Reviews
Bob and his team are fantastic. I broke a bolt doing my own brake job, went down to Long Hill Auto at 5:30 on a Friday and they went above and beyond to help me out. Removed the broken bolt and found a replacement bolt to allow me to finish the job. They didn't need to do any of this, but they chose to be a huge help. I will definitely return to this place, very quality people. Thanks again! Christopher Carlo, 11/16/2024 |
