Brake repair service near Springfield Gardens, NY

This is a Shell Station. Avoid this mechanic like a plague rat. I came in for a quick oil change, they did it wrong, and I had to call the police over to get my car back. My experience: - They advertise an $19.95 Oil Change Special for 4 cylinder cars. - They demanded $35 after the service and claimed that the Oil Change Special does not include the oil filter, and that they topped off my washer and brake fluids. - I said I could pay them the $20, like they advertise. - They refused, and would not release my car. - I called the non-emergency police line to have the cops provide an objective view on our disagreement. - The owner agreed to honor his advertised price once the police talked to him. I go the car back and found out: 1) They lied. They never topped of any fluids, for which they tried to charge me. 2) They put in the wrong oil. My car is specified for 5W-20. They used 10W-30 If they cannot even do a simple oil change right, then I have no confidence in their ability to do anything more complicated.

I went in for a flat tire and these guys were great. they fit me in right before they closed and couldn't be nicer. I thought they'd tried to get me in and out so fast but the mechanic stayed after his shift was over to help me. I couldn't be happier with the service so even though I own a Honda I brought my car to them for my next service. Its been 4 years now and I still feel like a friend when I walk in and Joe, Mike, Helene and the gang make me feel comfortable, like they're not going to rip me off like the guys in new rochelle. thanks for staying honest, dch toyota city has a class act bunch. I may even buy a toyota next month when my lease is up :0)
