Have had work done on several of my cars. Work is always done well, and good mechanics. Cleanest auto repair place I have ever been in!

First time customer. Went for a timing belt/water pump and Serpentine belt change and got more. My engine was cleaned, tire pressure corrected, daytime driving light installed without asking. Vince and company are great at what they do. I drove 30 minutes and bypassed a few recommendations and it was well worth it. Clean shop, honest work, reasonable price, and down to earth atmosphere. Already recommended to a friend with similar experience. Great, honest, reasonable and friendly mechanic who would have thought. Vince is my mechanic. You won't be disappointed.

Small town Ma' and Pa' Auto Center with world class service and no-nonsense love for automobiles. Henry Ford would be proud of this place keeping his fine vehicles road worthy and ship shape. Hats off to Jeff Bethman for all his hard work and dedication to the township and community!Stop by and get winter road-ready with some snow tires!

I ve been coming here for a couple of years for routine maintenance and I ve got to say that this is the best shop I have ever been to. Just all-around professionals! Prices are reasonable and they clearly break down every item on the bill. They communicate when you can expect your car to be ready and stick to it. When calling to schedule an appointment, they are friendly on the phone and quick to get you on the books. The guys in the shop are seriously just lovely people to be around and it s always a peaceful and positive experience stopping by. My car has been running great under their care. 10/10, would recommend to a friend.

I had my first experience with Bethman's on a rainy Friday afternoon when I was stuck on the side of the 413 bypass with a flat tire during rush hour. They were amazing! Came out super fast and towed me off the bypass and back to their shop. I was so grateful to see a friendly face! They didn't have the tire I needed in stock but ordered it right away and had it all fixed by 10:00 Saturday morning. I'll be keeping their card in my wallet just incase I need it in the future but plan on taking my cars there for regular service from now on.Service: Tires

Vince and the team at Lin Bethman are the best. I had a problem with the frame of my truck and was told that it was beyond repair. Vince ended up working over a weekend to fix it and made it better and stronger than it was before. He was honest, responsive , and explained things clearly and directly so I could understand him. We have four cars and he now has all of my business. Excellent experience!!Services: Steering & suspension repair, Body & Trim

I had a plethora of issues and needed a good amount of work done to my truck which is older. Vince and his crew were all great. He was upfront and honest and even came in lower than he originally quoted me on my work. I am forever grateful for the experience and will continue to have all my vehicles serviced here. I will highly recommend Lin Bethman s to all my family and friends.Services: Electrical repair, Exhaust, Auto engine diagnostic, Wheel alignment

First time at Bethman s and feel like I ve known them forever. Great family business that Truly care about your vehicle. Dropped off my daughters Jeep to get serviced before she takes it 500 miles away to college. I feel so much better knowing theychecked it over thoroughly and it passed with flying colors. Thank you!Services: Auto engine diagnostic, Oil change

Jeff and his staff are great to deal with. The team is very flexible on appointment times, and they always accommodate my schedule. The service is outstanding. Jeff advises me on what I do, and more importantly, DON'T need done on my vehicles. The work is done on time and at a very fair market price. If you're not currently using Bethman Auto I recommend that you do!

This is a service garage where you can say go over my car and tell me what it needs and trust that you ll get exactly that, and no more. Honest business, quality and timely service, and friendly staff as well. Nice to support local family business. You won t be disappointed.

This review is long overdue but due to my insanely busy profession, it has taken me a bit of time to write this review. Speaking of my very busy work schedule, Jeff made arrangements with me to get my truck to their shop while I was working and had it back to me when I was done for the day. I have to say that this shop came very highly recommend by friends and co workers. Bethmans got my inspection done, brakes replaced, oil changed, and an alignment all at a very reasonable price. I can not be happier with the service they provided me with and even though I never really met anyone in this shop, they l treated me like I was family. I will definitely recommend Bethmans to anyone looking for an honest and professional auto repair shop. Thanks again!!Services: Wheel alignment, Brakes, Oil change

My battery died in my company vehicle in an area that no one covered or would come out to. I called up this local garage and they were willing to help without hesitation! Vince came out in the exact time frame that he told me he would and took care our vehicle. He was very upbeat and friendly with a great positive attitude, something that s rare these days. Safe to say that our company will be calling these guys if we ever need assistance in this area again! Thanks again Vince!Service: Battery

These folks couldn't have been nicer. On the morning of a 6-hour drive home to MA, when they could've taken advantage of my situation, they were upfront, honest, and very affordable. Incredibly professional and polite, we need more places like Bethman's!Services: Tires, ElectricalServices: Tires, Electrical

Amazing Service all around. Thanks Vince, Nick, Scott and Jeff for the great job and care for my dads truck.

I googled tow because my car was breaking down. I live outside the area and the gentleman Vincent who answered the phone said why don t you let me take a look at it . That made more sense than having it towed 30 miles.They immediately diagnosed the problem. They could have easily robbed me blind. What Vincent explained made sense. He fixed it. Check engine light was off and the bill was reasonably priced.I m visiting my daughter here in Newtown. She was happy to know there is a good reliable mechanic in town should she need those services.I highly recommend this shop.Services: Exhaust, Auto engine diagnostic, Oil change

The sign in the window says "Walk-ins are Welcome". I was welcomed with friendly and speedy service for a tire repair to my rental car. Waiting room is clean and comfortable. Thank you, Scott for getting me back on the road again so quickly!Service: TiresService: Tires

Replaced our front tire that was destroyed by a pot hole in a timely manner. They politely and cheerfully aided us in dealing with our insurance company. Highly recommended.

I've been using Bethman for 6+ years now. The first time I called them my transmission dropped out of my car on the bypass. They towed me to my office for free. (less than a mile, but still.)Since then I've taken both of our cars there for regular service as well as major work. Their prices are always fair and they've always been honest about what my car needs (and what it can wait for).I only wish my new office was closer so I could drop off easier.
