MBH has been repairing my Mercedes GL/SLC/and CLK cars for years. Extremely satisfied with both the services and support from MBH. I have purchased two of my Mercedes from MBH and very happy with both the price and quality of the cars. Will continue to ask for services and support from MBH. Highly recommend MBH to others for services and sales.

I want to rave about such a wonderful business! I stopped on my way to work this AM for gasoline for my car. I dread pumping gas before work because I have spilled it on my pant leg in the past. Anyhow when I pulled into the station an attendant quickly rushed out and asked to pump my gas. While the gas pumped he cleaned my windows and even asked if I needed additional services. When I offered to tip the man he said no, all women deserve this kind of service! I will always get gas from them! I recommend everyone do the same!

THIS WAS THE FIRST AND LAST TIME I EVER GO TO KINGS GRANT EXXON. My electric cooling fan engaged when I first started my Jeep in the morning. This shouldn't happen. The fan should only engage when the coolant reaches about 200 degrees. The indicator light lit up on my dashboard. I took my Jeep up to the Exxon, I explained to them what happened and I would like a cost to fix it. I also told them it was probably just the sensor. A couple of hours later a mechanic called and said it would cost approx. $800.00 to fix my Jeep. I told him that was a outrageous price, don't fix it, I will pick up my Jeep in a little while. When I got there and asked for my key they said I had to pay $90.00 for a diagnostic charge. They never told me that it would cost $90.00 for a Diagnostic charge. So I paid the $90.00 in order to get my keys back from them. I went to Auto Zone and Auto Zone plugged their computer into my Jeep computer and said my cooling sensor was bad and needed to be replaced. Auto Zone didn't charge me for the diagnostic service. They told me the part will cost $15.00. I bought the part, went home and installed it. It took me 10 minutes to change out the sensor. My Jeep is running great and the indicator light is off.

BLEW UP my engine! Two separate ASE mechanics confirmed it was this shop’s mistake. Tom (owner) refused to file claim and won’t return calls. Calling JAG and red flagging this business. $5k cost now to replace.

Never had major work done there, but have had state inspections. Just had one today BTW: They failed my truck because the indicator lamp in the dashboard for the parking brake was intermittent. I don't believe I've ever even had an inspector check that before. Could have been that way for years and has nothing to do with safety. Then they wanted to charge me $60 for a $15 part and less than 5 minutes of work. Needless to say I changed it myself. Then they were VERY rude when I brought it back for reinspection and when I asked how long I was going to have to wait for them to take the 10 seconds it would require for them to verify that the dashboard lamp is now coming on, they lied to me and told me the inspector had just "gone to lunch" (at 1:45pm) and would be back in 45 minutes...when I could see that there was a truck in the bay being inspected right then. Don't trust them, they will try to rip you off and then will lie to you when you call them on it.

On February 5th I took a 2005 Subaru Outback Llbean to B automotive for a pre inspection. I was given an estimate of the repairs needed. At NO TIME did I mention or complain it had a rough idle. At NO TIME or in the report was it mentioned or NOTED that vehicle had a rough idle. Vehicle was brought to B Automotive driving smoothly. No rough idle in DRIVE, NEUTRAL, OR PARK. vehicle continued to drive smooth and quiet upon delivery to AUTO BRAKE for several repairs. On 2/19/2019 1....replace front sway bar links 2....replace oil cooler 3....owner brought 6 qts. Oil, Subaru air filter, Subaru oil filter 4....replace axel assembly Rob called on 2/19/2019 Vehicle stayed overnight because of the Axel assembly repair Rob informed me needed replacing and I asked it be kept inside per owner request. Gave the go ahead for Axel repair. Britney called 2/20/2019 to say vehicle was ready. I asked for total. I ask her to please place vehicle inside overnight. 2/21/2019 came to pick up vehicle at 8am Rob checked me out. He said, "That is a nice car, I drove it, it drives smooth, no noises, no rattling. Can I ask how much you paid for it"? I told him $4,500. He explained to me about the valve cover gasket and how it did not need to be done at this time. My vehicle was pulled out of the bay and was running when I got in. I drove away and got to the corner of Ave.J and Swells Pt. Rd. LESS THAN 1/2 block .....and notice it was vibrating and idling very rough in DRIVE when I stopped. I thought it was cold and continued to drive to the stop light at little creek rd. And noticed it was obviously NOT Idling as it was when I dropped the vehicle off to AUTO BRAKE on 2/19/2019 or from the first day I drove this vehicle. From the first day I went to test drive this vehicle it ran quietly and idled smoothly in drive without having to put in neutral. That's what sold me on it. It was quiet and smooth. I drove to Ocean View to completely allow it to warm up. It made no difference. The only way I Could get it to idle smoothly was to put the vehicle in NEUTRAL. THAT WAS NOT NECESSARY UNTIL I DROVE AWAY FROM AUTO BRAKE after repairs were done on 2/20/2019 I could not return that day because of a previous appointment. The following morning I had to care for my 87 year old mother. As soon as I finished with my mother I came straight to Auto Brake. TIME APPROXIMATELY 12:30 The bay door was open....I called out for Morgan. He was sitting on a stool at the computer. I ask him ( TO BE SURE I WAS TALKING TO THE CORRECT PERSON). Was he the one who worked on my vehicle? AND.... I ASKED NICELY!!!!!!!!!...Morgan said "Yes" I explained to Morgan that as soon as I drove away to the corner of the street ...less than 1/2 block I notice the rough idle. I ASKED Morgan could he please check the oil filter to see if maybe it's loose. Loose hose? But something was wrong. He became angry and said. "yeah, yeah I hear this everyday. It wasn't doing this and now something is wrong." I followed him to my vehicle. I notice Rob was across the parking lot talking with 2 people. Morgan opened the hood and AGGRESSIVELY grabbed the air filter housing and shook it. Morgan said, "See, it's tight there is nothing wrong with it". Morgan walked away and Rob walked up. He said "What's wrong"? I explained to him exactly what i explained to Morgan. Rob got in and said, "Yes, I see what you are talking about." I told Rob I did not appreciate Morgan AGGRESSIVELY YANKING on the oil filter housing. Rob grabbed it and said. "All he did was pull on it like this." And Rob pulled on it. But not like Morgan did. Rob said. "I saw what Morgan did." No, Rob could not have seen what Morgan did because he was across the parking lot talking to 2 people. He came over AFTER Morgan AGGRESSIVELY yanked on oil filter housing. I told Rob....."I did not accuse Morgan of doing anything wrong. I simply told him exactly what was going on and asked him would he please look at it. I reaffirmed IT WAS NOT LIKE THIS WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO YOU! I said,,,"Rob, I just spent $500 DON'T I have the right to ask you to recheck it"? Rob said, "When you are unhappy with your hamburger do you go around the counter and complain to the cook"? "You should have come to me. I told Rob I did Not know I was not allowed to speak to Morgan. I told Rob I did not appreciate the way Morgan treated my vehicle when he yanked on the oil filter. I apologized to Rob that he and Morgan had become so angry and defensive, but I just spent $470.00 plus $25 in cookies made. I felt I had every right to come back and see if maybe something was loose from the work. Rob told me to bring it back on Monday. I returned home and called Rob to AGAIN apologize that I had upset he and Morgan . I told Rob my professional relationship with them was important to me. I called to speak to Morgan and also wanted to tell him I was not accusing him of anything.....I SIMPLY ASKED HIM TO CHECK MY VEHICLE. THE bottom line is this: My 2005 Subaru Outback was brought to AUTO BRAKE running smoothly, quietly, and properly. Idling smoothly in DRIVE..... Not having to shove it up in NEUTRAL!!!!! There were no idle issues when I purchased the vehicle There were no idle issues reported or NOTED when Brian at B Automotive Did a pre sale inspection. COULD something have happened from the time I drove out of the parking lot at Auto Brake to the end of Ave J and Swells pt. rd....... Less than a 30 second drive......NOT LIKELY. It's less than a 1/2 block and a 30 second drive They refused to fix it and refused to refund any money for someone' to fix it. Stay away... Morgan and Rob are not mechanics ...they Can change wiper blades is all. STATE POLICE SHUT THEM DOWN FRAUDULENT INSPECTIONS PUT USED PARTS ON CAR . TOLD OWNER THEY WERE NEW RUN RUN RUN FROME THESE PEOPLE. THE OWNER CRAIG CASPER LAUGHED AT ME WHEN I TRIED TO TALK TO HIM THEY RIP MANY WOMEN OFF. Charged my aunt $45 to put on wipers

While my car was in his shop he drove it thru the Portsmouth tunnel, he said to match the headlight. I got the bills because it is my car, he admitted it was him that made the charge. I sent him every bill I got, now its been sent to a collection agency. I cannot renew my license plates that expire the end of this month until its paid. For awhile he gave me excuses, then it was flat out lies. Now he is ghosting me. He owns his shop, I live on social security month to month. He was my trusted mechanic for 16 years. He used to say I wasn't just a customer I was a friend, with friends like that I don't need enemies. I would have given him 0 stars but not an option.
