You need a wheel bearing [I promptly forgot the name] but it'll become obvious when the sound gets louder." So off I went, psyched to drive for a little longer without immediately putting the car in the shop. The minute the car does start making the annoying sound I'm looking forward to coming here because what an honest, great set of people. A++

I found SafeT Auto when looking for a place that used Snap Finance…read more I was impressed by the number of stars and good reviews that others had given so I called them. Neil was so sincere, honest and knowledgeable when talking to me about the many repairs my can needed. He organized and guided me with the order of importance to make sure I had a safe vehicle to drive! As a woman, its very easy to be taken advantage of however,I never once felt that he was trying to "get over on me" and just take my money! I genuinely felt that he really cared about my safety and keeping my vehicle running well! I will recommend SafeT Auto in Wallingford to everyone and will keep coming back!

The receptionist Neil is very courteous and provides detail explanations. This was my second…read moreappointment with Saf T Auto Wallingford. My first delt with a repair in relation to a loud noise from what I was explained was a bearing issue in the rear. Along with a new alignment and other services, the repairs were made at a very high cost. There was no noice and the car was in good shape. In a few months, the same exact noise returned. I returned it to Saf T Auto only to discover that the caliper was "frozen" and I needed more repairs that would cost $1,300 +. It was explained that the bearing was not the issue this time around. It was the caliper. I decided that alone should be fixed because I simply could not afford to pay the larger cost. I was assured the caliper replacement would fix the issue with the noise. After the repairs, I picked up my vehicle and drove off and immediately my alert AWD light came on. I returned back to the Saf T Auto where they fixed the alert light. After traveling less than two minutes, the same exact noise that was the issue to begin with returned. I contacted Neil. He said that the bearings will have to be changed after all. I refused to pay for additional services because the part was under warranty by Saf T Auto. Neil concede that it was and explained that it will be fixed at all cost in three more days. What troubled me the most was that the underlined issue of the noise conming from the rear was never repaired after I was assured that the caliper was the issue. And to insinuate that the bearings needed to be changed at an additional cost intially then to confirm that they were under warranty after I refused to pay the cost is severely suspect. No apologies we're given. No "we will repair as soon as possible." I was told it was safe to drive around with damaged bearings. Somehow, I believe that is not an accurate statement. I'd give no stars if I could to reflect this second visit.

Luckily I know how to get the parts from my car, and so I brought it to him and his team was able to get my car back on the road quickly and looking even better than before! Everything was lined up and looking new and refreshed. He was able to redo my pin strips on my fenders, and blend the paint with the rest of the car so it all looks and feels fantastic! Will recommend this place for body work for sure!

It took a day to get my car fixed, and they kept me updated on changes in cost and timeline. And when they called to let me know my car was ready, they told me what other work it's going to need in the future, and gave me an estimate so I could save up for that point. I'm new to the area and felt comfortable asking them for advice on where I can get my emissions test done nearby and they also let me know they do oil changes for the future as well. They overall, very positive experience and I anticipate using Zoels as my go to shop from now on.

I parted ways with them and was introduced to an Auto dealer Through Facebook Market place, who was just one of many places who carried Automotive Edge in the cars and trucks they sold. I called Automotive Edge and was introduced to a man named Jon Marshall. After talking with Jon, And inspecting the awesome Truck we had been looking at, no hard sale, no intrusive approach, My wife and I asked If we could take a test drive, Jon Copied our licenses, and we were on the road! When we came back, we went into thee office and said "WE'RE SOLD" THE TRUCK IS A BEAUTY, it only has 65,400 miles on it, No rust AT ALL!!!, I saw the truck of my dreams, and it was $19,500. I felt that truck is worth every penny they were asking. The truck is so solid, I felt no need to barter with Jon, and most important no pressure The salesman walked me into thee office and went over very detail, I bought a 2 year extended warranty which I had purchased through Edge, and I even came out of the deal under my budget of $23,600 and I WAS HAPPY, AND MY WIFE IS HAPPY. I never left a dealership after purchasing a truck wanting to buy another.

Boston has…read morebeen taking it to NorthShore Autoworks , specializing in Bmw's, etc. they told her that she would need front brakes in future and oil pan leaking mildly . Could wait until this fall 2026. I bring it to Portland automotive and they tell me I have about 15 things that should be addressed , total of $7200. Somehow, I didn't feel comfortable with the service manager owner when I asked him if there was flexibility in pricing during a text exchange, he did not answer. He seemed annoyed when I asked him if the parts were OEM, there was no detail on the estimate, In this regard. I have driven BMWs for 20 years. So I just got a phone call from a very highly regarded Bmw mechanic in West Hartford, who is known for as honesty. He told me my brakes were 75% fine a little wire on the rotors on the front and a little less in the back, but nothing I had to address right away. Whereas Portland automotive told me I needed a complete thermostat sensor yada yada when they check the codes, this Mechanic and West Hartford said he would do less and then see what happens (instead of trying to gauge me.) what convinced me to get another opinion was reading the reviews on Portland automotive, which seems sketchy, especially by men who probably it appears to me no more about cars versus the women to think they're very nice. Well, I'm a woman, but I go with my gut instinct, and in this case, it told me to go elsewhere.
