Griffin's Auto Repair

Abraham and Marshall are such gentlemen and explained everything to me in detail about what needed to be done on my 1994 Volvo. They were not pushy and before starting any work, they called me and went over all the options I had. Peter was the mechanic and was extremely knowledgable and just by listening to my car run, knew what the problem was. This is a great neighborhood shop and I recommend you take your car here. New or old. Thanks guys!!

My 1996 Sebring had developed a mysterious rattle in the area of the air conditioner, so I took my car to Griffin Auto Service. We road tested the car & found that the rattle was behind the glove compartment. It took about one hour to road test, find the problem & fix it. Still, they told me they wouldn't charge me for that repair.

I had just moved into Little Italy when my service light turned on. So I decided to take my 2007 Lexus in to the local repair shop. I was very impressed with how clean the WHOLE establishment is. They obviously care about what they are doing. They gave me a ride to work in a clean comfortable car. They called me with an estimate for my 30K service, which was less then the dealer. I dropped my car off at 8am and was ready by noon. They called me 4 days later to thank me for the business. I also got a thank you card in the mail. Griffins Auto Repair really shows they care about their customers. Now I see why they have been in business for 50 years. I' ve referred several of my friends and they all thank me for the referral.

Amazing service. Quick and Friendly. A great deal and they even offered me refreshments. I will definitely be a returning customer.

These guys do quality work at a very fair price. Ive been getting all my scheduled maintenance done on my car since it was new. My car is 7 years old and still runs like new. I work in downtown so I just drop it off in the morning and they have it ready by the time I get off from work. These people care about you and your car. They show it by calling you about 3 to 4 day after you have come in for service, just to make sure everything is ok. I recommend them to all my freinds and family.

I have been bringing my vehicle to Griffin's for about 2 years now. I received a flier in the mail from the shop when I first moved to Little Italy - I was definitely in need of a new place to take my car that was close to my new home, so I decided to give them a shot. I'm usually a bit weary about going to auto shops - at most shops you walk in the door knowing you are going to get ripped off, but Griffin's is SO MUCH DIFFERENT! They are very honest straight shooters Yes, they recommend service that my car needs, but it is always reasonable! The staff is very friendly, they explain exactly what is going on, and will even bring the parts in off my car to actually SHOW me when something needs repair. I appreciate that, since I don't know a thing about the inner workings of my automobile! If you are looking for a great place to bring your car, make sure you check out Griffin's!

Had my breaks done. They rotated the tires at the same time. Quick and efficient service. Good price. I would definately recommend this shop to anyone who needs repairs done.

They over promise and UNDER deliver!!!!!
If you have a new car, do NOT take it to them as they do not have the knowledge or proper computers/machines to adequately service your late model car!

They dont even know how to reset a oil or tire monitor system!!!

my cars air conditioning was not working properly and i took my car here to have it fixed. i was able to get in soon and they were very frienldy and honest. they told me that the compressor was blown out and i needed a new one. they have all the parts at good prices and i was out of there in a short time. very honest business.

They don't mess around. You bring your car in, they tell you when it will be done, and they fix it!! I brought my 1997 explorer in for a new Air conditioning system, and they put it in, on time, and it works great!!
