I was in Bethel visiting a friend at his business and reached out to Belardinelli Tire asking if they could help me. Lisa the owner responded and said they would gladly look at the tire.

They patched it up and I was on my way within 30 mins. These guys are awesome! Thanks so much for the quick and awesome service!

Very disappointing experience. If you have a specialty or enthusiast car, I would look elsewhere…read more I brought my 1999 BMW M3 in for an alignment after installing KW V2 coilovers and paid $225. The car came back with the steering wheel off-center and the alignment incorrect. I brought it back for a second alignment. They never mentioned any issue with the alignment or that adjustable top hats were needed -- they simply called and said the car was ready and tracking straight. It wasn't. After raising the issue again, I was eventually told the car needed adjustable top hats to properly address the front camber. The third visit was to obtain the alignment sheets and understand what was actually going on. The specs were clearly off. This should have been identified and communicated from the beginning. There was time between visits because this is a specialty car I rarely drive, it's not my only vehicle, I travel frequently, and I wanted to rule out anything on my end. The shop seemed to hold that against me. After installing the top hats, I gave them an opportunity to make things right. Herb was defensive and combative and told me I would have to pay for another full alignment. I asked for a call from the owner or manager, but no one followed up. I eventually called back and spoke with Jared. He was more cordial and acknowledged they may have made a mistake, but ultimately took the same position and accepted no responsibility for the poor communication or inconvenience caused. This isn't about another $225. It's about accountability and standing behind the work you already performed. Mistakes happen. Refusing to own them is the problem. I would not recommend this shop, especially for specialty vehicles.

My car wouldn't start one morning and after getting a jump (3 different times) I walked into RJ's…read moreshop frustrated after spending an entire morning trying to find someone to fix my car. I kept getting the same answer from the dealership and all the other places I called-- it would be at least a week and maybe two before they could even look at it. I was greeted by the very friendly owner (Bob) who apologetically said he was in the middle of replacing someone's transmission and wouldn't be able to diagnose the problem until the next day. He and his son are a two man operation. He very graciously offered a ride home. And when he called me the next morning he confirmed what we believed was wrong. He said he and his son stayed late the night before and got it fixed and I could come pick it up. Fortunately this was the first issue I've ever had with my car and hopefully the last for a good while, but friendliness, great customer service and a job well done have ensured I'll be a return customer the next time I need a mechanic.

First, my mom called in advance that the car needed to be checked out and confirmed that we could drop off keys and car before opening (done this multiple times with no issues). Turns out, the car was stolen from the lot and the manager (I don't have a name) refused to look at the security tapes, accusing my mom of never dropping off the car there in the first place. They knew to expect our vehicle as we call to make sure each time. We only found out after calling in the afternoon since we hadn't heard back in the usual time that our car was looked at, ready, etc. Once report was filed, police got to look at the footage. No apology for not believing my mom dropped off the car or just general acknowledgement that their customer's vehicle was stolen. Again, this was not our first time dropping off the car before opening so we knew we didn't leave the keys in the wrong place.
