Their google reviews have dozens of similar accounts where people went in for one thing and left with a million other problems. Their responses are just as bogus as their service. I'll continue to spread the word. They never fixed the issue just continued messing up my car. Never again.

My husband brought our 2014 Nissan Altima to Lou to replace the transmission, which he did…read more However, while our car was in his possession the hood and a part of the roof was damaged with dents and he broke our hood latch and never told us. We didn't figure out the hood latch was messed up until we inspected the car. He never said a word. Our car was also returned to us with zip ties holding up the bumper which he claims he had to use because the clips for the bumper was warped. He never said anything about that either until we asked about the zip ties and then he had to ask his employee what happened. How can you be so clueless about changes or dents to our vehicle but then say you are not responsible for the damage, and that we brought the vehicle in damaged. Originally he never went to his cameras to check anything and was blaming Nissan for the damage because his company brought it there to re-program the vehicle. Lou acted like he cared at first and then completely denied everything. We still have no answer or accountability for what happened to our vehicle. Lou is very dismissive and was aggressive when talking to my husband about the situation. Please be aware when taking your vehicle to this shop that you risk your car getting cosmetic/auto body damage with no integrity or accountability from the owner and his employees. I would not recommend or refer anyone to do business with him.

Had my timing belt done at Kars 2 years ago, and it broke within 2 years, took it back to Kars told…read moreJimmy a banging noise is coming from the side of the timing belt, Jimmy check it, he said it was a rod that's broke, and I needed another engine. I told him it sound like my timing belt, he insisted it wasn't. He said it should last another 6 months or even a year. 2 weeks later going to work, yelp, it broke, my belt. Stuck on the Parkway. So NJ Parkway tow truck charge me $337.75 to get towed to Honda. I thought Honda was going to say, I needed another engine like Jimmy from Kars said I did. Nope they said it was a failed timing belt. I forgot to say I asked Jimmy should I take it to Honda, he said for what, they can't do anything either but put another engine in it. Why would he lie to me, after being a great customer too? Now I had to pay for another timing belt, oil pump cause it ruined it somehow.$ 1,586.98 later, still mad.

I was almost ready to give up and I tried Kars Automotive and they found the issue and resolved it on my first visit for a fraction of what I spent at the other places. I have learned my lesson and will only be bringing my car back here in the future for any maintenance or work that is needed. What a delight to have a mechanic that listens to you and resolves the issue and does not find other ways to get more money from you. Ten out of ten.

Honest, knowledgeable, quality work!…read more I was told about this mechanic shop from a coworker of mine, and I'm glad I made it out here. I called and spoke to Zach and we agreed on a price so I made my appointment to come in. It was Zach's knowledge on installing "Caliper, Rotor and Brake kits" that made me comfortable in giving him my business. When I left it was Zach's honesty and quality work that made me at ease. Installing new brake kits is a bit nerve racking since if done incorrectly can cause you to be hurt badly. Zach not only knew how to install this special kit, but did the job right. I also asked him to put aside my old calipers since I will be getting my core deposit back once I mail in. Zach not only put it aside, but placed them in the original boxes and packaged them for me. So my hands did not get dirty at all. Zach stated to me he was experienced in many aftermarket installs. After my experience here I will be looking forward to giving Zach more of my business in the future.
