Great Bear Auto Center 469 East Jericho Turnpike, Huntington Station, NY 11746

"Don’t trust these crooks. Had a car with brake problems and dropped it off at their store and was waiting to hear the status of estimate of the repairs and how much. They didn’t contact me at the number I gave them and had to call them multiple times. They had given an estimate of over $900 just to fix the back brakes which seemed excessive. When I declined to have the brakes fix their and rather find a different store they tried to lower the price to $700 when i went to retrieve my car. The alternate place I went to had it done for $500 and were very good and professional. Me and my family had been going to this place for years and have grown frustrated with how they seem to charge exorbitant amounts while having an attitude about us bringing in our vehicles. Avoid this place there are better alternatives!"

"What an utter joke of a business. When I asked them in person about how much the oil change it would be, they evaded my question and said that they'd have to check the car how much it'd take to do a synthetic oil change for 2021 MDX... Really? I just decided to wait for them to finish the oil change, and they charged me $96 for synthetic oil change. I asked them how this is the finalized price, and they told me that they had to completely change the oil and made up bunch of excuses why it had to be changed. There are plenty of other synthetic oil changes that charges $60-70 even with current inflation economic crisis. $96 is just another way to earn themselves extra money. It should really be called Con-Artist Auto Center if anything. I will never return to this place again."

"People didn't seem so friendly. That's ok it's Long island. Typical New York. But they got the job done efficiently. Professionally. Price was reasonable. And most importantly, they pointed out I had bent rims that no other place ever mentioned. That's with 3 trips to Tesla, 2 trips to Mavis. I know those rims were bent because of 4 massive potholes I hit on Northern state parkway that blew out my low profile tires. Hence my previous trips to Tesla and Mavis. This is what I like about small businesses. an owner/operator that knows his stuff and runs a good shop. Chain stores too often hire under qualified people and it's gotten worse with this tight job market."

"Family run business that provides knowledgeable and excellent service. Recently, Rich and Rich Jr. ran diagnostics on my car and spent time explaining what was causing the difficulty. They completely resolved the issue. I have been going to Great Bear for years as this is the only place I trust with the mechanics of my car. Their service has been reliable every time. I recommend them to everyone. Especially during these crazy times it’s nice to know you are in the presence of honest, good hearted people that care about the safety of your vehicle. #supportlocalbusinesses"

"This was my first experience with Great Bear and I really enjoyed it. They are super professional and honest. They did not try to push any unnecessary service or component, quite the contrary, I was told my rear braking pads were a little worn out, but could safely be used for one more month. Besides that the service was extremely fast, well done, and they have one of the best prices around. I am really pleased by this first experience. Richie and Dave definitely got themselves a returning customer."
