Forest Auto Care & Quick Lube

Very disappointed with the work. I paid about $1,050 to replace both front axles, all 4 brakes and rotors, both front links, and the rear left caliper. After the repair, my car now shakes on the highway and especially when braking (Something it never did before). They also bent the outer metal ring, exposing the wheel bearing to dirt and debris, and somehow left an old brake pad inside the wheel under the rotor (How..), which was causing noise. I brought it back, but they brushed off my concerns instead of fixing them. I even had another mechanic inspect the vehicle, and he confirmed the mistakes they made. First and last time using this shop. I planned on becoming a regular customer, but not after this. It honestly felt like they grabbed someone off the street and handed them a toolbox. Photos attached as proof.

If I could leave a 0 star review I would. Do not get your car inspected here. Mentioned to the “boss” that I had a new battery and wasn’t sure if my car was going to pass inspection. He decided not to tell the technician (said he wasn’t paying attention to me when I asked him about my new battery) and wouldn’t you know the car failed inspection. Was told to drive my car for 50-100 miles and come back for a “discount” on my re-inspection. Came back after I had time to do the long drive and was told I had to pay 27 dollars in addition to the 37 dollars I had already paid. A simple google search will tell you that you will not have to pay again for a re-inspection (photo attached). Called the “boss” told me to take it up with the DMV. Super helpful! This guy really knows how to make and keep customers!

Tiger is a very nice owner as well as his workers. Got 4 new tires, brakes & rotors & I’m very pleased.

First experience was great the owner is a very nice guy,(Tiger)the mechanic is honest not trying to rip me off ,Fair pricing I would go there again.

I recently had the pleasure of taking my car to Forest Auto Shop in Staten Island, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From start to finish, the service was exceptional. The staff was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, taking the time to thoroughly explain the issues with my car and the best course of action. The shop itself is clean and well-organized, giving off a sense of reliability and attention to detail. They offered a fair and transparent estimate, with no hidden fees or surprises at the end. My car was ready on time, and the repairs were done right the first time, which is always a relief. What stood out most to me was the trustworthiness of the team. It’s clear they prioritize customer satisfaction over simply making a quick buck. I’ve been to many auto shops in the past, but Forest Auto Shop stands out for its honesty and quality work. Overall, I highly recommend Forest Auto Shop for anyone in the Staten Island area in need of reliable auto repair. Whether it’s routine maintenance or more complex repairs, you can trust them to take care of your car with integrity.
