Lambert’s Auto Repair

I had the left front tire blow out on me going down the highway. After the roadside assistance changed to my spare I needed to find another tire. I also noticed my two rear tires were getting worn and wouldn’t pass next months inspection. So I called around to the major companies in the Massachusetts area and they all quoted me incredibly high prices I just couldn’t afford being on social security and only able to work one or two days a week.
I was driving by Lamberts gas & service station and saw a few tire racks and a sign stating «We Sell Tires». So I decided what the heck. I’ll check here. Talk about nostalgia. It was like I was a kid again. Literally a mom & pop station with a gas attendant but self service prices. I talked to a mechanic named Jay and he got on the phone and in 5 minutes quoted me a price that was half, literally half the price the other companies quoted. I didn’t hesitate one second. He had the tires that afternoon. Mounted, balanced and ready for winter in an hour. These are good name brand tires too. Not some cheap retread. I’ve since taken all my business to Lamberts. Brakes, tune ups, all of it done right and at incredibly reasonable rates. I have no personal affiliation with this business whatsoever so this is a valid review. There really are «honest» mechanics left and they’re at Lamberts.

I took my car to Lamberts today, after hearing a very scary sounding noise from the front end of my SUV. Thinking I was in the hole to the tune of maybe $ 1000 or more for some extensive front end work, I wondered, where do I take it? We never have automotive repairs. So I decided to head to Lamberts, after hearing a few other people recommend them.
When they called the following day to let me know the damage, and the cost, I was prepared for the worst. The owner, Larry, told me the news: $ 260. I needed a new wheel bearing on the left front end. I said, is that it? Then I quickly corrected myself, adding, is that all that’s wrong with it? He said yes, that’s all that’s wrong with it.
Getting the car back was easy, and I am pleased to report it runs fine now. Larry and company could have taken me for hundreds more — but they didn’t. This is a first class shop and more importantly, they are trustworthy. They will service all of our cars from now on.
