I stopped going to Better Auto Care cause It seemed like Eli no longer wanted to fix my vehicle. I complained a few times to Eli about a metal on metal touching sound when I turn the corner and also about a bouncy wobbly feeling when driving my car. He CLAIMED he didn't see anything wrong with it. I took it to another mechanic and immediately he was able to identify the problem. Turns out that I need new cv boots ( that's why I was hearing the metal touching metal sound) and I also need new sway bars links with new springs ( that's why I was experiencing the bouncy wobbly feel while driving). How can a trained mechanic not see that. If he really had check out my car or even driven it he would have noticed that right away. I'm not a mechanic and I noticed something was wrong with my vehicle. I use my vehicle to do Uber and that not only dangerous to me but also my passengers and other people on the road, for a trained mechanic to say their is nothing wrong with the car.

I love this place. They never lie about what you need, they look at your car if you bring it in and tell you everything that's wrong or if it doesn't need to be fixed right away. Definitely trustworthy and do great work.

Came in last minute to get my car inspected. They were phenomenal. I was in and out quickly, the price was fair and they were courteous. All around a great, easy experience.

I won't take my car any place else. Proud to say they have been my mechanics for over 10 years and my friends go there too!! No not cheap, but not over priced either. They are honest, and the job is done right the first time. Ladies if you're looking for a good mechanic go here. Great Service!!

I have never encountered a nastier person that the owner. They do good work but you would ever get me to recommend that auto repair to anyone. You can be good but when you act like a down right jerkoff I take my business elsewhere

Would 10/10 recommend to anyone these aren t the guys who say oh it s your brakes fix your brakes then say oh it s your axle, no, they tell you what s wrong and get it fixed right the first time.

Better Auto Care is top notch. They aren't the cheapest mechanics but they offer something special. Not only are they top notch mechanics they are honest! You never have to worry about being taken advantage of and to me that is priceless. Go and see Ben and Eli and you will not be disappointed.

These guy are probably the among the most honest mechanics I ve been too. They won t try and upsell you on repairs your car doesn t really need and they will fix your car for the least cost to you if at all possible.

Customer service wasn t great. I came in an got a tune up and it wasn t done, I had to take it to jiffy lube and they showed me the plugs and they were still the stock plugs. Managers need to check there employees work and make sure it s done correctly. Also I had one spark plug that was loose and jiffy lube employee took it out by hand which isn t good. I would only take my car in for inspection never a tune up.

Don't use these guys very very rude their website looks all nice nice because you see the big fire trucksQuoted me a price and then jacked it up 85 saying they had used more shop material etc. When I questioned and said I don't mind a few dollars more I was told Pay me the money but don't come back again very very very nasty I will be talking to the kenilworth people about where they service their fire and rescue trucks because if they are beating me , how much are the beating the squad this is very very disappointing , never in my life have i had a business owner act so nasty ,along with his son most owners are understandable and act professional will never never go back , not to mention they forgot to put my oil cap back on my fill and it spewed oil all over the engine compartment
