Customer Reviews
I recently had my car worked on at Garber. They charged me 700 dollars to fix my heater and didn't fix it all the way . They charged me 50 dollars to change a turn signal bulb And when i picked the car up the turn signal they charged me for was not fixed Instead of apologizing . They girl in front lied to me. Saying my right turn signal was out and replaced. I turned right to get unto their parking lot it was working fine. I told her the car tells you when the blinker is out. All cars do . Since the 1970's. She acted like i couldn't of known it wasn't out . Yes since the 70s all turn signals When one goes out it blinks faster. Thus telling you its out . She double downed on her lie 3 times by the time her guy switched out the bulb. It took him 5 mins to fix On the bill they charged me 40
Brought my truck in to fix exhaust manifold. Got a price quote for $1500. Truck was not fixed, they said because they could not get to one of the bolts.. Put it back together and called me to pick up.. Explained to me they could not fix it but gave me a $2500. Quote to pull the motor and get to the bolt... I said no way, your quote said $1500... Was told that's the best they could do. Just a bad terrible experience with these guys. Truck sounded louder than when I brought it to them.. Very unhappy with results. Basically paid $1500. For nothing to get fixed.. Be aware .. Be scared.. Would not recommend them for exhaust work..
This place is wonderful. I received an estimate from them for a repair and the estimate was half the price of the estimate from the dealer. Then when I went to pick up my vehicle, the actual cost of $400 less than the quote. And my car is running perfectly. I have never left an auto mechanic’s place not feeling cheated prior to this experience. Also my niece has taken her vehicle here and has always been satisfied. This place is wonderful
I recently had Garber Automotive replace the engine in my 1970 Impala. I approached three other local shops for quotes. Two of them wouldn’t even give me an estimate, and the third gave me the “I really don’t want to do it price”. Micah and his staff are the absolute best I’ve ever worked with. They gave me an accurate quote quickly, scheduled the job, and was actually ready for the car when I brought it in. My car was completed on time and on budget. If you own a vintage car, you know how hard it is to find a reliable, honest mechanic. Garber Automotive has earned my trust and recommendation.
I have been an advocate of Garber for decades. Unfortunately, our recent experiences have not been good. Poor, condescending customer service attitudes, poor diagnostic of problems, and failure to correct service issues. I will never go back.
