Called ahead and asked if they offered my particular car service, they happily did and at a respectable price point. Got the shop and the team was already waiting for me. Team answered all of my questions and even went the extra mile and showed me my old parts. Honest group of people here, great business. Would highly recommend to anyone. read more

I got the breakpad and rotor replaced here in both the rear wheels. At first time they could not install the pads properly so it was creating some noise. then they did something again which killed the noise but now after few miles of driving , it feels like wheels are not aligned properly and hear clucking sound ..very bad experience read more

Mr. Ramzi and Issa have been servicing our car for about 2 years now. I know that I am in good hands when I go here. I have recommended a few people to go here and they have been very happy with the service they get. And it doesn't break bank to go here. They give you the right price and sometimes even lower then usual. read more

After taking my car to Ramzi and Issa to fix a screw up that the dealership mechanics made, I will never take my car anywhere else. Very fair prices and quality work. read more

I used to go all over the place for my car's needs. Not anymore. Ramzi is the place I go for everything. I needed a new catalytic converter and no place came close to what I was quoted here. Ramzi and his son Issa gave me a good price, they do not try to gauge you. They're the most trustworthy mechanic shop I've come around. I'm glad they are conveniently located, but even if they weren't, I'd be willing to travel to be seen here. Cannot recommend enough. Thanks for the help guys! read more

I have been going to Ramzi's shop for many years and every single interaction I have with him and his son Issa I know I'm in good hands. No fast, slick talking. They will hear you out and then look over the car to verify you actually need work done. Ramzi and his team do great work. I have full confidence in his shop to do whatever repairs I need. I feel so strongly about it that I take my wife's car, my mother in law, one of my close friends on the other side of JC and one of my neighbors. I constantly recommend Ramzi's shop to anyone voicing a need for car repairs because I know he will take care of them. Always respectful and pricing is not their central focus. They always test after repairs are done to make sure it's up to their standard. It's so hard to find an honest mechanic with integrity that takes pride in the work they do, and once you find someone like that you've gotta stick with em. #TeamRamziauto read more

The shop is excellent it took them few minutes to diagnose the problem with my car and just 2 hours to order the part and replace it

This place is great! My "check engine" light came on so I was looking up Auto Repair shops and chose Ramzi based solely on the excellent reviews. I called them up and asked if I could bring it in and they said "sure, come on by right now if you'd like!". The staff was super knowledgeable and friendly, and I will 100% be back when my car inevitably needs another fix! read more

Ramzi automotive seems to have closed or relocated because the original building has been knocked down. I cannot find any other info but he was a generally nice man and honest mechanic. I hope he reopens in the immediate area . They are always honest and reliable. I hope somebody has information on what happened read more

Went in last minute and was totally taken care of! Great customer service, fair price $$ and will certainly be back.

Ramzi has been my go to place for the past couple of years. Most mechanics are not trustworthy especially if they see a woman alone. Ramzi is the only mechanic in the tristate area that I feel I can go alone and my car will be taken care of in an honest way. I trust this place and highly recommend it. read more

The most unprofessional shop that I ever saw. Be careful! They damage my car and didn't took responsibility.!

Down to the clips!! When my mechanic of 7 years passed away, I spent a lot of time searching for someone new. My mechanic was a no nonsense, fast fixer, who was wise in years and experience. May he Rest In Peace. I didn't think I could ever find someone to fill that spot. So I bit the bullet and went to Pep Boys. Now, I have an old car. 2001 Camry with 104000 miles, but I take good care of Cammy, and she runs quiet and efficient. The first visit to Pep Boys on Kennedy and Cottage in Jersey City, was fine. It was a higher price tag, but they replaced the alternator. My car started over-heating this last summer so I took it in, expecting the same level of service. When the employee called me back, they wanted over 2000 for a whole bunch of stuff not related to the overheat! Now while I know, sometimes you get a surprise, this was ridiculous. When I expressed incredulity, he immediately lowered the price to 1600, as some of the work could wait. Huh? I was there to potentially fix a radiator, and now these guys want to overhaul my car. My heart sank, and I collected the vehicle. I couldn't trust it. I went over to Pica Automotive on route 139 next. He looked at it, said the radiator was leaking and said he would fix it for 600 bucks?! Having no choice, I told him it was fine. Then, out of nowhere, my wife called me to help. A friend said he would do it for parts!! What luck! I called Pica back to cancel the work. He wanted to know why, I told him a friend would do it for way less, and he lowered his price to 400!! What gouging! Geez, if he would have offered me a fair price right away, he would have gotten the money, but no. He must have thought, Here's a guy who doesn't know a lot about cars let's rob him. Fixed my car with my friend and he gave me a tip or two. Radiator was 100, with a thermostat and some gasket, about 120. My friend did it for free with barely any tools for under an hour! I couldn't believe it. So these two shops could have fixed my car in LESS than an hour with all the tools they could need, and still make a tidy sum for less than 400. Say the mechanic is making 150 an hour(Pep Boys estimate) and paid 150 for parts and hoses, that's still only 300! Take 400 for overhead maybe! But geez, these prices made me not want to trust anybody again. Months later, my transmission was slipping and I needed a mechanic I could trust. I took it over to Ramzi after a convincing yelp review. And crossed my fingers. The review said he was a genius, but SEEING is believing. I told him my my trans was slipping while idle. He just LOOKED at the engine running, and immediately knew what it needed. Some plugs and cables. He threw in help with a brake sensor light and fixed my rear night lights that hadn't worked in two weeks! He solved all my issues in a visit. Just wow! He quoted me the price before i even left the car at his shop. He does not mince words, and he was happy to help! He replaced the plugs, wires, fixed a radiator clamp, fixed the screws on my fan that had fallen off, fixed that brake warning sensor, changed a brake bulb, replaced my license plate lights, and fixed my rear night time running lights. The crew even replaced trunk clips that broke while I was trying to replace the lights myself! Down to the clips!! All for the FAIR price of 560. I say FAIR for this review, and to point out the vast difference between mechanics. But I personally feel it was steal! While a repair CAN be costly, having a great mechanic you can trust to do the job right, and not gouge you, is priceless. So glad I found this team, and from another yelp review no doubt!! Score!! Thank you Team Ramzi!! read more

Ramzi is the most trustful mechanic my family has been going to since I was a child. He's not like your typical mechanic trying to over charge or try to rip you off! He's the real deal, Now that I'm an adult he's still my mechanic lol...his prices are fair, I usually get my oil change done by him. If you bring your own oil and filter he only charges 15$, which is awesome! ...I've done my front and back breaks, put my new wheels on, and was charged 240$ total. If you want someone you can trust and not get raped in pricing he's a must go to for a local mechanic in jersey city! read more

See all

Ramzi is THE MOST HONEST MAN in the auto repair business - PERIOD. What is better than that? Well he happens to be a GENIUS and a very capable mechanic - with a great crew of guys behind him. He has saved me $1,000's - everything he has done for me has worked out great - from new stabilizers to new brakes and pads, I had tires from the TIRE RACK delivered to him because I TRUST him- and he got rid of old tires and set the new ones on for a price so low I felt obliged to tip him. There is NOWHERE else to go in Hudson county for auto repair read more

Ramzi is most honest mechanic in Jersey City. Fixes are long term and cheaper than other mechanic. Highly recommended.

This shop is great, I've been using them for a few years now. Oil changes, tire rotations, alternator. Ramzi always takes care of it, quick and affordable. Best mechanic in the area! read more

I don't know if the owner really works on the car. He better not comment on my review as this will go to the BBB. Whatever the case may be he took my daughter's car, changed a piece and it became worse. Then (this is how you know he didn't work on the car; he had his minions do it) he did not know what part was actually replaced. After further debate said he would keep the car overnight to replace the right part. The next day the car was not working AT ALL!! WTH? Then the nerve to try and keep the money. I think not! You can try to take advantage of people, but this will be reported. As now she is out of a car. C-r-o-o-k-e-d. read more

Visited them for the first time this past month. The car would not start because the battery terminal became very corroded and it had to be replaced - a piece of it broke off. After doing so the car had a difficult time starting. Battery had to be replaced also which I thought it had to be done anyway before it was mentioned to me by Ramzi mechanic. I was also overdue for an oil change so they did that also. It was all done within 45 minutes or so. Price for parts and labor was very reasonable. If you are in the western slope of the heights, I recommend this place. I've found out they've been around since 1992. If they've been open for that long they must be doing something right. read more

Have been going to Ramzi for a couple of years - they have done oil changes, tire rotations and repairs, brake fixes/replacements and also fixed the stereo when the fuse blew. Really competent and honest and has never overcharged/estimated - I was ready to replace a tire but he was able to patch it and keep it going longer. Awesome people! read more

If you're in need of a tune-up...GO HERE! I called Toyota to see how much a 100,000-mile check would cost me and they quoted me over $300. I went to Ramzi, and not only was he MUCH cheaper, but he was very honest with me about what absolutely needed to be repaired, and what could wait a while. Not to mention he's a really soft-spoken, sweet man. My car is running great and I'm very happy with the service. read more

Totally fucked up I came with a flat tire they said they don't have my tire size so they have to order a new one . I said ok and come back after 3 hrs they give me a fucking old tire like I have go change a new tire maybe after 1month. Then total charge me $140 include oil change. You muck must fucking kidding me with this fucking old tire you charge me almost $100! Such a bullshit shop with all liers! Completed don't get it where this good reviews come from! read more

The worst service ever! They over charge for everything. Rather go somewhere else! The owner of the place is very rude. I would give them negative stars if I could!!!

I had a huge dent on the rear passenger side of my Mazda 3. I went to 3 auto body shops around West New York, they quoted me an arm and leg to get the dent fixed. One of my colleagues recommended Ramzi, and I am glad I went there. Ramzi did an excellent job fixing the dent and painting the passenger side doors and more so, he did the job in almost half the price! I would highly recommend this place. read more

Ramzi is an honest man and a mechanical genius. Always fair prices, always great service. This shop has and will be my go to for life.

Great service and they fixed my car very quickly. would highly recommend this shop.

I have been going to Ramzi Auto repair for the last 12 1/2 years and couldn't be happier. It's very tough to find an honest auto repairman and Ramzi is very honest and the prices are very fair. They also get the work done in a short amount of time. I will continue to bring my car here as long as i live in northern NJ. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

Exceptionally honest, fair mechanic. I heard good things so I gave him a chance on my $80k car and he not only fixed it quickly and competently, he came up with a few ways to SAVE me money on unnecessary parts?! What?? This guy obviously isn't your usual mechanic. 5 stars. read more

Absolute Crap! Zero Stars Went there to install a gas tank. He gave a a quote for 200 over the phone. I even asked him if he had done similar cars before and dont want surprises and he said yes. Buy the Aftermarket tank and go to him. He jacks it up and asks for 300 and tells me that he never promised and wanted to look at the car first. Wonderfull. it is a damn 1998 honda accord LX. Not a unique piece manufactured in someone's garage. If he has not done it, then should say " I have never changed fuel tanks for 98 accords and can only say when you bring the car in" I relent. First mistake. I have seen so many youtube videos of some professionals do tanks and he did not follow any of the procedures and the 2 that I saw handle it as careful as an egg and bring down the tank with all the parts attached and then take it of the straps. Practically was in it for the money and nothing else. Did not use the fuel pump washer that came with the tank (claimed it did not fit properly and the original was good..gave no such reasons for the new ORVR valve washer but again did not want to pry it off) Finishes install and the way he squeezed the tank in was hoping nothing was broken. Next day get a check engine light. Go back to him and he says that a vaccum hose was torn. He claimed that it was broken before. Lies. On top of it he tapes it and sends me back with a reset. Also, starts saying my check engine light is because of the aftermarket tank. Check engine light again and take a replacement hose (had to figure it out myself at my own way what the hose was and buy it for him) to him which he tore. Fixes it and still the check engine light comes back and he says cannot do much. On top of it claims I am a headache for coming twice with the same problem. Yes!. why not..if you cannot do a job properly. Get fedup and take to the dealer and the dealer does a smoke test and claims mechanic has messed the install (especially the ORVR and the tube connecting the ORVR to the canister) and the tank has to be dropped again. The dealer said he should have cleaned up and used the new washer and he did not find anything wrong with the new ORVR washer or the Aftermarket tank. Cost 600$.to Cannot afford. At this point will drive the car until the emission validation. What pains me is the car has no other issues and because of this mess up have to let go of it. Morale of the story. Save your money and go somewhere else!. Sorry Ramzi..you let me down big time here. There were 4 attributes that go against you. 1) Lie 2) Laziness 3) incompetency. 4) Total lack of concern for the customer I tried working with you from day 1 when you started with the 200 dollar quote, but what a letdown. I can deal with incompetency but not the other 3. read more

I love Ramzi and I have brought my car here for brake services to oil changes. He is honest and can always be counted on to get the job done correctly and for a very fair price. Highly recommend! read more

Great place to deal with. I just purchased an older car (79 Camaro) and needed some essential repairs done. Took it to 2 other mechanics, but they didn't know or wanted to do the repairs. Found Ramzi on Yelp and saw positive reviews. Met with Ramzi himself to explain what was needed (new exhaust and replacement of left lower control arm). Very nice guy, and said 'no problem, bring the car in'. Brought it in the next day and he had everything done within hours. Even told me I didn't need some other things that another mechanic said I needed. Ramzi is very honest and his prices were very reasonable. I highly recommend Ramzi. I will be using him in the future for sure! read more

Amazed by the quality, price, and quick turnaround. Genuinely think Ramzi is professional, does great work at way lower prices than most places. Go here if you're looking for a new auto garage and avoid the rip offs!! As the other reviewer mentioned Ramzi himself is very nice and kind too and you don't feel pressured nor like he's trying to sell you on anything you don't need. Such a refreshing break from most garages!! read more

Ramzi has been my go to shop since I moved the area 11 years ago. It's convenient, reasonable and mostly honest until recently. I took my car in to have the brake pads changed but ended up being jerked for 3 hours of labor and a rotor replacement I didn't need. My original rotors were slotted, he changed them for AutoZone generic rotors because he said "these are no good". He even made me touch the rotors taking advantage on my ignorance on the subject. Since I've trusted him all these years and he's never done me wrong, I said fine. I dropped the car off and took a walk. I show up less than an hour later, there's my car, finished. Not 3 hours later as they expected, his crew was surprised. I paid for the work because it was the last time I would do business with him. I'll let all the friends and family I've sent his way not to go. Like all repair shops, do your research and don't get jerked by dishonest owners trying to show off in front of his employees. read more
