You can read my previous review to see everything I like about VIP: Their parts and labor guarantee, their knowledgable mechanics, how their people worked late to get our car out of the shop in time for the weekend. When I came out as trans, they handled it completely differently than I might have expected at pretty much any other garage in Maine. Thanks, Katelyn! I'm knocking off a star because, while all the staff here are really great, there's not enough of them. It's taking them far longer than they used to to get jobs done because no matter how talented they are, there's not enough people on board. They lost a few people about three months back and they still haven't been able to replace them, and the parking lot is literally full of cars that they haven't been able to get to yet. I feel for them because I know that can't be easy. VIP (central) needs to either be more realistic about what they need to do to attract good technicians (I'm guessing pay and benefits), or be more realistic about the services they can offer with a skeleton crew, which may just mean becoming VIP Tires.

Nothing listed as to oil change price but ended up being 70. This is more than double nearby options. Asked for a service breakdown with a cost like that. Service counter stated they don't give that for oil changes and the only receipt you get is the nondescript one that comes from the credit card machine. Have other work to do but can't consider them with pricing and business practice like that.

I was very polite and asked him not to spray the one part of my car so i wouldnt get water in it. To which he completely ignored me and didn't even respond. I know he heard me because he stood there and listened to me ask then just turned around. He then proceeded to not even spray any of my car at all and now its not even clean. For $17!!!??!? Wtf? Theres a brand new place down the street and its easy enough to just go there. And if I need tires I know where I wont be coming. It's only a car wash, so how hard is it to be kind and respectful and help someone get there moneys worth for an insanely expensive wash where my car isn't even clean at the end. Ridiculous

They don't replace a bunch of things that don't need it. I recently (this fall) squired a new car and needed tires on it. When I went to Sullivan's in Brewer for tires I asked them to look it over. Sullivan's returned with a 2300.00 quote (not including the tires). I was discouraged and figured I should start doing some repairs over time, and brought it to mikes for its first repair. They called me at 1 pm that day, all fixed for less than 200.00. They also knew it was a new to me car but they didn't take advantage and only fixed what needed it. Don't expect a lot of phone conversation, these guys work. But leave them the car with a list of things and expect it to get done quickly without breaking you. If you want a car wash and a lot of side talk, go spend the extra 1000.00 at a dealership.
