he presented the bill, which had not been reduced in any way for the extreme inconvenience and physical discomfort we experienced.
