DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE HERE!!!! Suggest reading below before even considering this sorry excuse of an establishment!!!! Dropped car off on Monday 16 Jun 14 to have it looked at for problems with acceleration and possibly something to do with the fuel system (per online research of others with the same type of problem). Explained to secretary at the desk when accelerating the car loses power and sometimes to the point I have to pull over because it wont accelerate which obviously is a danger while driving. Also stated car does not go past 4000 RPM at any time. First call from the secretary she stated "the car was hooked up to the “computer” and the problem was diagnosed as needing an ignition coil". She also stated the car needed new spark plugs and I agreed to have these fixed. She also stated to me that the problem might not be fixed and the other 2 coils might need to be changed as well. After 3 days another returned call and I guess the car was getting worked on at this time she stated since it was apart the plug wires and cap looked to be original and should also be replaced while the car was taken apart so I agreed to that as well. After picking up the car on Friday 20 Jun 14 as soon as I drove out of the parking lot I noticed the car was still not fixed. Went back into the shop and I guess the owner came out to see what was going on with the car. I explained to him the same exact thing I told the secretary when I brought the car in. He proceeded to take it for a test drive. Few minutes later he came back stating “yep there is a problem”. He stated "he was not working tomorrow he would have to get to it on Monday". He said something to the effect he needs to take off some part to have straight air flow to the exhaust to see if there is a problem in there or something like that. I can’t remember the exact part he stated he would take off. He then stated I could take the car home for the weekend so I had the vehicle if need be. After review of the bill I noticed at the very top where the desk clerk typed in check fuel system- 400 rpm wont accelerate gets better and gets worse. Under customer note it says 6 mile road test- ok (so apparently someone test drove the car after it was completed for 6 miles and didn’t see a problem. Funny I noticed it as soon as I pushed on the gas), and possible catalytic converter damage due to engine misfire (WHAT??? Glad nobody explained what this meant to me either). 6/23- Monday 10am- car dropped back off at Zuppos 6/24- Tuesday NO CALLS today. Wife called around 3pm and of course no answer and no returned call 6/25- Wednesday- still no calls. Drove to shop at aprox 11am to find out what was going on with the car. Was told by secretary that “owner” isn’t there that he is out test driving vehicles. Asked on info about the car and she said she knew nothing. Did not want to give me wrong information. Also stated a Kia was there with the same problem. 6/26- Thursday NO CALLS 6/27- Friday- called at 0900 am. Talked to the owner and his first statement to me on the phone was “can you give me a little more background on the car”. Told him to have the car ready I would be there to pick it up in 15 minutes. 2 weeks later… $680 less in my account and a car I need to take to a real car garage to have fixed!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED PEOPLE!!!!!

very helpful and accommodating

It was great having my car picked up by one of your trusted employees. The service was prompt, and the price right. The mechanic even reset my check engine light for the next time. Thanks for a job well done.

This place is reliable, honest, neither slow nor fast, and is economical. It is best to call them during working hours, describe the issue(s), and set an appointment for drop off. They allow you to drop the keys through a mail slot and leave your car if dropping off before they open. They call you if there are issues and when the auto is ready for pick up. They offer great services, at good prices, give decent estimates, and communicate any issues during the process. The only drawback is that Tom is kind of a curmudgeon. He is a very honest and trustworthy person, but is grumpy nine times out of ten. My wife and I have been going to Stephanou's for about seven years or so. They are awesome.

Been taking my imported car problems to Fred Sonsini off and on since the 1990s. Terrific service, high integrity, fair prices, extensive knowledge and experience. "Old school" in the best sense of the term. Highly recommend.

As someone who works in the car world and is very cautious when it comes to mechanics, I can say hands down these guys are the best! Everyone I met was friendly, helpful, patient and went out of their way for me. The work required for my car required a lot of investigation to discover the issue and could have cost thousands to fix, but Bill researched a more affordable resolution that got the job done and hopefully will prevent the issue from arising again! If you need anything done, be it a simple oil change or a huge, complex job Milex is the place to bring your vehicle. I will never go anywhere else and when someone needs a mechanic this is where I will send them. Thanks Bill & Kimmy, you guys are brilliant!

Was searching for a 2012 VW Jetta Sportwagen TDI online and saw Huber's listed on the USAA and Carguru websites. Only problem was it was almost 2 hours away! The car's pictures, description and detail on the website made me give them a call. Eric Reder filled me in on the details over the phone and stressed how much work they put into the car before putting it on the lot. I was surprised to hear that because the car only had 36,000 miles on it! He also said that the car looks better in person than in pictures (he was right!). I drove out and met with Eric Huber and immediately hit it off with him- we are both VW guys. The car looked showroom condition (my wife said several times she can't believe its not new) but Huber's went over the car and performed all of the 40,000 mile services on it. The car is only at 36,000 miles! The point is, I think they could have just vacuumed it, washed it, put 2 tires on it and put it for sale, but Eric explained that most of his customers come there for follow up service and if I came back for the next oil change at 40,000 miles and he hit me with VW's recommended 40,000 mile service charge, I would undoubtedly be P.O'd since I just bought the car. And he's right. Eric showed me the list of all the work performed and gave me a copy for my records. Very impressed with that kind of thinking. Huber's is a full service car repair facility that also sells high quality used cars and they put good cars on the lot to keep their customers happy so they'll come back for service. Worked out well for me!
