Advance Auto Center

Not much needs to be said here, except this is mechanic you can trust. Reasonable prices for repairs (I know everything is relative). I priced a couple "major" jobs comparing dealer, Advance, and another shop. Advance was the most comprehensive with best price each time. Other positive factors- he's local and open Mon - Fri to 6, Sat to 3.

We've used Advance for our fleet of commercial vehicles for years. This business is honest, extremely competent and fairly priced. We highly recommend them.

This is the first time I have been here and I will definitely come back. They were very nice, went out of their way to explain the reasons for all the repair needs I had.

When I had an unexpected brake problem, other shops in the area refused to work on it because they said it was a hybrid. Not only did Advance Auto Center have the confidence to work on it, but they also squeezed me into their busy schedule. They accurately diagnosed the issue and had it repaired the same day. I enjoyed their service so much that I brought them my other vehicle to work on. Again, they did quick phenomenal work on that one, too. As a local guide with almost 200,000 views, I would highly recommend giving them a call.

I can’t tell you how hard it has been to find an honest, reliable auto shop in Boston. I’m so glad I finally found one in Advance Auto Center. I called for a problem with my car that I needed fixed right away, and not only was I able to bring the car in the very next morning, they had it finished that same day. What I thought was wrong with it ended up being something completely different and much less severe, so I was only charged the labor fees. Every staff member I met was so kind and friendly, and I will definitely be referring them to anyone who needs a trustworthy auto body shop.

This place helped me get a belt for my work truck when they were busy as heck. Helping me today was so appreciated. They ordered the part for me to have it delivered here. Great job guys and Pratt Home Services will be happy to have you assist with my trucks from now on.

Awesome place. My door was caught in a wind gust causing the hinge to bend. I had to bungee cord the door closed to drive it home, with the open door chime playing the entire time! I took it over to to Advanced Auto, close to when they were closing, just hoping to get a quote to fix the issue. They were quickly able to bend the door back into place and then opted not to charge me. Super honest, and great service.

My catalytic converter was recently stolen from my 2004 Honda pilot,after a couple of weeks of mechanics not being truthful,I stopped by advanced.

These guys were the kindest and most honest people I've ever met in this industry.
Ruben helped me and was truthful about the repairs I needed,even though it's not work they do.
I will bring all my future work to them.

THANKS

Great place. They ordered parts quickly and fixed my car within estimate time. I will send my car to this business for repair going forward. Trustworthy business.

These guys are great. Was so nervous the first time I left my crv with them as my own family has been the only other ppl to repair my autos..I've had regular maintenance like brakes and tires but they've also put in a starter worked on my trans and engine with serious issues. So happy to have Advanced Auto in my neighborhood, thanks guys

Finding a reputable mechanic can be hard but I consider myself very lucky to have found Advance, and I’ve been using them on both of my vehicles for over 4 years. They are always helpful and knowledgeable, and have found ways to save me money several times when they could have just gone the route that would bring them more profit. Really the best local shop I’ve ever used.

Advance Auto Center saved my holiday weekend! On the way out to NYC my blinkers stopped working. They took the car in quickly and diagnosed/solved the issue within an hour. Super friendly and helpful. Will return forever!

These guys are awesome! They price they quote you is likely what you’ll pay. There’s no hidden fees or attempts to up-sell you on stuff you don’t need. The guys there are all friendly and knowledgeable and have helped me keep my 15 year old Toyota Corolla running smoothly, even when faced with electrical issues that have stumped other places. I’m moving from the area soon and I’m really sorry I won’t have this place right down the street from me anymore. I also NEVER write reviews...but I’d give these guys 6 stars if I could, they’re the best!!

I go to Advance Auto Center for both a personal truck and a work fleet vehicle car. No matter the circumstance or vehicle, they take care of all aspects with exceptional communication, professionalism, and efficiency. They take care of fleet vehicles with a turnkey process so you do not have to lift a finger and with personal vehicles are as transparent and honest as possible. Their work is extremely impressive and the personnel at the shop is extremely friendly. Have been to both the Rockland and more frequently the Newton facility and both are exceptional providers of service! Nothing but good things to say about Advance Auto Center. 10/10 Recommend.

I hesitated on having an inspection done on my vehicle during the pandemic and I'm beyond happy I choose to come here. They were extremely professional, on time and took all the right precautions to put me at ease. Thank you for disinfecting my keys and vehicle before I entered my car and for keeping your lobby so clean and for sanitized. I will be a returning customer and will tell everyone I know. Thanks again for the awesome service!!

Great people and services, fast inspection and will come back for more

Scheduled an appointment to get a tire patched due to a small nail in the tread. The service was quick, professional, and overall a very friendly and clean environment. Not something you find too often these days!

I had previous gone to Town Fair Tire and was treated very poorly, even mocked, so I'm happy to say that I've found a new place to bring my car for any of my tire needs.

These guys were amazing and really understand customer service. Called in the morning to get a 60K checkup and they took me the same day and offered to drive me home and pick me up (they also offer free loaner cars).

They explained everything in detail and suggested I hold off on a couple of things to keep my bill at a reasonable amount. They completed the work the same day.

They were professional, friendly and prompt. I was impressed... they have earned a new customer.

I am from Montreal, my van broke down, everywhere I called to get it checked/repaired they said they were overbooked and could take up to 2 weeks to maybe get my truck ready. I walked into Advance discouraged and said I need a miracle, the clerk (sorry I’m bad with names) said in a friendly way: You are at the right place, we work miracles.

Within 15 minutes they checked my truck, found the problem , ordered the parts and said they would get on it as soon as parts arrived.

Result: next morning at 10:47 it was ready.

If I break down anywhere in the Boston area, I will get towed there for sure.

The guy’s are awesome, calm, professional and a good working team.

Thank you so much, I will send you all some pure Canadian Maple Syrup 😁

I have been using Advance Auto for the last few years for really any of my routine car maintenance needs. They are professional and provide great quality service. Would (and already have) recommended their business to others.
