Very fair and thorough. Priced competitively . Friendly service. Have been using their services for about twenty years. Would not go anywhere else.

They have fair prices and the customer service is great, they are very honest and refer you to great places if needed. Especially if you are a female they don’t take advantage of that.

Had a great experience with Northern Auto. They have a great staff and great customer service. The past two days they assisted me with putting air in my tires and said that I probably had a slow leak. I brought it in this and that's what it was. Jay explained everything to me thoroughly and got me and my tire taken care of right away.

So nice to find an automotive place that isn't out to charge you ridiculous amounts and swindle you. Jeff was so very helpful and took care of us right away. We were stranded after driving from NJ and had run over a truck tire in busy traffic when some things got disconnected underneath the car and it was making rattling noises. Jeff made sure everything was connected and in working condition so we can make the trip back. Another woman there also gave high praises about this garage. We were so thankful for this place and Jeff. Great service!! Thank you!!

Jeff and his staff at Northern Auto are very professional, friendly, knowledgeable respectful and efficient. I have been taking my vehicles to him for many years now and will continue to do so in the future. When repairs are needed he explains it to me in terms that I can understand. He is honest and his prices are very reasonable. Veterans are welcome. I recommend him to all my family and friends. He is very trustworthy and will help you in any way he can. I trust him and seek advice from him when needed. Five star all the way!
