Great mechanic. Locally grown. Friendly faces. Thank you being so amazing at what you do. We ❤️ 🐾 Paws the dog. She is a staple in that community. The service is fast, the mechanic is an expert and it isn't as expensive as many others in that area. I appreciate them so much!

Absolutely incredible. My car had a bad ignition coil, he fixed it a few hours after I called, and I picked it up same day, running good as new. Had the problem, he fixed it all same day. Couldn’t recommend more, he’s my new go to. Also didn’t over charge me at all.

I get my state inspections done here. They are the sweetest people I've come across since moving to Buffalo. They never take long and make sure you are comfortable while you wait.

Awesome service!!! Joe the owner was so nice and an animal lover Win Win!! The service was quick and the staff was awesome. My car was done on my lunch break with time to spare. I also had the opportunity while waiting to spend time with the most adorable dog. Paws was so friendly 😀 loved my experience I highly recommend 💯

Absolutely wonderful service! Joe was able to get my car in immediately due to a tire issue. Quick & efficient service and lovely front office staff to chat with. And I can't forget to mention the four legged office companion, a sweet dog named Paws who greets you immediately when you walk in. 10/10 experience! I will be going here from now on for all things car related.

Fantastic service by Joe and his team, extremely caring, great communication & timely accomodation. My water pump failed while on a road trip (700+ miles from home) and Joe's shop was able to fix it quickly for me, while also doing a quality job - he truly cared! Plus, he's very reasonable on pricing👌Thank you sooo much Joe, a godsend!!

I went there a couple of times for a quote. The second time I went there was to get my axle fixed. But I forgot the control arm they gave me a quote for was not fixed. So this guy became upset and told me to take my business elsewhere after I never got a chance to tell him I just wanted the axle fixed. I know the control arm needed to be fixed but I could afford both. I asked for the quote and was told to leave. I left there in tears. Never again especially since he made me feel like garbage. Especially since I planned to get the axle fixed and come back to get the control arm fixed, Patience is a virtue. Perhaps being kind and patient is something they should learn. Ultimate auto lost a good customer who does spend money.

While traveling I noticed my car started shaking in the front. I'm not from Buffalo but I found these guys online with great reviews. Joe and Giuseppe were really honest and helpful. They told me I had a bad spot on a tire which caused the problem. They could get me new tires but due to the fact that they're not a tire shop, I could get them much cheaper. Basically they said "Go somewhere else and save yourself some money" Honestly they could have told me a bunch of crap and charged me for a new front end. But they're really honest people. So instead they helped me out. They didn't even charge me for a diagnosis. Really good people! Thanks Giuseppe.

I've been coming here for my car's needs consistently for at least the last year. The owner is always friendly and helpful. There was even one time when he test drove my car and did a quick fix on my undercarriage free of charge. I'd much rather come here than some big franchise that's going to overcharge and treat me like a money bag rather than a person. Great experience every time I come here, especially if Paws is there. 😊

I went in to have my AC checked for my single cab Tacoma. I was expecting just to sit around and wait for my truck to be finished like most places, but along the way I noticed the exceptional service and ethical conduct of the people in the shop. While waiting, I witnessed an older gentleman come in for inspection but Joe came out and explained that his vehicle would definitely fail inspection and refused to accept payment for it. I noticed the transparency of communication in general, a trait not seen everywhere. They took care of my truck quickly and were hospitable throughout my stay. 100% will absolutely come back and recommend to friends! Only downside was that the dog was not there on that day...

If that old angry man had given me a chance to speak he would have known that I was not there for an estimate but to get my axle fixed. And by the way they had given me the estimate like I requested again I would have come back to get it fixed. But I was there to get my car fixed not for an estimate. But when you choose to over talk a customer instead of listening you loose business.

First time using this shop. Highly recommend it! Went in for inspection and was 100% satisfied with honest communication, safe, family feel to the atmosphere. Very fair pricing and quick wait time. Call and make an appointment with these guys and brighten your day! Brightened mine when the bill was less than Expected and they invited me back for coffee anytime. Thanks guys! The coffee and conversation was amazing!

I had my car inspected here. They told me my car passed inspection, told me what things may need fixing or tune-ups in a few months, and I was on my way in about half an hour. Everyone was super friendly, and Paws was very cute. I will definitely be returning!

Joe and his staff are great. Have been using Ultimate Auto for years and have always been well satisfied with both the quality of their work and the prices. I've had them do both big jobs and small routine repairs. Always fair and reliable. Highly recommended!

I had my inspection and oil changed here. They were able to squeeze me in with short notice and were very kind and personable! I will absolutely go here for all of my car maintenance and upkeep from now on. I absolutely recommend them! Joe & Joey 10/10 service !
