German Auto Care, Inc.

"Best repair shop ever! Both John and George really know cars and are top notch auto clinician's. Honest, affordable & very clean shop. Don’t hesitate!"

"The best mechanics for German vehicles hands down. Very swift, no time wasted! started working on my vehicle as soon as I brought it in, (call in advance for best times to come in) Shoutout to George for being transparent with everything A++ will forever be a loyal customer"

"My daughter's car overheated on her way back from her work in Manhattan. Brought the car to German auto care. Having twice used them and the proximity of the breakdown. George the owner kept the car for 3 days of diagnostics and determined that it needed a water pump. At completion we paid him $1000 cash, and took the car back. A day later I received a call from my daughter notifying me that the car was again overheating. We nursed the car back to George and 2 more days of diagnostics replaced 2 modules and told us that the car was ready and assured us that the problem is solved. We retrieved the car and hoped that this was finally over. The following day the car overheated on her way into work once again. We decided to end this ground hog day and. The following day was spent retrieving the car by the side of the LIE and had it towed to a shop on L.I. where they determined that the radiator cap a $5 dollar item was faulty. They charged me $125 for diagnostic, parts and labor. I let some time pass before I notified George and told him of the successful repair by others and asked him to consider refunding at least the cost of the parts that were replaced when not necessary and we received a nasty "NO", without any explanation His incompetency should be very apparent. I never argued the price and paid him when asked. And we’re talking about a Toyota Avalon not a fancy German import. Think twice before you make a decision to use George. And don’t be so quick to part with your $. Good luck"

"Great shop. John, George and their crew are polite, welcoming, clear, good and honest mechanics. Brought my European car to them because I needed to change timing belt, serpentine belt, and front links. European cars are their specialty, so, contrary to other shops (and to the very expensive, cold, and suspicious dealerships), they knew exactly how to approach the job from the beginning. They worked on my car quickly and precisely. John gave me a quote for the full job during our first chat, and him and George honored it throughout the process, even after I asked them to check out a couple extra things. And, to be clear, the quote included parts and labors, and it was absolutely reasonable. I couldn't be happier right now: my car feels basically new (even if it isn't!) and I have found a trustworthy mechanic to go to -- honest and reliable. I will certainly go back to them for my future car needs."

"I came across George and John about 3 years ago when I started a slow “rolling restore” on my two older Mercedes, a 190E from 1991 and a 300TE from 1992. Among other things we did an engine replacement, suspension overhaul, several rounds of maintenance and more. George and John are expert mechanics who are quick and sure in diagnostics (obviously on older cars without any computer analytics) they can tell what’s wrong by hearing the engine and they always have the solution. They’re great in emergencies, of which I had a fair share, (complete breakdown of the brake system among other things) and are fast in helping you get back on the road. They’re responsible and meticulous and practical, keeping costs down and pricing their services very fair. By far my best experience in repair and maintenance service in over 45 years on the road. Great shop!"
