Epic Auto Care

Took in my 98 RAV4 for a timing belt replacement and a leaking coolant issue. Mechanic who was working on it called me to tell me that the leaking issue was just the case of the hoses not being tightened all the way and that since the thermostat and hoses were practically new (they were) the cost would be considerably less than the quoted price.

I was on a road trip to upstate, NY when I ran into alternator problems in NJ. I was new to the area and didn't know where to take my Nissan Altima 05 for repair. I googled auto repair shops in NJ including Nissan, but the prices were crazy. It costs $688+ to replace alternator for a 4 cyl. I found Epic and read the reviews since it was hard to trust just any auto repair I had little knowledge of. One review explained my exact problem and mentioned great satisfaction in service received. So, I called Epic Auto and was told they were booked for the day, but I insisted that I needed to get the car fixed and the shop owner said he will try and fit me in for that same day, but the part had to be ordered and hopefully, a spot became available.

To make it short, the shop keeper personally took the challenge up himself and ran a diagnostic the morning and said the alternator was pushing less voltage and would go bad eventually, so I went ahead and had it replaced. I got a rental which Epic helped arrange. I did what I had to do for the day, and returned when they said the job would be completed (4/5pm). I am pleased to say that I was completely satisfied with the great job done on my car.

After the alternator replacement, I drove another 14hrs return trip to MD and everything went smooth. It cost me far less than the other places I quoted about $370 with tax. If I leave MD and run into car trouble, hopefully not though, But will be going back to Epic auto NJ. :) great service and price. Reviews are worth reading before finding a good place. Epic way to go!
Thanks!

Well I guess first off I own a Audi A3, a car that many individuals don't even dear to touch. But at EpicAutoCare thats no problem. I didn't have something crazy done to may car I only had a Magnaflow Exhaust system put in, just cause I didn't know how they operated or whether they were going to do a great job. Now I know that they're professional and have great workmanship. I even ran into a problem where i need a part for my car and they ordered it and install everything the someday. Their mechanic crew are really cool dudes. They're a bunch or car guys and get you. I even had one guy ask me if the part came in yet. Showing me how ambitious they were to do my install, which i really liked.Im a type of guy that does heavy amount of car mods to his car and now i know where to go to get all my work done at. OH Yea btw there prices are Great its just the right price. Not expensive and not too cheap that you're questioning things.

Epic Auto Care is Epic! These guys undoubtedly are the best especially when you don't know much about the insides of a car - very trustworthy, reliable & professional. Another auto place quoted me $775 to change an alternator - Epic tested and told me I dont need to change anything - $15. Amazing!

This isn't your typical dirty garage. This is a modern, clean facility with great prices. The mechanics working there really know their stuff. Lucky for me one of the mechanics owns a Subaru which I also own so it gives me confidence that he knows the car.
