Owner was very nice and gave honest and fair pricing for the repairs my car needed. He was very accommodating to the fact I wasn t able to pick up my car the same day it was fixed and let me keep it there an extra two days due to my busy work schedule. Definitely recommending Mike Auto Clinic to my friends and family in the area.

My daughter recently relocated to Connecticut and found herself in need of car repairs. Initially, she took the vehicle to the dealership, only to discover that they were more inclined to suggest purchasing a new car rather than addressing the repairs. Fortunately, I found this auto repair shop through a Google search, and we are incredibly relieved to have found such an honest and reliable mechanic. It's truly a challenge to find trustworthy automotive services, and we are genuinely delighted to have discovered this auto shop.

My family and I have had a few cars repaired here and we have been extremely pleased. The quality of work is exceptional. Problem s others couldn t fix, were fixed at Mike s auto. John also explained in detail what was going on with the cars, caused the problem and the procedure to fix it. we are also very pleasantly surprised by the pricing because John really works hard to get the best pricing as possible for the parts. The staff are very courteous, kind and helpful. We thank you all at Mike s auto.

Their actual hours are different, they open at 8am not 6. I showed up super early and the owner was there and really nice as he explained. Also, Google brought me here when I looked up emissions testing on Google, and found here turns out they only do emissions repairs. I'm leaving this review in the hopes anyone who did what I did reads this. Again, owner was very nice as he explained.

Went in for a simple battery change. Mike s sells Interstate batteries with a better warranty than Autozone. He even went out his way to help change it for me and test that everything was working properly. Will definitely be back!

I couldn't be happier with the quality of service and personal touch that John delivers. There are closer mechanics to my house but it's worth driving the extra distance. They give great explanations of what is happening mechanically and don't try to upsell. I trust them 100%.Service: Auto engine diagnosticService: Auto engine diagnostic

I came here based on a recommendation from a friend when the dealership couldn't get me in for over three weeks; I'm glad I did. The service here was quick and efficient and never once did I feel like I was being taken advantage of. The staff explained everything in detail and even broke it down so that I, a non mechanic, could understand. In addition to great work they advised on additional service without being pushy. I will be bringing my vehicle here from now on for all my automotive maintenance.

My partner and I have taken our car here several times and have had great experiences each time. First, they're open on Saturdays, which is already a huge plus. Additionally, I've always felt treated like a person and not just another source of profit there. They would go out of their way to provide us with helpful advice or to perform some extra checkups free of charge, and they've always given us a straight answer whenever we have questions. We can always rely on them for quick and honest service, and they will be my first choice whenever I have car issues.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Oil change

Great team. Cool people. Took quick inventory of my car's issue and understood what needed to be done right away. Gave a date to bring the car in, when the day came, got the car in quickly. They did great work beyond standard by not only fixing the issue, but taking the initiative to solve another minor issue they noticed during the job free of charge. Again great guys who know their craft and pay attention to detail. Price was decent and reasonable. Highly recommend this auto mechanic shop!

I love this team. I wouldn t go anywhere else. So honest and caring.Update: it s a year later and John is the BEST. I ve lived in 6 different states and had numerous mechanics and John is by far the best. If you are in need of a mechanic and go anywhere else you are doing yourself a disservice. My car thanks me every time it goes to Mike s.

John and his guys know cars, new and old. They are honest. They do little extra things that make a difference. It's a little neighborhood shop, but worth going out of your way for.

I've been going to Mike's Auto Clinic since last year when they were on Whitney Ave. I stopped by unannounced for a nail stuck in my tire and they took care of me within minutes at an affordable price. Since that day, I never looked anywhere else for my car issues. During every visit, they displayed honesty, extensive mechanical knowledge, and thoughtfulness. As a mechanically illiterate 20-something year old woman, I feel incredibly lucky to have walked into the shop that one day. John, Jorge, and his cousin are a few fine folk.

We have been going to Mike's for decades. Mike, and now his son John, have taken good care of our cars. They are honest and capable. I trust them and that is a hard quality to find. Highly recommended.

Can't say enough about the integrity of these guys. Even when they don't know you, they treat you like they'd actually like your return business. Fair, honest, and not condescending.

I didn't end up getting my work done here (because John Argo kindly called the dealership to see whether the part was still under warranty; it was!)John was VERY straightforward in both presenting options and making recommendations. His claims about the price of the parts reasonably matched prices for the parts that I'd previously found online.I highly recommend Mike's!

John is a mechanic you can trust! He is honest, technically excellent, knowledgeable, and friendly. He resolved a persistent and elusive ignition problem at a very reasonable price. If you need a top-notch mechanic, look no further!

Mike's auto is the best! Truly clear, hard working, and smart individuals that diagnose problems and communicate clearly with the customer. I have never felt "ripped off" and look forward to bringing my cars here forever!

Mike's Auto Clinic has been taking care of my vehicle ever since I've got it in 1998. John's auto repair team has been working there for a long time and know the history of my Honda CRV. They always give me quotes be they start repairing and fair prices. If you look for a "doctor" for your vehicle this is the auto repair to use in the greater New Haven. Thank you John and your team for your excellent service!

Very professional and nice. Handled what I was concerned was a big issue( and wasn t thankfully) with my car quickly at a good price. I will definitely return ( although hopefully for routine maintenance not an emergency )

I was stuck in a rut with a car that stalled on me, so I had it towed to Mike's. John Argo was very professional, got to the root of the problem at once, sent me pictures of what was wrong -- and charged me a reasonable amount for the work he did.I highly recommend this place. Family business, too.

Mike's Auto lost my business last weekend by making me feel uncomfortable and objectified due to my gender (female) and age (mid-twenties). As I was pumping gas, the men working in the garage were staring at me, one very intently in particular. When I went to pay, I was interrupted by a disabled worker, who the group of men had clearly sent to talk to me. He asked me my age (I answered) and immediately rejoined his group without explaining himself. And I was left to walk back to my car, still being intently stared at and thinking about the explicit or insulting conversations they could have had about me. There is another gas station right down the street, which I will be using from now on.
