Smog test service near Reading, PA

The folks at Extra Mile always do an excellent and thorough job of keeping my 10 year old Nissan running like new. And they always manage to perform maintenance/repairs quickly and efficiently on MY schedule.

At Maclane’s Automotive, we take a holistic approach to all of our customers’ vehicles and their diagnostic, service and auto repair needs. We assess each car thoroughly, find the root cause of any automotive issue, we do our research of the make/model/year of the car or truck if necessary, and always consider repairing before replacement (something that makes us different from taking your car to a dealership). We get to know our customers so we understand how they’re using their vehicle whether it is; driving just around town, long commutes, highway vs. city driving, etc. Our goal is to be proactive with the health of our customers’ vehicle’s in order to extend the life of the vehicle and prevent our customers from experiencing any large auto repairs or catastrophic vehicle failures. We pride ourselves on sharing our knowledge with our customers, providing detailed car specific information to our customers, documenting our repair and service procedures for our customers’ records, and setting a timeline for customers so that they can focus on the most pressing issues and monitor future potential issues. We strive to communicate costs to our customers up front to avoid any surprises. We are confident in our automotive diagnostic abilities, our top of the line vehicle scan tools, our mechanic/technician experience and expertise. Our mechanics are encouraged to pursue education, automotive training and certifications to ensure we are serving our customers effectively and efficiently. We enjoy the challenge of investigating and diagnosing tough vehicle issues and providing our customers with answers and appropriate repairs (not a guess and a band-aid). All in all, we care about our customers and their cars because we want to fix cars right the first time and be one of the best auto repair shops in the Greater Downingtown area.

I must say that the folks at Meiser's go above and beyond in the areas of customer service, and quality work. We came to The Reading/Topton area of Eastern Pennsylvania to visit family in the nursing home in Topton. We needed to get a family car inspected, but only had Friday to do this (we live in Ohio, and needed to return on Sunday). During the inspection, it was discovered that the car had a bad shock absorber. We were in a bind, as the area dealership could not get the car in on Friday afternoon to fix the issue. I called Meiser's to see if they could get the shocks in, and install them on the car. They called to make sure they could get the parts, and were able to get the car in to install them on Friday afternoon. One of the employees even loaned us a car so we could visit with family at the nursing home while our car was being worked on. This was MORE than over and above the call of duty, and gave us additional time with family that we would have missed out on but for her kindness. We would recommend Meiser's to anyone looking for quality auto work, and excellent customer service!
