Auto inspection service near Pleasant Valley, 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.

Tom at tdc is extremely meticulous, while changing a bushing on my 2001 civic he noticed that it had gone bad due to a leaky transmission gasket which had left the bushing soaked in tranny fluid. He had both the gasket and genuine honda tranny fluid (along with the bushing) in the car within a few hours and he did it for half the price of the stealership. What a guy, I will always bring my cars to tdc.

Rose and Dimitri are honest, reliable and hard-working. I've been taking my car there for years and always come away with the feeling that someone "has my back" when it comes to my car. Thank you both and I will continue to come see you for great service, a smile or two and Oreo cookies!
