I sat in the lobby while the work was completed. Last year, I had a horrendous time at another Plainview shop trying to have my car inspected. I am delighted that my friend recommended Vinnie.

If you are reading this review and it's miraculously in the "recommended " area, do yourself a…read morefavor and go past the very last review to a very light grey hard to read area where it says "not recommended reviews" cause there you will find even more great reviews for Vinnie. What can I say. I grew up in Plainview and now Work there. I've used Vinnie for 30 years for probably 7 cars. The most honest and ethical auto mechanic there is. Also he can fix anything and will try to save you money doing it. If this review again is somehow picked by the Yelp gods to be bogus (read not paid for by the reviewee) than so be it. just use Vinnie. He's the best.

They charged me over $900 to fix the leak, but when I got the car back it was still losing coolant. So I brought it back and they told me it was a fan issue an they fixed it. In a couple days my cars engine was completely destroyed and the car broke down on the high way. So I brought it to a another mechanic and they told me it looked like the oil was never changed and the leak was my head gasket. Which is easy to diagnose. So basically j&p auto was just robbing me this whole time and never doing any actual work on my car. Honestly, I'd stay away from them.

Marie, who runs the shop, was incredibly professional and kind. She kept me informed every step of the way and acted as the intermediary with the insurance company, which made everything so much easier for me and my family. What truly sets Marie apart is her determination and advocacy; she won't let insurance companies bully the customer. She made it clear that insurance companies are there to serve the customer, not the other way around. Her expertise in navigating the complexities of New York and New Jersey insurance was invaluable. I truly can't recommend them enough; they're the best I've ever worked with!

Nick, helped right from the start (I knew what I was looking for) and he was able to help make sure the tires I needed were the right ones for my SUV. He commented that he could try to get them for me same day but I planned to come a few days later, Nick stated he'd have them ready for me when I came to the shop. When I arrived for installation, I was taken right away and assured it would only be around 30 minutes. I was directed to pay (use cash to avoid the 3% credit fee) and by the time I was done, my tires were already off and being swapped out. I didn't notice a waiting area (it was a bit cold out but tolerable) but in honesty, it wasn't really needed as I basically blinked and my new tires were on and I was being told that I was ready to go. Overall, every single person I interacted with was absolutely amazing. From talking to Nick to get the right tire and have all my questions answered, to the man directing me to the correct bay to pull my car in, to the cashier (slightly hard to hear with all the noise but ok), to the two men who installed my new tires, I was incredibly impressed!
