My favorite mechanic (and his brother down the street) they are very cheap and do great work. They do fix other "small" issues that were not expected but only if they fix something and down the road another part that fails... Like if you get an alternator and they see the starter will fail they will just fix it to save you money down the line, they do not charge full price maybe 50% to replace the starter (if that makes sense) very highly recommend this place

Don't walk... run from this shop! I would give Colon Auto zero Stars if I could. I don't like to write negative reviews. In fact, most of my reviews are positive especially when I experience a service that I think others could also benefit from. My experience with Colon was not at all positive. Here are the details: In Dec 2023, I bought a used car knowing it needed a new Steering Rack and Pinion. I called Colon Auto and spoke with the owner Carlos. I asked if I could buy the rack and pinion myself. He said yes, and would charge me for labor ($500). I ordered the rack/pinion from Rockauto and when it arrived I dropped off the car and part, as agreed. Carlos then calls me and said that the rack and pinion was defective. So I ordered another one from Autozone and dropped it off and picked up the "defective" one to return to Rockauto. Meanwhile, Carlos also said I needed rear brakes. So i ordered new rotors and pads for all four wheels (figuring this was a used car and I might as well start off with fresh brakes all around). When Carlos removed the exhaust pipes to replace the rack/pinion, he noticed the mufflers were rusted. But I told him specifically that I was going to have a different shop install new mufflers. Carlos was pushy about putting on new mufflers and actually started badmouthing the shop I told him I was planning to use. The other shop had installed a new muffler on my other vehicle and I was very satisfied. Carlos nevertheless went ahead and installed mufflers WITHOUT my approval. But he didn't just install any muffler, he chose a pair that made an annoying high pitch drone that was especially deafening while on the highway. I told him these mufflers were too loud. But his reaction was that if I buy a different pair he'll install them for "free". My total bill went from $500 to $1850.Also, while raising the car on the lift, Carlos didn't put the lift pads on the designated spot for lifting a vehicle, and I later discovered damage to the frame under the car.This is one of the worst experiences I've had with an auto shop in Manchester. Definitely don't recommend Colon Auto.

Think about what you want in a repair shop. For me, I look for honesty, transparency, friendliness (yes, I like a warm fuzzy when spending my $), timeliness and a reasonable price (not necessarily in that order). This business offered it all. I should mention I've worked in the car business for years, I'm aware of the many different ways shops take advantage of consumers and witnessed way too much condescension. No, it's not the Taj Mahal (waiting area is lacking) ... just go here to be treated right in every way.

I graduated from WVU and have been living here an additional 2 years since graduating and have struggled to find a good, honest mechanic. After searching through the posts on the Greater Morgantown, WV Forum group page on Facebook I found this company. I messaged the page and heard back immediately. I was able to schedule an appointment almost immediately. I cannot RECOMMEND this place enough!! The price was great, the worker(s) were professional, friendly, and quick and they did a great job. I am beyond relieved to have finally found someone I can trust to work on my car. I recommend this place to EVERYONE I know that needs any kind of car issues fixed. Great job guys and thank you SO much for the help. Very highly recommend! They re definitely worth the drive out to Cheat Lake!Service: General repairs & maintenance

Replaced my alternator, great service incredibly quick and professional. They called later in the day to check on me making sure all was good and that I was satisfied with the service. A++

Great service at a very reasonable price. Carlos is a very honest guy with reasonable pricing. Toyota quoted me to fix my steering wheel for 1500 and he fixed it for 120 and fixed my bumper which no one would even try to fix and did all that under an hour.

I ve had work done on my car at plenty of different garages. This one hands down does the best work I ve seen. No contest. If you need anything done go here because they will tell you everything you need and get it done affordably. 5/5. Seriously, stop wasting your time with other garages.
