Consumer Comments for Merv's Auto Repair

Merv does it right the first time. Workers are great. Merv allows you to bring parts (e.g. oil & filter) which helps keep the bill down. I've been going to Merv for over 30 years and have never had an issue. Price is fair and work is excellent.

I needed a new battery for my VW Tiguan. I went to an auto parts store that would sell me the battery but couldn't install it because it was a VW. I went to Merv's and they installed a new battery for me. Also, the cost of the battery was about $100 less that at the auto parts store. I have been a customer of Merv's for about 35 years.
