Greg’s Automotive Certified Services

I have taken my cars to Gregs for over 3 years. He has always been honest and straightforward with any service required for my car the work has also been done properly with no follow up issues. I will continue taking our family cars here. It’s hard to find a good mechanic the you can trust. I trust Greg with my car.

I have had both good and bad with them. So I am in the middle.
First, I found out my truck break lights went out and took it in. They figured out the problem and repaired it the same day. However since some of my brake lights were also blown. they claimed they couldn’t let the truck go unless all the lights were replaced. This could be true by law I am not sure. Either way they diagnosed and got the job done the same day and I picked up my car that night.
Second, I was disappointed in them on this one. I called to see about scheduling my car for a tune up. I proceed to ask them how much a typical tune up would cost for my car. The person on the phone almost sounded disgusted that I even asked that question. Like «I can’t believe your calling and then asking for a quote». He said he would call me back and I never heard back from them again. I live on a budget so I need to know what to prepare for. Sometimes people trying to make money just don’t understand that.
Would I go back, yes and no. It depends on the situation. They get the job done when needed and professionally. Just don’t ask for a price. You may get scoffed at.

Decided to go here because it was close to my home. Initially I just wanted a estimate. They where so willing to work with me that I left my car there 10 minutes after getting there. My exhaust sounds amazing and it’s all thanks to them. Stop on by it will be worth your while.

Good guys. Good shop.

I phoned this fella at the recommendation of a local bike shop to ask about getting a trailer hitch installed. His price on the hitch itself (a Curt aftermarket hitch, which is what everyone uses) was higher than the installed price from the most expensive other installer I spoke to. All in he was nearly 2x the price that I’m paying elsewhere. Pass.

This is a truly professional enterprise with a genuine small town trustworthy feel. I am lucky to have Greg’s Automotive and Muffler Repair Shop 2 minutes from my home but I would travel out of my way to patronize Greg’s. They did a quick job on my exhaust system and my old car is suddenly sounding like its younger self.
Muffler shops unfortunately garner much notoriety for shabby work and tacking on unnecessary charges.

At the recommendation of a local bike shop, I took my SUV to Greg’s because I needed a trailer hitch so that we could add a bike rack. I received excellent service for a reasonable price. I dropped off the car, walked to the nearby Starbucks for a bit and then returned to find it all ready for me. I will be back and definitely recommend this place.

Great shop, honest mechanics. Customer service is excellent. Be up front and tell them exaclty what you want repaired. They do excellent work, never had a probelm and i take all 3 of my vehicles there. They do great exhaust /​muffler work too, old and new cars. Remenber if you treat your mechanic with respect, they will in turn treat you very well. I reccomend this place.

I recommend you use caution with this shop. My child is a student at nearby St Marys College and her car was towed here at the recommendation of AAA after the car failed to start. They told her she would need at least $ 120 of diagnostic tests to ID the problem, eventually diagnosing a dead battery that would then cost $ 130. Their website states they have 30 years of automotive experience. I think most people would agree that diagnosing a dead battery takes about 5 minutes and really shouldn’t cost $ 250. Again, use caution.

NEVER GO HERE. After refusing to repair a weld they had done which had cracked, these guys told me that, among other things, my car needed new exhaust hangers and front brakes and rotors. Considering these guys are so called «professionals» (HA!) i went out and bought new front brakes. When i went home and got my front wheels off my car, i noticed that i still had about half my brake pads left. Obviously, this made me upset considering i am on a tight budget and had spent my money on new pads i didn’t need. The next thing i did was i checked the exhaust hangers, which were PERFECT. There wasn’t a problem with any of them. AT this point, I’m pissed off, so i call Greg’s, only to have them deny telling me they said my brakes and exhaust hangers were bad, and then they hung up on me while i was talking to them. Stay away from this place. They’re just out to rip you off and get your money. Horrible customer service, dishonest work, disrespectful staff, and high prices. I would give this place negative stars if i could. I wouldn’t go there if THEY paid ME. Save yourself the time, money and trouble people. Go to a REAL shop that values your service, and won’t rip you off.

Based on a recent visit, beware of the «sell up» in this establishment! yes you might need something done. However, just maybe the recommendation from greg’s is more than is needed, sooner than its needed, and with a large measure of doom and gloom predicted should you fail to heed the warnings.
After leaving Greg’s we consulted a long time mechanic in the town from which we moved who had serviced the car on an ongoing basis. Our former mechanic, with nothing to gain, walked us each recommendation from Greg’s…We chose to pass on all of them as either unnecessary or premature.
We won’t be going back to Greg’s. Ever.
