I'm giving them one star because they at least got my car on a lift and let me into the shop to look at it the same hour I brought it in as a walk-in. But, no higher of a rating because even though I brought the correct part for them to put on they tried to convince me they couldn't do the job. Like come on man, that all you guys do is do repairs for people. I know cars and how they are fixed. I'm guessing they are just use to overcharging for work.

I went in for an inspection and they replaced my headlights without calling and asking me first, and charged me for it. I expected to only pay for the inspection but they charged me for bulbs and labor also. I had replacement bulbs in my glove compartment and I planned on doing it myself. I don’t appreciate them not asking before upcharging me

Old school local mechanic. Honest people with fair prices. I'd would call this the best mechanic in Ithaca. Great tire prices too.
