VanDervort Service Center in
Vestal Township (NY)

VanDervorts hands down are the best guys in the business. They are extremely talented mechanics who are kind, decent, honorable and worthy of only the highest praise. When you walk in the door, you are treated like family, not another number. My family has several vehicles who have gone through their mechanics’ hands over the years, and not once did I feel like I was being over-charged or misled. Our community is blessed to have them.

I had been told by another locally owned repair chain that I had an " internal engine issue" that they could not diagnose. They told me that I would need a engine tear down or replacement in my 2014 Hyundai Sonata. I called an set up an appointment with Vandervort and they not only assured me that the issue was not internal ( loose metal shield flapping on frame ) but also diagnosed and fixed the check engine light that the other shop were baffled by ( fuel pump issue ) . Justin and his crew are the best! Am taking my other car in on Monday to figure out the check engine light that the other shop was also baffled by! I have a new ( and much better ) repair shop from now on!

I want to let you know that I took my Older Muscle Car to Vandervort's after it had been sitting for almost 3 years. It needed some TLC to get it road worthy again. They were able to Diagnose and repair all the items that we had talked about........and.....Get that Car Finished and Running again in ONE Day! There expertise in handling these types of cars is outstanding. That car was treated like it was a member of their family. Pricing for all of the repairs was Very Reasonable!! If you have and Older Vehicle, or even Today's Newer Vehicle you can count on them to get your vehicle diagnosed and back to you extremely quickly...Thanks for taking care of all of this. It is Greatly Appreciated!

Since my recent move to Binghamton, it’s been tough finding a new mechanic; good, trustworthy ones are hard to come by. But VanDervort is exactly that. Justin and his team were extremely friendly, transparent, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the whole process. I was expecting major issues with my Mazda, but they quickly diagnosed the problem and only fixed what was necessary—they didn’t try to upsell me on anything. The price I paid was more than fair, too. I don’t look forward to the next time my car breaks down, but when it does, I know who to call. Highly recommended. Thanks, guys!

I’ve been taking my vehicles to vandervorts ever since I can remember. Recently I had to have the transmission replaced in my truck. Justin and his team were able to complete the repair in a fraction of the time that anybody would have ever expected. They do a phenomenal job for a fair price.

VanDervort Service Center truly sets the standard for excellence in auto repair services. Their commitment to providing quick and friendly service is evident from the moment you walk through the door. I had an emergency traveling from Delaware to Vestal. I called and was told to bring my car in immediately. Thank goodness I did. Justin and his team found the problem. His team went to work right away to fix my Lexus. (There was no way I could get home with out VanDervort’s help and service). I thought it was going to take a couple of hours but they were done in less than 45 minutes. As additional problems were found out as my car was being prepared that was fixed as well. I could go on and on but I think you get the picture. Have car issues; call Justin at VanDervort Service Center. You will not regret it.

As a college student who knows nothing about cars, going to these guys was a great experience. They were all so kind, caring, patient, and helpful! They did what they could to fix the problem occurring and gave me important advice about other problems that could put my safety at risk. I’m very grateful that I’ve found a place that not only helps fix problems with cars but cares about their customers!

I had a flat tire. I limped to Vandervorts. They were covered up but willing to pump more air in so I could get to a tire shop. The tire was hissing and next thing I know, Justin's ĺaying on the pavement plugging the tire. "My conscience wouldn't let me send you down the road on that tire." Justin wouldn't accept payment other than a handshake. If you want good, hometown, honest service, this account is all you need to know. Great guys, personal service.

The only mechanic you'll ever need. Justin and his team are incredibly friendly, upfront, and honest people. There's only fair priced service on actual needed repairs here, never any unecessary upselling on unneeded services. For those mechanically-inclined husbands afraid of their wives getting ripped off at the mechanic, this is the place to send them, nothing but fair service for all.

We have trusted Vandervort's to keep our vehicles running for over a decade. Justin, Marty and crew are great at what they do and are all-around amazing human beings. They are straightforward, honest & trustworthy. Believe all the 5-star reviews - this place is a diamond in the rough. Highly recommend.

Justin and Jim are the best. VanDervort is the best local automotive repair shop in the area. Fair prices and upfront and honest repairs. I trust them with all of my vehicles. Highly recommend you give them your business.

Wow. Just wow. The best and most honest car service I have ever had. Justin and the crew there is just fantastic. My (frankly, my POS) Volvo needed a new battery, I called about 3-4 places in Vestal asking if they could help. Justin at VanDervort was the only one willing to help me change its battery, and he was even able to get it my car in the same day. He was professional, so so helpful, and genuinely kind- he even topped off the air in my tires and oil. Needless to say I won’t be going anywhere else for my car (and will continue to go there, even when I get a new one;)). I highly, highly suggest VanDervort Service Center for your car needs. Thank you, Justin and the VanDervort crew!

Look no further, this is the place to have your car serviced! Thank you Justin for taking the time to look at my daughters car issue and taking care of it so quickly! I cannot say enough what a relief it is to find an automotive service center that is honest and trustworthy. Being that my daughter is a Binghamton Student and is far away from home, I was extremely concerned when I received the call back on Long Island, that she was having car problems. I did some research online and found the VanDervort Service Center. After speaking with Justin, I made an appointment and he quickly took care of the issue and soon had my daughter back on her way. Thank you again for giving me such "peace of mind" knowing that I have found someone I can trust to keep my family safe, so far away from home!

I bring my whole fleet of vehicles to VanDervorts Service Center. They are top notch, extremely professional and always do an excellent job. Even if you call after hours they have a well trained technician on site to take care of last minute emergency's.

Not from the area originally and I am not the best driver, so I was nervous about finding a good shop to go to when I moved. Justin and the team at VanDervort have always been so kind and incredibly helpful whenever I have done something stupid. They always explain what they’re doing in a way I understand and I always leave happy.

Excellent service. We were traveling, hours from home, when the tire pressure light came on. Turns out my tire had a screw embedded in it. Even though it was just after closing time, the guys at VanDervort took us in and repaired the tire in minutes. They were friendly, efficient, and honest. These guys could have taken us for a ride if they had a mind to, but they gave us exceptional service. I recommend VanDervort very highly.

I'm from out of town, drove two hours to Vestal to visit family for a few days, and when I arrived in town my car started making a funny noise. At the advice of my family, I called VanDervort to see if someone could look at it and at least tell me if my car was unsafe for the drive back. Despite them being booked up for the next week, they were very friendly and squeezed me in for the next day. I got some very good service and advice, and was generally very impressed by their professionalism and accommodation. VanDervort seems to have a solid reputation around the area, and from what I've seen as an out of towner needing help, that reputation is well deserved.

After a very long two weeks of issues with my car, I brought it to VanDervorts and I am beyond happy with the service they provided. They were very kind and welcoming and made me feel like my car was a top priority. It was expected that my car would have to stay with them for a few days, but they went above and beyond to find what my car needed and have it ready for me within a few hours. I am so grateful for this service and would recommend them to anyone. I definitely will be going back for anything that my car needs.

We hit a pothole about 20 miles away and got 2 flat tires. AAA recommended this shop. When we called they didn’t have the parts but found them fast and called us back. They were ready to get the car fixed when we arrived. They stayed open past their time to fix our tires. They were so friendly and accommodating! I wish I was local so I could continue to use this shop. We are from out of town and were treated like old friends. I can’t recommend this business enough!!! All the fellas are wonderful to work with!

I have been taking my vehicles to VanDervorts for years even though I live 20 minutes away and pass a half dozen car shops on my way to work. They are professional and honest with you. They recommend repairs when they are necessary and don't try to rip you off on every inspection or small maintenance issue like so many others do. Therefore, when they do recommend some work, I know I really ought to take their word for it.

Very honest business! Accurate estimates were given and high quality customer service. They went out of their way to service every issue regarding my vehicle and gave me the best price. They also kept me updated with the issues as they serviced my vehicle and educated me on what to do in order to maintain my vehicle.

I will never go anywhere else. I have a Cadillac and was a little hesitant to take it anywhere outside of dealership, but my wheel bearings went and I read the reviews. The first Plus was they have courtesy cars, Second Plus they came and towed my car to shop. Actually I should say first Plus was they took me the next day I called. They checked the car out and gave me a price, which was decent. I ended up getting 4 new tires ( which I knew I needed) brakes ( again, needed) and frontend alignment and bearing. They had it finished by the next day! When I got the car back it Road like a dream, loved the new tires. I’d never bought tires unseen or had someone else put on my 2007 vehicle before. Brakes are great. Every day I get in the car to drive I think about writing this review because other reviews helped me to find them and now I will never use anyone else and I’ve been going to repair shops for +30 years. To me they offer what dealerships do with more personal touch. They make you feel like they really will take care of you and not do stuff to car that it doesn’t need nor price gauge you. THE BEST

Having had new cars over the last decade or so, I've had no need to find a repair shop other than the dealerships I've dealt with. However, last year I came across a car that had been sitting for 18+ years and needed to find someone I could trust to look the car over and repair it if possible. So, since VanDervort's was near my home, I decided to check their reviews and give them a call. Spoke to shop manager Kevin and he said they would be more than happy to look at the car and he would hook me up with a flatbed to come and get it. A few days later Kevin called and said it was running but that it needed a few basic things replaced to make it roadworthy. He said to fix what was needed without pumping a ton of money into it until it's been on the road for awhile. Said to drive it and see what happens. I was a first time customer with a 33 year old car that sat for almost 20 years....and VanDervort Service didn't try to hose me or make me fix a ton of things before knowing if the car was a mechanical basket case or not. I was impressed!! So, I had them fix the car and drove it all last fall. When springtime came...I returned and had them put new shocks and tires on the car and went on to drive it all summer long.... problem free. Took it back to them today for the State Inspection and met Marty the owner and Jim the mechanic......two very nice people. Bottom line....I trust the people at VanDervort Service Center to take care of my old car. They're an honest business that cares about their customers. I'm glad I called them.

I highly recommend VanDervort to anybody who wants honest servicing. They are genuine, trustworthy and friendly-neighborhood mechanics. I was directed by multiple regular customers to take my car to VanDervort. I went in for NYS inspection and with wheel bearing issues. Worked me right into their schedule and the entire work was done in less than 4hrs. I was treated very well by the service center owner Marty. They have just earned a loyal customer.

I can't recommend VanDervort's enough. I decided to take my car in since they are located close to my home and work and wanted to try a shop outside of the normal chain shop that I've been using. I'm just upset that I didn't take my car in sooner. I had delayed on some repairs out of fear of the cost and I have to say I will not hesitate to address concerns earlier using this shop. The services were extremely reasonably priced, everyone there was very kind and accommodating, I didn't have to rely on a ride with their courtesy service AND I picked my very dirty car up completely clean at no additional charge, which was a very pleasant surprise. 10/5 stars, can't wait to use their services again.

My husband and I have brought our cars here a couple times for inspections and other repairs. Everyone we have dealt with has been exceptionally friendly and helpful, we were given appointments in a timely manner (Love the online appt setup), and were pleased with the services rendered. I appreciated that the repairs/progress were communicated to me (I was shown how worn down some parts they repaired were and Kevin explained the piece and how it worked/was assembled/repaired) and was happy with rates. Overall very pleased with the services and employees. Will return when needed.

From scheduling an appointment over the phone to receiving service, this place has provided one seamless. professional and friendly experience. I just had my car inspected in 15 minutes with no up-sells. You just get a good, honest vibe from service like that. Couldn't recommend this place more.
