Huge shoutout to THOMAS DUDA at Central Maine Motors! Not only was he able to get me the car of my…read moredreams, he did what 3 other dealers in the area would not do: sell me a car! We came in with financing from our credit union and nobody else at other dealers would even entertain us, let alone make us feel welcome. Thomas was incredible from the very first phone call to the last conversation at the gas pump while he filled up our gas tank in the new car. I 1000% recommend him, and will follow him to whatever dealership he's at. He worked really hard to make me feel included in the process, he was transparent and was super patient with me. He never pressured me into buying anything extra but he was thorough in explaining my options. Not only did he juggle multiple guests every time I was there; he was cordial + genuine to every one of us, but more importantly: he tried to make the process as quick as possible without making anyone feel rushed or neglected. He was the only one in the sales room the night we went to pick up our car and he was treating every guest just as important as the next. I can't speak on the rest of the sales team with the exception of brief interactions but everyone was friendly and helpful! Thank you SO MUCH Thomas, we love our new Tahoe and couldn't have done it without you! 10/21/21

One of the worst dealership experiences I've had thus far! Not only did they mess up my service and…read morecharge me extra. The service rep was extremely disrespectful, making jokes when I picked up my truck saying oh, you're the truck with the surprise $800 bill. She also took a phone call while trying to help me checkout. I had plans on having my RAV4 serviced with their sister dealership, but I've canceled that appointment and will use Charlie's of Augusta. And my truck will now go to O'Connors.

Then I got the bill. $100? Are you kidding me? I love HJS. "Mainers" are wonderful people and really helped me out. Highly reputable and nice people. I highly recommend Harry J Smith. THANK YOU!!!!!

From the owner: How do I get an estimate? Some insurance companies want you to visit their drive-in claims center…read morebefore bringing your car to the collision repair center. You can do this, or you may leave your car at our location and ask the insurance company to inspect the car here. Do I need an appointment for an estimate? Walk-ins are welcome, although sometimes it is best to call ahead of time so we can advise you of the process. What do I need for a collision repair estimate? All you need is your car, insurance card, and contact information. What if my insurance company wants me to go to another shop? You have the right to go to the shop of your choice. Your insurance company cannot require you to go to a particular shop. They may tell you they wont cover the work, but we have stood behind our repairs since 1985. Estimates may vary - why? Differences in collision repair estimates are common. A lower estimate may not include all necessary work. In the process of fixing the damage caused by the collision, additional auto body repair issues may be revealed. If your not sure why one estimate is different from the other please ask us. Which shop should I choose? a shop like Conrad's with state-of-the-art repair equipment and certified (ASE, I-Car) technicians. Should I accept the insurance check, and if I do, will additional work be covered? Yes. We will work with the insurance company on any supplements (work that is accident related) and will bill them directly if need be...

They immediately, in less than 5 seconds, assured me that the flat was not repairable, and the tire needed replacement. He said he could put some air in it, if it wasn't too bad. I declined, before he could give me the price for 4 new all season tires. I guess $600 would be their price About 5 minutes later, I went to my dealer brand's garage, and the garage specialist put on his coat, gloves, repaired the hole, in less than 8 minutes, and pulled out a small nail, also present, but had not made its way through, unlike the first, filled the tire. Because I was out of town, the repair was FREE he told me. I took the spare wheel off, but the repaired one, and I drove back home, 5 hours later. The brand is always better than independent garages.
