Technicians are always professional and caring when our car is serviced. They never run up the bill with parts that are not needed. They are always very up front and personable. Thank you!
Totten Pond Automotive is honest and has a quick turnaround. I work in the area, when I need anything done, I drop off the car and then head back in the afternoon. It is always done when I come pick it up. John has a top notch business. I would recommend him to everyone! The best in Waltham!
We have had a variety of work done on our car here. Always efficient and professional. Pricing has been reasonable. No issues and would recommend this auto shop.
Helped me out on short notice, at a fair price and most professional
Super convenient for maintenance and inspection. Small waiting room but its fine
The mechanics at Totten Pond Automotive are excellent. Everything was done at the price and in the timeframe we discussed. I also like the fact that I can speak with the person working on the car, as opposed to some repair shops that have a service associate as an intermediary.
Ive gotten a few services done at Totten Pond Auto (Oil Changes, checking on engine noises, etc), and I will definitely be going back!John and the team are extremely patient, professional and efficient. I never felt like they were selling me anything I didnt need, and they have great prices. Also, they are quick to respond and happy to answer any questions.I highly recommend Totten Pond Auto!
Right off the highway and super convenient. Youll pay a little bit more because of his proximity to the major artery. But its right there and they have just about everything you need phone chargers snacks drinks and an ATM.
Toten pond automotive is. Very clean and friendly. When Im in the area I will always go back
Always quality service at Totten Pond Shell. We drive out bbn of our way to have the cars serviced here as we know it will be done right first time.
Friendly & helpful staff. Inside the store & in the repair shop
Great garage, very straightforward, no scams. Eddie is great!
These guys are the best! Honest and up front, you couldnt ask for a better group!
Nothing help, left with a nail in tire. Terrible
Nice and efficient service.
A very good place to get your car serviced get fuel and some snacks for a road trip pleasant staff clean environment inside the store safety protocols followed good deal.
Seasoned pros, at it a long time, experienced, know their stuff, really nice & personable. I moved further away, and still go back because of 20+ years of flawless service, and attention to detail. I’m in the service business, and my service vehicle needs to be ready to go every day. But when it isn’t, it’s not in there for very long, and I’ve never had to go back for tweaking. Great shop, convenient, with a customer shuttle for maintaining schedules. Can’t really find any better!
These repair guys have been getting it right and for a reasonable price for years. I go there without hesitation. Now, they are not a bargain. They do good work at well below dealer prices. And they stand behind their work.
Totten Pond Automotive has consistently been my go-to mechanic and auto-shop since 2014. With impeccable service and timing, Ive always felt that their service and estimates have always been fair. While other shops could be thought to have unscrupulous practices, I have always had faith in their integrity. Ive brought my car to them for a wide spectrum of services, ranging from oil changes to power steering fixes, and have never picked up my vehicle disappointed. If you work in the area, they also offer to drive you to your offices if you need to drop off your vehicle in the morning. While consistency can often be a concern for service-based businesses, Ive never had an issue here in over 5 years!
Highly recommended. Have consistenly received excellent same-day service. Ed is extremely knowledable and professional. They even shuttle you to your office or home (pre-Covid).
Definitely better places to go. Went there once for a repair. Told me I needed to replace the exhaust and muffler, about $1800. Went somewhere else who said I could skip the muffler, knocking a third off the price. Also, they tell you that they can give you a ride to work in the area, but they conveniently dont tell you they wont give you a ride back.Later went for an inspection there and that seemed to go ok.
Extremely nice and professional. Was busy but still got me in and changed my battery instantly for a good price! Thank you!
Just picked up my 2002 Saab after the 120,000 mile service. Eddie and team are awesome to work with. He called me to update me on status and got all the work done on time. I’m a happy customer! Also got the oil changed. He also installed a battery I bought for free. I found my service place for life!!! Thank you
Totten Pond is always reliable. They don’t find things to fix just to charge you more like some shops. They work on what needs work, and they’ll let you know if they have any other concerns. Another nice thing is that they’re always offering discounts! Thank you for your professionalism!
Great service here. Ive had a few minor repairs done to my vehicle and had the oil changed. They are always busy but if you make an appointment, they get you in. Nice that they have a shuttle to get you to work or back home when you drop off vehicle. Pricing is competitive and they mail out coupons occasionally.
John was so helpful and saved me today when I found a flat tire!! He was able to take me immediately and after about 5 minutes I was on my way. This location is SO easy to get to and so central to the hotels and office buildings in this area. I was able to take Winter street and come around the back where there isn’t so much traffic. There is plenty of parking, and service is great. I can’t wait to recommend them to my coworkers.
I had a great experience here. Brought my car here for the first time with a couple issues, and they took it the next day. They even stayed a bit late to get the work complete in one day, which was really helpful.
I went to get a routine oil change at Totten Pond a few months back and while they were inspecting my car they had noticed that my rotor was rusting. They told me about the issue when I went to pick up my car and was never pushy about selling me the service like most auto shops. I went back last week to have it fixed and they gave me a free shuttle lift to work, which was very convenient. When I first drove my car after picking it up, it felt just like a new car. Im very lucky to have such a reliable auto shop nearby my office that is both cost-efficient and high-quality. Definitely give this place a try!
I have done some maintenance work(fluid changes) with them. They are very professional guys, did great service and offer reasonable price, less expensive than the dealer I have worked with before. I am happy with them so far.btw, they also provide free shuttle service if you want to drop off your cars.
Totten Pond Automotive understands what it means to deliver a great customer experience. They have great mechanics so the quality of the work is fantastic. The customer experience goes well beyond car care. They cater to the working driver with rides to the office and flexible hours for dropping off and picking up the car. In addition, I have received timely communications and follow up outreach to learn how they could provide a better experience. I am very satisfied.
I am very happy with the service provided me at Totten Pond Automotive.I dropped my car off in the morning to get my brakes done, and was give a ride to work in there cutesy vehicle. My car was ready for when I left work, and they did a phenomenal job replacing by back brakes. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for great and affordable service.
Excellent service and workmanship! We highly recommend Totten Pond Automotive.
We came into town at the last minute, and along the way our exhaust corroded through -- dangerous and loud. I brought the car in at 7 am, when the shop opened. Eddie was friendly and sympathetic, and said hed do what he could to help. Well, he did! Just a few hours later, we had a new exhaust using OEM parts, and, rather than take advantage of our situation, he only charged a very fair amount for labor -- much less than we expected! We were on our way quickly and safely.On top of that, the owner followed up with a text the next day to make sure everything went well. That kind of concern for customers is rare. Thanks to everyone at Totten Pond!
I have been going here for years and they have always been honest, professional, and fair. They have never “gouged” me and I find their courtesy shuttle to be very convenient.It’s hard to find trusted mechanics. Even if I moved farther away, I would still bring them my business!
Totten pond auto is great, the staff is very friendly and helpful. As a first time car owner it can be daunting to get your car serviced, but I trust the folks at Totten Pond because they clearly communicate what is going on with the car and what services to consider down the road.Also - they will shuttle you to your office (I believe if its within 5 miles). This is a HUGE plus and makes it really convenient to get any services done.
Totten Pond Automotive is the best! Ed is extremely honest, helpful and quick. Ive always had top notch service and will continue to take my car here for all service needs.
The team at Totten Pond is incredibly courteous and professional. They did a great job for a really reasonable price and were able to fit me in the next day to double check a concern. Definitely recommended.
Super professional service every time. They provide a high quality service for a reasonable price. The friendly, knowledgeable staff is always ready to answer any questions I have. The free ride back to my work is just a bonus!
These guys are the best. It’s rare these days to be able to say that you find an honest auto shop. They are honest, dependable, and their prices are fair and reasonable. I’ve had my car serviced there a few times now, and I won’t be going anywhere else.
I started working in the area so I came in for the state inspection sticker and they failed my car for a minor issue. Which is fine but then gave me a pretty ridiculous repair estimate. When to my hometown mechanic and had it fixed for a 1/3 of what they were asking for. Dont think Ill be back no matter how convenient it is.
I love them! Ive been going to them since July of 2010. They are extremely customer service oriented and HONEST! Let me say that one more time...HONEST. Eddie goes the extra mile in checking prices (I needed new tires) to make sure I was getting the best deal. When I first went, I had a 2000 Dodge Durango and happily put in his capable hands. I then purchased a Lexus and was just as comfortable knowing he had the skills and the equipment to just as fabulous as he did before. (And gave me a few pointers!) They are the only place I trust my car. I would go there any day over going to the Lexus dealership. I like the fact he gives me a heads up on what I may want to do in the future (rear shocks) and tells me it isnt urgent but I will need it done in a few months.I can not recommend them enough. My entire office goes there now.
Failed my car for factory tint. This place is horrible. Get your readers calibrated
Eddie and Scott are friendly, no-nonsense, and trustworthy folks. I cant say enough how much I appreciate having a service station to turn to that is reliable and honest and, more importantly, doesnt play games. Prices for my heater repair were fair and they kept me informed.
Friendly, efficient, and quick! Came in with a flat tire and had it fixed in no time. Great service!
Weve been going here for over 25 years. Ed, Scottie, John and Steve have always been great. The service is always professionally done and when you leave, you know your vehicle is good to go. You always know up front what the cost will be.Being able to schedule maintenance online is a big plus.Keep up the great work guys.
Gas is always expensive here price gouging
Went in last summer for an inspection sticker since it is so close to work. Decided to look in to getting my car maintenance there since the dealership was so expensive. They were very honest and up front and told me what my car needed and did not need. I have been taking my car there since and very happy with their service. Also get a free ride to work.
The guys were wonderful in helping me out with my flat tire last Wednesday. It was a few minutes past closing and they still helped me out. Great customer service!
Love this place! always helpful and they do a great job! I work up the street and they are always able to drop me off. They also are the vendor of choice for our company!
I love this place. I know virtually nothing about cars and unfortunately fit the traditional female stereotype on this issue. However, they were not patronizing or condescending in the slightest and explained clearly what was necessary to repair my vehicle. The prices (upon retrospective research) were more than fair and the work was done swiftly. I fully intend to entrust this place with my car in the future.
My wifes auto had a front axle leak in her 2015 Honda Accord. Totten Pond Auto.repaired the car in a very professional manner, in their scrupulously clean shop for $176.07. I got a previous quote of approximately $400 from a Honda dealer in Reading. I am proud to give Totten Pond Automotive five stars. Believe me they are that good !!!Joel A. Lexington
Eddie ans Scott are always very friendly and courteous. I know by taking my cars to these guys that the work will be done right and they will be honest and not try to take advantage of me as a customer. More than once Ive brought my car in for what I thought was one thing, only to have Ed say it is only _____, and has saved me money.
Went to Totten Pond Automotive as I had an issue with my exhaust system. Ed was very helpful and fully explained to me what this issue was. Parts were ordered and the repair was completed in a very satisfactory manner. I found them to be very honest in their work. Highly recommended A+.-RS
Always professional and courteous service. They also do things right the first time and stay on schedule. Highly recommended.
My first time here, but great customer service so far! pleasant gentleman at the counter. reasonably priced oil change. definitely going here again.
I went there for an inspection sticker and they were quick and easy without any issues. The clerk was very courteous and in the store the clerks were very courteous as well and the store was quite clean.
Great service and best of all, honest. Really appreciate the work done to maintain my cars. Thank you. I went back again - great job.
Always a huge fan of totten pond automotive and wont bring my vehicle anywhere else (except for that one time i had a free oil change from the dealership after purchasing my vehicle). These guys are nice to deal with, trustworthy and always get the job done.
I work right down the street from Totten Pond Shell. It is great having them in this convenient location. I love that I can drop my car off in the morning, get a quick shuttle ride to work, and my car is ready in a few hours. They are tremendous at making sure you get what you want, and also let you know other things that could be going on with your car. I use them regularly for oil changes, and other jobs that come up.
Always get high quality work at Totten Pond Automotive. Ed and the others are always professional and pleasant. Prices are very reasonable. They even follow up afterwards to make sure car is running well and I am satisfied.
Professional, courteous, and transparent. I appreciated that they told me exactly what was being done to my car before work started. Although I did not need it, they offered a free shuttle back to my home.
This shop continues to impress me with their professionalism. Honesty. And price. They take the time to explain the issue and even told me I had no issue with my brakes when I was convinced I did. I would def take my car here again and have multiple times. Exceptional service.
The guys at Totten Pond Shell take great care of me and my cars. Theyre convenient - I appreciate that I can drop my car off in the morning - sometimes before 7! - and theyll give me a ride to work. If Im stuck at work I can pick my car up after hours. They patiently answer my questions and give me solid advice to help maintain my cars. They even send regular coupons and maintenance updates as well. Thanks so much for all your help!
They are very accommodating and provide a quality service.
I recently went for my first 2 visits to get an oil change and a tire rotation, then to get a wheel alignment. The first visit went great. I actually asked when I got there if I could add a tire rotation, but it was not possible because they are so busy. No problem. On the second visit, I dropped my car off to get the wheel alignment, and I was called a few hours later to pick up my car. When I got there, I didnt owe anything because my car was well aligned already, so they never did any work, just analyzed it first. John and his team were very honest and did great work. I will surely be going back there.
I’ve had my car serviced here a few time and they always done well. I’ve only had oil and brake services so far but they seem to be able to had any automotive troubles. The prices are very fair, service is friendly and fast, and the shop is clean.
When to Totten Pond Auto Service Center for the first time today to have my oil changed. It was amazing. They actually took my car at the time I had an appointment for and were very polite and fast. Much better then the Dealer, I will be coming back again.
I take both our cars to Eddy for service for the last two years. The work is good and the customer service is great. I get a ride to work each time I drop a car off. The Care care club has been great too for oil changes and tire rotations. Other repair work was less than the dealers asked for and was done right. Not much more you can ask for really.
I have been going to the Totten Pond Shell for almost 18 years now and the service there is outstanding. Eddie always takes care of me and my car and I can get an oil change with 1 days notice. They drive me to my office in the morning and then I can pick the car up within a few hours, so it is extremely convenient. I would highly recommend this gas station for service and reliability.
Thanks for a great experience getting my car worked on! Needed new brake pads and rotors, along with an oil change. John was very honest with me about what I needed/didnt need/could live without, and worked with me to decide on what to do for my car. Its now back in great, working order. I got a call with a quote, and then a call when it was done. Car was done quickly, and I was able to pick it up at my convenience. You know, it can be tough going in for auto work as a woman, and I am not very knowledgeable about cars, but I felt I was treated more than fairly and everything was explained in a kind, non-condescending manner. I highly recommend! Thanks for everything! I will be back!
Ive been a customer at Totten Pond Shell for a while now, and I always leave very satisfied. Everyone is very pleasant and efficient. They are very accommodating when you call for an appointment and prices are extremely reasonable. I never get the feeling that theyre trying to take advantage of me or sell me on something that I dont really need. The reception/waiting area is also always extremely well-kept. My whole family comes here and Id definitely recommend it to anyone looking for anything from an oil change to more serious work!
Perfect
Excellent service! I dropped my car off in the morning for an oil change and engine check. Within a couple of hours I got a call and received a very detailed explanation of all the found issues and options to resolve them. They even offered me a ride to work!
I always receive great service here! Additionally, they make it convenient for me by offering a shuttle service and the ability to pick up my car after hours.
Brought my car here for engine issue and was quickly cared for. They charged half of what its cost at other places. Great experience!
Great snacks
Great Mechanics! They stayed late on a Saturday to do my brakes on a last-minute request and seemed fair and honest. I would highly recommend.
Very helpful and courteous staff. I have been taking my car here for service since I moved to Boston (March) and am very satisfied. They are reasonably priced and do a very good job. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to keep their car is good order. They also have a shuttle drop off so you can drop off your car and go to work for the day, and pick it up later!
I have only good things to say about these guys. All services were performed exactly as promised and they alerted me to upcoming issues with no pressure to perform the service until it was necessary. Thumbs up.
Ive been having my car serviced here for the past few years. I am very happy with their service and prices. They are conveniently located across the street from my office so I can just drop my car off in the morning and pick up when I leave for the day.Eddie is awesome and always takes the time to explain everything and go over prices beforehand so there are never any surprises. Im confident in their work and would highly recommend them.
These guys are honest and convenient. Two essential requirements, in my opinion, for a mechanic. I drop off my vehicle in the morning and they are done by the time I need to go home after work. They dont charge for non-essential work and always check with me before proceeding with needed repairs. It is evident they would rather provide valuable customer service than trick me out of a few extra bucks like some other mechanics. I highly recommend this shop.
Its been third visit to this center and and the service provided is Excellent every time; One time given me dependable advice as well.The staff is always very professional, I am greeted immediately and I got my inspection done yesterday in under 15 minutes.best part of there business is Quick service and accommodating without any appointment !!!
The service team down at Totten Pond Shell are really very good. I have been going to them for years. Not only are their prices fair, but they are very clear about exactly what is and is not necessary. They also give me a ride to work in the morning when I drop off my car. Eddie, in particular, is really great to work with.
I found this place when I was trying to get a price quote for my brakes. My dealer told me that I need to replace those. This place was very honest and down to the earth. They told me that my brakes still have one or two more years to go and I did not need to replace them right away.I came to this place for oil change and other service since. I also like that they provide a quick shuttle service to work for free.
I love these guys! They are honest, reasonably priced and always accommodating. Eddy and John are always willing to go the extra mile to get me in quickly and the shuttle service is great. I have been a customer for about 10 years and I have referred dozens of co-workers to Totten Pond Automotive - never, ever disappointing.
I started coming to the service station during the winter and these guys are top notch. They are very thorough with their work and make you feel very comfortable with the diagnosis. I hate to use a cliche, but they really go above and beyond. They are up front with all the information and the bottom line is that I trust them, all around good guys!! They even have a shuttle service if you work in the area!
Ive been here a couple of times for regular maintenance like oil changes. They are always fast, reliable, and very affordable. Good value and great choice for regular auto maintenance.
Totten Pond Auto has earned my business. They rebuilt the front brakes on my Sonata. The left front brake locked up 7 months later. Because I couldn’t drive it that way, I dropped it off at a nearby garage. I called Totten Pond Auto and told Eddie what had happened. Per his instructions, the other garage saved the old parts when they replaced the left front brake. I took the old parts to Totten Pond, and Eddie refunded the cost for the parts and labor, per the 12 month warranty I had received on their work.
Excellent customer service and follow-up. Complimentary shuttle to get me to work and back. Honest about repair options and cost of after market vs. dealer parts.
I went here for a sticker, and was given full information and options on failure. Was able to leave my car to be fixed for the next day and service was quick and friendly. Would recommend going here as they are informative and helpful, and give you all the options you have to get what you need at the least necessary cost.
I have used Totten Pond Shell for the last few years for my annual inspection for my 4 cars. They are most accommodating to my schedule and finish the inspection when they say they will, and thankfully it usually passes. On occasion they have repaired small problems noticed during inspection, such as wiper blades or bulbs, at a reasonable cost. They are close to my home. I would not hesitate recommending them to other patrons.
Except a 36 dollars standard oil change, I was charged 27 dollars for a battery check and tightening a loose screw on the battery terminal. I dont believe the pricing was fair.Extra star because the service was quick.
Great service! When Ive requested a quote they provide it in writing with detail on parts and labor. When I drop off my car in the morning they give me a lift to work, and call me when theyre done. When unanticipated items came up they called before doing additional work. Everyone in the service shop has been very courteous and taken the time to ensure we are on the same page with regards to what work is being done, timing, and associated costs. Ive recommended this place to a handful of people as a result. They were satisfied as well.
It couldnt be more convenient having this service station located so close to work. They are able to take care of all of my cars needs for me and even offered to drive me to work!This is my second time bringing my car to get its inspection done at this location and they have been timely in the execution during both visits.I would definitely recommend using this location for anyone who works in the 128 business park!
These guys are always honest and upfront and get the work done! They keep the place clean, the keep the customers happy and the provide quality work! What more could you ask for? Thanks guys!
I changed by review from positive to negative. I realize they have so many reviews because they give people a discount for putting reviews. Oh and you are supposed to put a review while dropping the car, so you have not had a chance to fully validate their work. Their shuttle drop off service has only certain hours which they dont advertise. They put an oil change sticker for 4000 miles even though the factory recommended us at least 5000. I complained and they claim that there is no Toyota recommendation and they recommend 4000.
I have been taking my car and my husbands car to Ed and Totten Pond Shell since 2007! I work in the area and had been referred here by colleagues. I have had oil changes, inspection stickers, brakes, and other work done here and have never had any issues. They are quick, reasonable, and very courteous....when you drop off your car they offer you a ride to your office! I recommend Totten Pond Shell to everyone and am very happy to have a reliable and honest place to take my car that is close to work.
I was referred to Totten Pond Automotive by some of my colleagues that had gone there for work. So I went to them for an oil change, and found the support there to be very helpful and straight forward. I also asked them to check my brakes as I received a quote from another auto shop to provide repairs. Totten Pond did the assessment at no cost, and quoted me a price far less than the other shop. I feel very confident in moving forward with them for this service. They were willing to schedule me based on my availability and have a shuttle service that can take you to and from work. I highly recommend!
