Owner (Tom) is a very funny guy, you just need to understand his humor. If you don t understand about cars, don t put your nose under the hood, let him find you the best solution to fix it. He won t rip you off for sure, he always tries to find best deals for costumers. It s hard to find good mechanics around the area and he is one of them. I ve tested him ;)

Tom is thorough and listens, not only to the customer but also to the vehicle. He has been able to diagnose issues with both my Subaru and Jeep. He explains what is needed, offering options in a straightforward and understandable way. His prices are reasonable and, most importantly, his fixes stay fixed. I trust what Tom says and never had to return because the job wasn't done right. After another auto repair company replaced my blower motor three times, Tom took the time to analyze the failures and correct the root cause of the problem. You can't ask for more.

This was the only shop to figure out my BMW TPMS issue. I would recommend coming here first to save you time.

I can't speak for others but I dread visiting auto repair shops and car dealerships. I usually encounter the shadiest sales guys & lying mechanics, especially when I come alone. With that being said, the visit to tom at B&G was very pleasant(not surprised based on reviews and my friend s recommendation)When I met with Tom, he explained the whole process up front. He told me they would not perform any work unless they receive my permission to proceed, and he kept me informed through the process. This place needs to earn an award for ethics !Tom provided honest feedback, did not do unnecessary work to make profit, and told me what has to be done now and what can wait.My family and friends will always bring our cars to Tom.

Very good honest mechanic. Tom is a nice man, with VERY good fair pricing. Another mechanic quoted me around $600 total, Tom worked with me and did everything plus oil change for $356.Highly recommend

I have known Tom the owner since 2008. I used to have a fancy car which was giving me trouble. I took it to a mechanic who calims to be a fourth generation mechanic. He asked me to buy part for $375 which I did. The mechanic got sick and refused to work on my car due sickness. I brought my car tp Tom of B & G Auto Repair. Tom asked me to retuen the partsp and he fixed my car for only $75.00 including parts and labor. Since then I always bring my car to Tom & also recommend him to my friends. Tom is an old time mechanic. He has the ability to diagnose car trouble without any computer help. God Bless Tom.

If you have a car problem this is the place to come to! Tom is a good mechanic and very honest! He takes pride to what he does and he will not lie about your car problem! He is honestly the only mechanic I trust blindly!

I came in for diagnostic check and to run an emissions test due to the fact that my check engine light came on. He charged us 60 flat to run the test. Where as I can go to autozone and they can do it for me for free, but I trust him to fix my car.. Told us he ll fix my car and restart the computer to see where the main problem on why my light is on. He took my car in for four days and said it ll be less than 400. He made us think that he ll fix my car so my engine light won t be on and to pass my emissions test. Four days later he made me pass the emissions but still charged us the full 400. We complained and he told us he ll deduct 60 off of the 400. Which was the 60 we gave for a diagnostic check. The 400 was only for his time, not to fix my car. I feel scammed because I could ve gone anywhere else or even to a family member and it would be a lot cheaper. Im definitely taking my business elsewhereService: Auto engine diagnostic

Have been bringing all my cars to Tom since I can remember. He's the most honest mechanic I've met and can actually figure out what's wrong with the car, sometimes even just from hearing it. He specializes in wiring and electrical and has worked magic on my 2000 Merc. CLK430! He's even fixed my old electric scooter when things seemed hopeless. Thank you Tom!

We broke down on the side of the hwy with a smoking engine and coolant puddling on the road. We met angel number one who took my husband in bumper to bumper traffic to get coolant. Angel number 2 was Tom. He diagnosed the need for a new raidiator and ordered parts in 5 min flat at 5 pm.They arrived 10 min later. He set my three little kids up with Tootsie Rolls and a slot machine. He stayed late, til 6:30, to replace the radiator and we were back on the road. Price was $200 less than he quoted. I hope we don t ever need to come back (we aren t local), but if we ever end up in this position in this area again, this will be our place!

So I took my car here and asked them to fix my ac condenser and radiator. They put a bogus on in which caused me to take my car back the following weekend on top of them replacing those parts they tell me my car keeps stopping because of a wire problem. Three months later my air still doesn t work and now they are saying you have a electrical problem which we can t service. This place is horrible I tried to stay because it was black owned and support black business but they only took my money and my car still doesn t run properly. I will never come back nor do I encourage anyone to take their business to them. Horrible is an understatement for this establishment.

Extremely rude the moment you ask for the part receipt. I needed it for my job and he refused to service the car on the basis that I asked for the receipt even though I am the one paying. Can't trust my life to a guy who takes the money but refuses to be transparent.
