The customer service was horrible. I went to have me car looked at because the check engine light was on. And the Jamaican employee told me while still sitting down to just leave the key and come back. I asked him who does that. He said he doesnt work like that I just leave it and when I get back hell tell me whats wrong with it. From there they conversation went completely left and he said Im not going to work on your vehicle. The whole ordeal was horrible
Anthony was great, he was very polite and helpful... I was attended to the moment I got there, he made sure everything was done 100% right, took his time, and made sure that before I left I was comfortable with the work that was done and knew it was done right. I definitely recommend bringing your car over to his shop.
I must say Anthony and his Mechanics are truly the best and go above and beyond to make sure your satisfied, All my questions was answered even if I asked over and over. Ive had my share of mechanics and some just dont get it. Be Honest with your Customers, It will keep the business open.
It is very unlikely that you run across an honest auto repair shop ESPECIALLY AS A FEMALE, unless you go to Anthony’s auto repair. Fast reliable and honest service ... from management down to the mechanics. Everyone is a pleasure! Accurate diagnoses and fair prices!!!
Im not sure about the numerous 5 star reviews, but here is my story. One morning my battery was dead and while my neighbor was kind enough to give me a jump, I decided to take my car (2013 VW GLI) to Anthonys. When I arrived, I explained that my battery was dead, but more importantly that the car was suffering from intermittent extended crank for the last couple of months and one of the daytime running lights was out. I left the car at the shop and received a call later in the day, stating that I definitely need a new alternator and a new battery and that after these parts were put in, they can diagnose the extended crank issue. We agreed on the price of $700, which would include a new alternator, new battery, and a the replacement of my day time running light. Later in the same day, I received another call stating that the socket for the light was damaged and since its dealer part they couldnt find a replacement part. I agreed to find the part and to bring the actual light bulb as well. The following day he called and said that the car was ready and starting perfect. I went to the shop and once I started the car the extended crank was still evident, but Anthony told me that this is normal and all I would need was a tune-up with new spark plugs. I told him that the issue might be the fuel pump, but he quickly dismissed that notion. Once I popped the hood, I noticed that they broke my battery cover and even though Anthony denied any wrong doing he agreed to find a replacement. I took my car out of the shop and later in the day noticed that when they took out the front light assembly, they didnt put the grill back correctly and that there were scratches on the light assembly itself as if someone was using a screw driver in order to remove it. I went back to the shop the following day and of course Anthony denied scratching the light assembly, but he did reinstall the front grill. I once again stated that underlying issue of extended crank was there and once again Anthony claimed that this has to be the spark plugs. Next week, I personally changed the spark plugs and as expected this didnt fix the problem. Then, after an extensive internet research, I was able to confirm that the problem was indeed being caused by a faulty in-tank fuel pump. I ordered the part, installed it and fortunately this fixed the extended crank problem. I was also able to locate the light bulb socket and installed it myself without having to remove the entire light assembly. So, if Anthony knew anything about cars and was able to diagnose them properly, he would have known that the entire light assembly didnt have to come out in order to replace a light bulb and the underlying cause of the extended crank was the fuel pump as suggested by me and NOT the spark plugs as he vehemently believed. The truth is that I dont know if I did or didnt need a new alternator but what I do know is that Anthony isnt qualified to diagnose any of the more complicated issues, he will damage your vehicle while working on it and he will try and talk over you every chance he gets.
IF YOU ARE A WOMEN DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE !!!!!!!!! I took my car here 8 in the morning to get it checked out and serviced. I LEFT MY CAR FOR TWO DAYS ! STILL NO WORK DONE. YOU CANT EVEN CALL AND INQUIRE BECAUSE ANTHONY THE OWNER WILL TELL YOU IF YOU CANT WAIT COME PICK UP YOUR CAR. THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT FOREIGN CARS. VERY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL !!!!!!! IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW MECHANIC DONT I REPEAT DONT COME HERE !!!!!!!!! DONT WASTE YOURE TIME !!!!!!

2021-12-24This is the worst shop to bring your car, they will take money from the warranty without repairing the car. I wish I could give 0 star to describe my experience with them.

2021-06-19I’d love to come back here for other issues I may need help resolving. Although it was only ab arrival for a wheel alignment, the company was very reasonable, friendly, and accurate in they were doing. Recommend this place, for great info and great servicing.

2019-02-16When my regular mechanic retired I had to deal with the dreadful search to find a mechanic I could trust and with reasonable prices. Luckily I didnt have to travel but a few blocks from my place. I had/have several things that needed to be tended to in my car but I cant afford to do it all at once. Anthony told me whats most important, what Ill need and what can wait. His shop provides the breakdown of cost ( which was very reasonable) and does work in a timely manner. He runs a flexible shop with nice and courteous employees and are even open on Saturdays til mid-afternoon. I have gone to this shop once and so far so good! My car runs smoothly and quietly...I have to go back and change my brakes and other things so Ill keep you guys updated with the work.... But so far this has been the best experience Ive had at a mechanic shop...no pressure, no tactics, no scams, just honest work so far! Keep up the great work!

2021-02-16On my way to NYC had a vibration in my front wheel that a mechanic on the turnpike said was a bad cv axle. Kept going and when I got home, I went to Anthonys to have it checked out after checking reviews of places around me. He personally test drove it, put it up on the lift and looked it over. Looks like the tire just needs rebalancing, so he recommended I take it to a tire place. I offered to pay him for checking it out, but he wouldnt take anything and only asked me to keep him in mind if I need work done. This is the garage to take your car to. My highest recommendation!
