My husband and I just had the best experience here. Vlad was very helpful and easy to work with. He was also really honest about what needed to be repaired and gave us a great price. Looks like we found ourselves a new mechanic and will be going back for all of our car needs in the future.

Vlad is an honest mechanic with high integrity very knowledgeable in almost all kinds of Vehicles. I feel safe driving my high millage BMW as long as Vlad service my car. Having a high millage German car could be very expensive going to dealership but at Vlad shop cost me at least half of what used to pay at dealers. Above all I have total confidence that he does the right thing. A few times I thought my car needed service or check engine light came up and it was a computer error when Vlad checked and he simply said is nothing and it needed to be reset. He didn't even charge me. How many people can you find that have so much honesty and integrity. My car got stuck in Queens 80 miles away, I towed the car all the way to Vlad. I had lost power, power steering and over heating. It seemed major to me and a mechanic in queens could have told me it would cost me $2500 I would have believed that. When Vlad check the car he showed me a mechanical part that caused the failure of all three. The cost $210. How many mechanic can you find that educate you and show you these. He inspired me to be a better businessman. He is great find for me. I wish him all the success! Hans.

I initially went to Vlad based on the reviews I saw here, and I was not disappointed. He was forthcoming about what was wrong with my car, and more than fair on the pricing. The service was fast, I had a major repair finished in a day. Will definitely be going back in the future.

I have been using Vlad for 12 years. It s nice to have someone you trust never a worry or doubt Vlad gets the job done. Honest, Fair & fast. What else do you need he gets 5 Stars in my book. My whole family uses him & we refer all to him.

Was unhappy with my Audi dealer service and thank God I found Vladimir. Smart, honest, cares about his work and even came in on his day off when I had a problem. I will continue to bring all my cars to him and I will only recommend Vladimir to friends. You won t find a better mechanic anywhere.

It s always a pleasure taking my car here. I feel like Vlad is a very honest guy and is always looking to do the right thing for you and your car. The service is always quick with very little wait time. I highly recommend this place.

We rolled in from NYC for the weekend and needed to head back to the city Sunday. I called right when they opened then brought her straight in. Vlad knew I and my friends would be stranded so he got my clutch replaced same day. I couldn t be happier and the price was definitely reasonable.

Finding the right mechanic is like finding the right hairstylist. Once you find the right person you never go or trust anyone else. Vlad always makes me feel like my car is in the right hands thanks so much for your care!

Its always a risk when you bring your car to a new mechanic. Sure you read the reviews, but even then it does not always work out. In this case, the positive reviews are deserved. The shop is honest, and his prices are extremely fair.

Best place ive been to in awhile. Honest and fair. Came in for a tranny fluid change and he showed me i needed a new axle. Was told by another place i need 2 new axles and a mount. He said no... i only need one axle and the mount is fine. Love the honesty. Will definitely be back to have new axle put in (and a starter)VERY GOOD PRICES

He picks and chooses his customers! This is a warning to anyone who thinks about going to Riverhead Auto Center ! I m telling you right now from experience! My car was at his shop , in the same spot for months ! I paid $4,000 to get it fixed. And he promised that it would run like new.. turns out he DIDNT EVEN TOUCH IT !!! He played me ! Don t get robbed ! I learned from this one ! Never going back

Great mechanics with very competitive pricing. I was very pleased with the work done. It's very hard to find good/honest mechanics these days. This is the place to find them. This is my go to garage from now on.

The guy knows his stuff and charges a fair rate thats very competitive to other auto centers. They were a little sloppy however and forgot to put back the old thermostat in my car. I might go back again.

This has been absolutely the worst service ever. I m so disappointed on how a shop can care more about money, rather than satisfying customers mechanical issues. Don t waste your money or time here!

Unfortunately I have to retract my original statement one problem lead to the next, several trips back and forth several miles wasted on gas and wasted timeAllegedly Replacing my o2 sensors and fixing my catalytic converter with my problem still unsolved I ultimately had to bring it to a second shop.

Not a trust worthy business man. Does not pay his bills. Find somewhere that will be around for a while, he won't.
