This is illegal by state law. They give you an option to zelle payment directly to the owners personal bank account, but not to the business account. They bill for work that they do not complete and they also change their prices on a whim once they have your vehicle. They charged me an excess of $1,100 just to inspect my transmission but never split my transmission open to inspect it. When I picked my vehicle up the transmission was still factory sealed. The owner Sammy bragged about how rich he is and how lucrative his business is due to evading taxes and billing for work that was never performed.

Keith is an upstanding guy, and he has put together a team of honest and competent mechanics. I trust their diagnostics and the work they do. They stand behind it. And then there are the special touches... when we had to drop our car off for repair before taking an emergency trip out of town, Keith returned the car to our home before we returned and worried about payment later. If he learns of a recall, he informs us so that we don't end up paying him for service a dealer should do.

I am a very picky person when it comes to cars (I own a Porsche) and quality of service. That said,…read moreErnie's Garage is the pinnacle of automobile garage and I'm really not exaggerating. Allow me to prove it to you: Let me start by talking about the cleanliness of the shop and mechanics. The place is very Very clean and organized (and I'm personally OCD with this). Even when they have a lot going on the are able to keep everything neat and to me that already says a lot. The mechanics are a professional duo (I think I'll call them the Doctors) because they are amazingly good when it comes to diagnosing your vehicle problem even when its a hidden problem, and regardless of your vehicle make (combined they know everything). You really won't go wrong with any of them because at the end they collaborate really well in whatever case you bring, and the best part of it is that THEY ARE VERY HONEST. Honesty is everything when it comes to your car repair and believe me, transparency is included in the price. Prices are fair, maybe a little on the higher side but again... I can asure that you can trust their diagnosis and labor. Quick story: On my first Porsche repair I took it to 1) Porsche Dealer but prices where impossibly high and diagnosis/repair quote had too many parts and didn't make sense to me so I left. 2) Then I tried a 'Porsche Certified Garage' and prices where lower but still I felt something was off on the diagnosis list. I regret not taking my car to Ernie's in the first place, they knew what was the problem by my description even before seeing the car and their quote/list was just what my vehicle needed (nothing less, nothing more). Their price was way better and the job very reliable. I have brought in my two cars several (3-7) times (I also have a Toyota) for different tuneup/maintenance and motor (and electric) fixes. On both my cars I've been trusting my cars and left extremely satisfied. They fixed my cars before driving to Iowa and back, twice. Also, they can diagnose your car immediately, find the right parts for you and fix it within a reasonable time (very quick). On top of that all of the employees are very kind, respectful and full of joy. They are eager to help you no matter whats your situation. I even had the opportunity to meet the owner which was also very understanding and helpful. The manager has a great system in place, he's always present, very friendly and will also take good care of you. On a side note, this garage has a Car Wash/Detailing tunnel attached to it ('SpongeBrothers') which I also strongly recommend. I drive my cars through every week and they really treat you like a VIP. They have one of the best Car Detailer Celebrity I know of in CT, who uses the finest products on your car. Feel free to trust you car's paint to them. Over the past 2 years they've seem to keep finding ways to improve their service. They have uHauls for rent and before COVID-19 they even had complimentary coffee that I actually miss. Their bathroom is simple, spacious and very clean in my experience. The lounge/waiting room could use an update but in general it's always clean and feels ok (there is a massage chair if you're into that). I took my time to test their consistency on their excellent service and as a frequent costumer I can give faith of it. My only complain would be the use of a face mask, due to the current pandemic they started using it but I've noticed a lack of consistency with this manner. Still, they use gloves and seem to respect social distancing protocols. Usually I don't spend time writing reviews but my satisfaction with Ernie's Garage has really earned it and I'm sure there are other 'picky' costumers like me looking for a shop like this. If they keep their services consistent as described here (up until today), be sure that they will have me as a loyal costumer. Lastly, If I where to have a business like this it would definitely be like Ernie's Garage specially for their great service and friendly employees. If you are skeptical of my 'super' positive review, don't take my word and please go prove it for yourself. Thanks! EC
