John of Walson's Service Center, Woodmere NY

Not often do you send your car for repair, get it fixed, and not be charged. That is exactly what happened to me.

Walked in for an inspection without an appointment, and the mechanic agreed to take me. Very courteous and professional. Quick service. In and out with ease.

Very nice people. First time visit.and I
Needed something minor and they treated me like a long time friend

Excellent establishment. Friendliest and most courteous staff. Used them multiple times from basic inspection to major repairs. Honest and reliable.

I have been working with them now for years on multiple vehicles and never had any issues. They value their customers and are a very professional team. I highly recommend them.

All mechanics and dealers are crooks. This shop is the only one in the neighborhood I trust. I am confident they will diagnose my issue properly and fix it the right way so I don't have to go back twice like some other shops in town I've used. However he is very pricey. Even an oil change is over priced. I still use him though because he's the only one in town I am confident won't screw me over with repairs I don't need. Just wish his prices were more down to earth. You go out in long island there are shops which are fair pricing and are as reliable. He takes advantage of the five towns.

I've been using John for almost 30 years. He does great work and is as honest as they come! I needed a tire that was unavailable everywhere I went or a 2 week wait at other places, John had it on my car within 24 hrs!

1st. Walson has a very nasty foul mouth when in the presence of his customers. From the reviews I believe it’s toward certain customers, the darker ones if you get my drift.
2nd. He misdiagnosed my car, I believe to be on purpose, I basically burned my money. I’ll never go back.

Friendly service in this neighborhood shop. I only use it for maintenance, so can't talk about how good they are for repairs.

Great experience there. Owner was very nice and professional. Brought my car in and the issue needed to be handled by a dealer instead of him so he didn't charge me for the inspecting and digging around that he did on the car and even recommended me to the best dealer of my car in the area that I would have the easiest time dealing with. Even called back for a couple questions about pricing later in the week and he answered honestly and with only my best intentions at heart.

The service was fine however they left one of the sensors detached in my engine so my check engine light came on. I am less than impressed.
