Reviews

I took my Prius to the dealership before I went here. I thought they can fix it quickly because I assumed they have the parts and it would be a couple of hundred dollars at most. But the quote was $3993.21 and they are booked out. I am sure they recommended over the top quality repair, but I’m just a regular person, I can’t spend $4000 for something looked very simple. My car is 7 years old, what’s the point of making it look like a brand new car I took my car to Shade Tree Auto. They are very nice people and understand my needs. They fixed the problems quickly with minimal cost. The dealership wanted to replace everything and recommended to paint everything to much the color. As my car is getting older, it will need more repairs. I’m satisfied with their service and will go back. I highly recommend Shade Tree Auto!Service:&nbsp;Auto body &amp; trim repair

I own a Prius, Lexus GX and an old Chevy Silverado and this shop is able to fix it all! Every time there is an issue outside of scope they call me and give me a very fair price to fix it while at the shop. I could not recommend Shade Tree Auto more. Do yourself a favor and give them a call for your next repair. Wonderful and kind people too.

For several years now Shade Tree Auto has worked on my Cadillac CTS-V.  I am only in Ithaca part time, and they have always worked around my schedule.  They are extremely friendly, I have always found their prices more than fair, and when a little thing comes up they often do it for free.  And they have just the cutest dogs!Services:&nbsp;Transmission

We have been bringing our cars and trucks to Shade Tree for years. Jack and his whole family make the experience smooth and easy, you leave feeling informed and like we got exactly what we paid for. Best in the area. Cute dogs too!Services:&nbsp;Brakes

Very satisfied and highly recommended! Jack is a true professional, and will do his best to accommodate any special requests. Honest and earnest about the services provided. I'll definitely come to Shade Tree Auto for other repairs!

I love this place. It's a family run business and Jack takes great care of us and our cars Honda and Chrysler.  The cost is always very reasonable and they have always called before doing any work to let me know what they will be doing. I trust them completely and have been very happy with the work they've done on our cars.

Great service!!! We were traveling in our motorhome and were running really hot. We called these guys in the evening, explained the problem and they said to bring it in the morning. I thought I’d have to drop it off for a while, which isn’t easy when you and your family are living in your vehicle. When I pulled in they went straight to work running tests. A new radiator was needed. They ordered the parts and said to bring it back the next morning. I got there pretty early but they were already going. I said that I was gonna Uber back to the campground and they said they would give me a ride. When they were done a few hours later, they came and picked me up. Great guys. The truck is running great, 3 weeks later. If I’m ever passing through, I’ll stop and say thanks again. P.S. If you do get stuck there, it’s the most picturesque mechanic shop I’ve ever seen.

Recently paid $950 for an exhaust manifold replacement. There are oxygen sensors in that system.  The engine light was never lit before bringing the car to them.  Immediately after picking up the car an oxygen sensor engine code appeared and lit up the check engine light. They absolutely refused to fix the issue they caused. They charged me an additionally $190 just to investigate the issue they caused. Anyone here who gives this garage a good review is being duped. I have the knowledge and skills to do my own repairs and almost always do so. I chose to use them once for a job that needed a vehicle lift which I do not own and now I regret it. If you're so delighted with Shadetree it's because you're not knowledgable enough to realize you're being ripped off. Of course they treat customers well when they will simply pay whatever bill they are told to pay.  They never found the reason for the engine light being lit. So they can't even say if it's their fault or not.   I now have to pay another shop to diagnose the issue properly so my vehicle will run properly.

If you care about your car at all, Do Not take it here!!!!!! I have never written a review for anything before but I wish someone would have warned me about them before I spent literally most of my savings on poorly done repairs by them. I needed a new engine and they got the wrong one, charged me extra and then the head gasket broke 2 days later and even though I had a warrantee they charged me to fix their mistakes knowing I had no choice. Then I called every day for a week asking them for updates and begging them to call me before they did any more work and they just wet ahead and did it anyway leaving me with a bill close to $6000. No joke. My new mechanic has pointed out how lazy they were and I am still fixing problems caused by Shadetree. Luckily I was not hurt all the times my car broke down and I has to bring it back to them. So I just want to give a warning to people who really depend on their car and don't have thousands to spend on shoddy repairs. Please be careful!!

Do not go to Shade Tree if you care about your care. I took my car there. The car was not starting. John changed the exhust and battary and charged my 900 dollars. But the car was not starting again. I towed the car and took it to someone in Lansing. The guy removed the alarm system and solved the problem. John at Shade Tree just chose to change things that allowed him to make the most money. He did not care about fixing the car. It was a terrible experience.
