    My first two encounters with this shop back in the winter of 2025 were good. The first time, a…read moreblond, kind mechanic did some troubleshooting due to a noise I was hearing but wasn't able to find anything, and didn't charge me. The second time, in December, my check-engine light went on due to the EGR system. I had had work done on this system before, so it was troublesome that the check-engine light was illuminating yet again. When I brought it to this shop, I was hoping to see the same mechanic who helped me before (Isaiah?). I didn't, but another mechanic did, a tall, dark-haired man who was also kind (Joel?). He replaced my EGR valve. The check-engine light stayed off for 2-3 months; then, it tripped again (not a commentary on "Joel's" work as I know the fuel/air intake can be an issue). So, I took it back to this NRH shop (7659 Blvd 26), hoping to see "Joel" again and see if he could remedy the problem, hopefully for minimal or no cost since I'd already paid $225 to have this repaired. Alas, "Joel" was not there. Nor was "Isaiah". Only one guy I'd seen before in my previous visits was still there; I assume he is the manager, perhaps the owner. All other personnel I didn't recognize, including a stocky guy in black sweatpants whom I'd never seen before. The "manager" and a very young man, perhaps his son, told me to come back the next day because the "main" mechanic (I assumed "Joel") was out sick but would be back tomorrow. The "manager" told me to bring my receipt; I don't mind that, but with the work having been done recently, in December, couldn't they verify it via their computer system? I showed up the following day, receipt in hand, and showed it to the "manager". He went in the shop to talk to the "stocky guy" and returned a few minutes later, stating that the part that was installed was defective and that he'd just charge me for labor. What I'm wondering is how he was able to determine that the part was defective so quickly if that was really the case. Things didn't add up in this and subsequent situations. On 02-28-2026, I wish I'd never handed over my keys, that's for sure. Sitting in the waiting room for 90 minutes or so, seeing more customers come in one after another, gave me time to think. "Isaiah" is gone. "Joel" is gone. All new people. They said their "main" mechanic would be here today, but he's not. No computerized system of tracking receipts/work. I really doubt that EGR valve is defective. I started to have a really, REALLY ... REALLY BAD FEELING. It was one of those kinds of 6th-sense feelings that you should NEVER ignore. So, I got the ball rolling ... With some resistance, I was able to get my car back. I also had to ASK for my receipt. That was another red flag. Anyway, as soon as I left, something was blatantly not right. At first, I thought, "Oh it's just me." I had to push the brake pedal really hard to get my vehicle to come to a ROLLING stop, not an on-demand stop. It wouldn't do the latter at all. So I drove it around this strip-mall parking lot for a bit. There was no way I was going back to that stocky guy and risk more damage. I managed to get on the highway, but the problem was becoming more difficult to manage in busy traffic. I exited as soon as I could. I took it to a Discount Tire out of not knowing where to take it because I'd been a customer of theirs in the past. Well, THAT didn't do me any good! Then I saw Mavis across the street had "brakes" on their sign, so I took it there. At Mavis, two up and coming mechanics came out, to help me, James & Mustafa. Colton assisted as well. I popped the hood. Lo & behold, a Wal-mart plastic shopping bag was deliberately stuck and clamped down between the air filter and the intake duct. Then James found that my nearby brake line had been disconnected and that a pair of channel locks were still lying near one of my hood-locks, under the hood during my unexpected trip to Mavis. That explains why that hood-lock now sits incorrectly above the hood and the hood lock pin is broken. Gee, thanks Stocky! All of this to say this: I think what's going on here is the "manager" of this 7659 NRH Auto shop on Blvd 26 is probably either not paying his qualified mechanics enough and/or not giving them enough time off (They're open everyday, not that that matters unless you want to increase your auto repairs and waste your precious time.) To deal with not enough mechanics, he brings in a willing party ("Stocky") who is obviously not qualified (ASE certified). So, James and Mustafa got me safely back on the road, and Colton helped smooth out the rough spots in my shaken-up state upon seeing the damage done. It became apparent that when James and Mustafa were taking off the Wal-mart bag, that Stocky had already damaged the edge of the intake duct. So, Stocky has costed me $30 for a new intake duct and $100 for the broken hood lock, not to mention wasted time and the frustration with a business/persons that lie.

    We took a vehicle to Christian Brothers here in Bedford a couple years ago to have it looked at for…read morea problem we were having. Turned out, it was a problem they couldn't fix (Ford is a pain in the backside). So, they charged us for nothing but the labor to look into it. Because of their honesty, we took our vehicle in when one of the door handles randomly snapped off one day (really shouldn't do that on a 2016 vehicle). They were wonderful and kept us apprised of the progress and pricing every step of the way. We even had them perform our state inspection while they were at it, which was a great value. The staff was super friendly and helpful every step of the way and zigged when we zagged (it was a particularly bad week for cars for us). Everyone we encountered seemed very trustworthy, the price seemed fair and the finished product is perfectly acceptable. We will be using Christian Brothers for our auto shop needs in the future.

    I've been to their shop a few times. This last experience has lost me as a customer…read more They held my car for almost a week and made lots of excuses like "the tech is still looking and hasn't found the issue yet". The problem was very obvious, and it was explained with great detail, and should not have taken so long. It was all just excuses. They also added a laundry list of problems they found and inflated the bill. They even made up a problem and tried to quote me $6000+ for repairs. I could buy a new car for this price, this repair is almost more than the value of the car. In the end, I paid $3300+ and I don't believe they did all the work they claimed. They charged me to change one of my fog lights and never did it too. This whole experience proved to me they have no integrity and make stuff up to suck as much money as possible out of the customer. They all had guilty smiles on when I was in their office paying. They tried to get me to pay for a large, non-critical repair. Going by the experience I had, I am suspicious they may have left things "loose" to create a car problem down the road. The car still has a rattle in it, and this was the reason I brought it in. In the end, I had to wait a week, waste money using Ubers, lied to, bill inflated, did not do all the work they listed, and possibly sabotaged my car to have failure later. This car is pretty new. I have been very gentle with it and always do regular maintenance. The car only has 70k miles on it. They essentially tried to con me. I am posting this so others can see what sort of tactics they use. I will be using a different mechanic and I am going to have this mechanic shop do an examination of the car. The car is fairly new. It should not have all these problems. Either they lied or created them and tried to suck $6000+ from me. Even the $3300+ I paid was ridiculous.

Scott Skid the owner is not standing behind his company's motto and service. Within 48 hours and 49 miles of me getting my vehicle back from them my check engine light came on and a message saying engine compartments are hot. Heath the service manager had me sit in their shop for 3 hours because the shop foreman was servicing other vehicles, only to tell me my spark plugs had residue over them and fouled out. I advised Heath that I didn't bring my car in with bad spark plugs on a check engine light. Heath stated it must be coincidental. I advised Heath when the initial inspection was completed there wasn't any concerns for misfires. Heath turned me away. I was forced to attempt to resolve the issue on my own. I even brought this concern up to Scott Skidd, the owner and he is refusing to take accountability for what his team did. He keeps saying they never did an inspection on my vehicle when they clearly inspect vehicles everytime they are brought in. He doesn't even know how to repair vehicles. I have a 2018 BMW 540i that i take great care of. Had just purchased brand new run flat tires $1500. Who would purchase BRAND NEW TIRES on a vehicle they don't take care of?!?! I never should have let this shop touch it. DO NOT TAKE YOUR FOREIGN VEHICLES TO THIS PLACE. THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. They will not honor their service commitment to you.
