Auto repair service near Woonsocket, RI

I bought an 03 Mazda tribute from Pilgrim motors back in February. The price on the car was high but I did manage to get them down a bit (not too much though). I thought there was nothing wrong with the car as I explained to Dana (owner) that I have 3 small children and I need something safe and reliable for my family. I was helped and assured that there is nothing wrong and if anything were to happen they will help me, even signing the as is warranty. I had the car for 5 maybe 6 weeks and the transmission stopped driving. I called several times before I finally talked to Dana. She had no sympathy and said "sorry but we are not doing anything we could not forsee any issues so we are not responsible". I called around and got prices *1800*. I called Dana and got the receptionist I was told to leave my name and number. No call back.I called a few more times and still nothing. I stopped by and they were on vacation. How sweet they get to take a vacation. So I left another message and still nothing. When you call they always say she is not in and the can take your number but she never returns your call. They are unavailable and are in no way capable of running a good business. They take your money for a lemon and go on a nice vacation with it. Stay away from this place. Now I am stuck with a car that has an 1800 dollar transmission bill three children a full time job and no transportation. As for Dana and her Husband at Pilgrim Motors you should be ashamed of yourselves. I understand a business is there to make money but to scam people is wrong. I recommend elsewhere.

Today I used their auto repair shop for service on my car. My stepdad typically does all my mechanical work on my car but, he has since moved to another state so I need to fen for myself. I called Nissan and was quoted $289 for an oil change, tire rotation, oil filter and general check up. I printed out the maintenance sheet for the milage on my car and gave it to the mechanic at Woodside, who had also called Nissan to verify the service requirements for my mileage. When I picked up my car and saw the invoice for $76 I was ecstatic. They fulfilled all the checkpoints on the maintenance sheet from Nissan for a third of the price. Amazing small business service and customer service. Keep the small businesses around and it works out for everyone.

theCARS Company, as mentioned by other reviewers, deserves 5 star ratings across all boards. Service is extremely quick (usually takes a couple hours for normal maintenance; few minutes for an oil change) and fairly priced. They have appointments open constantly and 'reservations' are easy to make. In terms of quality, I have been in there twice--once because my 'check engine' light lit up and the other for the 45,000 mile routine maintenance--and the results couldn't have been better. Problems are discovered quickly and solutions are provided even faster. What sets theCARS Company apart from any other car shop I've been to is their customer care. Point in case: recommending a cheap buff-and-polish job for the many bumps and scratches on my car as opposed to an extremely expensive paint job. Need another example? They offer discounts and coupons constantly. They don't hide them from you. In fact, make sure to politely ask if they have any available and they will respond honestly. Believe me, they've got your back and they're looking to protect your wallet. They seem genuinely interested in your best interest and not on making a quick buck. Very professional, well-organized, and reasonable prices: what else could you ask for?

I've been coming to Brian's Auto Body for about 2 years now. I'm on my second vehicle and he has been the only one to work on my vehicles. He tells you what needs to be done in a very professional manner and is very upfront about costs and labor. He doesn't sugarcoat damage or needed repairs. His staff are very friendly and inviting. Each visit you can guarantee a smile and a flower if you had any work done, whether its a simple oil change or replacing your front end. No matter what your car needs, I'd highly recommend having your repairs and inspections done through Brian. Stepahnie Boucher

Correction: The car is worth approx $2,500 less than book value... about $14000..we paid 20K. We have put 3,000 miles on it... and it has been in the shop twice already... our mechanic says we are doomed.

I have been taking my cars to John at QAT for many years. I have never been disappointed or surprised with the services offered. His prices are always fair and he treats you like a true valued customer. Give john a shot, customer comes first.

Been going here for years and always suspected he was up to no good..he is a liar and breaks your car so you have to go back..I sent a friend and he switched out my friends battery for a crappy one..Do NOT let this person near your car..just a thief and liar..last thing did with him was an oil change..never put in a new oil filter but lied that he had

This shop is a complete fraud. they are friendly when they receive your vehicle but try and rip you off for issues that dont exist. Please do not use this facility they are poor business men both al and scott

Horrible Service. Originally I told them my car is making a noise and I had just had my rotors and brakes done. It was clearly metal rubbing together. Simple thing to check but because I'm a women they attempted to take advantage of me. They tried to tell me my brakes were cheap until I said I got them from the dealership. They tried to tell me I need a part replaced that I don't. I waited for an hour and was never told what they were going to do or how much it was going to be. I only asked that he tell me what the noise was. After an hour and having the owner in the office with me and then slip away, without a word. The mechanic says it sounds better, I was told to charge you x amount of dollars. But they didn't do ANYTHING! I called the owner and all he could say was it's for what they did but couldn't say what they did. I refused to pay and surely as a drove away my car was just as loud as when I came in. Total waste of time. A bunch of snakes.
