Pop's Garage, Inc.

"First let me say that I didn’t want to react immediately after I left Joe’s shop . I wanted to wait a few days to reflect on what honestly occurred. The positive: Joe and his crew rebuilt the front end of my 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and properly aligned my tires . This was a big job and they did a terrific job for which I am grateful . To back up a bit , My car had stalled out heading to Joe’s shop for the scheduled appointment so I had it towed and Joe said he’d get it started first . He called and explained that they replaced the distributor cap and coil to get it started . Then he gave me the bad news about the front end needing a rebuild which didn’t surprise me . As mentioned above it was an A+ job well done! He also located a AC leak which I brought to his attention and that was fixed perfectly as well. When Joe called he explained all the work was done and that he test drove the car and it ran very well. Upon picking up the car Joe was very pleasant. We had a nice conversation and I told him I was glad to find a garage like his that serviced old cars. He also said everything is under warranty and to let him know if there are any problems. We parted on friendly terms. I proceeded to drive home and long story short the car was not driving very smoothly. It felt as if it was going to stall out at a stop light and then upon the light turning green and me giving it some gas there was a hesitation which also felt like the car would stall. I immediately turned around after getting some gas and calmly approach Joe about the problem and he was visibly upset. Stormed out of the shop with me and took a test drive. Joe angrily and disrespectfully drove the car at high rates of speed . He declared there’s nothing wrong with the car when in fact there was. We drove back to the shop and he explained “ if you want to leave it I’ll take a look at it tomorrow. I haven’t got time now “. I could tell he was pissed, and I even brought that to his attention in which he denied it. But I think after spending over $4000 and me being a new customer to boot that he could’ve been more caring about me stalling out on the way home and took a look at it no matter how busy he was. I wouldn’t have minded waiting for the car just for peace of mind driving the car home . I did make it home safely with one stall out at a stop light .It’s too bad that this ruined my experience at Pops garage and left me feeling unappreciated as a new customer."

"We discovered Pop's garage over a year ago and he has become our go to mechanic. I definitely echo what people are saying about the owner Joe. He is very honest, helpful and knowledgeable. You know when you bring your car to him, he is going to get the job done and at a fair price. I highly recommend Pop's Garage to anyone looking for a great mechanic!"

"THANK YOU JOE. New to town and needed an oil change for my mother-in-law. Yes, my mother-in-law. Joe said I could come right in. He is only a mile and a half away from our new home in Parkland. Joe personally greeted me in the lobby. Super friendly guy. In and out in about an hour. I was thoroughly impressed with his shops process. I saw new and old cars alike. I am really glad I ran into this guy. He will be our go to shop from here on out. RJ Feist and Family"

"After relocating from NYC to Florida, I was looking for a good, honest mechanic, as my mechanic from NYC was a family friend, and I dealt with him pretty much since I have been driving. I brought my car into Pop's for a problem and I could not be happier. He is always fair and honest and offers me the best price possible. I have never had any problems with my car after he works on them. Overall, a great mechanic. I would not go anywhere else!!"

"I got sick of the dealership BS and researched mechanics in the Coral Springs area. I found Pops Garage had great reviews and decided to give them a try. Best decision I ever made. Joe is both friendly and knowledgeable. His prices are reasonable and he only performs the service the car needs without trying to upsell. I definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to support a local small business who is both honest and friendly."
