I've had a deeply disappointing experience with Montclair Auto Repair…read more Over the course of one month, my check engine light came on three separate times. The first time, they replaced a spark plug, costing me about $200. Two weeks later, the light returned. This time a $687 repair for a completely different issue. Less than two weeks after that, the light came on again. On my third visit, even though their posted opening time is 9 a.m., the technician, Randy, didn't actually show up until after 9:08. He was rude, didn't greet me, and dismissed my concerns instead of offering any apology or empathy. He handed me a paper with another new code and quoted labor costs of $160, with no parts even required. Despite their supposed warranty, I've had to return repeatedly. Each time, a new code, a new cost, and dismissive treatment. Randy even remarked that my car is old and implied I should expect ongoing issues. Yet this doesn't excuse poor service. If I could give zero stars, I would. I can't recommend this shop to anyone looking for accountability or respect.

First time customer here. I found this shop on Google & made an appointment…read more.. At first , not gonna lie, I thought the price was a little high compared to what I'm used to paying for an oil change. I usually pay $85 and they were quoting me $130 here for just an oil change I have a 2010 Honda Element and needed a brake light bulb replaced too. They had a coupon available for the oil change so It brought it down to $129 for both oil & bulb What really impressed me was the communication. They sent text updates while my car was being worked on and provided a full digital inspection with photos and videos. They showed me my tires, air filter, battery, windshield wipers and other items they checked. They also provided quotes for future maintenance without any pressure. As a woman, I really appreciated being able to actually see what they were talking about. Instead of just telling me something needed to be replaced... they showed me pictures. That made me feel a lot more comfortable and confident that I wasn't being sold something I didn't need. The shop itself is clean and modern. I also liked that there is a window where you can see them working on your vehicle. I've never had a mechanic provide this much information before. It gave me peace of mind knowing my car is in good shape and now I know what items I should keep an eye on for the future. I feel like I got more of a premium service, especially with their diagnostic test so the price I paid makes sense I will definitely be back. Their name is Stress-Free Auto for a reason

Writing an updated review to highlight the exceptional customer service I received in response to…read moremy original review. The owner reached out directly and sent his personal number so we could chat. I explained my experience, he apologized for the misunderstanding on the shop's end, and provided me a refund for the overcharge. He also offered mechanic advice should I need any in the future - even if I didn't go with his shop. My family has used the shop before and had a good experience so I do believe my experience was a fluke. I respect the fact that he made the situation right, it shows he takes pride in his shop and values his customers.

We were looking for a new, local, honest mechanic and I think we found one in Mike Akbar. We saw…read moreMike in IG and liked his message. We stopped in (bc we had to) two days before Xmas. We had unknown engine problems, there was a knocking sound in the engine, and our lights were out. Mike quoted us a price, fixed the car and had it back in one day, before Xmas, and under the price he quoted us. Now, I'm sure that's good sales tactics, 'quote high and bill low' but there were a few things he could have done to the car... that I asked him to do, that didn't need to be done. I asked him to replace the fog lights but they were working properly and don't need it (my d.a. didn't know there was a trick to turning them on!). I also asked for a quote for shocks and struts as the guys from "Bep Poys" have been telling me I need to get done. His quote was half of the price I got from "my three best friends," and he said he's going to shop for a better/lower price for the parts. We also had a great conversation about things other than car repair: archeology, theology, family, vintage cars, and the holidays. We had a few similar opinions and a few different but we had a great, intelligent conversation about a lot of interesting subjects. I really like the fact that my new mechanic has an honest and efficient shop and a thoughtful, say knowledgeable, and reasonable head on his shoulders. All in all, I fully recommend Mike and his shop and I'm actually looking forward to taking my car back in the shop! Ha! Thank Mike & Crew

Thank you George for taking the time to speak with us and sharing good information. Today I called them to schedule an appointment. I spoke with Danny. He was very kind and helpful. He provided specific instructions via videos on what we need to do when dropping off the vehicle. His extra attention and care was much appreciated. Thank you Danny for your time and efforts. Even though my Mom's van has not been fixed yet, I know George, Danny, and their crew will take good care of it. Thank you everyone in advance. I'll do an updated review after the fix.
