I needed an oil change today, so I started calling around and came across this shop. From the moment I called, the experience was great. Within five minutes, they gave me a clear, reasonable price with no hassle. When I arrived, they had my oil change done in less than 10 minutes. The entire team was professional, friendly, and welcoming. I wish I knew the name of the gentleman who helped me because he provided excellent service. As a woman, I especially appreciated how respectful and straightforward they were. I never felt pressured or talked down to.

Unfortunately, a terrible first experience with this shop…read more I took my car in for a service because my dealer was booked and this shop was local to one of my offices. When I picked up my vehicle, there were several issues. There was a scratch on one of the rear panels, I found a bag of McDonalds in the back and my floor mats were dirty. When I inquired about the technician that was working on my vehicle, I found out that the gentleman was neither certified or experienced with Mercedes-Benz. I will never come back, then to top it all I was charged $153 more than what I was quoted!

I initially took my 1969 VW to Germany's Best in August 2025 because my vehicle was stalling and…read moreseemed to be experiencing electrical and fuel issues. Paul had my vehicle for three days, quoted me $2200 and listed several issues with my vehicle (many of which I was expecting). When I went to pick up my vehicle, my bill totaled $2900 with no explanation for the extra $700 in extra charges. Also, the bill did not list an hourly rate for labor. To add insult to injury, Paul gave me a laundry list of other issues with my vehicle to bring it back in for further service (keep in mind this is a humble Beetle). This should have raised huge red flags and caused me to question this shop before I took out my card to pay for Paul's services. However, I was glad to have my vehicle running and paid and made a mental note of these questionable things. I drove my car for two weekends without an issue. Two weeks later, my car failed to start. I called Germany's Best, and one of their junior mechanics, Luis, agreed to take the car back in to re-evalute the car for things they may have neglected during service. Two weeks went by with no news. Two months went by, then five months... Keep in mind, my husband and I called and even went by to check on the car to see what was going on. After five and half months, I had AAA go and attempt to tow the car. Luis--who is a very nice and conscientious young man--informed my husband that the vehicle had water in the fuel tank when he went by with AAA the first time. My husband was going to have the shop service it, but after this whole rigamarole; we decided against doing further business with the likes of Paul. I finally had AAA tow my vehicle away from this shop today, upon which time Paul informed me that he had fallen ill and was now just gaining mobility. Now, this may be true; but he could have told me this at some point in this five and half month period in which my car sat there unserviced and unattended. Completely unacceptable service. The AAA driver told me that I am not the first customer he has witnessed tow their vehicle away from this shop in a similar fashion!

I took my bmw to Germany's best after another mechanic installed the wrong battery in my car…read moreleaving me stranded, as a woman in some sketch areas, on multiple occasions and I couldn't understand what was going on. I decided to take my car to this garage because it seemed worth it to pay a little extra for a more specialized service for my car. The guys that I dealt with were very friendly and polite, and demonstrated a level of competency that was reassuring after having such a bad experience at the mechanic before that. I was frazzled when I came in because I was preparing for a move and handling some family difficulties as I was trying to leave the bay, my only home I know, for good, and I really appreciated the lack of judgement that I encountered there. Some people have not been so kind on this journey. Oddly my brakes are still squeaking and I'm not sure why, as I had hoped this would be repaired by them, but when I took my car back in it decided not to squeak, making me look like a crazy person. They told me not to worry, that they would certainly take care of it if I could take a recording of the noise and bring it back to them. Turns out it only really happens when it's cold out so mostly at night. I'm glad I'm not going crazy lol and I made a recording and will be taking it back in to have it hopefully resolved.
