The level of incompetence is astounding. The first time I got my car back, the oil cooler they…read morereplaced was leaking everywhere. The engine oil warning light came on. I made it clear in writing all of what needed to be done to the vehicle. I told the body shop (I was hit by a Geico underinsured motorist) that sent my car to this business that there's no rush and that I'm happy to pay whatever it takes to get the car right. I put in writing that the lug nuts needed to be torqued to spec. (101-103 ft. lbs.). Today I went to take 1 of the wheels they put on the car off. I used penetrating oil, tapped the hex socket (this is what you want to use, not a 12 point that will strip the lug corners) a breaker bar with a 3 ft. pipe extension (total of almost 5') and could not break the lugs free. And bent the breaker bar. I'm a 45 year old male with above average strength. Next I went to a neighbor's house, tapped the socket on to the lug nut and used a top of the line 1/2" Snap-on impact at 175 PSI. This produces somewhere between 1,200 and 1,600 ft. lbs. of nut-breaking torque. IT DIDN'T move a millimeter. There's about 4 people involved between this shop and the body shop and no one is capable of following manufacturer or customer instructions. Or verifying the shoddy work of others even after the "others" have done previous shoddy work. I have documentation of the instructions and receipts if anyone would like to see them before taking their car to this establishment. They've had multiple chances to do things correctly and have proven that they either are not capable, do not care or both. They have no more chances. Whatever manager/owner response that appears is a fools attempt to save face. I was a fool to allow my car to be serviced here. You are too if you read this and still go there. It's not worth risking your life. Do yourself a favor and choose another shop.

They said they weren't sure because they were pretty busy. They close at 6 and when I hadn't heard from them by 6:10 I thought I'd have to wait until Monday. They called at 6:35 and said my car was ready. They stayed late just to get to my car! I also got a senior discount. I highly recommend this place!

I stopped taking my luxury vehicle to the dealership as soon as my warranties were up and my service is better here (and less expensive). I'm thinking of getting a Jeep one day, and Nick just so happens to be a Jeep expert so I guess our automotive relationship will continue for years to come. Nick of Time is your ideal neighborhood mechanic. Never any issues!

When I asked if someone could take a look at my truck, I was told, "No, I'm not going to lay on wet pavement." I understood that the ground was wet, but the way it was said came across as rude and dismissive. When I politely asked him to repeat the estimate, he responded, "I just told you an around-about estimate," in a condescending tone. I explained that I was simply trying to do business and didn't appreciate the way I was being spoken to. His response was to tell me that I could leave. I left feeling disrespected and unwelcome. I can't say why I was treated that way, but the interaction left me questioning whether bias may have played a role. Regardless of the reason, no customer should be treated with that level of disrespect. I took my business elsewhere and would not recommend this shop based on my experience.

So far, so good! I…read moremoved and needed a real mechanic for my Honda Civic. Valvoline is good for oil changes, but... This place was a recommendation so of course I came to Yelp for verification. The reviews were good so here were are. I agree, this is one of those old fashioned, honest, garages. It's in an odd spot though, and from the outside you probably wouldn't guess it's a service station. But once you step inside you'll be awed. However, there's no place to chill and wait so you'll need a ride or just plan to leave and come back. I wanted a 'tune up'. My Honda is a commuter car and for 3-years old, she has some miles on her. I just wanted piece of mind. He said for first time visits he likes to do a good once over. I thought that meant I'd be paying for some things I hadn't planned on. BUT, to my surprise he relayed the car was in good shape. He changed the oil, put on new wipers, and gave me a run-down of what's to come. I'm a fan of honest service. I'll be back!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Don't use this business! I brought my truck in for ROUTINE maintenance,…read morenothing was wrong with my truck. It was just time for my regularly scheduled oil change and alignment. I I was told along with the oil change and alignment that I needed a new air filter. I was told they had the parts, but I sat waiting for the part's for two hours. They didn't bother saying that's why my car wasn't ready. It wasn't until I stood up saying I'll come back for the filter that the part guy showed up. I took my truck home and the very next day I notice when I started my truck, it was sputtering. I didn't think anything of it until I noticed it was becoming more and more persistent everyday. Then I noticed when I got on the beltway my truck was struggling to accelerate and vibrating. I'm thinking what is going on. I called the owner back and told him what eas going on. He said bring it back. I told him i just started a new and will call when I can take a day off. Over the next several weeks I started to realize it was the oil. They put the wrong grade of motor oil in my truck that's why my truck was sputtering at start up and while idle. I called the owner and told him that i think they put the wrong grade of motor oil in my truck and explained why. He immediately got defensive. Saying they put the right grade in according to the instructions. I told him but my truck was fine and this was not a problem. He said to bring my truck in but if that's not the problem then I'll have to pay extra. How much you want to bet even if that was the problem they wouldn't admit it. And would probably charge me for unnecessary work to cover up the mistake. I said my truck is worse off than it was when I brought it in. It's the oil, mistakes happen. We argued because he didn't want to admit that it was the likely problem. I took my truck elsewhere and had them change the oil to full synthetic, which is what the maintenance schedule says is the required grade. Well, you guessed it, after the new changed oil , my truck is purring like a kitten. NO SPUTTERING!!! NO VIBRATIONS!! Pars put the wrong oil in my truck that could have caused serious damaged to my engine, if they didn't already. I'll have to wait and see. So, lesson learned, i dont care how many years a business tout family business or experience, they are hiring non skilled workers working on your vehicle.
