Mickey's shop is small but inviting. They are busy but always accessible. I did not have to wait or make an appointment in advance. Mickey provided me with a complete list of items to be attended to in the near future. However, the most amazing thing is the following. The car's catalytic converter was defective and needed to be replaced. To my amazement, Nicole, the office manager, advised me that the catalytic converter was still under manufacturer's warranty. I never would have known this without the knowledge and honesty of the wonderful people at Mickey's. I cannot commend them enough and look forward to having all my car maintenance done at Mickey's, even though I live 30 miles away. Finding this kind of shop is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Spent extra time to diagnose the issue.  Got everything done the same day.  Finished the job for less than the estimate.  We've been customers several times now - always a good experience!

These guys are a gem in the auto repair field.
Great combination of competence, honesty and fair pricing.
We brought an old 1991 Mercedes 300TE that had some gas tank repair work done elsewhere that resulted in black exhaust smoke spewing from the tail pipe and poor performance including frequent stuttering and stalling.
Mickey's thoroughly diagnosed the issue - for free - this included several hours taking apart components to determine the root cause of the issue.
The staff presented a repair estimate with a range of repair cost with a low and high number with the high estimated stemming from the possibility of more substantial repairs needed once the work commenced.
The team was very clear about progress they were making on the car and gave us an opportunity to determine what work we wanted to perform (i.e., critical work that needed to get done versus less critical work that did not require immediate attention).
We approved the high dollar amount.  They ended up draining/cleaning the fuel tank and adding fresh fuel and replacing 3 severely clogged fuel injectors.
The car runs like a top again with performance exceeding expectations and the exhaust issue fully resolved.
For further piece of mind these guys also warrant their work and reminded us of that after we had paid - it is nice to have this insurance.  Finally, the repair cost came in way below the top end estimate.
It is so hard to find such high quality mechanics that are highly skilled, great in managing customer interaction and fairly priced.  
We would use again - we have already scheduled some regular maintenance work for our 2001 Lexus LX470

On my way to work, coolant sprung a leak. Made it to the company parking lot in a cloud of smoke, oil and coolant pooling below my car. On a recommendation from a co-worker I called Mickey, who was only a short distance away. They came, picked up the car and drove it back to the shop for me. By the end of the day, car was fixed for under $200. Simply terrific.
Mickey and his crew were punctual, professional, quick and turned a headache-inducing day into a calming one. I've found a wonderful new mechanic and I will use them again and again. Can't thank them enough.

He's honest. I just trust him. I've been to other places and they said they do things and they don't. Their price is also fair. I don't know what everybody else charges though.

They were very efficient. They're a small auto shop but everybody there knows what they are doing. They're very upfront about everything, explained everything, very friendly, get the work done and you don't have to wait all day long. I always have that experience with them.

If you're interested in building a relationship with someone you can trust your car to, Mickey is your guy.  If you want to be dealt with fairly, quickly and honestly, and if you want someone who really stands by his work, Mickey's it.  Throughout the whole process, from start to finish, Mickey has been honest and helpful, and his integrity speaks volumes.

I had a flat tire, and they didn't try to tell me that I needed to buy new tires, but rather just went about repairing the tire quickly, with a great attitude.

Do not suggest this repair shop for small services like light bulb replacement.
Although the xenon headlight bulb was expensive (about $132 ) the mechanic had the bulb out in 5 minutes.This bulb had to be ordered so I had to wait.
I would estimate replacement time for bulb also 5 min, or ten minutes tops.at most.Rear license plate bulbs in stock minimal cost; I would say they took 5 min or less to replace.Total labor time was therefore 20 minutes.Not told or given labor estimate prior to work starting.

However I was charged $72.36 in labor or about 45 minutes, as their labor charge is about $94-$95 per hour.They also added a "shop fee" of $19 and change which i was told was for "rags and other Things,everyone gets charged this"
So including the tax, my total came to a whopping $250 to replace the headlight bulb and the 2tiny license plate bulbs.

I did price the Xenon bulb with Nissan later and the bulb price was correct, but that is not my complaint.I feel the labor charge of more than 1/2 hr (or about $47 ) was excessive..so therefore the labor charge of $72 was excessive and the shop fee of just over$19 was ridiculous.So in terms of labor and shop charges I felt overcharged by at least $45 plus the tax on that,which would put the overcharge total near $48 regardless of the price of the headlight and license plate bulbs.

I Do not recommend this shop and would never use again.Probably cheaper to get this done at a Nissan dealer.Also this auto repair shop seemed to have no owner or senior person of resposibility on site.

Mickey's was the highest rated Auto Repair shop for my area on Angie's List so I made an appointment. They did not disappoint, they delivered! The work was great and reasonably priced and only took a half day not 2 days to get done. I was so happy with the work I took my wife's car a couple weeks later. Informative, quick, reasonalbly priced and friendly. Not sure whatelse you would be looking for.

.Excellent service.  .All repairs were done promptly and competently.  They were very personable, and explained everything in detail.  Pricing seemed reasonable, neither very low nor high.  (Hard to say for sure,though, since I don't have anything to compare to.)  Since the repairs were done some five months ago, the vehicle has been running well.  Overall, I am very satisfied, and happy to recommend them.

Overall the experience has been good. They’re always willing to work me into their schedule, and will call me before the work is done to tell me how much it would cost. I haven’t had any problems since my last visit.

The experience has been terrific. I don’t drive the car, so I wasn’t able to see the problem myself, and initially, they didn’t see any problem. They eventually found out what the problem was, and were able to fix it. I’m happy with their services.
Response from Mickey's Automotive
"Thanks member. We'll make sure that car is safe for all to drive."
