Ac and heating repair service near Lancaster, NY

1976 Ridge Rd, West Seneca - Sign out front says $6.95 for a state inspection. I'm in! When you're in and getting the inspection he tells you it's extra for the emissions portion of the inspection so you only save a few bucks off regular price. That's deceiving and untruthful. Makes you wonder how the rest will go- immediately a red flag for me. He soon tells me the rear brakes will need replacing (at an exorbitant amount) and he took me in to show me- he had a hard time getting his gauge to go below the 1/16 of an inch state minimum you need to pass so he was tilting the gauge and tried at least 15 times (not exaggerating) in front of me (but could not produce it) than just said- "yeah those wont pass". He then said I needed a new left front strut as he said it was angled and look bent. He said it made a popping noise when he raised the car on the lift. It did look funny but I noticed they had moved the boot (covering of the strut that looks like an accordion) partially up off the bottom so it was not sitting right- I placed it back down where it should have been and I said, "Well, I'm not seeing what you're seeing." He then told me the strut was only a recommendation and not a part of the inspection. So, I left there without passing (due to the brakes). I took it to another place and they checked both the brakes and the strut (which I told them about) and passed. The moral of the story for me is NEVER GO TO A PLACE THAT STARTS WITH THE WORD "VALUE". In this case it means, more money, dishonest, partial truth and scheming. Also notice on the walls that there are no signs regarding cost of anything! Not even the sign they legally have to post regarding the cost of inspections!

I have been taking all my family's vehicles to Gerry's Service for many years. Old cars, new cars, SUV's and pickup trucks - they have all been taken care of so well by Bruce and the Boys! Service is always outstanding, appointments are easy to make and the price is always very reasonable. I can't tell you the number of times I brought my old vehicles in thinking thet were ready for the junk yard - I could not have been more wrong. Time after time, they brought these vehicles back to life for me. Don't waste your time at the dealer - head to Gerry's when you want it done right for the right price!

I wanted to share one of my worst experiences for an oil change. I stopped by the Amherst location around 7:45AM thinking I can just get in without an appointment, however, I was told that they had an 8AM appointment. I asked BOB the manager (not sure if he can call himself one) a simple question, "was there only one person working"? It seemed like I ticked him off. His response to me was, "what kind of business do you think I'm running, do you think I can have my employees working 12 hour shifts"? I just asked a simple question, I told him I'll come back at 9. Unfortunately I had to call 10 minutes prior to my appointment to re-schedule for later that day, he said to come in at 1:30. I get there asking him about the $19.95 oil change and the first thing he tells me is your truck needs 7 quarts, I said I've changed my oil at other Monro's and they never mentioned that. His response, "who do you think is going to eat up the cost?!". I was like just go ahead and put 7 quarts. Ten minutes later he asked me if I wanted two new front tires because they were low, he had suggested he can put them in the back but he would rather put new ones. I said just put them in the back (he must have not liked my answer). He then tries to cash me out and asks what coupon will I be using, I said the one on your website, he says which one, I say the $19.95 oil change. Can you show me? I had to pull it up on my phone (like he never saw one of these before). I finally cash out, and he tells me you are no longer welcomed in this location! I asked him to repeat what he just said and he says you heard me, like I can fire employees, I can tell a customer to not come in my shop anymore. I asked Bob, what kind of circus are you running here?, and he just asks me to leave. I did let Bob know that I would be writing a review. So there you go, if you happen to visit a Monroe and Bob is working (Amherst on NF Blvd), I would recommend going elsewhere. BTW, thanks to Bob, I will no longer be taking my

It's very refreshing to see someone take so much pride in his work as Joe does.

After an accident, I needed my driver’s side mirror replaced. I spoke directly to RG and he was knowledgeable about the part and estimated cost. I was contacted within hours with the exact cost and scheduled my repair. Everyone I spoke to at the shop was friendly and took great care of me. I would recommend going to Auto Collision and Glass for any car repair needed.

This shop is a joke. They preyed on my wife trying to charge her $145 for a serpentine belt change after failing her on an inspection. The serpentine belt for her car costs $16. Wow. There is actually a sign in their shop stating that if you give a positive online review they will give you money off service. Enough said. These guys are thieves.

Fair prices and knowledgeable mechanics. Fast service keeps me coming back Michael Klinger

First choice is the only place I would take my vehicles for repair. Finding an honest mechanic is very rare. Not only are these mechanics honest but their work is OUTSTANDING…..My 2003 Ford should have gone to the junk yard years ago but Jimmy and his guys miraculously continue to find ways of allowing this car to get me from point A to point B. Just last night; I was unable to start my car (the battery is 5 years old). Jimmy sent a driver immediately to my rescue. The battery was jumped and I was on my way. Of course I will only go to First Choice to have this battery replaced. Thanks again guys

I am just writing to saw how well my trip to the Niagara Street downtown Buffalo location went today, Friday, June 13th around 10:30am. I wanted to let you know that I am so happy with the amazing customer service provided by Mike Girling, your Manager. I am currently having brakes (rotors, pads, sensors) put on my SUV and am happy with the way he explained your services needed and prices. I know I was given a great fair price compared to what the dealer would offer. I am a first time customer but now will keep coming back and will be sending family and friends back as well.

I want to respond to the bad reviews listed above. First, go to Google and look up the 27 reviews which highly rate Syed,the shop owner, as the friendliest, most honest and best mechanic they have known. Second, go to Car-gurus and look at the near perfect 5 star reviews on this dealership. Ricky is close to perpetrating slander (libel) for writing a personal attack on someone by stretching the actual circumstance of his disappointment. He left a refundable $500 deposit subject to his finance approval. After securing his own financing, he told the dealer to proceed with the NYS Inspection repairs which required another $1000 investment by the dealer into the vehicle. This included fixing the check engine light which by NYS Law is required for all dealer inventory sold. After the repairs were completed, Ricky backed out of the deal because he lost his financing. The signed purchase order in NYS states the dealer is allowed to hold a deposit to recover $damages incurred by customer failure to complete purchase. Ricky agreed that it was fair for the dealer to keep his deposit until the vehicle was sold to another customer so that the invested repair $ could be recovered. Unfortunately due to the Pandemic of Covid 19 and business shutdown, it took many months to resell the vehicle. He has since received his $500 deposit back minus about $50 for paperwork and advertising cost damages which couldn't be recovered. $500 is a lot of money to both parties, especially when your dealership is closed for business during a pandemic.

Look elsewhere, this place has a lack of respect for your auto. They did paint repair to my car and it was nothing but a headache. OVERSPRAY!!! everywhere, interior carpet, door panel and exterior panels not being repaired!!! Didn't plug my headlight back in, door panel installed improper, missing body push pins, and worse of all BAD BLENDING OF PAINT!!. They offered to repair any issues but I told them first impression are everything and you failed miserably.. I took car to another shop to get thing fixed right. Oh yeah forgot to mention the paint started peeling on the edges after 2months, had a another guy look at it, they said no one sanded the surface down and that's why the paint is coming off. If you like your car or truck avoid this place at all costs!!
