Independence Automotive

"Really not sure why a few people decided to give this auto repair shop bad reviews. This is one of the best shops to get your ride fixed in all of South Jersey. In fact, I was there because of an issue with my engine that another auto repair shop claimed that they fixed. Independent Automotive actually did a proper diagnostic and fixed the problem. The owner of this place learned how to be a mechanic while in the U.S. Army."

"Great owner and shop. He has taken care of 4 of my family's cars over the past year or so. He addresses all of our concerns, gives a clear explanation and estimate for the work he's going to perform, and ensures consent before doing the actual work. He has a proven track record of investigating any underlying issues and getting to the root cause instead of just putting a band-aid on it. It looks like his business has been sabotaged by an ex-employee who asked his friends to put up a bunch of fake reviews about 9 months to a year ago. Ignore those fake reviews and trust those of us who actually took our cars here and had them repaired or tuned up."

"Great place, great people, great work and fair prices. My family are mechanics and I was very concerned when I left my home state and needed to find a new repair shop. Pete is very personable, knowledgeable, and fair. He walked me through my Jeeps issues, what needs to be fixed now and can wait, and different payment approaches to extend my dollar. As long as I’m living in New Jersey, Independence Automotive will be my go to repair shop."

"Went in for a quote on fixing my trunk that would no longer open. The dealer had checked it, but left it broken without telling me. Pete was able to diagnose, obtain the necessary part and fix the trunk all in one day and was very helpful with working out payment on the unexpected expense of fixing it right away. Very professional and since I had to wait with my car, checked to make sure I was ok and up to date on the progress of the work throughout the process"

"I have to make this short and simple. The owner just came off rude when asking questions about his services and what he has to offer that differs from other mechanics in the area. His approach about his knowledge for cars didn't make me feel comfortable to want to try his shop out."
