Would've rated it a zero if I could. My check engine light went on, so I took it in to Meineke on Upper Front Street in Binghamton because I didn't need an appointment to get in ...

They told me I needed work done when I didn't!!! 4/18/2012

Would've rated it a zero if I could. My check engine light went on, so I took it in to Meineke on Upper Front Street in Binghamton because I didn't need an appointment to get in there. They called me back and said I had a leaky radiator and needed a new one. Quoted me at $420. They also went over a whole other list of things that they said I needed. I went with my gut feeling and called up a place that I trust and made an appointment for a few days later and just kept a close eye on my car in the meantime. When the guys at the reputable place checked it out, there was NOTHING WRONG WITH IT!! They pressure tested my radiator and saw absolutely no signs of leakage!! They spent a decent amount of time looking over it because I had told them that Meineke said it was leaking. Absolutely ridiculous!! I WILL NEVER GO BACK HERE! I'm glad I went with my gut. That would have been a total rip off!! On another note, it's also horrible that you have to wait for a good 2 hours or so just for a oil change. Pros: null Cons: null more

Rip Off Joint! 10/25/2011

I would not go back here at all. more

Don't bother servicing your car at this place 10/8/2011

I wish I could give a 0 star but this site won't let me. more

And they call themselves a "CAR CARE" center? 8/12/2011

OMG! Take your car elsewhere!! This "car care" center in Vestal NY is TERRIBLE! They outwardly lie to you with a smile on their faces! I took my van here for new struts. I usually don't take my car here....but, they gave me the lowest estimate for the struts. The next week I took my van in for a New York State inspection. My van didn't pass the inspection! The second service centrer said it needed new struts!!!!!! Yes, you're reading that correctly! The Meineke Car Care Center DID NOT replace the struts on my van. They did charge me for the "service"!! What a shock!! They do smile ...and talk nicely to you...and at the same time they screw ya! This "car care" center gets a rating of 0 (zero). So glad my van was due for it's inspection!!! more

rip off 4/20/2011

Don't ever fall for their NYS inspection "discount coupon". They never pass anyone without telling you that you need hundreds of dollars in repairs. The one guy told me I needed a new wheel bearing before they could pass my car. I told him I had a new one put on 2 months prior. He started stumbling over his words but still refused to pass my car, insisting that I must have gotten a faulty hub. Beware of this place. Other people I know have said the same thing. more

This place will rob you blind- get a quote then save yourself hundreds of dollars elsewhere... NOT RECOMMENDED 12/29/2007

I've had work done there before. Recently I asked for a quote then compared it to one I got from Teeds in Endicott, NY. There was a difference of about $300. Today, I went and asked if they could remove and replace a rear wheel bearing on an axle that I had with me and all the parts I needed. I had to wait almost an hour for one of the shop guys to return to the shop only to be told that they could do it, and their solution to "pressing" the new wheel bearing on to the axle was to cut a piece of exhaust pipe which they would use to pound it into place with. The cost for this: $75. I also got a quote for new struts for my wife's Cougar. $363.83. cost for the struts: $90.99 each, labor $94.95. The owner seems nice enough, but it's all a show. If you don't believe that they are gouging unsuspecting customers, call around for other quotes and you'll see that this place will rob you blind if you let them! I have nothing to gain except the satisfaction that I may help someone else keep their hard earned money. Pros: Clean bathroom Cons: You're going to pay through the nose for any work they do! It makes me sick to think of the people they take advantage of every day more
