Auto Repair in New Bedford, MA

“Great shop. Victor is great and very easy to talk to and will work with you so that everything goes well. They fix your car quickly and when you get it back your car is clean inside and out and looks brand new. I highly recommend them for all your auto body needs”

“Great service here. Went for a pre-purchase inspection and we were late but we did the 30 minute one and they were able to explain everything that was going on with the vehicle. Highly recommend these guys. Definitely the place to go to when shopping for a vehicle. Quick, efficient, and highly knowledgeable.”

“Great place for all your alternator and starter needs, if it can't be rebuilt they can get you a new one, stay away from chain auto parts places, shop local and buy quality not imported rebuilt junk.!!!!!”

“This place is awesome!!! Joseph got me set up with 4 tires and an alignment for an unbelievable price. Super nice people all around. I’ll be back for sure!! Thanks”

“Scott was the only mechanic that could figure out what was wrong with my car after going to multiple shops. Service was quick and the price fair and my car didn't have any problems after that ,that's why i kept going back whenever i needed something done.”

“After having looked around at a couple other used dealerships, and hearing great reviews from both mine and my boyfriend's family, I ended up getting a very nice 2015 Ford Edge from Ralph's in June.

The purchasing process was extremely smooth, Ralph worked out a great deal with us and gave me a fair trade in value on my old car. I was able to pick it up in about a week and every person I interacted with was friendly, helpful and very competent. Also, I absolutely LOVE this car.

I would absolutely recommend checking out Ralph's for your next car, but there are two very small factors that made me lower my rating from 5 to 4 stars.

The first, is that when I picked up the car, there was one panel missing from the dash but I was assured it was no issue, and that as soon as it arrived at the shop they would give me a call and it would be fixed. The missing panel has no impact on driving or using my car, but just doesn't look great. I waited as long as I did to write this review because I really wanted to be able to say that it had been taken care of when I did, but sadly it hasn't. The last time we check in with them, we were told that the part has been hard to get, but that we would hear from them as soon as they get it, so if that happens I will immediately update this.

The other issue I had was that a little over a month after I bought it, I ended up having to do front brake work. This probably wouldn't have impacted my rating because it is a used and older car, but it was slightly frustrating that it was so soon after the 30 day warranty and I felt like it should be mentioned.”

“Hands down, the best body shop around. The owners and employees go above and beyond what is needed to get your vehicle repaired. Paint and body work done on my Audi was flawless. They even detailed my entire car. No exaggeration, it looked like it came out of a showroom.”

“Art is a unicorn in the auto repair industry, from start to finish, every step of the process is professional and courteous in such a way that removes any stress from the experience. I highly recommend his friendly approach to his clients who may not understand the complexity of their vehicle issues, and getting them back to normal.”

“When you unfortunately get into a accident the best place to have your car fix is here. It looks new when he is done with it he cuts no corners. Have your car look new again.”

“Sometime back around 2002 or 2003 so long can't remember but I bought a used 93 dge caravan from my brother's friend's mom, my friend who used to be a mechanic checked it out from top to bottom and told me to buy it. He mentioned some issues but again told me to buy it and I did. He put me in contact with a buddy mechanic of his name Bob.Bob ended up being the best mechanic in this world I have ever met. At the end of 2005 I decided to leave the state (best move ever). The only problem I had was leaving Bob, losing a great mechanic, and not being able to bring Bob with me because I knew I would never find a great mechanic like Bob.In 2008 I decided to sell the 93 dge caravn that made it from MA, to FL, to NC, then made SC home. I paid $200. for that van and sold it for $600. It was so worth it.It is now 2022, I was going through a bin I had in storage and came across Bob's receipt, looked him up to find he is still in business, (not surprised) best mechanic ever. I still have not found a mechanic like Bob. Miss you Bob , but so happy for you ?.”

“Paul's place is the best of all the places I've been he is honest reliable and will work with you I would recommend him to anybody that has an automobile problem”

“We have been using Mid Cape Tire for a little over a year for our 4 car delivery fleet. Mike is a no nonsense kind of guy (in the best kind of gruff Mass mechanic way! lol), but always gets right to the issue and solution, and wont try to oversell but does let you know whats needed on the car. We often bring our vehicles to him on a moments notice for tires, oil, and other mechanical needs and he's so quick with turnaround or is upfront about any delays or hurdles. As a small business, we appreciate working with another reliable local business that understands our needs and limitations. Thank you for all you do for us!”

“My car was over heating the day before 4th of July a friend of mine Recommended me to Neighborhood Auto , I called jordan and he was able to fix my car the same day, communication was good, the repair was done in a reasonable time & very affordable. Thanks neighborhood for saving me before the holiday ! I would have been stuck home with no car , since then I brought my car back for an oil change because of the over all experience . I’ll be back again ?”

“Had my front rt bumper scratches up and dinged up from avoiding hitting a car that cut me off, got a referral from a friend to take my car to SPARKYS. I had Rick fix it ALL UP! EXCELLENT WORK!! IM BEYOND HAPPY with the results price not bad at all.”

“I watched from the warmth of my home the tow truck pull up to an accident on acushnet Ave. in NB around 11pm, the operator was AMAZING not only did he get the car on the truck but proceeded then to pick up and drag every piece of that car from inside the park, in the street, and sidewalk and put them in the car. The car's windows were all broken and the undercarriage and I even believe parts of the motor were every where. When he finished that he proceeded to sweep up all the glass from street and sidewalk. I have never witnessed in my 74 yrs. next month, a man so conscientious or more professional at his work. This man takes pride in his work! Not all people have that kind of work ethic, especially considering the freezing temps and wind. I will definately call Talbot's if I ever need a tow. He was out there for about 45 minutes, I am so impressed. KUDOS TO THAT DRIVER!”

“I feel like people tend to write reviews when they're in the honeymoon phase of the buying process and I wanted to wait and make sure I was giving you all (potential customers of Pleasant Motors) a true and honest review. I have owned my Tahoe I bought from Brian for just over two years (purchased in July of 2020) and at this point truly couldn't be happier with things and feel the SAME way I felt the day I drove it home. My feelings on the entire process from start to finish have remained unchanged. The process was quick, efficient and HONEST. From the time I saw the listing until I drove the vehicle home was literally a matter of couple days and this was all in the height of 2020 when things were anything but normal. I saw the listing on Saturday afternoon, Brian contacted me first thing Sunday, and it was in my driveway by Wednesday. Brian even drove the truck to me (I've never had that happen) so I could test drive it near my house since I lived over an hour from his dealership. He was NEVER pushy and I honestly felt like he just wanted me to be happy. I felt the vehicle was very fairly priced and since then I've spent over $10k customizing it. I've had a lot of fun with it. It's a phenomenal vehicle and I get complimented all the time. I make sure to mention Brian and Pleasant Motors every time too. I'm definitely NOT saying that in a pretentious way either...moreso because it shows Brian really knows what he's doing. He won't just sell any car or truck. He's not a typical used car dealer. He wants quality vehicles that he can find new homes for. He cares about what he sells because he wants us, his clients, to be happy and he wants us, his clients, to remember the experience and remember him so we come back to him and refer him out to our friends and family. He wants to truly EARN your business. The financing process was also pretty seamless and the overall process was just easy...for lack of a better word. No stress, no frustration, just straightforward and hassle-free. A true “unicorn” experience during such a chaotic time in this country that summer, especially in the auto industry. I will ABSOLUTELY go to Brian when I'm ready to get something new. He was friendly, outgoing, genuine and on top of things. A no-BS kind of guy too which is rare in this business. Above all else, he wasn't "salesy," he just wanted to get me into a vehicle I was happy with. Well Brian, I am happy...still happy. Very happy too. And it's all thanks to you. All used car dealers are NOT created equal and Brian and Pleasant Motors are a clear testament to that. Thank you for a great buying/trading experience Brian. See you in a couple years!”

“Great service and excellent work. Both my vehicles came back looking like they were new. One vehicle had garage door scrapes that I believed would require paint work and they were gone after the detailing! Highly recommend Kevin and his crew!”

“Great station! Friendly and profession. Had my vehicle inspected quickly even though they were about to shut the inspection station down for the day. Highly recommended”

“BEST AUTOMOTIVE AND MARINE PARTS STORE AROUND MASSACHUSETTS !!!!! THEY HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR YEARS AND YEARS, AND THEY'RE EXPERIENCE AND CUSTOMER RELATIONS IS EXCELLENT !!!! ICE BEEN IN THE AUTOMOTIVE BUSINESS FUR ABOUT 30 YEARS, AND BEEN THROUGH PARTS HASSLES OF ALL KINDS WITH OTHER PARTS DEALERS.... THE QUALITY IS PARTS ARE ALWAYS VERY WELL MADE !!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!!!”

“Always kind, speedy service…never trusted a car repair place til I found J&P <3. The guys who work here are the kind of guys who don’t say much but when they do, it’s genuine and with a sense of humor. Very well run and reliable - my go to oil change inspection sticker and gas spot.”

“Can’t get any better than them! Always on point and get exactly what I need done in a timely manner. Have never had a problem with anything I’ve gotten done here from brakes, oil changes, headlights, alternator, etc they have always taken great care of my car. Reasonable prices and always call if anything else needs to be fixed and ask if I want to do it which is great to be updated throughout the process. As a young women, I see some getting taken advanced of, but never here. they’re honest and hard working!! Will never take my car anywhere, but here. Truly grateful!”

“Great Used Tire shop. The owner Mike Frates and his staff were awesome. Mr Frates was personally involved in selecting my tires for my vehicle and he gave me a fantastic price.”

“For the past few years, I've been a regular customer here for gas, inspections, and service. The staff is always friendly, professional, and honest. I trust them with my vehicle every time.”

“It's not often that I'm excited about a mechanic but gosh darn it these people are fantastic!

This is the third time I've had a car in with them over the past year and they have done a great job every time. Considering the quality and speed of work I think the pricing is very fair. It's going to cost more than the guy working from his driveway but still far less than the dealership or any chain shop.

Not only did they do a great job with my wife's car, but I just had mine in today for a completely custom suspension and they got the whole job turned around same day. And when I noticed my passenger window wouldn't go down, even though it was completely unrelated to the suspension job, they called one of their contacts who's a Subaru specialist, and got an immediate fix - turns out that the window controls can get confused when the battery completely dies, and my car had just been broken into a couple nights back resulting in a fully dead battery.

It would have taken me a lot longer to figure out the issue, but they had a solution in 5 minutes for the cost of a handshake.

Oh, and they gave my dog treats and attention while I was paying - how could it get any better?

TEN STARS”

“I love this place, truthfully they are so nice and professional.They are a honest company too. They don't try and sell you what you don't need.I always come here when I need something done to my car.”

“Goyettes is my go-to for anything LKQ. I run a body shop in Somerville and I've been working with Dan for 2 years on a daily basis. In this industry, it's tough to find someone who's honest, dependable, and willing to work with you. Goyettes has a huge network of partner yards. If they don't have it, they'll find someone who does. Parts come as advertised and on time. That's all you can ask for.”

“Very good mechanical experience from all their tech's from the father to the son very good in price for the work they do and quick also very respectful it seems that I know does guy's for a long time like family”

“They have wonderful costumer service and great communication skills. They were quick to help me with my car troubles and are great to do business with. I would recommend this place to friends or family.”

“One of probably two mechanics I trust in the area, been a mechanic, my whole life it’s hard to find an honest mechanic Mike is always treating me right and very confident and diagnosing what the situation is probably not the cheapest but when he’s done, it’s done very seldom to you have to repeat or go back”

“Nate is not only incredibly knowledgeable about the work done to my vehicle, he had great aftermarket tips as well. This is absolutely the place to go for basic maintenance or even modifications. Good honest service, good prices. I never worry leaving my car with these guys.Services: Tires”
