I recently took my 2011 RAV4 to Essex Country Auto Repair for a routine service, and I’m very pleased with the experience. The team was friendly, professional, and efficient, getting me in and out quickly. They took the time to explain what they were doing, and the cost was fair. My car is running smoothly, and I’ll definitely be back for future maintenance. Highly recommend. Read More

I recently moved to the Peabody area and received what seemed to be an inflated quote from my local car dealership for work on my front brakes. As a woman with limited knowledge, I wanted to be sure not to overpay, so I called a few places and East Coast Auto Repair offered to check my car out the next morning, which worked great for me. (I was right about the high quote from the dealership by almost $400.) I asked the person who greeted me at the shop if they had time to complete a thorough check of the car while they had it for my brakes and they did. When completed, their review included the work on the brakes and only the usual maintenance type things with no pressure for any additional, or possible unnecessary work. In fact, they appreciated my need to control my expenses and made suggestions on how I could get the most out of my car. The people working there were polite, knowledgeable and honest. They deserve their high ratings and I am happy to be able to have found this except Read More

This shop came up several times while searching for a reliable & honest shop to work on my Taurus SHO. After several consultations with friends working in small 1 bay repair shops, I decided to go speak with Essex County Auto Repair about the problems I was having. They seemed knowledgeable and able to work on this very involved repair. The service was exceptional, highlighting the mechanic's honesty, thoroughness, and ability to explain repairs clearly, making me feel confident in the work done on my vehicle. I would highly recommend Essex County Auto Repair and their excellent work. At the time of this review the repairs have been done since January 14, 2025 and I am extremely happy with the repair work done. Read More

Took my Corvette to Herb Chambers 3 times for the engine misfiring..After the 3rd visit they told me it was the transmission and to take it to a transmission mechanic in Wakefield. Within 1 hr the transmission place told me it was fine. Took it to essex County auto repair. They did a tune up in one day. Car runs like new and they did it at a excellent price. The dealership should be embarrassed,they couldn't fix the car. They had it for 3 weeks.. can't say enough about essex, thank u for fixing my car. Read More

At the time, I was tight on money and wouldn't you believe it; they offered a payment plan that worked for me. They even offer an auto credit program that can give you the loan to get the repairs done. They will inform you every step of what needs to be repaired or if you want to hold off for whatever reason. I do recommend Essex County Auto Repair to everyone!! Read More

You're always in the loop, and help you and them to make a workable plan to fit your needs. I've had power steering issues , and brake issues. I never have much money, so the fact that they take that into consideration is tops with me! They won't do unessessary work, yet they won't let you drive away if your car isn't road worthy. They care about people and are very patient with them Thanks to Anthony, Will, and I believe, Brian. I have, and I still will recommend them to take care of your car and YOU! 👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read More

I asked for an assessment of my rear brakes. They affirmed the need for replacement and then carefully checked to determine whether anything could be ‘saved’. They checked out the rest of the undercarriage and noted a few places where there would be future needs - BUT there was no high pressure sales. They provided a loner car; completed the repair the next day; and sent me away as a VERY SATISFIED customer. I highly recommend their work, their excellent customer service, and their honest pricing.

Over the past two years my truck has been experiencing sudden engine power interruptions and intermittent starting issues. After going to Chevy multiple times, two typically reputable mechanics and spending over $1000 on starter & battery replacements and ground investigations I was at my wits end. Not to mention being without a vehicle formy long commute to work everyday. I decided to research local repair shops. Essex County Auto Repair is excellent at troubleshooting and reading diagnostic code. The staff took the time to investigate the issues and narrowed the issue down to a faulty ignition switch causing the intermittent starting issues and corrosion in the fuse box creating the sudden engine failure issues. For under $1000 my truck is repaired and I am more than satisfied with the quality of service. Thank you Essex County Auto Repair for your excellent service! Read More

I brought my car to Essex County Auto Repair because I was told that I might be having transmission issues. I had already gone to another mechanic first, and honestly, I left feeling like they were just trying to take my money. From the moment I arrived, the experience was completely different. Anthony took the time to explain everything in detail and walked me through what was actually going on with my car. You can genuinely feel the honesty, no pressure, no scare tactics, just clear and professional communication. It turned out it was NOT a transmission issue at all, which saved me a lot of money. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for honesty, knowledge, and great service. Read More

Had springs and shocks replaced on all four corners of my 2013 Lincoln MKS, all genuine Ford parts, no cheap knockoffs. They being busy, were upfront with telling me it may be more than a day in completion of the job but with the loaner they offered, it was no problem. Not my first time with this company, won’t be the last. Highly recommended. Read More
