Andy's Auto Repair

Friday, July 09, 2004

Andy's Auto Repair was recommended by NPR's weekly "Car Talk" show. The shop specializes in Japanese vehicles, though they service European vehicles as well. Before Andy's I was quite pessimistic about auto repair shops. Recently I took a Subaru Outback to have a tune up there (the car's first in several years) and was thoroughly impressed by Andy's honesty regarding what I should and should not have serviced. Not once did Andy ever pressure me to have something extra replaced or repaired. A tune up cost me less than $400 and his team even meticulously cleaned every door lock of the rust that accumulated from the car's previous life in Boston. They did not charge me anything for this service. Originally, the Subaru dealer told me I would have to replace ALL the locks. Andy's accepts checks or credit cards and can arrange for you to pick up the car after hours.
