When I picked it up, I was told I needed $2,500 worth of other repairs, many of which I'm now questioning. I wasn't confident in their assessment, especially since the original issue they were supposed to fix wasn't actually resolved, and the problem resurfaced shortly after. Then I brought my own car in for new tires, and now three out of the four tire sensors are malfunctioning, which was never an issue before. I've had enough. I've dealt with the manager most of the time, and it's a shame because I used to trust them and spent a lot of money there. It's hard enough to find a reliable mechanic these days, but after this experience, I'm done.

Ridiculous At first, over the phone I was quoted a price of $950 to fix it again! When I showed up with my dad, it was $570. This owner is a crook! DON'T GO HERE! I would give zero stars if I could. UPDATE: 6/27/19 I took my truck to Driveworks in Jersey City and the cost of a new compressor is $280 and I paid $300 for labor and Freon. This is much cheaper than the original $950 I paid for the same services at Van Houten. Be advised that after I posted this poor review, the owner left me a voicemail "to make me an offer." I never returned the call.

It doesn't offer a big waiting room with nice amenities or free coffee. It isn't fancy or impressive to look at but it is owned by a guy who is an old school grease monkey who loves cars, trucks and tools. Kevin clearly loves what he does and takes pride in it. He has become a family friend and he has a loyal local following because he is the real deal. He knows his stuff and will happily answer your questions. If he doesn't handle what you need done he knows just who you need to see. A referral from Kevin to another business is solid. He has never steered us wrong. I advise making an appointment because Kevin is one very busy guy.
