Auto Repair 4 Less

This place is awesome! I’ve been here a few times (nail in my tire, loose belt, and after a fender bender) and every time they’ve been great. The wait time is typically minimal, the prices are reasonable, everyone is very professional.
After being rear-​ended, the mechanic took a look and determined there wasn’t really any damage, other than the light over the license plate and was able to fix it easily and didn’t charge me. I was so grateful for their help and was happy to know there are still good people out there!!!
I highly recommend this business and will return here anytime I need work done on my car.

After becoming fed up with the trek out to the dealer I decided to look closer to home. This place is mere moments away and I’ve never had a problem with them.
Service: 1^st time was for some random thingy that makes something go under the hood. I’d researched what it was and what it normally cost and this place was right on point. 2^nd time was for a frayed belt; service was flawless. 3^rd time was for a routine oil change. All three times they fixed everything quickly and charged a fair price. Much better than the dealer.
Facility: Very clean. Easy to miss and easy to think it might be sketchy based on the exterior but everything is professional. They can accommodate maybe 3 cars at once. I usually drop mine off and they call me when it’s ready. Wait time is far shorter than the dealer.
People: Every quote was accurate and I found the employees to be pleasant and professional.
Verdict: Will use them for all non major repairs.

Love the straightforward answers from them. I also love that the many times of been (since around 2006), they fix the problem and, when I have other quotes, they come in much lower. They work to have the most relevant and up-​to-​date equipment for today’s cars… which I know isn’t cheap for them. Even oil changes are no-​fuss and more affordable than the big chains. I’ve made two referrals so far and have received positive feedback and many thanks.

I had my Sentra’s 2007 starter replaced here about 3 years back, they gave me a 2 year warranty on the starter, which died about a year ago, so they replaced it for me free of charge, and then gave my car a nice top off on fluids, definitely appreciated! Needless to say, I come back from time to time to get an honest opinion.

These guys did a super job on my Tacoma truck. They installed the lift kit for $ 300, in addition to that they gonna check them after 1000miles which is pretty good.
I always go there even for a small work like installing lights, grill, etc.
I would highly recommend it.

My fiancé first tried this place less than 6 months ago to have the wiper fluid line repaired. It’s worked ever since. Having poor experience w/​jiffy lube, I thought I’d go back for an oil change & support business in my area. MISTAKE!
I called Sat and was advised if I arrived by 5:30p today, no problem. Upon arrival, The guy first checked his watch, then said ok. The only conversation was to tell me synthetic oil would be used. It’s my car, I know this.
My car was in and out in less than 20 minutes. Hmmmm. The owner (?) motioned me over to step inside & pay…$ 100! What?
7 quarts of oil $ 80, $ 5 washer fluid, coolant-​which I didn’t ask for nor was I advised AND $ 15 labor. Am I at the dealer? I said you’re kidding me, but he wasn’t. I stated I wasn’t pleased w/​the cost & he rambled some non-​descripti reply & offered no explanation when I said I didn’t ask for wiper fluid. Which by the way, was already full!!!
I left feeling I’d been taken advantage of, and strongly suggest going elsewhere for any auto work,

Just had my jeep repaired from here again. I go here off and on depending on repairs. Always a fair price, this time had my car towed for me and fixed my car after it overheated before the day closed.
I’ve went here in the past my car is old, 99 keep with almost 250k miles on it. When I’ve had it inspected by autorepair4less last year they had to replace my starter after my car wouldn’t start. They noticed a small oil leak and that’s what over time cause the starter to fail. Informed me with the age and miles on car the price of the fix wouldn’t be worth the car and with the small leak that it had. I appreciate and continue to go to a business when it tells me honest answers like that. Thanks again!

This place is great. They took me on a moment’s notice twice in a 2 week time frame. Took care of what I needed right away and their charge was extremely reasonable. Seem to be very knowledgeable.

We have taken our car here on short notice several times. Everyone that helped us was knowledgeable, courteous and able to do the work needed quickly.
After rats ate through the battery leads under the hood (seriously) they fixed the leads in under an hour and for a reasonable price.
I highly recommend this repair shop.

Well, the first headlight I had done here is still going strong.
The second one… we’ll see. Had it replaced Friday, then ON MY DRIVE HOME it goes out. Back to the shop Tuesday and they say it’s the connector and that’ll be $ 45 on top of what I already paid for the bulb. Sure, but was it that all along? Not so happy I decided to be lazy and take it in instead of going to buy a bulb myself.
I did actually get a receipt for the connector though, so if that goes wrong at least I have something.

STILL LOVE LOVE LOVE these guys… The only time I «stray» (to Albany Auto, also GREAT) is when they are too busy…

I have been going to Nick for years. He is a very honest, knowledgeable, and reliable businessman. I have taken my BMW, Mercedes, and girlfriend’s Audi to him with always zero complaints! I would recommend him for any car repair. Amazing work here with no BS! He is also very competitively priced.

Buyer beware. My cousin took her car here (at my request because it was close) for routine oil change and check up, next thing you know they cracked a pipe and $ 1000 in damage they accused her of doing. Smh
Trustworthy they are not.

This place is a ripoff. I brought my car here twice. The first time was because my AC stopped working. They charged reasonably for a new compressor.
One month later I brought the car back in because again the AC wasn’t blowing cold air. Rather than fixing the problem, they claimed that the problem was now the condenser. I also brought it in because the blinkers worked intermittently.
Two months and $ 2,500 later. AC doesn’t blow cold and blinkers have stopped working altogether.
What a ripoff.

This is a very odd place. I brought one car here for a broken taillight and the price/​service seemed very reasonable to me. When I brought a second car in for electrical problem they charged me what I thought was too much and were unable to fix the problem. All in all though the owner seems like a pretty good guy. As mechanics go this place is OK although I do have very low expectations when it comes to mechanics lol. If I could, I think I would give this place a 3.5 star.
Yeah, now that I read the review I can see it is pretty worthless. I like it but I don’t lol. ahh well.

Terrible customer service, cheap inferior parts, overcharging, no responsibility.
Longer story:
Last October my motorcycle battery died, so I brought it here to have a new one installed. I usually go to a motorcycle shop for repairs, but I didn’t want to pay for towing and how hard could a battery installation be?
I didn’t realize at the time, but the mechanic charged me double for the battery, which was a cheap, crappy brand. I was also charged for $ 100 in labor, when another shop said they usually charge $ 20 for this type of labor.
I put the bike in winter storage at a motorcycle shop, where they kept it charged all winter. This spring, I tried riding the bike, but the battery wouldn’t start after a day of being out of storage. The motorcycle shop tested the battery and found it was faulty.
So I return to Auto Repair 4 Less. I asked about the warranty, I asked why I was charged so much. I get mumbled non-​answers. They’re stonewalling me; they don’t keep track of any paperwork.
They weren’t going to fix their mistake, so I towed my bike to the motorcycle shop, where they guarantee to fix their mistakes and keep track of warranties.
The towing plus battery installation at the other place was in total cheaper than my bill at this place. Thanks 4 nothing.

I am really surprised that this place does not have all 5 star reviews. I took my truck here expecting to hear that my truck was not worth fixing because it was barely moving when I pressed the gas. In literally less than 10 seconds he told me I needed a new clutch. I honestly didn’t believe anyone could figure out what was wrong that fast but he was right! My truck runs better than ever! He had it ready the next morning and he even filled my oil for free and lowered my bill a little bit to help me out. I honestly am so grateful and happy with this place! Any repair or maintenance work I need in the future I will definitely come here first. I highly recommend this place!

Very pleased with Auto Repair 4 Less. Besides, the fact that it’s 3 blocks away (big convenience factor), they really helped me in a pinch.
Went for my annual checkup at the Honda dealership and was told that my timing belt was cracking and needed to be replaced IMMEDIATELY for $ 775. Given that I bring my car there every fall and have never heard this before, I was livid. So I asked the garage manager in my building for a recommendation and he got on the phone with Auto Repair 4 Less, who had recently repaired his car, and they quoted $ 450 for my timing belt. I went in the next morning and they knew exactly who I was and took care of me. They finished my car in a few hours even though the Honda dealership said it would take a few days. Very friendly and obviously a great price.
The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the new windshield wipers they installed are a little squeaky. I’ll go back and have them adjust the wipers. I’m sure they’ll be very nice about it based on my prior experience.

Seriously you can’t go wrong with this place. I have done all the work on all my vehicles up until we moved out here and couldn’t work on them anymore. Dreading having to pay some place to do work that I know I can easily do in just the same amount of time was causing me headaches.
I called this place up in the morning, asked for a rough estimate to change the front pads. $ 130 out the door. Seemed reasonable to me. You figure average pads cost about 35 – 40 bucks and labor around 90 – 100 an hour. Ok cool.
I get there and they ask if I have the parts or not. This blows my mind knowing that I can bring the parts in and just pay for their labor and not the jacked up parts prices. I make a quick trip to AutoZone. Pick up the lifetime warranty pads for 30 return and have them install them. Said it should take about 45 min to an hour. Cool. I get home (a 10 min walk). Literally 5 minutes later they call saying the car is ready. I’m bamboozled at how quick these guys are. 75 dollars later and I’m pleased as punch with my entire experience here.
Granted they aren’t the easiest to understand, they are more than accommodating and lightening quick. Without a doubt I’ll return should I need anymore work done.
a HUGE upside, literally a 1 minute walk to the Sheridan Red Line stop

This place is 2 blocks from my house. I normally wouldn’t risk taking my car to a random auto mechanic and the front façade looked a little sketchy, but due to the weather I needed a place nearby.
Let me tell you that I’m so happy I checked this place out. They took my car right away. I needed a new pump for my windshield wiper fluid and they were able to order the part and the job was done in less than a few hours.
The guys over there were more than helpful and very courteous. I would definitely recommend this place and would take my car back there if any other issues arise. (keeping my fingers crossed they don’t)
Never judge a book by its cover.
