These reactions are especially true when you are relatively new to an area and have not even needed to find an auto shop to do the basics because after all we too frequently choose the FAST and EASY corporate oil change locations rather than creating a relationship with a local shop. After reading some reviews and noting the convenient Toms River location of Craig and Lisa's plus ... yes, it matters to some including the family member in distress ... having a woman to talk with a woman made a huge difference and Lisa I was told was AWESOME, PATIENT, and showcased her knowledge. Thankfully there was no need to check the bank statements for this service and there was no use of imaginary terms that some mechanics tend to use. Lisa was clear in explaining the problem, offered more than one solution, and in the end took care of the problem at an extremely reasonable price! In this one small transaction Craig and Lisa gained a regular customer for all auto care!!!

I have to agree with Kristen's review and that was six years ago. Sadly, this woman's attitude…read morehasn't changed. Thankfully, I did not have to meet Lisa in person however, my friend did because she was doing me a favor by taking the car in. I heard about her horrible experience with the rudeness. Some people just need a little customer service training before starting a business. I was also lied to about the vehicle being drivable. Maybe it was but that does not mean it's safe to drive! If the church wasn't paying for my brakes, I would have taken it to my regular shop. If you want friendly, honest service, do not waste your time here.

I have bought three (3), vehicles from Auto Lenders, I have referred so many customers and I have…read morepraised the Auto Lenders Team, defended at times also. I ran into a car issue, transmission to be exact on Friday, February 20, 2026. I called Auto Lenders to have the service team look at it, diagnose and possibly repair. When I called the service department, I was asked the usual questions. My name, contact number and I was asked was the service for the Honda or Jeep? I said neither it is for the Subaru Outback. He asked if I had another number possibly? I gave an old number nothing came up. He asked if I was sure that I bought the Subaru from Auto Lenders, where I advised I did and it was my third (3) vehicle that I purchased from there. He then asked if I had the VIN which I gave him, to my surprise and his; he informed me that the VIN was still showing to be on the lot and not purchased. I said Sir I bought this car from you guys in June of 2023. He then said he needed to speak to the finance manager and would call me back, because he was showing that I purchased a Honda CRV. I was SHOCKED! I have never had an issue with Auto Lenders; the sales team was always helpful, not pushy and respectful. However, this is not sitting right with me. How could someone mess this up? I did call my auto lender, Capital One to verify they had the Subaru Outback information and they do and I also double checked the DMV records. The service guy would not schedule an appointment until this was fixed. My car was not drivable and I called back to speak to the sales department to see if I bought an extended warranty because I could not remember. It was the first time I encountered an Auto Lenders salesman pushing to purchase a vehicle. I advised him I still owe $17,000, the car was not drivable and I live 35 minutes away, can they help with a tow? He said if I purchased another vehicle, yes. What about getting the car looked at to be serviced? No. I understand clerical errors happen however for me the consumer, this is a big mess up. Although the paper work is now corrected, I believe someone in the corporate office should be aware of this error. I am an Office Administrator for a radiology company and if a mess up like this happens, it is imperative that I know and correct the issue. I have since taken my car to a transmission shop where it is being replaced. I never received an apology from anyone, no manager called me to explain anything, and the stress this caused was intense. In the past I have bought a 2012 Honda Accord, 2015 Jeep Patriot and 2016 Subaru Outback, all from the Toms River, NJ location. I hope this error never happens to anyone else and I hope your team, ensures the double check data while inputting.

Earned Trust Friendly Service…read more Timely Knowledgeable Communication Cleanliness I had issues with my exhaust system that needed to be addressed and was expecting headaches, delays, mechanic mumbo-jumbo, and wallet-pain. Nothing could be further from the truth at Brick's Best. When I arrived at Brick's Best, I was greeted immediately by friendly faces who took my appt right on time. They invited me to have fresh coffee with cold Milk, some packaged snacks, and a sparkling clean bathroom. They diagnosed my issue in less than 10 mins and discovered another issue that I didn't expect and said they would fix that too. They promised it would be done before I left...and within an hour, it was done. They even took the initiative to replace my loose plastic engine plugs at no addl. When you go, ask for Reeves or his son, or trust anyone who works for Brick's Best. He's an old school mechanical magician with a new-school emphasized attn on customer service whether you are a motor-head or a mechanical menace like myself who relies on trusting the professionals not to rip me off! I promise you that any expectations you have will be surpassed. The whole team at Brick's Best valued my time, my auto needs, and my pocketbook. Thank you Reeves! Sincerely, Joe P
