Alternator and starter repair service near West Islip, NY

Elite was referred to me by a friend who is also a satisfied customer. As an individual with good mechanical knowledge as well as a car enthusiast my experience with Marc and Elite Auto Specialty has always been very satisfactory and pleasant. He has serviced and repaired 3 of my cars. For my review to be helpful to a potential customer I should cover all the important details I look for in a mechanic.

I have been using Clover for many years (20) & have always received excellent work, on time, at a very reasonable price! Bob the owner is honest @ is always looking to provide the best service for less!

I too have been bringing my cars to Tilden for many years and really appreciate the attention and quality service they have received. They treat their customers like family and will go out of their way to fix your problem and get you back on the road. I would, and do, recommend Tilden to all my friends and hope they are fortunate enough to try them and benefit from their fine service. See Tom, Pat or the Patriarch Joe and tell them Dick sent you!

Had a fantastic experience over at Brookside. It's never convenient to go without your car, and body damage repairs are always a mystery... But Paul and Richie over at Brookside really take care of you. I mean, I was blown away by their responsiveness, patience in explaining everything, and resourcefulness in arranging rental cars and dealing with insurance companies. My truck was back exactly when they said it would be. And it hasn't looked this good since the day I brought it from the dealer.

Pete is a good honest shop owner.He operates his business with the highest level of integrity.

This is not simply a service and gas station - Joe is a community member. When I buy gas in another town, I feel like I'm cheating ! We vote with our dollars every day - and it's important to support our community members. They also have pick up and delivery service for repairs and are always timely! Deirdre Ventura

They successfully repaired my German made car (BMW) and were quick and courteous. I would recommend them to people who live in Long Island.

Its the 2nd time I have used your shop and I have been very happy with your service and professionalism. I would not hesitate to refer friends and family. -Tom Santopetro

Good people you can trust. Nice Local place, we take ALL our family cars here. We even have then check out any used cars BEFORE we buy them! Get it fixed right the 1st time

As the Manager at this facility, I would like to take this opportunity to provide some information in regards to the previous post. The above customer came into our facility with two concerns. First, check a no start condition. It was a simple diagnosis, the starter had failed. We replaced the Starter, charged standard book time and the cost of a new, not rebuilt part. We even gave the customer a lifetime warranty on the part and did not charge a diagnostic fee. The second concern was to check a no heat condition. We verified there was no heat, and there was a noise coming from the dashboard area. I explained to Tony, this would require removal of the lower part of the dash board to diagnose and there would be a charge. It could be either an acuator, a blendoor, or even debris causing this condition. Tony declined. All the information was clearly marked on the receipt, in which, Tony had signed. I would be more than happy to repair the no heat condition on his old, high mileage vehicle, but he did not want it repaired due to cost. At AAMCO, we have been in business for over 50 years, and make customer satisfaction our number one goal.

If you're tired of getting robbed for your automotive needs or getting less than you paid for - then this is the place for you. Lance and his small team of mechanics, while all being quite young - are the real-deal - they have turned their personal passions for Subaru (all models & generations) - in to a business - making them a real specialty shop for virtually all your Subaru Auto needs. Don't get me wrong, they are not a 1-trick pony though - they service virtually all makes and models... I've recently had them address various items on my '15 WRX, including the subject Clutch & Flywheel Upgrade, perform an EGR delete, swap plugs, weld/repair a broken exhaust flange plate (which I thought for sure was unfixable without a new plate - Warren is a talented Genius welder) & Tim is a talented Dyno Tuner, (thanks to dyno time at Chameleon Racing in Bohemia). The entire team at Larsen's are super friendly, happy to share educated advice, sharp at finding issues and remedying them - all without charging an arm and a leg. Super flexible too - one of the best experiences I've had with an auto shop in my life - I currently travel over 35miles just to get my car worked on by them... Give 'em a try & let Lance know - Chris with the White 15' WRX sent you ;-)_03jul19

Great service love this place. Andy Jeffries

Very friendly and nice. Knew my name right away. Walked me through what they were doing to my car, and tried to save me (a university student) money where they could. Emily Stafford
