Came in clutch! Running around trying to get an inspection on a work day, Leander got me despite the cut-off time. Rapid, no-nonsense service. Stop here first!
Matt and colleagues do a great job with our cars. I went there first 7-8 years ago for help with an aging hybrid (2001 Prius), and have kept going there for EV maintenance since. They are really knowledgeable about all of the cars, and offer great service. They are also always game for doing the necessary research to find solutions to unusual problems I bring them. Feels really good to have a shop that I can trust with all of it.
ATTENTION PRIUS AND HYBRID OWNERS! There is an alternative to going to the dealership.
Every repair shop that I brought my Prius to told me that I would have go to a dealership, as they don’t deal with hybrids. (obviously, much much much more expensive).. I was so fortunate to have a friend that referred me to Leo and Son’s (hybrid specialist) or I would never have known they were an option for me. The quality of their work speaks for itself, their customer service far exceeds any dealership or other repair shop I’ve ever been to (and there were many and I have had many vehicles in my many years) and the price was less than half of what a dealership would’ve charged me!
So grateful and thank you so much, Matt, for going without a doubt above and beyond but any customer can possibly expect.
Beware Tesla owners...I went in because I was told that since I was a new customer I wouldn't be charged anything to have the car inspected and diagnosed. I was promptly charged $200 for that inspection. In addition, I had to put down over $700 as a deposit to fix minor parts to the car. I went to Tesla service center and it ran less than $500. Finally, I was able to sit down in the center and have snacks. This place told me I couldn't wait in their waiting room. "That's not going to work for us". Tesla owners steer clear....find the service center that will work for you.
Had a great experience with Matt and his team getting the AC in my Accord repaired. Diagnosed the problem quickly, no upselling of unnecessary things, and saved me hundreds of dollars compared to what the dealership wanted to charge me to fix the issue.
I have nothing but nice things to say about Matt & his guys. They were professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. They were reliable and responsive in communicating with me both by phone and text. We worked out a plan of action and they followed it to the letter. I highly recommend Leo&Sons without any reservations.
From the moment I met Matt, I knew I was in good hands. He is professional, honest, and incredibly knowledgeable. Matt took the time to drive with me to make sure he understood my concerns. I felt heard and understood.
The issue was quickly diagnosed, and they gave me a fair and transparent quote—and stuck to it. No surprise fees, no pressure to get unnecessary work done, just honest, top-quality service.
Brought my traverse in for new tires. When I got it back the tire pressure monitoring system was giving an error. He said to bring it back later and he'd take care of it. Whe. I brought it back he said it would be almost $600 like it didn't happen after their tire change. Not happy
Exceptional customer service with transparency and honesty. Even before the work was done, I felt confident I was in great hands. Leo & Sons Auto Repair is a family-owned business, which really resonated with me. I've been to several auto repair shops in the past, and I often had to return because parts were missing, issues weren't fully resolved, or something else broke during the repair process.
At Leo & Sons, I also got my state inspection done, and the whole process was seamless. They gave me peace of mind from the moment I contacted them. They have a fantastic text message system and an easy-to-use website where you can book appointments. Plus, they send you a digital receipt, so you won't lose it, and it's eco-friendly too.
Additional perks: They offer WiFi for guests and have a comfortable waiting area where you can charge your phone or laptop and work remotely if needed, or just check social media or read some of their many funny quotes. Time flew by while I waited. There's also a clean bathroom for clients.
These guys are awesome. I’ve brought my wrx here twice and have been met with nothing but efficiency and transparency. They get me in the shop as soon as possible and do very good work. They also text you exactly what is being done, and what it will cost. No gimmicks or strings attached. Matt is very knowledgable and kind as well. Definitely will be using Leo and Sons for my future repair/diagnostic needs.
Dec 20, 2023 Leo's Auto Repair, a long time quality and professional Automotive Service Facility. I had my vehicle serviced by Leo's in Lawrence Ma. last week and I knew with confidence, I brought it to the right people without question. Leo L. was the founder and Matt his son has been stepping in to carry on the business, either way, Leo and Matt and their whole team of Service Technicians are professionals. Leo's has a very clean facility, properly trained people, skills, equipment, software and personable communication skills and generations of customers who love and trust them to fix our vehicles. In a world where there are hacks popping up daily and going out of business, Leo and his son Matt have stayed on top of the automotive issues to know Combustion Engines to EV and evolving technologies. I'll be back again, every vehicle eventually needs help... thank you Leos
Leo and Mat, just completed an inspection on our 2021 Tesla MY. Thorough and professional. Mat previously inspected 2 Nissan Leaf’s a 2012 And a 2019; spot on with the evaluation. Thank you
Since the first time that we had our car serviced at Leo & Son’s, we were warmly welcomed & it was easy to see that this family run business was both knowledgeable and reasonable. They never pushed us to do work that was not strictly necessary & have always completed work in a timely manner. We recommend Leo & Sons to people whenever we have an opportunity!
Leo & Sons are thorough, trustworthy, and affordable. I've never seen a cleaner and more organized mechanic shop. I appreciate their process for texting photos and updates to keep me informed of how much the job is going to cost.
I had an excellent experience with getting my car repaired at Leo and Sons and would highly recommend. The customer service was great. Matt was very patient and took the time to explain the work needed for my car. They provided a very detailed diagnostic report with pictures, which was very helpful. After bringing my car to the dealer and thinking it was the end for my car, Leos made the repairs in a timely manner and at a reasonable price. I will definitely go back to Leo and Sons if I have any other issues with my Hybrid Nissan Altima.
Wow!!! Glad I picked Leo and Son’s Auto Repair, what a great shop! My sons engine light has been on went to a couple other shops prior including Jeep dealer in Methuen they wanted 1200 just to diagnose the problem ‘robbery’ - Leo & Son’s (Leo and Matt) were honest and resolved the repair quickly at a very reasonable price, very impressed by the tool they use to communicate with the customers, included repair overview, pictures and price breakdown - take your car here they will not disappoint- I’m so happy I selected Leo’s & Son’s what a find! Thanks Leo and Matt!
Leo & Sons was a great auto shop. Got my car to pass state inspection and prices were much more reasonable compared to the Honda dealership. This will be my go-to mechanic from now on - trustworthy, great communication, and most importantly great service!
Matt thoroughly diagnosed my hybrid. He composed a detail reports with pictures taken showing the process at every steps, along with recommendations for repairs. All within the promised time. I chose to have the shop doing the repair as well. Matt also took pictures of the repair process, including removal of old part and its replacement. I hope I really don't have any other problems with my hybrid. If I do, I will come back to Leo & Sons with confidence. If they are closer to where I live, I'd come to them for all of my car problems. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for hybrid and all other problems. Professional, personal, and very transparent!
Very forward-thinking repair shop offering advanced services for hybrid and electric vehicles. A friend received a complimentary diagnostic report for his Nissan Leaf in a quick and timely manner. We look forward to bringing our electric cars here for independent service when the need arises.
We had Leo & Sons upgrade the drive battery for our 215 Leaf from 24kWh to 40kWh. We worked with Matthew Lamontagne who is very knowledgeable with connections all over (New Zealand). Matt secured a total-loss donor car and thoroughly evaluated its battery as suitable. The work was done quickly and with the agreed upon timing. Excellent communication (Email + phone as needed) and beyond excellent online documentation of the work as proposed, as being done, recommend services and final result (and bill :-). Lots of before, during and after pictures shared out, as well as any specific measurement results. A loaner car was made available for the whole multi-day process.
Leo & Son, I am satisfied for the repair of the brake of my Kia Sorento. I was tried about the cost but when I saw all the brand new spare parts that you replaced for the brake issues, I was happy. Thanks and keep going with your hard and honest work.
I have used Leo and Sons a few times. I was new to the area in 2019, and we were lucky enough to find them on the first try. We googled, they had good reviews, so we tried them out. We haven't been to anyone else sense. They use modern technology, which makes the visit so much easier (reviewing services/cost via email + phone). They give you the power to decide what you want to happen, and what you are okay waiting for. Everyone is nice, and they are very efficient. Will continue going to them in the future for maintenance needs, or general services like state inspection.
I have brought my vehicles to Leo & Sons Auto Repair for about 10 years. They are courteous and accommodating, helping me set up the right time to bring the car to them. They are very good about explaining issues with the car so that I understand what the car needs. The prices are reasonable. I like that they have been AAA approved. I enjoy recommending them to people I know, because of the high quality service they provide.
Honest, reliable, fair prices and gets your vehicle back to you in a reasonable amount of time. I was very pleased with the estimate software the shop used to show me what work needs to be done and how much it may cost. I was able to quickly approve any work and was also able to keep invoices for record keeping electronically.
This shop is on the cutting edge but has an old time feel where you feel valued as a customer.
My family and I have been using Leo & Sons for years. They are ALWAYS accommodating, professional and accurate in terms of giving us an estimate of when our cars will be ready. But the best thing is that we can be comfortable knowing that the work will be done right — they’ll let us know if any unexpected problems are found, they never try to upsell us, they are always willing to explain options or reasons why something needs to be done. Their courtesy and friendliness are a delightful extra! I cannot strongly enough recommend them — I’m an older, single woman and I just can’t tell you what it means to know that my car is in such reliable, honest hands.
I took my 100% electric 2013 Nissan Leaf to them because of prior great reviews, and they diagnosed (as I had suspected) a broken heater for the cabin. They ordered a new part on my request and had it in short order. Although they needed the car for a few days, they left me a good Prius loaner car that minimized disruption to my daily life (especially since I'm a hour away). They did the work for a fair price and the heater has worked great - especially important for the unusually cold winter days we've had here in eastern Mass. this winter. I also appreciate they could do advanced diagnostics for my electric car and share them with secured online reports that include their diagnostic data and photos. Bravo, Leon & Sons!
Leo & Sons is very professional. I went to them based on their reviews and proximity to my house. I go for regular oil changes. My car was making noise when starting up every now and then and based off of a video I took of the issue they were able to identify the problem (timing belt was loose) and fix it. No more noise! Very reliable folks. I feel confident taking my car there for any issue.
Leo and Sons came highly recommended for any electrical work I needed done in my jeep. They have lived up to what I've been told about them. They go above and beyond every time. I have had to have electrical work done 3 x now in different areas throughout the last couple of years. Matt has always been up front and honest about any work and they have very fair pricing for all work being done. Their system for communication is great and easy to use. I am sent detailed lists of problems and photos/ videos as well. I would highly recommend Leo and Sons to anyone who is looking for work done on their car.. Thanks guys!
Leo and Sons is the best! I moved to this area a couple years ago and I was not looking forward to going through the process of finding a trustworthy mechanic. When I found Leo and Sons I felt so much relief. Leo and Matt are awesome. They are excellent at what they do and have the 40+ years of experience to prove it. They go above and beyond to help you out and are genuinely kind people. If you value an honest family business, fair prices, and experts engineers, Leo and Sons is for you. Oh, one more plus is their specialization in hybrids! Highly Recommended.
I love Leo and Matt. It is wicked hard to find a quality repair shop, especially if you have a European car. But this shop does an awesome job overall. I wouldn't go anywhere else. They know their stuff. Plus they drive me to work in the morning or let me use their 1987 Toyota Corolla haha!!
Only downside is it's expensive to utilize them if you own the said European car. Understandable as some parts cost more. Plus sometimes Leo and Matt aren't always on the same page when booking appointments too.
But this is still the best repair shop on the North Shore. I told my parents and brother to go here versus anywhere else. I believe they do now. Highly recommended!!!
