Very fair and responsive. Could have been faster, but I dropped a non-starting vehicle in their lap with no advance notice...

Call ahead if you can. Shamrock has worked on 3 different vehicles for me. most recently repalced wheel bearings on my explorer. rapid service, reasonable price, actually was about $75.00 LESS than i was quoted and expected. the difference in the handling of my vehicle was amazing and noticed within seconds of pulling. the owner (?) is knowledgable and willing to explain what is going on with your vehicle. He has my business and I'd suggest him to anyone I know

Had our truck towed there for a new alternator, picked it up got less then a mile up the street & the check engine light came on & all the radiator fluid was pouring out, they towed us back & fixed the problem, we left again & got just a little further then the 1st time & it started shaking so bad he had to pull over, we took it back AGAIN & they tried to say it was like that when it came in. We were furious that they charged us a 2nd time for the radiator problem & tried to get more money out of us to fix the shaking that had only started after leaving their shop. We took it to another mechanic & he said things were obviously missing that was causing it to shake, things that couldn't just fall off. He also looked at the blown tube that caused the radiator fluid to leak & said it looked like it had been punctured by something. The owner could care less about the whole situation & kept trying to tell us it wasn't their fault & the mechanic was rude!! DO NOT GO THEIR!! WORST SHOP EVER!

They always provide fast, courteous service that's reasonably priced. It's so nice to have a versatile mechanic you can trust. Darlene Austin

Dad passed away & his 2005 f-150 was stuck in low 4wd - most likely from sitting nearly a year. Scheduled a visit to Benchmark Trans in Dover, DE. Dropped off & got a call the next morning to state that a ground was loose & truck was tested & running correctly. Told to come pick-up at my convenience. No charge for free diagnosis. This type of INTEGRITY & HONESTY are rare attributes in todays market economy. I am a PERMANENT customer of Benchmark Dover, should the future need ever arise. THANK YOU Bob, THANK YOU James, THANK YOU BENCHMARK DOVER!

As someone who works in the car world and is very cautious when it comes to mechanics, I can say hands down these guys are the best! Everyone I met was friendly, helpful, patient and went out of their way for me. The work required for my car required a lot of investigation to discover the issue and could have cost thousands to fix, but Bill researched a more affordable resolution that got the job done and hopefully will prevent the issue from arising again! If you need anything done, be it a simple oil change or a huge, complex job Milex is the place to bring your vehicle. I will never go anywhere else and when someone needs a mechanic this is where I will send them. Thanks Bill & Kimmy, you guys are brilliant!

Quality service for over 30 years.
