Does anyone know of a good mechanic in the Somerville area? My car is acting up again and I'd like to take her to someone reasonably priced, and overall good - or better yet great - mechanic.

Thanks!

A co-worker raves about Streetwise, how great they are with communication and prices, very helpful and friendly. I'm planning on going next time I need a garage.

That's where I take my car. I really like them and trust them.

I have been going to Frank at Hillside for years (I had a Hyundai, too). He's great--honest, patient and easy to work with. He knows his customers, and I would recommend him to anyone.

What make?
For Hondas, I unreservedly recommend Honda House on Prospect.

I've not owned anything else since I've lived up here.

Oy. That's Hondar House. Yes, with an extra "R", which isn't pronounced. :)

i think it used to be "honda house" and then there were trademark issues. or something.

Nothing new - a '93 accord.

I'm quite fond of it...

If you're willing to go to Malden (just 5 minutes past assemly square), there's a great place called Dalton's Gulf on the Fellsway.

Family owned for like 50 years, the owner AND the mechanics are great. I took my new car there for oil changes, etc, and we just took my boyfriend's car there.

As a reference, his car wouldn't shift into gear...they could've lied and replaced a bunch of things, but they repaired something on the clutch for like $25.

check them out 781-324-9665

I bought my Jetta here, based on earlier recommendations seen in [livejournal.com profile] davis_square:

ABJ Auto Repair
(617) 625-6632
91 Marshall St
Somerville, MA 02145

They did a great job, were friendly and (seemed) honest.

Er, that would be brought, not bought.

Repair, not purchase. :)
