Emissions testing service near Brewster, NY

I had quite a bit of work done here over the last year, despite the relatively high prices. Bruce was very communicative about what they found and the work that they were doing, and that initially gave me a good impression. But with my most recent experience I am no longer a fan. When I had my car inspected last August they told me that I needed a new wheel bearing, which I had them replace along with quite a few other maintenance services for a $1000 bill. The wheel bearing failed earlier this year, which they replaced under warranty -- still a fan. Last week, that same bearing failed again when I was on the road a couple of hours away, and they were not receptive to discussing a warranty repair unless I had the car towed back to the shop. The new mechanic told me he didn't know how the bearing could have been replace properly in the past since there was an old bolt that was seized and clearly not removed, which suggests to me that I had two good bearings replaced with bad practices. Exactly the thing that I do not want from my mechanic. I am very disappointed with this treatment (and out another $400-500), and would not recommend this shop based on this experience.

AFTER SPEAKING WITH THEIR HEAD MECHANIC, WE HAD OUR ROLLS ROYCE DELIVERED TO CARRIAGE HOUSE ON APRIL 4, 2013. HE INFORMED US HE WAS AN “EXPERT” AND THAT OUR MECHANICAL ISSUE (THE ALTERNATOR WAS NOT CHARGING) WOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM. HE WANTED $1,000 UP FRONT FOR A “DIAGNOSIS”. WE GAVE HIM THE MONEY. IN MID-MAY HE SAID HE NEEDED MORE TIME AND MONEY. WHEN WE WERE HESITANT, HE TOLD US THAT THE DIAGNOSIS HAD NOW BECOME A MATTER OF “PRIDE” TO HIM AND THAT HE WOULD NOT CHARGE US ANYMORE MONEY. HE WENT SO FAR AS TO TELL US THAT HE HAD A GROUP OF HIS MECHANICS WORKING ON THEIR “OWN TIME” TO ASSIST HIM IN FINDING OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. HE HELD THE CAR UNTIL JULY 9, 2013 AND WHEN WE ARRIVED TO PICK UP THE CAR (ANOTHER FLAT BED RIDE!), WE HAD TO SIGN A RELEASE. TO THIS DAY HE STILL HAS NOT GIVEN US A DIAGNOSIS AS TO WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR. HOWEVER, WE SHOULD NOTE THAT WHEN WE WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR, IT HAD BEEN FRESHLY WASHED. WE SENT THE CAR TO PATRICK’S IN SIMSBURY, CT. AFTER TWO DAYS IN HIS SHOP, OUR CAR WAS REPAIRED AND IN FANTASTIC WORKING ORDER. IN THE FUTURE, IF WE WANT THE WORLD’S MOST EXPENSIVE CAR WASH, WE WILL SEND OUR CAR TO CARRIAGE HOUSE.

Hello Everyone, I would like to share my repair experience with foreign auto repair service: Both Glenn & Lisa were consummate professionals during the entire process of troubleshooting my diesel Range Rover. They kept me abreast on the entire process, provided a thorough photo of all the work provided with photos of the work conducted allowed me to use their car while they repaired my car which is above and beyond generous. Glenn kept me posted through txt messages daily. They isolated the problem, worked with the warranty company on the repair cost ensured I understood what I was responsible for on the repair cost and returned my car back repaired. Thank you for the great service it’s appreciated. I will be back hopefully not to soon but when needed I will entrust you to work on my again in the future. Joe V. ??

Needed state inspection and oil change. By the end of the service visit, they had managed to find $600+ in repairs to perform. When the car arrived at home, it was leaking oil. Upon returning the car to the shop, they stated it was just over-fill dripping (despite the fact that the oil was coming from a hairline crack in the oilpan. That leak continued until the next opportunity to get the car serviced. I made the mistake of returning to Goodyear 44-plaza to have the oilpan replaced. They took 3 days to do the service but didn't call on day 3. On day 4, they said, "we may not have called you yesterday but it was ready then." From the moment the car left the lot, it made a roar like something was connected incorrectly or like the muffler had been damaged. They said to bring it back tomorrow. I have taken my car here several times and this shop finds hundreds of dollars of service and repairs with each visit. More recently they have caused more harm than good. I will not be returning and I recommend you find a reputable service shop rather than visiting Goodyear.
