5-star review by Nimesh Patel

"Excellent Service! Came in for a tire nail patch and rotation — the team was quick, professional, and did an outstanding job. The repair was flawless, and they balanced and rotated all four tires perfectly. My car drives smoother than ever. Highly recommend for quality work and honest service!"

5-star review by Madelin Gutierrez

"I recently had suspension work done on my car, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Joe helped me from beginning to end — he explained the issues clearly, kept me updated throughout the process, and made sure everything was done right. His staff worked quickly and efficiently, and the price was fair. My car now drives smoother than ever. Excellent service and communication from start to finish — I’ll definitely return for future maintenance!"

5-star review by Alex DelaCruz

"Came with needing a whole mess of fluids change; transmission, oil, coolant and brakes. Did a walk in and Joe was great enough to squeeze me into an already packed day. After a reasonable time and notifications on anything else they inspected the car was done. Total charge was way less than what dealerships would’ve charged. Overall I’m satisfied with the work done and will be coming back for any car repairs. Thank you guys over at E&G!"

5-star review by Jean Temperini

"I was very pleased with the service my car received at EG Auto. Joe, the young man at the desk, kept me up to date on what was happening with my car. Very personable and accommodating. I will certainly be back if my car needs any work. Kudos to all the employees.👍 😊"

5-star review by Krishna Polavarapu

"The moment we enter the auto center, we feel like very cleanly and well maintained. Joe is so welcoming. I went for my slow lose of air on of my tire. It was dealt very quickly and most economical. I went at 8 AM and they started to look and completely fixed by 8:20 AM. I was surprised they had full service center and I am not aware of it till now. The prices are so economical as well. Thank you Joe and staff for your help."
