Meineke Car Care Center

I took my wife’s car in for brake work. Dave, the owner, called to tell me my brakes were fine. No work needed. Picked up the car and there was no charge. You cannot beat that for honesty. I’ll be sure and take all my cars to him for work.

Can’t say enough good things about the folks here. I’ve had my car serviced and repair work done there. Dave Fuller is always helpful when making an appointment. Highly recommended.

They really do have excellent customer service. I’ve been taking my car there for over 2 years and have never once been overcharged or told I needed a service I didn’t really need. Recently I had gotten a brake job done, which isn’t cheap, and a few days later I had an issue with some rubber tubing in my engine and they took care of it no charge. The owner is excellent and will always be straight with you. I highly recommend them for car service

It’s always difficult to find a local mechanic or a shop you can trust, and I feel like this is especially true in central NJ, which is packed with chains like Firestone, National Tire and Battery, STS, Midas, Meineke, etc etc.
I first got to try out this shop when I ordered new tires from Tirerack, and this shop was the local authorized installer, and they had the best price around for installing and balancing the tires. So I went there, and I discovered a very friendly place — they were very polite, prompt, and didn’t charge me a single penny over estimate. No surprises at all.
Then I returned there with a car where I needed to have an oxygen sensor replaced. I already had the part, and they were fine with that — they simply installed my own part no questions asked. That’s kind of rare these days, as mechanics often charge extra for labor if you bring your own parts.
Recently, I came in there with an exhaust problem — my exhaust rusted out and split in half. I have an older Mercedes with 3 mufflers, and it’s an expensive exhaust to replace. I asked them to bypass 2 of the mufflers with a straight pipe and just leave one muffler at the end. They went along with it, fabricated a properly bent exhaust pipe, and installed it. They fixed my exhaust for around $ 200 when it would have been closer to $ 1,000 if I had to replace the whole exhaust (which is what any other shop would have made me do).
Meineke of Bordentown is a well-​managed shop, with a pleasant waiting room (AC and cable, what else do you need?). Dave, who is the service writer/​attendant, has a great attitude and a great personality. Always professional and pleasant to deal with.
In summary, this shop is awesome, and I really can trust these guys to not rip me off, to do the job well, and to be punctual.

Sent my tires here for mounting and balancing and also got an oil change. Found out about this garage from TireRack’s list of approved and well-​recommended installers.
Very courteous staff. I was skeptical as they first suggested an alignment, but I asked that they check it first. They went through a good amount of effort to check it, found that it was pretty much in spec and told me I didn’t need one. Thanks!!!
It took a little longer than I wanted, but I also showed up a little late.
