Awesome crew! I just bought my first car this summer from a used car dealer and am honestly pretty ignorant when it comes to cars. So imagine my distress when my ford suddenly wouldn't start one day this winter, all lights blaring on the dash. The folks at Harry J Smith still treated me with the utmost respect and didn't hesitate to explain the details to me in a very non-judgemental way.
It can sometimes be hard for women who aren't experts to find a mechanic, but they were really great to me, very prompt and transparent with what they were doing to the car, and extremely reasonable pricing. I worked mostly with Josh, who called daily with updates, made sure I knew what was going on at all times, and was polite and professional. All in all, a great experience, and I've been recommending them to everyone I know since.

Honest excellent service. Garage is clean well organized, staff are very knowledgeable. Brought 2 vehicles for an inspection. One failed due to a leaking caliper as a mechanic myself and never going there I took the vehicle home did it myself. The caliper was definitely leaking I'm extremely happy they found it. I brought my other vehicle back for an alignment I have complete faith to expect nothing but the best!

The place where locals go for excellent work that your car or truck actually needs! Fast and amiable, truthful, female-friendly. Call ahead for service. I've been going here for almost thirty years and they've never steered me wrong. I've always been treated respectfully and they appreciate my business.

Going to get a car inspected can cause a lot of anxiety about repairs. We brought our car in and they were able to get it in before our appointment even started. They were very friendly and honest. This is the first time in my life I was able to get an inspection without needing any work done. There's a reason they have been in business over 100 years. Highly recommend!

I was in a bind when it came time to get my car inspected. VIP quoted me $575 for fixes to pass inspection. However, I didn't trust them so I came here. They quoted me $550 for more fixes than VIP would have made! Although they were busy all week, I needed it fixed the next day due to travel for work. Josh was super nice and squeezed me in for the following morning, despite having to rearrange their schedule. I recommend coming here and I'll definitely be back again!

Great experience! They were really friendly and communicative about what they were going to do, making sure I was in the loop. They seemed to have lots of time flexibility when I called in, and I was in and out within about 30 minutes! Again, super friendly, and very reasonable cost for the service I needed. Also PS to Colby students, they will come to campus and check your car in the lot/bring it down to their garage themselves if you need work done!
