Had the brakes done on my jeep which has an electronic parking brake. The price was EXTREMELY better than the dealer and another shop I called for a quote said they couldn’t do it because of the e-brake. My car was in and out in the time frame they gave me. Matt is great. I will definitely be using his shop again and recommending to others.
The person who answered the phone and then greeted me at the shop was Shannon. She was fantastic! She was very pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. She made the experience very welcoming. I really appreciate her customer service. It’s the most important thing! Thank you!
Matt was amazing! Very helpful! I called Tuesday, he had my car in by Wednesday afternoon, ready to pick up Thursday morning running better than ever! Anyone looking for car help should see him!!! Thank you for everything! The staff is great!!!
I went and got an oil change I was in and out in 15 mins! I had a hose hanging out I ask them to take a look and they fix it with no problems!! Great place!
Had the oil changed on my jeep renegade here after being told at another chain company that they don’t carry the type of filter needed. They had my car in and out quickly-I think I waited less than 30 mins. Price was better than the quote from the other place as well. Mike is great-friendly, explained everything they were doing. Definitely will schedule here again
This shop is great the service is always top notch and the whole team are friendly, courteous and happy to help. Best shop in town in my opinion
They made sure i got to see exactly what i was paying for and why. They work with you as well when your on a budget. I appreciate the professionalism
One of the best experiences I have ever had with a car shop and especially with Matt, the manager. They took the time to discuss everything that my car needed and always had my budget in mind. Matt provided continual updates and was always happy to answer any questions. I would recommend this shop to anyone.
Quick, professional service. Did NOT try to sell me unnecessary parts. Gave me the heads up that the brakes were getting low and will have to keep an eye and likely replace next time which I certainly appreciated. Overall a great experience and much better then the Mazda dealership I have been using that forgot to close the air cleaner housing last time I used the dealership.
Good service. Excellent value. Would highly recommend
Ive been going to this location for nearly four years and have always had good service on two different vehicles. As someone who was new to the area at the time, I needed a new place to bring my car to get work done and have been happy and satisfied since finding this Meineke.
This place was awesome! The service was prompt and on point and friendly. Truly knowledgeable, Answered all my questions and didnt beat around the bush or try to sell me on stuff that wasnt needed. The Job was done very quick and was in and out. I couldnt be happier how fast I was on my way. I had a 1.5 inch hole in my exhaust and in a difficult spot to fix. The weld looks solid and its not going anywhere. The is alot quieter now and Im confident it will hold a long time in our new England climate. Definitely one of those hole in the wall spots big company with small business feel!
Nice staff and convenient location. Went in for a oil change and was in and out in about 30 min!
Fast service, great price and awesome customer service!
They did a great job on the brakes and in a timely manner thanks again
Went there because my engine was making a loud noise, said it was my rotors grinding, charged me 1200$ to get all my brakes done. As soon as i drove it I went back because it was making the same noise. He told me it was my “transmission sorry” and sent me on my way. Never ever ever again
The new store manager Matt is awesome had me in and out in 20 minutes.
Got my brakes done a week ago at a different Meineke. Something was wrong and this Meineke took care of it no waiting no questions asked all I did was show them the receipt very professional very friendly and helpful
I brought my car here for a noise that it began making. i went in thinking theyd fully evaluate my car and actually try and listen for the sound I described and told him about. They told me i needed a wheeling barring, new roters, breaks, etc., and he told me that was the reason why my car was making that sound and that i needed to fix that so i agreed cause as a person who doesnt know much about cars and who has an infant and full time job i just needed to get my car fixed. I left my car there that afternoon and i was even promised to get it back by the afternoon the next day and when they didnt i called and asked for an update and when i did they had a complete different person working who wasnt even informed of anything or issues going on with my vehicle but they didnt have it done until 4 and then when i got the car it still was making that sound so i called them and they told me i had to bring my car in again to get it checked out for the same noise i brought it in for and when they did check it they told me it was my transmission so i eneded up having to pay 1200 when they only told me itd be 1000 and paid for something i didnt need. Very unhappy and they didnt even offer to provide and other kind of help when they mis diagnosed my car
Make an appointment and they are always on time. Very professional and friendly. They go above and beyond
Amazing service will be back again
Matt, the new manager of this location, has been a great addition to their team! He was friendly, informative and made sure he took the time to explain everything to me, which is rare to find as a female going into a shop. I was never intimidated or uncomfortable which was a pleasing difference from my previous experiences at different shops. I will absolutely be going to this Meineke from now on.
They are do good to me but never called me when car was ready
Been going there for years for oil changes on my cars. New management wanted to charge me 4 times more than I always pay! More than the dealer! A bunch or con artists! Avoid this place!
Best experience ever.. would recommend this place. Excellent service!!!!!
Have gone to this Meineke for a while now, have always had a very good experience, treated with respect, good guys, good work, thanks
Great job done on my Ram pick up truck exhaust.Sounds awesome, great job doneGreat place to get work done on your vehicle
Had a 9:30am appointment for oil change. Did not get car back till 1:30pm. They stripped the oil plug and want me to pay for it. Will change my own oil in the future.
Fantastic service!
This place just gained a new LOYAL customer! VERY professional and does GREAT work! My car now sounds like it did when I first bought it!! They literally do it ALL! Highly recommended!
After a difficult experience with another outlet, Meineke Car Center in Ansonia, CT really came to the rescue. With integrity and persistence they were able to resolve the issues created by a different shop and get my AC back up and running. Chas, who managed the process, was extremely professional, kind and patient. He kept me informed along the way and I sincerely appreciate his professionalism. I highly recommend this car center.
Great shop. Matt is always helpful and willing to work with you. Honest, quick, and reliable.
I hate leaving reviews but they sent this to me. So I made an appointment online, when I get their the guy at the front isn’t wearing a mask, nor is he when I came back to get my car, but he informs me that the online portal has been double booking them and that it is gonna take a while to do my car, no big deal. I got a ride home. It ends up taking 5.5 hours for an oil change. And when I got my car back it smelled like smoke. I’m giving them three stars cause I recognize the wait time is not their fault if the system is over booking them
I was very happy with the repair to my muffler in the tailpipe that it needed they gave in a good price and kept to it
Very good service and very friendly
Great service friendly and proffessional! Will be back again for my other vehicles as well. Thank you1
I had such a great experience w Bobby! He really took care of me, got done the work I asked for, plus took initiative to diagnose other issues I wasn’t aware of. More importantly, he took the time to explain to me why said issues needed to be addressed. Super professional and informative. In and out in a few hours, plus did a test drive to make sure my car was in good shape. Will definitely be back!
Great service! Thanks Mat for taking care of my truck!!Lizbeth V- Derby CT
Brought my 2004 audi a6 in today for a simple issue. They took care of it right away, no charge. They have worked on my car before and offer competitive pricing. No complaints here. 5 stars.
Very kind pleasant they always fit me in
They did a great job with the car(2013 Subaru) and the price was good. Didn’t get 5 stars because communication could have been better.
Matt was efficient, professional, and always know how to do a fine job. Shannon and Mike were very cordial and made the time go by so quickly. The staff is excellent here! Definitely will be back! Matt even remembered me from my last visit! Now that’s good customer relations!!!!
I came here twice to get exhaust work done. Both times they did a great job for an affordable price. they will do custom exhausts for you which is what i really like about this place!
Matt was great - very professional, friendly, clear communication, honest advice. Highly recommend.
They were very fast to get me in and out
Service was professional and efficient.
My place to get oil changes from. So far so decent.Only gripe is how long they took to perform oil change. Always takes around 1-1.5hrs and thats way too long sorry. At the most 20-30mins....but apart from that staff seems friendly and helpful
I had a scheduled appointment for an oil change and i needed it to be done in an hour or less because i had to get to work. They were busy but were able to get it done in half an hour! Friendly service and have never had an issue
Always the best service, very knowledgeable,
Excellent service now that bob is gone..
Everything was fine and on time.
I recently purchased a new car and have been slowly adding modifications to it. One of the modifications I wanted was to have the calipers painted red. I searched high and low for a place that could do this for me and finally came across Meineke. Specifically, Chas was the one who performed the work and saying that he went above and beyond would be an understatement. He performed a professional-level job and made the calipers look even better than I was expecting. Additionally, he came in on his day off to give me my keys since I was out of state during the work and he even hosed off my car for me! All of this was done for an incredibly affordable price, to boot. 10/10 job, would definitely recommend everyone to have him work on their car.
Great people, always professional and get me in and out!
They were really nice people very very helpful they showed me how to check my oil and how many times I should check it
I went in recently for an oil change and the manager Chas was very helpful and informative. I was also informed that my battery needed to be replaced because it was at end of life. Thank you for saving me from a dead battery situation as the colder weather is approaching. I will return to this location !
I was from out of town and had a flat tire. AAA temporarily filled the tire so I could get to the shop. Meineke Shop waited for me to arrive. Diagnosed the problem, explained how it needed to be fixed, filled all my tires and assured me I’d get home to Massachusetts safely. He wouldn’t take any $$ for his time and energy. I arrived home safely and the tire pressure held.
Good, honest people working here. Great value. Very quick and efficient.
Matthew was very professional and did great service.
Great service, friendly staff, exceptional results in a timely manner; its the only place I trust to service my car. I would recommend this particular shop to anyone.
Good service and they didn’t try to sell me things I didn’t need.
The total knowledge and recommendations for necessary repairs were greatly appreciated. The work they did was excellent.
Always have a good experience with these guys. Honest and quick and usually pretty easy to get an appointment. Would definitely recommend, been coming here for the past two years since I moved to Orange
I brought my car into Meineke Car Care Center in Ansonia for a last minute oil change. The staff were able to accommodate me with quick and excellent service. They were helpful and the prices are reasonable. I would highly recommend this business to others!
I had a busy morning after working all night and looked online to see if there was a quick oil change in store for me.I didnt want to wait until the next posted time so I called and Chad was able to get me in nearly 2 hours earlier & with a deal I could not resist for better quality oil and fill up on all of my low fluids.He runs an excellent crew who were able to inform me of some problem areas I wasnt fully aware of.I had a problem, of my own doing, with the transmission dipstick and Chad told me to come down and he would take a look. He did more than that by quickly solving my silly problem and being a great person about it.My wife had rave reviews on her last few trips so I was glad to have a good experience for myself after being run through the mill at a few other local auto groups that had actually made multiple issues arise after my visits.Im looking to relocate to another town closer to work but this is my go to location for my auto fixes! Thanks guys!
Bob Williams, the manager, could not have been anymore helpful. He explained everything, was pleasant to deal with and the wait times for an oil change was reasonable. I will be back next time I need service for my car
I have been screwed over by a few other oil change/tire type auto care facilities lately so I decided to try somewhere different to hopefully get a more positive experience ( yes this is the first time I am reviewing a Car Care Center) . I had an oil change here this week and the customer service experience far exceeded all other places I have been at. Another customer told me the managers have turned over here a lot recently so they are clearly making an effort to improve and I think they are on the right track now.They did a complete professional safety inspection in addition to the oil change and rotation, and as a technology guy I was impressed with the fact that they email/text you the report complete with pictures of everything. This is great so that you dont get the feeling they are ripping you off by selling you un-necessary services.The only negative I would report is that I noticed a few minutes after I left that they hadnt returned my wheel lock key, so I had to drop by to get it back - No worries.You should consider giving this place a shot for you next car care services.
Friendly service both times Ive gone. Plus theyre always super quick.
I live here and its a good city
Unique Quality Car Care...Great service skilled techs...Very trust worthy...This is a place I will recommend anyone to get their car serviced at....
These guys know their cars and help you prioritize major and minor repairs youll need
Wanted to put an exhaust on my Grand Cherokee. I purchased the x pipe, resonators, and the tips myself. Brought it by to get a quote and I was told I could just drop it off Friday morning and they’d get it done. I asked about an idea on price and I was told “I’m not sure but I’ll take good care of you, I’ve done tons of these.” So, I dropped it off this morning and I got a phone call later saying $919 and 4 hours of shop time... I know 2 friends who’ve had the exact same thing I’m having done who paid $150 and $180 and both waited for it to be done and took about an hour. And now after making a phone call I was quoted $160 somewhere else. I can’t say anything about their work, but their pricing was outrageous and their exaggeration on the job tasked is ridiculous. I could have purchased a full exhaust and bolted it on myself for the price they quoted me.
Employees were very nice and made me aware of a few repairs to consider soon. Only downside is it took over 1.5 hours for a scheduled oil change when it usually has only taken 30-45 min in the past.
I called because my clutch has been acting up for the past 2 weeks. The manager Joe not only looked at my car but quickly ordered the parts and serviced my vehicle within a few hours. I love Meineke Ive always had good service and they always come through in a pinch.
Great guys that always take care of what needs to be done with out high pressure sales tactics.
Every time I go there I have a coupon its a good price they always fit me in. Never had a problem there so far staff is friendly.
Wow! went here yesterday after hearing some grinding in my brakes. Bobby took my wheels off and showed me what was wrong, and it turned out the place i had gone to get a tire and axle changed didn’t put the caliper back on correctly. he and a tech stayed almost an hour late to get my car fixed, including going and getting parts from around half an hour away. 10/10 definitely recommend!! i would have been so screwed had they not truly gone above and beyond for me with this, since it’s memorial day weekend and otherwise my car would have been out of commission until Tuesday at least (did i mention i was 200 miles away from home when this all happened?) all my thanks to these folks!
Your technician that worked on my vehicle yesterday was by far the best technician that is ever touched one of my vehicles and I greatly appreciate him...👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Excellent experience, Chaz went above and beyond to help me. Definitely will be coming again and definitely recommend this place to a friend!
My ac has been giving me issues so I called up in the morning and they were able to have me come in that day (most other places I talked to would have me wait a few weeks). They recharged it with and found a leak in the condenser. I let them know I was going to see if the place I bought the car from would do something for me since it hasnt even been a year that Ive owned it. They drained the refrigerant and didnt charge me anything even though they had it for almost an hour. I will be going to them for everything going forward!
I have used this location several times for 2 vehicles. The service has been great and timely. Very convenient location
So i just stopped in for an oil change and was treated with awesome customer service during the interaction i mentioned i was having an issue with the valve stem on one of the tires on my car not only was he more than willing to take a look at it but offered to fix it at a fraction of the cost of other shops in the area i will absolutely be returning to this location again for any maintenance needs i highly recommend anyone in the area to use meineke
Theyre always courteous professional clean very nice and get the job done with very little waiting time
I am so impressed with the integrity of everyone at Meineke of Ansonia CT. They are extremely professional, extremely helpful and they all care about the customers they meet, I am very happy to deal with them and they are very friendly, I don’t usually give reviews but I do now because I think that when something is right it should celebrated and people should know about service centers like this one!Thanks very much for treating me like you would like to be treated.......
Immediate service and, excellent technicians ... I travel from far just to go to them.
Came in to check on my breaks. The staff here was friendly, and worked with me to get my car safe to drive again. All of this while handling a dozen other walk ins. Highly recommend this place if you need anything done to your car!
This store has seen a ton of MGRs over the last year or so and found themselves a great one in Lou Sharretto. Lou is honest and upfront with his clients and hopefully will give this location the stability it needs to be successful. Kudos to Lou and Team
My first experience here was top notch. Kristen was a delight to talk to in the waiting room and when I had unknown (to me) issues with my car they came and showed me the physical issue as opposed to simply trying to explain what’s wrong. I felt pricing points were fair as well as the time it took to get my things ready!
Outstanding service very knowledgeable people
(Note: This is a direct copy of my review from Yelp. The company doesnt deserve a new take. See below to find out why.)Shady as all Hell, to be blunt.Brought in my mothers car for a pulsation in the brakes. After charging her what may as well have been dealer prices ($520+) for just the front two brake rotors/pads, the problem persisted. When brought back in to be assessed, it was now suddenly the ABS pump that was at fault, a $1700+ job, according to them (Dealer est. $1100 btw, in case you were curious).As there were no warning lights on the dash to indicate an ABS system fault, we got a second opinion and, lo and behold, not only was the pump not the problem, but the new rotors they charged her for were just resurfaced ones they asked full replacement price for. They still had rust on the unmodified parts of them!When asked about this over the phone, an employee said that it was our fault (!) the rust was there on the new pads because of the weather and how my mother doesnt drive the car enough! Fun Fact: She drives it almost every day AND it is kept in a place that rain has a tough time getting to.Quick Version For You:This is a business that blatantly lies and overcharges for everything. Stay. Away.
Excellent experience quick service job done right one of the techs Chaz went above and beyond to help me with a few minor issues on my exterior paintHighly recommend will be getting all of my oil changes done here very convenient five stars
Called this afternoon and they managed to fit me in for a service same day. Quick turnaround and honest service. Didn’t feel like I was being taken advantage of.
They understood that I was on a tight budget and helped me find a cheaper replacement starter. When they found something else wrong after giving me an estimate, they didn’t charge me for the additional fixes.
Very professional fast and excellent customer service
Under NEW management. I used to avoid this company because of this location, but This place has turned around completely. The district manager LOU and the technicians are definitely honest and helpful, also extremely friendly. When there are problems currently or soon to arise, they show you hands on. I Will most certainly continue to come here now for all 3 of my family vehicle needs.
In and out as promised, great price, great employees.
The people here are always willing to help and give the best recommendations. They also keep their word and are fast, best auto body in town!
Excellent customer service, called for new tires and less than 30 min later my car was on the lift getting them.
Nice experience. Took my car right in, gave me a fair price right from the start and got it done with no hassle. Ill definitely return. Thanks
I’ve always had a good experience when I come to this Meineke. The guys are always pleasant and the service is quick. This is my 3rd time here for both oil and brakes and will be a repeat customer.
