Auto repair service near Cambria Heights, NY

Best shop. The guys have been fixing my car, my parents car,and my grandparents car for over 15 years and their still the best.I would definitely recommend this repair shop. I send all my friends to this shop and they also love the guys.Very honest mechanics.

COWBOY has returned from out of state to "5 Star Auto" on 40 Munson Street in Port Washington (just before the Willowdale Bridge), across from the extra train lot by Davis Ave and the carwash. He's been my favorite car guy for DECADES. I can't believe that he's back!!! He also took great care of my Dad's Lexus' cars and my Mom's numerous Mercedes vehicles. He is THE ABSOLUTE BEST THERE IS. An honest and awesome professional mechanic - and I know plenty (surprisingly). Honest to a fault, unbelievable as it might seem in this town. When I had a very bad flu a few years ago (not COVID) and was living alone, he sent two staff members over to pickup my car in my driveway at Sands Point, do the annual NYS inspection, and drop it back off at my house a day later. He only charged me the price for the NYS inspection. He is a MENSCH! Without question. I was a great personal friend of his partner, who moved away to work only for BMW. Anyway, I'm sure there's tons of suggestions for auto body work in this group, but this is MY GUY. He's back in town and if you need an incredible auto mechanic that's a stand-up guy with very reasonable rates, go to him. You can mention my name, but it isn't necessary. Love COWBOY! ? I absolutely GUARANTEE that you'll be satisfied and not taken advantage of at all. They replaced a side door for me, practically at cost only, many years ago. GOOD PEOPLE. If anyone experiences different, tell me please. I just called to get a new inspection and still can't believe that he's back. So psyched! ???? 5 Star Auto (516) 767-2245 40 Munson Street

I wanted to write a review , because I had a very hard time finding the owner of this company .Thats why I gave him a 4 rating . I asked around on a guy to do a yanmar survey on a boat I was purchasing , a 40 mainship . Over and over again the same name came up superior , was told if your selling a boat with diesels you don’t want to see this guy show up ..I tired calling him and tracking him down online to fine some of his old numbers don’t work ..I finally emailed him after taking to one of of his old customers He called me in 15 minutes , I talked to him set up a date , and he came to do the survey as planned I did not purchase this boat , because of his findings ..I later purchased another one with Cummins As he gave that boat a clean survey . He’s not a guy that likes to talk , but He knows diesel boats well I would recommend him ..if you can get him it’s worth it ..what I understand there only a hand full of guys that have been around for years , Superior , wesco , Steve’s marine . Now I store my boat at his marina for the winter .Rob has been doing this all of his life , I trust him .

Went there for state inspection. They told me that my car needs front break pads. I was surprised because day before I went to my dealer for oil change and state inspection, which they could not do because of their broken machine and they did mention that my car needed break pads after courtesy meticulous inspection. Dealer’s multipoint inspection sheet indicated that my break pads are less than half way through. I guess it is dealer’s word against Midas’s word. But I’m sure dealer would not pass on this job if my car needed pads and release me in unsafe vehicle. Not wanting to pay for failed state inspection, I went with replacement. Midas charged me $99.99 for Centric ceramic front pads only! + $106 for labor. I think I got the DEAL OF a LIFETIME here as such break pads cost no more than $30 all over the internet. I still could have done good mileage on these break pads. Rip off and scam. Will not go there again!
