Hi Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. We apologise for not meeting your expectations. However we did notify you that the car would not be completed the same day. We did agree on the completion time of 5 pm the following day. My apologies for any confusion. I hope we can rectify the misunderstanding. Contact me anytime at the shop.

Thank you for giving us a review. Your Toyota Rav 4 was brought in for a State Inspection. We did perform a NYS inspection according to the guidelines. You failed for no brakes and worn tires. All finding are documented and texted to you. I am surprised that you think TLC would have passed the car for inspection in that condition. We don't just give out stickers.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to give us a review. I am sorry we could not accommodate you without an appointment. The best way to get an inspection is making an appointment during the middle of the month to beat the rush. If you like to speak to me, call the office and ask for Chris. Have a great day!

Hi Hugo, Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. Upon our maintenance inspection, we noticed oil leak on your 1999 Honda CRV. We are obligated to tell you the condition and maintenance of the vehicle. I am sorry that you do not agree with our findings. I am more than happy to look over the Honda personally with you to verify our finding. Please call me at the shop 718.863.6280 Chris
mechanics failed to identify dangerous front end suspension and axle issues
Business reply on Google
Hi Karl thank you for the review. We spoke about this in early February and I agreed to redo the wheel alignment. Now a shop told you the the axles are leaking grease. We checked and no grease was found leaking. You want us to install the axles for free. I feel like this is a shake down. I stand by my warranty for the wheel alignment. Chris

Hi Jack, thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am sorry you did not have a great experience at my shop. Please contact me because your name does is not in our database.

Shop refused to install customer-provided parts to force higher markup.
Business reply on Google
Thank you for the review. Yes our policy is not to install owners parts. One reason is liability and also you loose out on our 24 month, 24,000 mile nationwide warranty. We did not quote price because we would want to verify the problem first. Please feel free to call me anytime. Chris

We really want to apologize for any miscommunication that occurred here, Jason. Under no circumstances would we ever blatantly lie to our customers -- we told you exactly what our computer system read. There is a possibility that was an incorrect read, and for that we must apologize. We wish you would've had a better experience here -- since 1944, we've built our business on being trustworthy. We're truly sorry you didn't have a better experience. Please let us know if there's anything else we can do. -Jerry & Son Auto Service
