Auto repair service near Sanford, ME

Riverside Garage was founded by Edward George in 1946 in a barn along the Cocheco River in Dover. Eddie was the son of Lebanese immigrants living in the School St neighborhood in Dover. He had a brilliant mechanical mind, a gregarious personality, and a big heart, endearing him to a great many people. During the 50's and 60's, when Eddie’s children were born he took a job at General Electric and moved Riverside Garage to the base of Garrison Hill where his slogan became "On the hill, but on the level". After putting in a full day at GE, Eddie would then work on cars until late at night. It was here that Riverside Garage began to thrive due to great number of Eddie’s coworkers who became customers. Many of them, along with their children and grandchildren, are still customers of Riverside to this day. Shortly after Eddie’s son Charlie joined the business, the two moved Riverside to a former trolley car repair station on High St in Somersworth, NH. Here Riverside Garage has continued to serve the residents of Seacoast NH and Southern ME. Although Eddie has passed away, his sons Charlie and Tim, and grandson Eric continue the tradition he started over 60 years ago.

DO NOT GET YOUR VEHICLE INSPECTED HERE!!! I recently brought my 01 Jeep Wrangler in to have it inspected and they failed me because of a leaking power steering gear box and a leak in my exhaust. That was alright with me, seeing as these are important. So I brought it home and instead of fixing the issues, I just went out and bought a new PS Gear box, and a brand new exhaust (full exhaust including CAT, Muffler, etc.). I also installed both of those myself within 2 days. So I bring it back to Poulin within the X number of days and sure enough, they failed me AGAIN! They said I still had a leak in my exhaust, even though I replaced the whole thing. So I called him out and said to show me the leak, that's when he changed his story and said you could hear it but not see it. Keeping in mind, that he still couldn't point it out. Anyway, I brought it to a shop in downtown Rochester the same day, and they said it had passed WITH FLYING COLORS! No issues. This Poulin shop is clearly scamming its customers and failing us on purpose to have us pay them to service these false issues. ONCE AGAIN, I URGE YOU NOT TO BRING YOUR VEHICLE HERE, UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE SCAMMED LIKE I WAS.
