I have going to 303 Auto for 7 years an this establishment is top notch. Mike is a professional with high standards. I find him honest and has not once been unfair in pricing. I have purchased tires, brakes an rotor service inspections and even plugged my tires on short notice. I have used many mechanics in the past and was thrilled to find this one when I moved to the area. . read more

Highly over priced. does unauthorized repairs then sticks you with a large repair bill.

Magic Mike the Mechanic is also Nice Mike the Mechanic. Although I'm an older woman who could easily be being robbed blindly by Mike since I know nothing about cars (robbers please don't take note) I totally trust him. He explains the repairs to me, not that I understand but still...., and patiently answers my ignorant questions about my car concerns. When I'm in a pinch, he'll squeeze me in so I try not to take advantage of this, giving him two weeks notice for repairs if they're not urgently needed. My male friends who go here say he is an honest mechanic as well, so I'm trusting my instinct he is. So far he's been keeping my 2013 car going with no major issues , so thank you to Magic Mike. read more

I normally do not write reviews but I felt it was important to share this experience. Magic Mike or whatever you call him comes off as a SCAM and so does the Auto Shop. We had an in person verbal agreement, he told me in person that an AC service would cost $100 and when I had my son drop off my car for me, he charged my son $225. He up-charged my son because he's a teenager and looked like a perfect victim. This inconsistency between the initial quote and the final charge was very disappointing especially when I was referred to this shop by a friend who is also their customer. As a customer, I value transparency and accountability, and I believe businesses should honor their stated pricing and commitments. I called him directly and called him out on what he did. When my son picked up the car and paid for the invoice, he decided to take $25 off the invoice. What a nice guy? LoL! Customers, please be aware and cautious when dealing with Magic Mike or this Auto Shop. Thank you! read more

Wish I found them earlier, I tried New Tech Auto Repair, the guy showed up over 1 hour after he said and he punched wrong month on inspection sticker. I tried Orangeburg Auto Repair and their careless tech scratched up brand new car for new car inspection. I tried Palisades Hyundai and they tried to scam me over failed wipers, which were new. However, Route 303 Auto Repair was fast, efficient, friendly and no funny business when it comes to inspections, which seems to be rare. read more

I've been coming to this shop for 15 years, including my family. Mike always gives good advice - makes time - and is honest about the solutions in regard to your vehicle needs. I trust them with my car needs and recommend them. I even had an unconventional car inspection ask this week, and he said he'd help me out. read more

I can't say enough good things about this shop. Mike is a great mechanic and very honest. I've been taking my cars to him pretty much since he opened up, including my nearly 30 year old Mercedes. When he takes a job he gets it done fast, done right and within the estimate. In the event he's not comfortable doing something on my old Benz he'll just pass on it, which I appreciate. If you own a car you need a good and trustworthy mechanic, now you know where to go. read more

I came here a few times to get an oil change and my experience so far has been great. I'm usually in and out within 10 mins. I haven't done any major work here but I think they've been good with minor work. read more

I needed a new tire due to a slow leak. My regular garage is closed on weekends so i went here. They found the tire beyond repair and ordered a new tire for the same day. The price was similar to my other garage. The tire was replaced within 3 hours and they called me to pick up the car. No problem. No fuss. read more

These guys are experts at finding problems with your that either don't exist or need much simpler less expensive solutions. For example my steering was tight and they told me it needed a major repair costing over $1000. When all it needed was steering fluid. I have since found a more reputable honest repair shop read more

Stay away. They domage tire pressure sensor of the rear tire while putting on winter tires. "Just drive few mile and will get fixed by itself." When they replaced the sensor, 4 weeks later, they short it and also the front one got broken. Also, very very very rude people. Unprofessional, dishonest and rude. read more

I started coming here for NY State inspections since I work on the border of NJ and NY and 'Route 303' was close to work. My first time there I immediately noticed the quality of work and customer service from this business and have been coming back ever since. Even when working remote for the last year from NYC, I will still drive over the bridge to come back to Route 303 Auto. read more

Im really shocked reading through the reviews here. Ive been using Route 303 for about a year now. I chose them originally because of how close it is to my house. However after building a relationship with the staff, specifically Mike, I am very happy with the continued service they provide on all of our vehicles. Honest, fair and competitive pricing. read more

I was working hours away from my home in Southern New Jersey when the upper radiator hose started to leak and overheat my 2017 Ford Transit 250. By luck I was right near a garage where he promptly told me he was short staffed and couldn't help me even if he had the hose. I purchase antifreeze and was on my way. I was able to find an advanced auto parts store where they informed me that nobody carries this hose. The owner of 303 Auto Repair was there an insists I drive to his shop and he would do what he could to help. Not only did they start working on my van the minute I pulled up, they were able to find an old hose that would work to get me back on the road. These guys are awesome! They saved me from missing work and a very expensive Uber. I can't thank them enough for helping me. read more

Ive used 303 auto a handful of times for inspections and to repair a couple of tires. They always get me in and out for inspections and give me honest recommendations and competitive quotes for any work that needs to be done. They've never failed me on a inspection or tried to tell me I needed work done to pass inspection. Price for a inspection hasn't changed in 2 or 3 years. read more

This is my favorite auto repair shop they do both good and bad service here... the good is that they give estimates for repairs and is timely.. but the bad is i went there for an and sensor replacement they replaced it and said it should be good but they forgot to hot the reset button luckily my dealer did for free. read more

Stay away or risk extremely rude and defensive behavior by owner should you have any questions whatsoever about services provided no matter how politely you ask. read more

DON'T GO THERE.. BEWARE OF THESE CHEATERS.. I went there to get my car inspection and just as other people wrote, this person told me that there are issues in my NEW car. He said he can't take his machine out from my car. When I resisted for any repairs, he talked rude and pulled my car out. I don't truest these guys. SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY. DON'T GO THERE. read more

DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR HERE. After Accident, Brought my Turbo Porche here. Paid the man close to $5000 for repairs. A week after, Parts have been falling off. It started with bumper, When bumper fell off, I realized everything inside was taped with electric tape! OMG Broken pieces from the accident has simply been taped... Making matter Worse, Porsche dealer have notified me that parts use were replica. Now we are in processing of suing them. Putting replica parts in vehicle is Very Dangerous and they are total crooks. Lastly, we really tried to work amicably with this man. Unfortunately, This man was so uncivilized, so nasty and in-comprehensive. read more

Stay away! The even managed to mess up a NYS Inspection. Part of the inspection involves checking to see if brake pads are adequate. 2 weeks later when my mechanic when to put new tires on, we discovered the pads were completely worn, one of which was metal on metal, requiring a pair of rotors to be replaced as well. STEER CLEAR. at least telling me about the pads would have been nice. something like that is deadly had it caused an accident. read more

We did not have a very good experience. Our car wouldn't start after they did some work. They denied it was anything to do with them and wouldn't compensate for the tow. We feel cheated. After getting fixed at 260 Auto in Haverstraw, our car is running perfectly. read more

Needed to get a NY inspection and was so impressed with the owner, that I now bring my car there for any servicing I need. He doesn't try to sell you something you don't need and thoroughly explains things you do need. read more

Had a fantastic experience with this shop. They were timely and accommodating to my schedule. As for comments by other reviewers about rudeness, they are completely false. I have not met one person there that was rude or unprofessional. read more

Owner very rude would not recommend very unprofessional------ he got very verbal with me Hopfully I can save other people from getting harassed from this place read more

Every time I need 303 Auto Repair in a pinch they are super helpful! Michael works hard to fit me in even with little notice. The prices are reasonable and the car is always ready when they estimate it or before. I decided to finally write a review because I have a flat tire and once again, they can help me out right away! Highly recommend this shop. It might look a little haphazard when you go there, but they do quality work. read more

I made an appointment in the morning for an inspection on the same day, after my dentist appointment. The dentist got me out quickly and I arrived over a half hour early for a car inspection of my new certified pre owned vehicle. John was very polite and nice and took me immediately. I do not live locally and John knew it, but gave me excellent service anyway. I was impressed. Stan M. read more

I had a Wondeful experience at this mechanic. I had two cars inspected without any issues--my Pathfinder and Prius. Also, they did an oil change. Prompt service and fair prices. I don't understand what the other reviews are complaining about. read more

Do not waste your time, money or energy dealing with these people. The owner is a straight up crook. Giving this repair shop a rating of 1 star is too high! If you look on google, which I should've done, you'll see that every single review had a bad experience and gave him 1 star. I brought my car in because it was over heating. They told me I needed a new radiator. They replaced it but the car was still over heating. So then he says it's the "head" without ever giving me an explanation of what he means by "head." After he dodged that question, I should have stopped right there and brought my car to a legitimate repair shop but I gave him another chance on good faith because he portrayed himself as a church going man. So a few weeks go by and he doesn't contact me once. I decide to call him and he says now its an engine problem. He tells me he can either rebuild it or replace it with a used one. I tell him if he can find a used engine for cheap then go ahead and do that. He tells me it might take a while to find a used engine. A few months go by and I haven't heard from him. I show up to the shop only to find that he decided to rebuild my engine without my permission. The worst part is, he made it even worse! Now the transmission is messed up. Its almost like its stuck in 1 gear. I decide to sue the guy but I ended up losing because I couldn't afford a lawyer and I probably didn't have enough evidence to prove that he essentially destroyed my car. So at this point I don't even care about losing, I just wanted my car back and I wanted to never have to deal with this guy again. Now this is where it really gets interesting. The guy refused to take the money that the court mandated me to pay just so he can keep my car in his lot and probably just to piss me off. So this whole fiasco has been going on for about a year and a half and I was finally able to retrieve my car a couple months ago after a few mutual acquaintances helped convince him to stop being an a-hole. I'll admit, I should have never let him get this far with ripping me off but I think my experience shows what kind of person this guy really is. And I think his character showed when he decided to refuse payment just to stick it to me. And if you're wondering, yes this man is Korean and from Korea. I'm also Korean and I can speak Korean fluently so there was no language barrier. And I just want to say that this man in no way, shape or form represents what Korean people are like. So again, DO NOT bring your vehicle to this place! read more

as trustworthy of a mechanic as you would hope. great job with replacing tires for us.
