Pat T.

Always have great experience here. I was surprised at how smoothly the whole emissions problems I had were fixed. They also were able to help with why the car wasn’t running that well. I don’t have any fears of being overcharged when I go here, which for someone who isn’t an auto mechanic is just about all you can ask for.
We trust specialists these days more than ever, just like we trust regular people in their reviews of those specialists. So, if you use reviews like the one you are reading now, to determine if you’re going to shop somewhere local, then be sure to enter those reviews when you have an experience so places like this can continue to serve as our local community.

I was so overwhelmed with a customer friendly vibe from my 1st visit on! I felt that my issues were the most important ones in the building! I dealt exclusively with Matt Thibodeau the Accessories manager and he was always professional, Proactive and patient! His knowledge regarding car products was never ending and I’m glad our paths crossed and I will be suggesting this business to anyone in need of services they can provide!

Excellent customer service! Matt and his Team do a fantastic job, last April Macara Team installed remote starter and tints on my wife’s 2017 Subaru Legacy next day brought my 2009 Honda Pilot to do the same thing. Here I am less then a year later brought in my 2021 Ram 1500 to get fluid film, Rhino Lining spray-in bed liner and Tints. If your looking for quality work done right at an affordable cost with perfection give Matt a call today!

I purchased a quad for my kids for Christmas. I had some trouble setting it up and it wasn’t running right. I reached out to Kevin and he made time in his busy schedule to come to my house (I don’t have a truck) and work on this for me knowing it was a Christmas gift. I had previously tried adjusting the carburetor and broken the jet screw. He replaced the carburetor, swapped the wheels I had on backwards, properly torqued everything, and set the valve timing. He was courteous and professional. This was done quickly and my sons quad is ready for Christmas! I would highly recommend Kevin for all your ATV sales and service. I have referred him to friends and will be going to him for our next recreational vehicle.
