I'm a bit tardy in writing this review--took the car in for routine oil service last April--but…read morethought I'd better jump in because the negative reviews need a balance. I can't speak to complicated repairs, but a friend recommended Kirkpatrick's because, he said, they had treated his daughter and her BMW well; so I figured my Volvo would be safe with them. Nothing in my experience with them was unusual, the time and charges seemed reasonable, so I can think of no reason I wouldn't return to them for future needs, especially given that the nearest Volvo dealership is quite a distance away from Augusta.

She called me back within an hour and said she found two of them for $100 and that she would hold them for me. I went in later on that day and they put them on for me and the customer service was wonderful! I would recommend them to anybody. I also had needed a new battery for my car last winter and they had one at a reasonable price and installed it quickly and had me on my way. I had checked two or three other places and could not afford the battery at the other locations but New England Tire had one that I could afford and it was such a relief. Also there waiting area is very relaxing and inviting.

Usually I regret going anywhere else and kick myself for not just coming here. I moved to Skowhegan so I tried a couple garages near me, but again, came back to Hardings. They were ok, but didn't compare and often I'd have to take my vehicle back to fix things they missed or didn't do right. I can tell you in all the years I've been using Hardings I don't think that has ever happened! They are thorough, honest, and very competent. I have had a lot of really bad experiences over the years with repair shops so I don't trust hardly anyone!! I trust Joe at Hardings. That is saying a lot coming from me. Joe is upfront, real and honest. He tells it like it is and I know if he tells me something needs to be done it does and I don't have to wonder if he's BS-ing me. He will break it down for you also, tell you what has to be done now, what can possibly wait a bit, etc. He will work with you. I recently tried another place recommended by someone else, as they were much cheaper, big mistake! They went over their estimate by $200 & didn't even call to tell me & wanted to do other work that was not necessary. I went back to Hardings and now have my truck up and running great and inspected. Lesson learned. I'll be a customer for life. My aunt has been a customer for over 25 years and has been treated so good she NEVER goes anywhere else and always sings their praises. You truly get what you pay for, as they say. Harding's may not be the cheapest around (although still reasonable!) but they are the best, IMO. I know my car is going to be fixed right when I go there and I won't be told they can't figure out the issue, as I've had happen at other places. They do everything, including rust repair too. Keep up the good work Hardings!
