Gabriel saved the day when I had a flat tire in the way to Yankee Stadium with my family. And he did it with an incredibly kind heart. Great guy and extremely fair pricing. He told me to leave the car, go to the Yankee game with my family, and it would be fixed when the game was over. He dropped everything on a Saturday to help me, a total stranger.

Honestly i dont understand the bad ratings, Gabriel was extremely helpful getting me back on the road when my 2017 suburban broke down 5 blocks away from his shop. He explain my water pump was bad and I should also replace my thermostat. Thanks for the help Gabriel my car is running smooth hopefully for another 100k miles. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO THIS PLACE. The owner Gabriel is beyond RUDE and DISRESPECTFUL. He kept my car and decided to "fix my car" without telling me the price. He yeld at me when I came to get my car trying to intimidate me. Charged me $425 to supposely change two belts which he never showed me parts nor provided me a receipt. I will never recommend this place to anyone. I am warning you do not go there unless you want to get ripped.

Go this place if you wanna get ripoff.. they’re literally thief. If you go to fix something, specially you don’t know much about the problem...I had a weird noise from wheel because something stuck in it and they told me I had to change some parts and will cost $350. I thought I’ll try some different place and the job was done for $5 tips no charge...

DONT go to this place!!!! I got royally screwed. I was visiting from out of state the serpentine belt on my car broke it was hanging on by one thread, called to get a quote, prior I looked up the belt which was 19.00 for my car i estimated labor to be around 100.00 on the higher end and I was even being reasonable thinking I’d have to pay 150 tops, he went and got the belt turned around when he came back told me he has to up charge me because he did not have my belt on hand like he thought then hits me with I have to pay him 230.00 and I said I don’t have that money I wouldn’t have came here if I knew this that’s not even logical he then started to tell me in a rude manner I pay or leave as he’s closing doors in my face I was desperate and had to have my family transfer me money on the spot, he told me 45 minutes I got to the corner to grab the money from the atm 20 minutes passes he comes around the corner screaming at me I told him I wanted a Receipt he gets offended say you don’t trust me I said no I do not he then says he don’t have receipts and wrote on a pink paper, I get home because the new belt was put on too tight has my car squeak ing he messed up my ac until putting it too tight messed up the rotation so it cost me over 500 to get my car done properly and to fix what he further more done this man is horrible upon meeting he seems nice talks of god says he’ll give u an amazing price give u a blessing he likes to help ppl out in need I got ripped off and treated like I did something wrong I do not recommend this person or business

Unfortunately, I have come to realize that Gabriel, my previous mechanic, did not meet my expectations. Despite his initial assurances, I discovered that the repairs he made to my vehicle were inadequate and, in some instances, even caused further damage. Fortunately, I sought a second opinion from a new mechanic who identified the issues and provided a more cost-effective solution. To summarize, I would advise against using Gabriel's services unless one is satisfied with temporary, subpar repairs. The new mechanic not only provided a more accurate assessment but also offered competitive pricing.

Gabriel is a extortionists. He caught me out there for $2750., and that's completely my fault because it's no way I should've let him do my 2007 Lincoln Navigator, I needed my engine coolant replaced, breaks and rotors plus my break line replaced, And my air conditioner needed to be fixed before summer ☀️ officially kicks in. Gabriel claims he replaced the compressor and condenser in order for in order for the ac to start being cool again 🥶. Yo for less than a day, my ac went from cool to hot. Again and then when I called him and complained about the ac going from cool to hot. And his response was he 🎬 acted like he couldn't hear me. Oh and plus, when the truck was supposedly ready to be picked up, I wasn't prepared to pay for it and so I asked him if he could let me pay it next week. He got bent out of shape and actually, I had $750 so I offered to give him that and pay the rest next week and he wouldn't even accept that as I'm trying to comply with the payment. And lastly if that was too much and good enough. He even to extort me for extra $275 dollars, claiming late fees because he claims he was late with his rent. Be on the lookout, do not, I repeat do not do business with this person. He's not a mechanic, He's a opportunist and a extortionists. This garage is not a mechanic shop, it's a rip off. Stay clear from it, not good for business.

Gabriel helped us out and stayed an hour longer on NYE to fix our brake line when we couldn't go anywhere else. Don't know what we would've done otherwise, very friendly and quick as well!

I had a very bad experience at this place, do not take your car to be repaired there. It is very expensive, very bad service, the owner is irritable. My car broke down because of the poor work he did and I had to pay him.

Guys a crook. Don't know how he stays in business. When AAA tow truck driver doesn't even want to tow there. That's sad. Brought my car here for repairs after AAA dropped it off. (Thankfully, he didn't want to deal with Ariane). To begin I told Ariane idk what's wrong with my car, I'm not a mechanic, hence why I'm bringing my car to a mechanic. He works on the car. Fixes the wrong part and tells me it's my fault. In what world? Do not bring your car here. If you need to push it elsewhere, use that energy.

he didn't want to work with my warranty co. I had to pay out of pocket n eat the bill. My warranty co. warned about his reviews. The car was there however and was dead. So we agreed to repairs at a tune of $460. With no parts installed, just diagnostics. N he turned the car on. Let's see how.long going to last me

Never in my life have I see such a horrible repair shop. They give you a price and then later on add hidden fees. Also they try to get you to fix things that work fine. I brought in my car and they added hidden fees to the price they told me. I feel robbed and if I could give 0 stars I would.

I have a Mercedes Benz GL 450. It's not always easy finding a macanic that understands & works on my car for a good price. Gabriel is the best I've ever met!

Terrible service. I called to inquire about my vehicle repair and the man flipped me off and told me to fix the problem myself when I just asked him a question. He lied and changed price several times and then was disrespectful altogether and told me to do it myself when I needed a service which was reason for my call... Don't go here run in opposite direction... You've been warned!

I asked him to clean my engine and he powerwashed it. He charged me $65 and now my car isn't running. He advised I see someone else. I don't recommended ANYONE go to this guy. Plus he's very rude
