The part would normally cost about $80 at Napa, and it's a 10 minute job at best. I realize they need to make a profit, but come on - - - $700!?!? So much for the affordable and reliable service I used to get at New Meadows. They'll never see any of my 4 cars again! I miss Joe already...

Annoyingly, we'd picked up a nail in a tire while passing though New York and had replaced it, but knew we needed to get all the tires checked before hitting the road back to California. JOHN'S TO THE RESCUE. Not only did John detect the direness of our tire's worn-down state, but he managed to acquire the replacement tires needed at a reasonable price, and squeeze us in to have the car ready the next morning, thus assuring we could get back on the road to California on the safest tires possible and on schedule. John and his wife are generous, professional, and all around lovely people. I wish we had them out here in Los Angeles because I'd take my car there every time. John really provides the kind of personalized service that puts a warm face and a hearty laugh on a small town like Ipswich, MA, and let's his customers drive away feeling safer and happy. A class act. I look forward to returning soon!

Beware. After coming in for an oil change using one of their discounted coupons that they send out…read moreI was told of a few things that were wrong and needed to be fixed. This was rather surprising as there were no indications of a problem and my car is relatively new. So I went to another mechanic that I trust to have it checked out and he told me there was nothing wrong with the car. He also told me that he sees more and more people coming in after getting their oil checked by Cousins and being told they need all sorts of work done. I also told an acquaintance about my experience and he told me that his mechanic says the same thing - people come in crying because Cousins told them all sorts of things were wrong with their cars and he checks and finds it not true.

It was an older car and I never considered having the engine replaced but the technician reminded me of a recall on my vehicle that I forgot all about, having to do with the engine. They let me keep my car in their lot for about a month with no charge while I tried to work out replacement with the dealer. On another occasion they helped me this winter when my other car started to rattle like crazy after the back to back snow storm. They brought my car into their garage and let it warm up so they could remove snow caked inside the wheel wells. I got an oil change at the same time and they only charged me for that and provided me with a loaner for no charge! Highly recommend this business that takes care of their customers above and beyond compared to most mechanics I have dealt with, absolute 5 star rating!

New Meadows saved the weekend with a speedy alternator repair turnaround. They found a way to obtain the part and install it in only a few hours on a summer Friday.

There are only four pumps and one man working there at any one time, so there tends to be a line, but the place is set up so that all the cars enter from one end and exit from the other, so everyone moves along pretty quickly. The guys who work there are also really nice. This place doesn't do anything but pump your gas - no air for your tires, no washing your windows, no attached convenient store - but when the weather is gross and you don't feel like standing outside for 5 minutes pumping your gas, this is definitely the place to go.
