They were professional, honest and affordable. Kind and very nice to us considering we suffered a blowout on the turnpike. They stayed later to help me and that made all the difference. Will use them from now on. My new mechanics. Service: Tires

Wow! This business is fantastic. DJ was professional, honest and so thorough. He explained everything for this senior woman who knows very little about cars and now my old Toyota is running like a top. Prices are not cheap but fair and I've learned you get what you pay for. You can trust three star and that's saying a lot!

Charged me $335 for an estimate never heard of that before total rip-off, 100 at dealship is the most i payed. Their estimate was $700 higher than somebody else's had it towed there. Also took them 4 or 5 days just to get the estimate. It was going to take them another week to fix it, so they charge me storage fees because they were too slow to fix it and try to blame me.

The other shop pick the car up fixed it the next day and I picked it up. They knew I was out of state and took advantage of the situation knowing that I couldn't fight them over the $335 for an estimate. They said they had to push the car 15 ft, the car ran I know because I drove it into the parking space. I was down there at my grandmother's funeral and had to rush home to go to my sister's funeral in Boston.

Which I explained to them so they couldn't get it fixed and I took a train home to my sister's funeral. I totally understaand business first people second.so sad. Says storage right on my receipt I can send you a copy also you never towed my vehicle I can also send you the copy of the receipt with all the parts same exact parts i have quote that you gave me.

I moved here 3 years ago and this is the only place I go to. Dj knows a lot about tires and gives great suggestions. He even notices mistakes other tire shops makes. He is is very helpful and explains work very well. Lew the owner is a great master mechanic. He figures out the issues with cars other shops can't. I have even seen another local shop come to him for help. Chris and Tony are great mechanics that know what they are doing and get it done fast and right the first time. Three star auto is the best place to get your car serviced and checked

When your check engine light is on and the car sounds like a truck you need to seek help! That is what we did and I am happy to say we went to the right place. Brought in the car and met with DJ, one of the nicest mechanics I have ever met. He was honest and up front about all the work the car needed and the cost. He explained he needed to keep the car for a week to get things ordered, replaced and fixed properly. As promised it was done. Thanks so much for your kind service, my family will be back to get our work done at the Shell station with DJ! thank you Ann and Rob Standard

Came in for no headlights around 3pm, because I saw the reviews on Google. Was definitely not disappointed! Best electrician in the county, the man loves what he does and it shows. He treated my issue like a puzzle that needed solving, and did not give up until he solved it. Was back on the road before sundown, thank you sir for having passion for what you do. Your attitude towards my issue showed a quality human being. Highly recommend this place to anyone needing services, A+.

As usual for my parents over the years and now me, the service is excellent. It should be Four Stars rather than just Three Stars. Service: General repairs & maintenance

I've been coming to Three Star Auto Service for a little over a year. I was waiting to post my review after I've been there several times. I have to say after several visits I'm very pleased with their professionalism and honest service. One of the things that I like the most is they perform exactly the work that you've discussed with them and agreed to.

It's very hard to find and honest professional shop to take your car nowadays. I feel confident in personally recommending Three Star Auto Service if you have any service needs.

My Lexus is a 1992 model and a 29 years old car. The car is still charming and runs well. Because of its old age, once in a while it needs maintenance and to have problems fixed. My car's mechanic is Three Star Auto Service's Chris. Chris has been taking care of my Lexus for many years, and every time the car was brought to Chris, its problems would be fixed.

I plan to keep my car as long as Chris is my mechanic. I have no doubt that Chris is a first-class mechanic who has a very high exceptional professional skill and ability to fix any car's problems. His diagnosis has always been quick & accurate. The price for repair was always reasonable and the workmanship is superb. After so many years, I find Chris a diligent, friendly, honest, and reliable person. I feel very confident and happy to have Chris taking care of my car.

Took my car here to fix a flat with a nail in it. Told them which tire it was. Called several hours later to get an update only to be told there was no nail. Asked them to check the other tire. They told me I told them it was the one they checked. Why would I say it was different then the one that needed to be fixed? Charged me for both tires. Didn't appreciate having to pay for two tires when it was their mistake.

Impressive place to have your vehicle serviced. I continue to go to Three Star because I trust the mechanics and the quality of the work they do. Service: General repairs & maintenance

Hands down the best car service place in NJ. Even after moving I still drive out of my way to go here. Their prices are an par or better than anywhere else. Most importantly, they are honest and direct. If that wasn't enough, they are also really fast what a repair is needed. Highly recommended. The guy I dealt with was Chris and he's a true professional (they all are but he's exceptional). I don't know much about cars so it's nice to have a place that I can trust with workers who are both reliable and friendly.

I have been taking my car to Three Star Auto over the years and the experience has been great. The employees take care of your automobile when servicing and also the work is completed in a timely fashion. The pricing is also fabulous. Another reason for me bringing my BMW X3 to Three Star is the honesty of the employees when diagnosing issues. I just had an oil leak in my SUV and it turned out to be one of the front struts going bad. Again, an honest assessment from the employees and a fair price to repair.

I had an oil change and two front struts replaced and the price was fantastic. Honestly I don't think I could have done it cheaper doing the repairs myself. It is also hard to find a local garage to repair an import vehicle such as an BMW X3. I highly recommend Three Star Auto for all your vehicle repairs.

My grandson visited and had alignment issues. Twice other "tire" places tried to correct the problem. Three star fixed it, plus squeezed him in because he had to go back to college. I highly recommend everyone bring their cars here for service.

Serviced my Acura at this place. They were able to rebuild my steering wheel pump. Saved me some $. You cannot find anyone around who would be comfortable doing such thing. Nowadays, all they know is how to unscrew one assembly and replace it by a new one, passing the high cost over to the customer. The shop is very clean. Lew is very knowledgeable and always present. Personalized service at this shop! Very recommended.

Very upset with this place. I have Honda Civic 2010 and I had my right front tire brake pad fall off its rotor. Walked into their service via AAA, and had both front tires brake pad & rotor replaced and all this was about a year ago. It turns out that my left front tire brake pad almost fell off and had to replace it this Monday. This is absolutely unacceptable as I had paid them for 2 front brake pads to be replaced and it seems they only had replaced the one that was broken and did not bother touching the other (left) tire brake pad.

I could have gotten into accident and possibly have died. I will be contacting FTC and other government oversight organization along with a combination of two receipts: the receipt from this place indicating that the repair was indeed for 2 brake pads and the receipt from other auto shop I had visited Monday indicating that the above brake pad needed to be changed again.

Three star auto is the best place to take your Mercedes. Lew and his team are the best in town. I took my Mercedes for some work and the job came out perfect. I'm glad I found them, they were literally 5 mins away from me.

There is not enough good to say about Three Star. I'm a bit of a mechanic myself but there are things I can't do or don't have time to and I've been through a dozen bad "pro mechanics." Recently my weekend car (pride and joy), my Mercedes CL500 AMG developed a leak at the valve cover gaskets. Then. a dreaded electrical issue. I had considered a Mercedes specialist but after talking to Lou he assured me he could handle both issues. Well, not only did they do a stellar job but the price was extremely fair. I have my baby back and I'm a happy man! Trust is a hard thing to come by and they've earned it. Thanks again guys!

Three Star Auto is as good as it gets. I only trust Lew and Chris to take care of my truck. They are honest, considerate, and extremely knowledgeable. I always appreciate the fact that Chris gives me a heads up on future repairs I may need and advises me on when they should be taken care of. It adds that layer of comfort and security when I get behind the wheel because I know that someone took the extra time to ensure my vehicle was safe. I highly recommend Three Star Auto to anyone.

I was very impressed by the cleanliness of this station when I first arrived. Then I saw the customer commitment sign which made me feel that I was in a good place. And to top it off, on the day of my appointment I was greeted and taken care of in a way that proved they are more than just words - it was a great experience who truly care and it shows!

Pulled in here after my car got bashed by a piece of metal debris on the NJ Turnpike. The debris had knocked my undercarriage loose. My fiance wanted to secure the undercarriage himself so we could quickly be on our way. An employee came right over, loaned us some zip ties, and we were in and out (and back on the road!) within ten minutes. We appreciate his willingness to supply us with some materials for free. Thanks for looking out for us, Three Star!

This place is wonderful. We (bigly pregnant self, husband, and 3 year old) were driving from DC to Boston because my mom had died and the memorial service was the next morning (so basically we had a lot going on) and somewhere in New Jersey, a state we are not familiar with at all, our car started sputtering and acting weirdly. I googled the closest place to go, and this was it.

They were very busy but sympathetic to our plight and spent the next 1.5 hours troubleshooting. They couldn't do a permanent fix as that would take a few days and we needed to get to Boston asap, so they didn't even charge us anything! Definitely a blessing during a challenging time.

These guys are the best. I had a problem with my air conditioner. After they fixed it there was another problem, air conditioner related but it had nothing to do with what they fixed. It had more to do with the age of the car. they spent two hours fixing it while I waited and refused to take additional payment--even though they deserved it. I will use these guys again and again.

Trusted my C7 Vette installation with Lew and Chris. They did an awesome job and took care of my baby today! This place is the best shop in NJ. They care, they listen and they complete the job on time and efficiently. Every car is treated like their own.

Stop searching. You've found it. Auto shops don't get better than this. Lew is one of the kindest and most professional shop owners I've ever had the pleasure of doing business with. His team was extremely diligent with diagnosing and correcting the issue, and Lew was excellent about keeping us informed of the progress and thoroughly explaining their findings along the way.

The total shop bill from Three Star Auto Service ended up being approximately one-fifth of the quoted price given by the dealership after they'd had a chance to inspect the car. I can't thank Lew and his team enough for taking care of our mechanical issues! If every town in America had a shop like this, the ubiquitous fear of taking a car into the mechanic would be abolished for good!

So my used car was acting up again. This time is was a scraping noise whenever I turned to the right. Chris was able to fix it no problems. No more noises. Well, this issue was nothing compared to what they had to do to my car last time! I think my used car is finally where it should be in terms or maintenance for now. I am so thankful for 3 Star Auto. I feel like I can't trust anyone else anymore. They're the best!

Ran into an emergency with my car while visiting a relative in NJ. They squeezed me in on New Year's Day, diagnosed the issue and replaced the part. Had a long drive home so this was much appreciated. My parents have been using this station for all their car needs since 1988 and are very pleased with their service. Thanks again!

Three Star Auto is the best auto repair in Middlesex County! Lew, the owner, is the best! Honest and trustworthy. He and Chris take the time to explain what needs to be done to your car. Other places may "appear" to be less expensive, but please compare what you are actually getting. I would much rather support a local business, especially one that has been around for over 35 years! Have been taking my car there for years and never disappointed. Thanks!

Went again & was GLAD I did. Very good service. I compared apples to apples & it turns out they were less expensive than the dealer. 1 - Battery was cheaper with the dealer by only $20. But it was not a Delco. (It was a cheaper one) 2 - Brakes. THIS IS BIG. (here I thought the savings was huge) Turns out, I had the rotors resurfaced. NOT replaced. Should have got new instead. Live & Learn. ( I knew it) Anyway, I'll be here again. They won me over! Good service, Good staff, & competitive prices.

Edited Review: I am giving 4 Stars based on the amazing customer service the owner Lew gives. I went into Three Star when I hit a pothole and wrecked my tire. I always had great service at the gas station and didn't really know any other place to go, so I went here. Beyond the pothole damaged tire, an additional tire had a slow leak. I decided to buy a pair of tires to replace the one I lost to the pothole and the one with the slow leak.

There was a small misunderstanding with which tires to replace, however when the owner Lew found out about this, he personally called me on a weekend to remedy the situation. I learned a few lessons from my experience at Three Star Auto, chalk the tires you want changed and always ask for Lew if you are unsatisfied with the work performed on your vehicle. He will go above and beyond to ensure that you are treated fairly and are pleased with the work done on your car.
