Today Saturday I went to Messengers to have an inspection done and I got to see first hand what it's like to be a one-man band Pat which was going to do the inspection was very professional very courteous and very prompt on what he did and also want to state that being alone is very difficult but he seemed to be coping very well with it thanks again .👍

It is very hard to find a mechanic you can count on these days. They don't overcharge, they are professional and I can get my car in within a couple of days. I would highly recommend this place.

Staff was amazing. They helped me when I was having trouble with my four tires - they were efficient, quick, and honest. It doesn't get much better than that.

Easy to get an appointment and super fast work. Went here twice in the same week for two different cars. They were very friendly and unbelievably fair with pricing.

I had a flat tire down the road from this place. Walked over and asked for assistance. They drove over with equipment and changed my tire within 5 min. Had me drive there to check the psi and filled it with air. Never charged me a dime. Awesome service even in a pinch!

I've just started taking my car here even though I've lived nearby for years. I don't know why I waited so long! They provide excellent, friendly service. I will definitely be a regular customer.

I was in need of an oil change and was about to leave for a 300 mile road trip. I looked up mechanics near me that do oil changes and saw this spot had some great reviews. I called and was met with a kind voice on the other end of the line. She told me I could come in next day and they could do the synthetic oil and filter change. They also refilled my windshield wiper fluid. The price was even cheaper than the usual spot I would go to in MA. All around great mechanic and a well run operation. It feels good to know I have a mechanic I can trust right near my house!!

I was in Burlington for the week from Virginia and had car troubles on the way up. I called about 6 shops and Messier's was the only one who would get me in later that week. They were able to take a look at the car and, although they didn't have time to fix the issue before I headed home, provided me some insight on what was going on and some suggestions for the drive back. Everyone I spoke to was kind, courteous, and compassionate. On top of all of that, they would not take any money for looking over the car and giving advice. Really nice people.

*young women beware* After using the same trustworthy hometown mechanic for my entire life, I decided it was time to find a mechanic up this way. I was due for my inspection so I figured I’d test out Messier’s - they had great reviews and got me in quickly which I was stoked about. They told me in order to pass inspection, I needed new front and rear brakes and a replaced ball joint to fix a sound I had been hearing near one of my tires. I didn’t think much of it, although I’ve had my car for 3 years and know I’ve replaced brakes. Since brakes are a pretty penny and my dad is the most handy man around, we ended up having Messier’s fix the ball joint but leave the brakes - we’d do them ourselves, and then bring it back to finalize the inspection. After picking my car up, the sound was *still* happening - the new ball joint may have been needed, but it didn’t fix the sound as they assured me it did. Dad and I ordered the parts for new brakes, met up to change the brakes, took every tire off, and saw that there was VERY little wear at all on the brake pads… they were in good shape. We had bought all the parts and were literally ready to change them right there. To confirm this, our hometown mechanic was able to squeeze me in and also took off all 4 tires and confirmed that my brakes were fine - might need rear brakes next summer, and they also confirmed that they replaced my front brakes last summer so those were DEFINITELY not needed. In other words, there is no way that telling me I needed new front brakes had any other intention than to hope I blindly complied for more $$. Unfortunately this is not the first time I, a 25 year old woman, have been taken advantage of by mechanics. I truly HOPE it was just an unfortunate coincidence, or one jaded mechanic and not the whole garage that is intentionally trying to upsell clients on work that is not necessary.

when i’m talking the best, i mean the best mechanic shop in burlington. they kind of just take you on as family, my car got in a wreck and i was getting charged an arm and a leg for storage and they helped me and advised me a ton! Especially when i had transmission problems, they have no problems advising me through car troubles and fixing them too. I can’t thank them enough for the work they do and chelsea is very accommodating, they deserve the best. One of the mechanic shops of all time, no doubt. -Ty

My wife and I have gone here for oil changes, tire swaps, and most recently our state inspections. The staff are super friendly and helpful, the prices fair, and we've been happy with the quality of work. We moved to the area and weren’t sure who to trust with our vehicles. It’s such a relief knowing we have a trusted shop to take our cars to.
