Auto repair service near Hicksville, NY

We have a 2011 Nissan that was acting funny. It wasnt shifting smoothly. We took it to a couple of local places but they told us that a dealer would be best because they had equipment to diagnose later model cars that were only available to dealers. I was really hesitant. We were new to the area and always stayed away from dealers because they usually charge more. We looked on line and found a local dealer, Baron Nissan, that had good reviews. None of those reviews were for service but what we could find said really good things about their sales department so we had the car towed there and crossed our fingers. We met Frank the service manager who was very nice. He asked what the car was doing and we told him/. We left it there overnight and he said he would call us the next day. He called about 11am on Friday and said the car was done. A little surpised that it was done so quickly I asked if they had found the problem. He said it was just a control module that had to be reset, no big deal. The way the other mechanics had made it sound we were braced for a huge repair bill. When we went to pick it up they told us that they had checked and our car was still under the Nissan powertrain warranty ( which we had no idea about) and the bill was nothing, no money at all. They told us they checked the car and we needed front brakes and an oil change ( which I knew). They gave me a fair price and we had them do the work. Frank didnt try to sell me anything I didnt need or want and they did the brakes and oil change while we waited. Has a chance to talk to Frank while we waited, he was just a nice guy who welcomed us to the neighborhood. We have bought a lot of cars in our life, definately not my first rodeo and I never,ever went back to a dealer for service as a rule they are too busy, pushy and over priced. I gotta say Frank at Baron Nissan is the exception. We are so glad we found them

My dad owns a auto body shop in queens and eastern long island. He cannot believe the kind of work this auto repair shop does. he has been using a variety of different repair shops for subleting mechanical work.. he has used a lot of different shops in the past and he always felt every body was taking him for a ride and always had to return back because either the job did not get repaired right or there was something wrong. some how he found Mike at olympos auto service : ). he has family in Mineola, he had a problem with his personal vehicle and his sister recommended him to mike from olympos auto a few years ago. ever since, religiously he has been taking all the shop cars there, on top of his personal family cars. my dad is a very hard guy to please, so i don't know what happened between mike and my dad, but my dad swears by him and recommends him to all of our friends, family and customers. mike takes out the time to explain and show my dad the issues and problems. a mechanic like mike and his crew, is very hard to come by. most important is TRUST. as far as pricing, he uses the highest quality parts he can find, and as far as his labor, he is very fair... As far as my car, the first time i went to Mike, (drove a mission to get there), thought my car was going to go straight to the junk yard. 2500 dollars later, my car felt like it was not mine. felt like a new car. still driving my car three years later and getting repaired and maintained by mike and his crew. i TRUST Mike very much and i would never change him for anything.....GO HERE IF YOU WANT AN HONEST AND GOOD JOB......PS. DONT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE WOULD PUT BAD REVIEWS ABOUT OLYMPOS AUTO SERVICE. GO THERE AND SEE FOR YOURSELF.
