BUYER BEWARE, WORST CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE!!! and this would be my 7th car. They are very deceptive, make sure what ever comes out of their mouths ends up on paper!! I had the unfortunate experience of purchasing my death trap of a vehicle from Baladi. At the time of purchase I was told that the agreed upon cash price would include sales tax and a 1 year warranty, was given the brochure for the warranty company and told to expect something in the mail in the next two weeks. However, in the midst of sealing the deal my child threw a major tantrum so I handed over the cash and left my partner to sign off on everything. They made sure not to show a breakdown on the receipt of the sales tax being included in the price, refused to re-write it and on the title itself wrote 0 for taxes. As if that was not enough, right after I pulled out the lot and made a right turn my dash lit up like a Christmas tree. I immediately went back and was given some lame excuse but was also told not to worry because I had the extended warranty. After driving for a little while the car would jerk, slow down and it would feel like something fell out from under the car but it would then recover and drive like normal. I took the car to my mechanic who told me there was a problem with the ABS system (the car randomly brakes on its own – EXTREMELY DANGEROUS). After waiting for two weeks to hear from the warranty company so I could take the vehicle in for repair I called Baladi and the sales guy claimed they never made such promise and of course all they did was give me the brochure and not put that in writing either. They took complete advantage of me being pulled away to calm my child and reneged on the major points of why I chose to make the purchase (the agreed upon price INCLUDING sales tax and the extended warranty) instead of going back to a previous dealer who had the same exact car minus the color of the interior leather for a couple hundred dollars cheaper but did not i

my car was sideswiped and even though there was not much damage it looked ugly. Took it to Barrys and they did an awesome job!!! Very satisfied. Car looks great. Thank you Barry's Auto Body!!!

Joe, Anthony and Roger and the staff are the best. They talk to you like a person. I've been to many shops over the years and these guys are knowledgeable, experts , fair, patient, trustworthy and best of all treat you with the utmost respect and tell you exactly what's going on with your car in a way that you understand fully. I would never go anywhere else and you shouldn't either.

On Oct 8, 2016 I called Meineke on Forest Ave today and mentioned my car had a rattle and that I was concerned if it was safe to drive. Steve who answered the call said no problem come in and we will look at it. Car is 15 years old with low mileage. Steve and Chris were excellent. They were very busy but within 5 minutes put the car on the left and said it was the heat shields that had to be adjusted. It was fixed in a matter of minutes with no charge. They are now my go to place for car maintenance. Highly recommend Steve and Chris who were courteous, knowledgeable and honest. Nice to know that in todays day and age there is still a place you can trust for fast and honest customer service. Way to go Steve and Chris.

Very kind shop manager who was able to get my car done the same day. I was very happy with the service and the prices. This was my first time at this repair shop but I will certainly go back in the future!
