My dad asked me to write a review for his mechanic, Bob Smith who owns "The Garage in New Brighton." These are his words: "I came to New Brighton 30 years ago and looked for a place I could trust to take care of my car because I am not mechanical. I checked prices in nearby places and found that The Garage had competitive prices. I found the group of mechanics to be responsive, reliable, and honest. Over the years, I brought 5 cars and a pick up truck (the same one for 25 years) to them. How wonderful to have a place where you could count on to be taken care of! Appointments were easy to make, they would transport me if needed, they always got my approval before doing anything and I got honest advice. There was never a failure in service or in quality. They were happy to explain things, were able to do so clearly and were never bothered by my questions. It was not just what they did that was important but how they did it. I had such ease of mind knowing The Garage and Bob were my mechanics these last 30 years." Sincerely,...
Read moreI discovered this shop from the Nextdoor app whilst looking for a reliable mechanic in my area. All of the reviews were 100% actuate! This is the only shop I will ever call. I have an older Honda and was having some issues, I brought it in and they checked it over thoroughly at no cost. Finally because the issue was the starter, it went out and I had my car towed in. They spent time with me as I was considering a new ride with all my questions and concerns inclining reviews of the models I was considering. End result my car has a new starter and a clean bill to keep driving which is a huge relief (who wants to used car shop in -11 temps). I can't say enough positive things about this place! They are honest, patient, affordable and reliable. On the trip back to the shop with one of the mechanics I had a wonderful discussion on career paths and cars as well so I know they also employ great people. As a single woman without adequate space to do larger car repairs at home I've...
Read moreSo I went here because I read a great review about a woman who wasn't charged for a sound when nothing turned up wrong when they could have easily sold her in things. So I brought my just bought 2000 f150 for an oil change and asked to take a look at my loud exhaust leak. They came back and said it's prob just a missing bolt and would take care of it and was only charged 10 dollars it was great then then said I need to show u something and brought me under the luft and showed me my frame is almost completely rusted through. It sickened me I just paid 2000$ that I spent all winter breaking my back doing snow removal in my neighborhood to make that, it was every penny I made so now I'm a single father with no vehicle and spent every penny i had and now also I had all sorts of work lined up for the spring. Now I have nothing. No way to work no way to get anywhere and no way to make money but I would def suggest these honest guys...
