    I worked with Marjorie who was easy-going and helped make the buying process pain-free.

    When I arrived about 35 minutes later, Gary had the vehicle prepped, along with the paperwork and plates ready to go.

    I brought my 2015 Mercedes-Benz C300 4MATIC to Chris's Auto Repair on Jan 17 2025 for an oil change…read moreand diagnostic for a suspected defunct front axle and oil leak. Two weeks later I was told the timing-chain kit, oil-pump, upper & lower oil-pan gaskets, crank seal, water pump, right motor mount, both front axles, plugs, and "misc. seals." needed to be repaired. The cost estimate was $4,964 . I emphasized that my car was worth less than that at 107K miles and I wanted absolute certainty the repairs would address all the current issues the car was having. I was assured by Alex that the car would be fully repaired and functional without any issues. Immediately after pickup the car began constant misfires and hesitation between 5-25 mph. I gave him the benefit of the doubt (a mistake) and continued to allow their shop to work on rectifying their "repair". I returned it four times over the next month, each time reporting the same stumble. The shop dismissed it, saying their techs "didn't feel it as often." They never road-tested long enough to reproduce the problem. On the fourth return they assured me the transmission was fine after "cleaning corrosion on the harness." 24 hours later, while my pregnant wife was driving to pick up our toddler's birthday cake, the transmission cooler hose blew off, dumping every drop of ATF and stalling the car in traffic. The tow truck driver and two independent mechanics later confirmed that clip failures like this point to careless reassembly, not random bad luck. Back at the shop the story changed: the owner now said the transmission was "no good" and had to be replaced--directly contradicting what he told me the day before the leak. I had to pay out of pocket for a used 2016 4MATIC transmission, six quarts of genuine MB fluid, a filter, and another week without a car. Another $1000 to repair something the shop broke. Funny how that works. After installation the original misfire never changed--300-plus miles later it's exactly the same. Alex's explanation? "The transmission needs to learn; just keep driving." In other words, drive a malfunctioning car so the shop doesn't have to diagnose it. Now I have new problems: loud clanks while braking and turning, a bang when backing out of the driveway, and the car pulling right when braking in a straight line. Alex says "it needs right and left lower control arms ". The same control arms he looked at upon the initial assessment prior to first repair, stating they were worn but still "good". Now they've suddenly failed (another $2K) and insists that has nothing to do with the previous work or the transmission incident. The 6 times it's been back in that shop. Quite the concidence. After five visits, 4 tows (the ANNUAL limit for AAA. Thanks Alex) , two rental cars, and more than $7,000 spent, the vehicle is less safe than when it arrived. When discussing with Alex, he continues to deny accountability. Negligence, shifting stories, and zero accountability--this has been a financial and safety nightmare. If you value your car, your time, or your peace of mind, avoid Chris's Auto Repair. Reference to Reddit thread I created explaining issues. https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicAdvice/comments/1jm394b/had_5k_worth_of_work_done_on_my_2015_c300_cars/ Overwhelming opinion : Transmission hose incident = proof of improper reassembly. It doesn't just happen 1-2 days later after being "assessed". See you in court

I stopped into the AAMCO on Main Ave, and from the moment I walked in, Steve, the owner, greeted me with a smile, handshake and asked how he could help. As soon as I explained my concern, he didn't hesitate--he walked outside with me, popped the hood, and grabbed the right oil for my car. He topped it off, made sure everything was good to go, then shook my hand again and said, "I hope you get home safe." When I tried to pay, he wouldn't accept anything. Steve was incredibly kind, professional, and genuinely caring. In a world where that kind of service is rare, I'm beyond grateful for his help. If you ever need auto service in Norwalk, this is the place to go. Thank you again, Steve--you made a stressful moment so much easier.

    The store itself was wonderful and helpful. However the part they sold us was defective. i have…read morebeen referred to Dept. of Customer Success, Executive Division. Cmmunications in progress. ------ 1st Advanced couldn't tell us specifically which alternator we needed for our van so we bought two to the tune of $1300+ (with intention of returning unused one) and went to a garage we found in the area (we were on a road trip starting our vacation, so didn't know anyone in area). The garage took us in and did the repair. We were so thankful to be on the road that we paid him cash and headed out. Unfortunately lost the receipt. Wasn't really planning on needing it. Lesson learned! Initial breakdown did not have to do with Advanced Auto Part. And we made an assumption that the part(s) we purchased would be good. for the price...maybe should be lined with a little gold? 2nd on the way home. SAME PROBLEM. This did have to do with Advanced Auto part. Alternator was bad! so now we're in NJ and have to find some help. We eventually did find a repair shop that could help us, but not until the next morning so we were stuck overnight. Not their fault, i put this blame on faulty part as well. So the alternator that we purchased from Advanced was no good. Shop replaced it with a NAPA (where they get their parts) and the cost of the alternator was 1/2 of what we paid at Advanced, although the labor was double what we paid the first time. This garage told us that NAPA will stand by their product and if something like this happens they will reimburse for additional labor as a result of THEIR BAD PART. So I called Advanced to see if they'll do the same. if the part they sold us was good we never would have been delayed getting home and having to pay even MORE labor to reinstall another alternator not to mention the towing fees to get the van to this garage. They did refund me for both the alternators that i purchased. the bad one and the additional one i had to purchase. now i'm tyring to get assistance with the added labor we had to dish out. Stay tuned... i am hoping to be able to update this review with a positive note.
