Auto repair service near Lackawanna, NY

Problem come Scruggs make problem gone Papo come Car has cel how come?

My vehicle was towed to Scruggs. They do not work on Friday, Saturday or Sunday so it’s sad there for over five days when they finally were able to look at it. They charged over $2300 for a water pump replacement and one headlight two license plate lamps. It then died a few days later. My regular mechanic said he could see the fire going inside the vehicle due to the alternator not being tightened enough from repairs done at Scruggs. Now I am out an additional $650. Do not recommend.

1976 Ridge Rd, West Seneca - Sign out front says $6.95 for a state inspection. I'm in! When you're in and getting the inspection he tells you it's extra for the emissions portion of the inspection so you only save a few bucks off regular price. That's deceiving and untruthful. Makes you wonder how the rest will go- immediately a red flag for me. He soon tells me the rear brakes will need replacing (at an exorbitant amount) and he took me in to show me- he had a hard time getting his gauge to go below the 1/16 of an inch state minimum you need to pass so he was tilting the gauge and tried at least 15 times (not exaggerating) in front of me (but could not produce it) than just said- "yeah those wont pass". He then said I needed a new left front strut as he said it was angled and look bent. He said it made a popping noise when he raised the car on the lift. It did look funny but I noticed they had moved the boot (covering of the strut that looks like an accordion) partially up off the bottom so it was not sitting right- I placed it back down where it should have been and I said, "Well, I'm not seeing what you're seeing." He then told me the strut was only a recommendation and not a part of the inspection. So, I left there without passing (due to the brakes). I took it to another place and they checked both the brakes and the strut (which I told them about) and passed. The moral of the story for me is NEVER GO TO A PLACE THAT STARTS WITH THE WORD "VALUE". In this case it means, more money, dishonest, partial truth and scheming. Also notice on the walls that there are no signs regarding cost of anything! Not even the sign they legally have to post regarding the cost of inspections!

First choice is the only place I would take my vehicles for repair. Finding an honest mechanic is very rare. Not only are these mechanics honest but their work is OUTSTANDING…..My 2003 Ford should have gone to the junk yard years ago but Jimmy and his guys miraculously continue to find ways of allowing this car to get me from point A to point B. Just last night; I was unable to start my car (the battery is 5 years old). Jimmy sent a driver immediately to my rescue. The battery was jumped and I was on my way. Of course I will only go to First Choice to have this battery replaced. Thanks again guys

Had a bad experience at another marine service center in the area (by Bethlehem steel) so decided to try Olson by the small boat harbor. Great service. Lisa who works at the desk took lots of time to explain what my issue could be. She called when they found out and told me what the repair would cost and asked if I wanted to move forward. When it was fixed, I picked it up and she showed me the bad part (gimbal bearing). Her knowledge of the mechanical aspect of what was going on seemed very impressive. Also, she took the time to explain as well as make other suggestions to questions or fixes I could do my self. A family business that takes pride in their work and values their customers. Very trustworthy and will go the extra mile.

I am just writing to saw how well my trip to the Niagara Street downtown Buffalo location went today, Friday, June 13th around 10:30am. I wanted to let you know that I am so happy with the amazing customer service provided by Mike Girling, your Manager. I am currently having brakes (rotors, pads, sensors) put on my SUV and am happy with the way he explained your services needed and prices. I know I was given a great fair price compared to what the dealer would offer. I am a first time customer but now will keep coming back and will be sending family and friends back as well.

IF YOU BEST & HONEST WORK SEE NORM!!!! YOU DONT GET THIS KIND F SERVICE ANYMORE """HONESTY"""

Gabe's Collision on Sheridan Drive did OUTSTANDING JOB, On My vehicle, when I arrived, I didn't even no my car could look that great, its been a few weeks, my car still look like it came off the show case, Great Job on the repairs, it looks like a new vehicle again. I would highly recommend this Gabe's location. Happy Holiday to the Staff at Gabe's Collision.

Fantastic service at the best prices. Needed new front brakes. Mechanic was fast and very knowledgeable, explained everything, even if my questions were basic. Best service I've had.......beats the other chain store where I used to go for brake service. I'd recommend AAMCO Sheridan to everyone. Would have given all five stars but the place is a bit grungy. It's a car shop, not a luxury hotel. Easy to deal with, bring a book or laptop and let Joe and Brian take care of everything; you're in good hands with these pros. This shop will continue to get my business. Thanks for all your help.

had my and my daughters car towed 5 miles and was charged $600 . the invoice was complete when we picked up the car but the service guy kept adding more charges buyers beware
