M Albert & Son Auto in Beacon

Review №1

I have been bringing my car to M. Albert & Son for many years. I like them because they know their stuff and are very honest. Many times I have brought my car in when I thought I might have a problem and if they found there was not real problem, there was no charge. They never try do an up-sell to get me to buy parts or services that I dont really need. But, more importantly, when the car has a real problem, they fix it. And, they fix it without hunting and pecking for a solution and charging for a lot of unnecessary work. I very highly recommend M. Albert and Son for any automotive repair and maintenance needs.

Finding a good mechanic is a hard thing to do. Finding one thats honest as well is almost impossible. Youll find both in Mike, his son David and Dirk at M. Albert and Son Auto.My family has been coming here since we moved to Beacon over 15 years ago. We tried them based on the positive recommendations of our neighbors - we stayed because what they said was true. Their experience will save you time and money. Theres no shotgun approach to repair here. Theyre expert at diagnosing your vehicles problem, fixing that problem - and ONLY fixing that problem. No oversell and no inflated invoices. My familys cars consist of a 1996 Camry, a 2001 Taurus and a 2003 Sable. Mike and the team here have kept me car-payment free for a long time.Heres an example. My Taurus needed a new engine. Something common in that model at that age. My choice was to either replace the engine or buy another car. I opted to have them install a rebuilt Jasper engine. (They are an authorized dealer.) to this day the car runs better and has more power than when I bought it new in 2001. And it came in UNDER the estimate Ive been given.If youre looking for a mechanic you need to give these guys a try. Anyone who knows me or has read my Yelp reviews know Im a hard person to please so this recommendation isnt given lightly.

Was given a verbal estimate range for the cost and time for repairs. The repairs were $200 more than the highest estimate, and took an additional full day. The car was returned filthy (the window had clearly been left open) and nothing had been re-set after the battery was disconnected. The owner is incredibly rude (think Simon Cowell minus the wit). Would not return to this establishment if it happened to be the last place on Earth (which is a bit what the place looks like).

Was extremely creepy asking to “drive me home” and encouraged me to sell my car bc it was “junk” but my mechanic at home said all it needed was a break line repair

Hard working mechanics and super reasonable prices. An old school garage with a hometown feel. Trustworthy too. Remember, youre only as good as your mechanic.
