Thanks Scott, as always , for the impeccable service and honest advice! ( and yes, having Guiness, the guest "shop dog" there was such a bonus. ) Great dog. Always great service!

I have been coming to Scott for over 25 years. He never makes you feel like you are clueless. There is a comfort and trust level not felt in many other places. In fact, I trust him with my daughter's car. Need I say more?

Every time I get into my car I think how grateful I am for Jenkinstown Motors for keeping me safe and sound. Scott was so helpful and understanding and a pleasure to work with. I needed some major repair work done on my Honda Element last year and he came highly recommended. With a new engine and new brakes. It feels like a new car again! After traveling over 5,000 miles, its still driving exceptionally well. Thanks Scott and all the mechanics who worked on my Honda!

I have been going to Scott for almost 26 years. He has always provided thoughtful, honest service. He has never done anything without consulting me; he has offered options for repair when appropriate. He always makes sure that the job is done correctly and he always stands behind his work. He is the go-to guy for car repairs in the New Paltz area.

Scott is up there with the best car service experience I've ever had in 50 years of dealing with mechanics.

Wouldn't go anywhere else! Scott keeps my 16-year-old Honda running smoothly, picks up the car from my house and drops off a loaner -- at no charge!

So glad we finally found Scott and his crew! I'm never taking my car anywhere else. Not only are they top notch and absolutely trustworthy, they offer amazing customer service (including pick up and drop off with your kids in tow so you don't have to sit there and wait with little ones) They are just great and I can't say enough- absolutely love theys guys!

Scott saved us with a repair on our car during a weekend getaway. Service and pricing are honest and reliable.
Super friendly service and trustworthy.

Honest, reliable, knowledgeable, dependable, reasonable service.
One does not see this kind of service and expertise today.
Scott and company should be an example to the rest of the auto repair industry.

This is the absolutely best mechanic shop I ever hope to find. They get it right; they are thorough, incredibly helpful AND really smart and well organized. Seriously, you could not ask for more and it's also the cleanest shop I've ever seen!

Trustworthy, Kind mechanic. Scott is a great person, who does timely work, and will really make sure you understand what is happening to your car, why, and will talk through how to get the most out of your money.
Example- I broke down in the middle of Virginia- Brakes stuck. Scott talked me through what the problem was, and then helped me figure out if a different shop could do the job effectively, and talked me through the pricing- just because I am a customer. He knew he would not get the job, but gave me sound advice regardless.
Great mechanic, straight up.

Scott Cullen is the best, in terms of knowledge, integrity and professionalism. He's also extremely pleasant, and the work is always done when he says it will be. He has kept my elderly Honda fit and chugging along for years. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else for car service.

I've been bringing my Honda and my Subarus to Scott for the past couple of years now. In short, he provides straight-up customer service from the good ol' days. Great for your regular maintenance visits, since they check your car for possible issues in advance, without up-selling or pressuring you. Standard repairs, inspections and, yes, tire service, too.
Trust your mechanic? Well, I sure trust Scott and his crew. Highly recommend.

I drove 500 miles to New Paltz, NY to find housing because I am moving to the area. I knew my car needed to have the exhaust replaced when I left home, but was told by mymechanic that it could wait. So, I waited and then it waited until NY to become a problem. I Yelped Honda and Jenkinstown Motors came up. The receptionist had me come in right away and within an hour they identified the problem, gave me an estimate and GAVE me a loaner car - I repeat - GAVE me a loaner car. Prior to settling on giving me a loaner car, they offered to drive me to the place I am staying. I told them that I am here to shop for housing and they quickly realized that I needed a car and provided one even though I was working on getting a rental. On top of everything, I was given advice on towns/villages to search for housing and the address for a house for sale in the area and chocolate was provided. While I have not yet found my new home, I have found my new mechanic! Thank you Jenkinstown Motors. A special thanks to Joe, Scott, Colleen and the sweet receptionist! You are good people. THANK YOU!

Nasty customer service!!!
Just got off the phone with Scott and was flabbergasted at his rudeness! I called to get pricing on a 90k service and asked what it covered. First time I called no one called me back. I called again and finally spoke to Scott. He gave me pricing but since it was a bit high for what I can afford right now, I called back to get pricing on just replacing the spark plugs and pcv valve. He wouldn't give me a price on the pcv valve and instead just sounded very annoyed and said, "Ya know what? No thank you. I'm at the point now where it's a "no thank you". No thank you. No thank you." Ummm, okay??? what kind of response is that?!?!?! I'm just trying to figure out what I can afford to do right now and instead of saying "I'm sorry but it's a packaged deal only," or "What can you afford to do right now?" I get a nasty attitude. So "no thank you" Jenkinstown Motors, I'll go somewhere else where they are willing to work with someone who isn't inherently rich. :/

Honest, reliable and deeply respectful of my (possibly senseless) devotion to a very old Subaru. Ed changed the oil, fixed the heater fan and gave me a list of things to watch out for as my reliable car nears the 300,000 mile mark. They didn't try to upsell me on anything or scare me into a bunch of additional repairs. And they vacuumed the mats when they were done....all for less than $75. Love them!
