Pit Stop Garage

This is an excellent garage. The owners are super honest and will not try to sell you services you don’t need. I started to bring my 10 year old Camry there upon recommendation of a friend and have not been disappointed. I had been bringing my Camry to the dealership for inspections once every six months. It always cost at least $ 75 and sometime as much as $ 550 for the major service. Last visit Pit Stop for an inspection and oil change was $ 30. Should have started going there a long time ago. Probably would have been able to afford a nicer car with all the saved money.

I came in to do a Oil Change, it was quick and easy and of course at a very good price.

Since I found these guys thru Unilocal,it’s only fair I add to their reviews. Came in for the annual NY inspection and oil change. They found an issue with my brakes and explained several possibilities and options — the worse of which would have required a return trip to replace the entire caliper. Nonetheless, they took the time to inspect the various parts (I was watching them and they had no issues showing me what they were doing) and eventually concluded that a simple brake pad replacement should fix it. From chatting with Steve, they are a very honest business and mainly rely on word-​of-​mouth for their customers, so I’m pretty certain they’re not out to gouge anyone.
Very reasonable rates with knowledgeable mechanics. I would not hesitate to recommend them to my friends /​families for future car issues.

Excellent so far with my 2^nd brief experience! 1. They told me I didn’t need to change my oil yet since it was a brand new car with 3k. 2. They told me there was nothing wrong underneath my car after I had a minor accident — no pressure to even have alignment or any work.
They seem to not be money-​bent but honest business people. You be the judge!

Talk about honest good people… Hard to find especially in the auto body industry. I’ve been coming to this auto body shop for over 9yrs (starting from the previous owner) and I won’t go anywhere else. Love the service, love the people…5 stars all the way!

Honest people that are NOT in business to rip you off, great work, dependable, look no further. this is the place to go.

The owners are honest and friendly; always looking to help you. I’ve gone here a few times and I feel very comfortable with them fixing my car. I know I’ll get great service for a reasonable price.
They should be your new mechanic.

They’re such honest people. They might not be the friendliest but they wouldn’t cheat you out of your money, that’s for sure. I plan on coming here for all my future car repairs. No more dealership repairs and overpriced oil changes

Picking out your go-​to garage is like picking out a strip club; the shadier the better. Pit Stop Garage is a shady looking shack on the corner of Murder St and Rape Ln.
I’ve been here for general inspections, state inspections, and whatever potential problem my paranoid brain could think of. You don’t need to wait long for service here, unless you come on the first weekend of the month.
They are honest and to the point. Other garages were ready to tell me how imminent my doom is if I don’t cough up 500 bucks to fix every scratch on my car, but the guys here will give you a humanly reasonable analysis. They could have gotten a lot of money from me poaching my paranoia but so far, it has only been a few oil changes and recommendations on future checkup times.

Flushing… another auto repair place… as common as a soup dumpling joint right? WRONG!
By far the best service garage in Flushing! SAVE thousands by NOT going to your dealership!
Steve the owner goes out of his way to do whatever is necessary to help you and at great value!
Got car problems, leave PIT STOP with everything fixed! Had a blown bulb in my license plate area and he fixed it with out asking and didn’t charge me… topped my fluids no charge! I never asked for that but he provided!
Seven stars if I could!

Steve and Jay are very professional mechanics. My wife’s car had damaged swaybar end links and they replaced both for $ 170. I came on a Monday, jay diagnosed the problem and ordered the parts. I came back the day after for the labor. Everything was on time and proficient. Highly recommended. 2010 Nissan Altima.

I went in for an inspection for my Honda. I am a dummy when it comes to a car so I just didn’t want to go anywhere to get the inspection. So, I did my research on Unilocal and came across this shop. I do live in long island so I could have gone somewhere close to my house but none of the shops on Unilocal had decent review… Anyway, to make a loong story short, I called them to inquire about a price but as soon as I said to the store clerk that my car is 2013, he said that it will only be 10 bucks. He said something like safety inspection. So, i went in there, and met with a very friendly guy and came out less than 5 minutes! My husband was impressed that these guys were so honest because they could have charged me regular price ESPECIALLY, I am a woman who is clueless about cars! My point is GO to these guys. They are HONEST and very Professional!!!

Honest and efficient! Mechanics are professional and knowledgeable. I’ve been going there for years. Thanks for saving me in many ways!

this place is great, mechanics are nice and professional, also fast and honest,
boss charged me $ 5 for one nail in the tire, very sweet, will come again for oil change, close to flushing neiborhood and easy to find.

Great guys that work here that are honest and fair with pricing. If your car is in need of work, drop by here and have them give it a look over. Jay and Steve will take care of you. Both of these guys will actually take the time to explain the problem with your car to you instead of just looking to make a buck off you.
I’ve been coming here for many years and I send all my family and friends here as well.

Dropped by here when my mechanic was busy.
They were quick, honest and informative. I’ll be dropping here more often.

I went looking for a mechanic I could trust.
Reviews don’t lie, this place is amazing.
Great and honest customer service.
They serviced my Acura tsx and
in the end gave me a fair price.
Would have paid triple at Paragon
Acura and not have gotten the excellent
Customer service.
Thank you Jay!

These guys are great! Saved me over $ 2000 compared to Star Toyota just by telling me to switch over to a different brand of gas.

Best place for ALL your car needs.
I’ve been going to this location for 20 years. First when it was John’s Auto Body and then when John left, I felt no need to change and worked with Jay and Steve.
Now honestly for the first few years, it was just inspection once a year, oil change 3000 miles and a tune up and routine maintenance.
But then I got a company car (2003 PT Cruiser) with a dashboard that lights up like the Times Square on NYE with problems. Every time I drive in, Jay and Steve are courteous, nice, professional and honest. They quote you a fair and reasonable price and If the cost is ever more than what they quoted, they’ll call you before they start anything. If its more cost effective to go down to Citi Field, they will advise you to do that too! (uh yeah I’ll take that $ 50 rim and tire at Citi Field than $ 200 for a new one Thank you!!!)
They know I have a company card and that I can charge whatever work I want but they have never suggested I fix anything other than what I need. I’ve actually heard them tell me «this car is only worth $ 2000. you don’t want to spend $??? on the car. its just not worth it» I mean Who says that?

Second time around here and looks like this place will be my TO-​GO spot for my Astro Van. First time I went, they changed my tires. Years later, I decided to go back and this time I had them swap out my old Wheels/​Rims for new ones. They even went out of their way to get the proper lug nuts for safety! They didn’t just slap the old improper ones back on and called it a day. I was going from STEEL RIMS to ALLOY RIMS so the lug nuts are different.
They did such a great job, I highly recommend them! They informed me of everything that was needed for my vehicle and allowed me to make my decision. They respect the customer and I respect them. Ask for Jay or Steve when you go there. Will go there again and again! 5 stars!
