I needed my tires added last min and they were able to help me out so I can have my car back for work. Very professional and great customer service!

My wife and I have been so pleased every time we have brought our cars to Alberona. They are courteous. They explain everything in full detail and we total confidence in their work. We know we are getting treated fairly.

Since the first review, I've had the Mercedes back for a timing belt, the dealer wanted major $$$$, Joe came through again at a fraction of the cost.

I just took my 2009 Toyota Camry to Joe last week, replaced the rear struts and a wheel bearing. Toyota wanted over twice the price!

Joe is honest, knowledgeable, and fast! Very good service at very reasonable prices.

I am very disappointed in this place. Came here because of a constant squeak in my car. Another mechanic (which I should have gone to in the first place) said it was a bearing making the noise. This place told me that I needed two back tires -- and I believed them. Well, the squeak is still there -- and even louder! I also called them about another problem, but they never returned my call. I am highly disappointed in this place because it was recommended my friends. By the way, the owner is also a bit abrupt with his customers.

Joe is the best. One of the only mechanics I would ever trust with my car besides my dad. If you want something done right without being gouged on the price, go to Alberona

I have only high praise for the Alberona Auto Clinic. The owner is honest and straightforward. You don't have to worry about getting work done that you don't need.

Went there for an oil change , I was in and out in 15 mins. Very professional and humble guys there. If you're around Verona, you should stop by here instead of Pep boys or any of those chain auto shops. Great service!

I have been bringing my car to Alberona now for as long as I've owned one. Joe is honest, reliable, and fairly priced, and I would recommend his shop to anyone. I live in Brooklyn now but STILL bring my car to Alberona because there is no better mechanic around!

I have been bringing my car(s) here for 24 years, and so have my friends and family. Joe is the most honest and trustworthy person you'll ever meet. He and his guys are excellent mechanics and do great work. Joe has been in business in our community for 33 years.

I'm thinking he has been doing a great job repairing our cars since before the guy who wrote the comment below was born.

If you're looking for a reliable and honest mechanic, go to Alberona Auto.

BEWARE! Do not bring your car here! Brought my car in for brake pad replacement and provided my own top of the line bosch brake pads. After the brake job was done my car just shakes so much when I break. Mind you, my car has barely 20k miles and did not have the problem prior to the brake job. They seemed to have messed up my rotors, but when I went back to them they refused to check it out and said 'we did what you asked us to do' and blamed it on the 'heat transfer from the new brakes' (since I provided them). Don't even bother to call them because 90% of the time they

My car broke down driving home out of Newark on Interstate 280 after after a long day of work, which is a nightmare in itself. Had my car towed to a local shop that I have always used in the past...however the nightmare continued as they had my car for days, telling me they could find nothing wrong. They charged me 107 bucks, and when I picked it up my dashboard warning lights were still lit up like a Christmas tree.

Angry and frustrated I brought my car Alberona. Pretty sure I spoke with the owner, and he was great. Called me within a few hours told me they located the problem but they had to

Love the staff. Very honest and fair pricing. So glad a friend told me to go see them for a fix the dealer wanted a blank check to diagnose. 2 years later I am still running smooth.

Very reliable, honest service at fair prices. Straight-forward about what they can do, no BS. For over 15 years I have found their service and support top notch. No sugar-coating.

These guys are seriously the best mechanics I've ever dealt with. They always make time for you, even if their schedule is packed...they'll stay late just to get the job done. Also, they've let me order my own parts - just to prove they're not trying to make extra money off the deal. I own a Mercedes, so it helps that they don't charge me an arm and a leg like the dealership.
Even if I move out of Verona I'll likely still bring my car here.

One of the best. I've searched for years but finally got got my place. Honest, efficient, friendly. Unlike many mechanics that act like they're doing you a favor as you fork over another $700+ to them , Joe DeFinis actually shows respect for his customers, explains things and simply runs a good business.

We have been bringing our cars here for quite a long time, and have recommended Alberona Auto Clinic to friends and relatives. We are extremely satisfied with the quality of the work and the overall service and responsiveness of Joe and his staff. Joe stands behind his work, and is as honest and dedicated as they come. Prices are reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the work.
