Sam is always really good to me. He has been from the beginning. He never over charges, in fact sometimes undercharges. He's honest, straightforward, helpful, reliable, everything you'd want in A mechanic / auto specialist. Take your car to him because he's great! But don't take your car to him too often because I don't want him to be too busy to take my car when I need him!

I have been going to Sam for all my automotive service needs for 8 years now (2007 to present day 2015). The first time I stepped in his shop I told him I was fascinated with working on cars but had no idea where to start. He took a wrench and walked me through how to do an oil change, how to check all the fluids on my car, and what things to keep an eye out for that will wear-and-tear. There have been times where I have called him where I was stuck at home with no idea how to fix the mess I created, and each time Sam has ... read more

Its hard to find a trust-worthy mechanic and thank God I did! Sam has worked on my cars numerous amounts of time and each time has come back to me in great condition! Sam's one saying that got me coming back is " I would never use anything I wouldnt use on my own cars." Thank you Sam and Kit for taking care of my car problems!

I've been coming to Sam for over 6 years now. In fact everyone in my family trusts him with our cars. We've gotten everything done from oil changes to breaks to engine swaps here and never had a problem. His prices are more than fair and he does excellent work. When it comes to cars, he's our guy. I've never had a negative experience here and I've never seen an unhappy customer here either. Every time I go in he does a quick routine inspection for me. Last time I was there getting an oil change, Sam and his mechanic told m... read more

I can't say enough good things about the service I received at Abc Motor. Sam and his staff are honest, professional, and courteous. Their prices are also very reasonable. I've been to a number of other shops in the city, and these guys are the best. Whether I've needed routine maintenance, or bigger repairs, these guys have been able to get the job done in a timely and cost-efficient manner. I'll be bringing my business back.

This is THE place to bring your car! Sam is the BEST! I have a 23 year old car (1991 VW Fox) and it suddenly died on me. Okay, so it's an old car but I have owned it since it was new, it's paid for and it is a good second car for me and my partner. I wasn't ready to let go of it yet but I knew that this problem could result in the final death certificate of the car. I didn't have a mechanic to take it to and a friend told me about ABC Motor and Sam....So I had the car towed there and Sam got started on it. Sam is one of th... read more

You will not find another shop so honest or helpful. Just like Elena said in a past review, Sam always takes me through what he does with my car before and after he does anything. I don't know anything about cars, so it's nice to have a safe place to go to where I know I won't be overcharged or charged any unknown or questionable fees (unlike the dealerships that almost always do that...). He always gets the job done right, and quickly, then explains everything to me or my big brother who actually knows a lot about cars and ... read more

Sam is a pleasure to deal with. Honest, reliable and a shop that takes pride in their work. The car is worked on efficiently and ready as promised. Performed a brake pad, rotor replacement, distributor replacement, radiator replacement (all separate occasions). Sam consulted me on the make of parts he would be using before he went ahead and did the work. This is important - I prefer using top quality pads and rotors on my car, rather than cheap aftermarket versions of the parts. He is always very thorough on explaining wha... read more

Found ABC Motor through a recommendation. It was a little further than I wanted to go to get my car checked out, but I'm so glad I did! Sam was great! My check engine light had been on for a while and I was finally getting it looked at. Sam told me what was wrong and gave me an estimate. Said he could have it done in about 2-2.5 hours. I ended up going to get brunch and coming back to fixed car! The great thing about Sam is that he took his time to show me what he did. He showed the part from my car that he replaced and sho... read more
