I just had my first experience with Kings for new brakes on my SUV. Robert was courteous, prompt, and did a great job. Will definitely come back again. Thanks, Robert!

Kings was excellent. My brakes started making a grinding noise so I made an appt for a couple days later in the week. Decided to bring it in that day for a test drive because I felt fearful of driving it for two more days. The owner didn t get out of the driveway before telling me I couldn t drive it. He said he would try to get parts and fix it that day. He sure delivered! I picked up my car 3 hours later, good as new. Kings was just super and I will continue to bring both our cars there for all service. Thank you!!

Called to have a quote for mounting wheels, was told it would cost $150 and that it would be a week before he could get to it. Called Avery auto care next door was quoted $30 for the same installation.

Kings is great, been going to them for years and never had an issue whatsoever. They re fast and will always try to get you in asap. I even brought my car in once and thought it needed new brakes, but Robert called and said they were fine and didn t charge me. Other places may have just done the unnecessary repair without being honest about it.Services: Auto brake repair, Oil change

I had another great experience with King's last week. Robert and team gave our car a 100,000 mile checkup, oil change, and rear brake job.Robert kept me posted throughout the process and I was able to pick up our car right when he said it would be ready. He also reviewed a concern I had about a potential control arm issue and confirmed that there was no work needed to that end.I will continue to trust King's with out auto maintenance and repair needs!Services: Air & cabin filter replacement, General repairs & maintenance, Tire rotations, Brakes, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Oil change

I was in a real bind and needed service. Even though they were booked out I was able to leave my car. As luck would have it they were able to tend to my car the same day. Most other shops would not have been so understanding and accommodating. I have used Kings in the past as well and they are really top notch mechanics and a great place to support.Service: Electrical repair

Recently moved to the area from Florida and was looking for a mechanic local to me to bring my truck in for a 100k service. Of course not knowing anything before, I went into using Kings blind and they certainly did not let me down. They did an excellent job servicing my vehicle and finding an issue that I wasn t aware of. They did not try to bargain me with repairs I didn t need, and the total charge was very reasonable. I will definitely be bringing my truck back to kings for any auto maintenance I need in the near future.Services: Steering & suspension repair, Electrical, Tire rotations, Auto maintenance

Called for a check engine light that kept coming on. They got me in quickly, did the work and got me on my way. They let me know things to watch out for with my car without upselling me on more work. Very happy with the service and will use them again.Service: Auto engine diagnosticService: Auto engine diagnostic

Our go to mechanic for the last 7 years. They know auto repair, excellent mechanics with a lot of knowledge and attention to important details. Fair prices (I always spend less over time doing all my auto repairs including buying tires, oil changes over chain shops or dealerships) and trustworthy. Good guys too.Services: Tires, Auto battery replacement, Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Auto brake repair, Tire rotations, Engine repair, Vehicle Inspection, Auto tire replacement, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Battery, Oil changeServices: Tires, Auto battery replacement, Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Auto brake repair, Tire rotations, Engine repair, Vehicle Inspection, Auto tire replacement, Auto maintenance, Auto brake replacement, Battery, Oil change

Recently I took my car to the dealership where I bought my car. I went in for an oil change. After that, I was told I needed new brakes very soon as they were now metal on metal. I thought that odd as I hadn t had any problems with my brakes.I then made my first appointment with King s Auto on Main Street in Reading. I dropped off my car and within a few hours, I received a call from Robert, the owner, stating that I wouldn t need brakes for another 10,000 miles. I was happily surprised and delighted that Robert was honest with me. Not only will I return to him when I need auto service but also many of my friends who were impressed with his honesty, are thinking of switching to King s!Service: Brakes

I am new to the area and spent quite some time looking for a new mechanic. I came upon King's Complete Auto Center and read nothing but great reviews. I decided to give them a shot and bring my car in for some much needed repairs. My brakes were metal on metal, my air conditioning stopped working, and I had concerns about my tires.Rob called shortly after I dropped my car off to let me know what needed to be fixed right away and within 6 hours King's had my car back to normal at a super reasonable price. I couldn't be happier with their work and will continue to use them going forward.Thanks again!!Services: Air & cabin filter replacement, General repairs & maintenance, Brakes, A/C installation & repair

Had a 100k mile service completed at Kings. They walk me through the process and ask if I wanted a timing belt replaced which should happen in 105,000 mi. They didn't push me, they gave me a quote for all services and we talked it through and decided to do it. I was very pleased that these guys and did a great job and completed it in the short amount of time I needed my car back. Would highly recommendServices: Air & cabin filter replacement, General repairs & maintenance, Engine repair, Brakes, Oil change

Kings is the best mechanic experience I ve had in the Greater Boston area. I had an old battery that was about to go and Kings caught it before it was too late. They re consistent, transparent, and their attention to detail separates them from the rest.Services: Air & cabin filter replacement, Tires, General repairs & maintenance, Tire rotations, Wheel alignment, Battery, Oil changeServices: Air & cabin filter replacement, Tires, General repairs & maintenance, Tire rotations, Wheel alignment, Battery, Oil change

Robert and his team take care of my car every year when I m in MA. My daughter referred me there, and I have never been disappointed. They are courteous, professional, and prompt, always getting my car in and out in a reasonable time, and dealing with the rare emergency quickly. I plan to continue to patronize their business for as long as I am in the local area.Services: Tires, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic

I have been a client of King s Complete Auto Center for over 10 years and I have always had an excellent experience when I bring my car in for service. Robert and his staff are very professional and their repair work is top notch. I have worked with many auto repair services over the years and King s is by far the best value and the best overall service shop around. I would highly recommend them and have referred many friends to them.

Been bringing my cars to kings for 15 years. Wouldn t take me car anywhere else and I live over 20 minutes from there now. Rob is very reasonably priced and doesn t try to sell you things you don t need. If you need anything mechanical done to your car I would highly recommend kings.Service: BrakesService: Brakes
