This rating is based on customer reviews, inventory size, pricing, and service quality
In Brooklyn, NY, Galaxy Motors scores 91/100 with a strongly positive overall sentiment. Reviewers highlight a family-run, trustworthy team, clear explanations, fair pricing, and very fast NYS inspections; turnarounds are often same day with courteous service and even after-hours pickup. Fast inspections and honest, reliable work stand out. Complaints are rare but sharp: a few report unresolved leaks or poor outcomes after complex repairs (some European models) and one claim of an inspection refusal, so set expectations on major jobs. Reviews suggest a repair shop, not a self-serve yard; data on inventory variety, yard organization, and ease of finding parts is unclear.
I have been bringing my cars to this garage for over 10 years. They deliver great service. Their pricing is reasonable. They are also trustworthy, which is probably the most important quality of all in automotive repair.
I recently took my car in for an oil change, filter change, and CVT transmission service, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! I provided my own oil for both the engine and transmission, and they handled the labor flawlessly. The price for the labor was extremely fair, and the quality of their work was top-notch. They didn’t take forever, either—everything was done efficiently and professionally. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for honest, reliable service at a great price. I’ll definitely be coming back for any future car needs!
Continually good service. Honest mechanic. I always feel my car is in good hands here. Happy to support a local "mom and pop" shop that works hard and offers good service.
Been coming here for years to get maintenance and inspection done on my older bmw. They’re transparent very thorough. 10/10 would recommend to anyone in the area.
Came here to get my brakes fixed because my usual mechanic close to home was on vacation. Work was done within 24 hours and they let me pick my car up after they were closed. They told me what needed to be done and showed me visually what was wrong. Extremely nice and honest people who gave me free advice about my car and how to save money on repairs in the future. Great experience.
Fantastic service! Anna is very patient and helpful, she taught me a lot about what repairs my car needed and why. Labor prices were also very reasonable and the turnaround time was fast! Highly recommend these folks ?
I cannot say enough good things about the service I received at this auto-shop. They prioritized a last minute oil change and had it done within minutes.
I learned that they family owned for over 40 years! Carlos and his wife make a great team, the neighborhood will miss you when you transition into your well deserved retirement.
I've had nothing but fantastic experiences with them--been going to Carlos for several years. They always fix my (somewhat old) car up like new and keep it going for a very affordable price. Highly recommended!
Carlos is a nice guy, but I brought in my car and paid $1,000 cash to fix a minor issue I had, when i went to pick up it wasnt fixed and he still had to tweak with it while i waited an hr, (i left the car there for 2 weeks to fix a coolant and oil leak), said i needed to buy a new radiator (over priced by $100 upsale) istalled it and not a week later the same problems are presisting leaking oil (replaced housing gasket) and coolant also having more problems now after it was supposedly "fixed" my fan cluch is acting up wich is probably due to poor reinstilation after replacing the radiator.. i would NOT recommend Galaxy Motors for more serious engine work especially if you have an import car bmw/mercedes/audi/porche/farrari/or anything expensive. Better to take it to a european automotive specialist pay the extra instead of paying for work twice. Very upset $1,000 out of pocket with the same problems i took the car in with :(
I took my civic here for service and not only did it run worse,they also installed a bad alternator I had to have replaced less than a year later. Luckily the guys over at Salerno's were able to help me out, now my car runs amazing. DO NOT GO HERE!!
I discovered this gem in Bushwick, by word of mouth. I still read the reviews and was even more encouraged to go there. After dealing with shyster mechanics and thieves, I was so relieved to finally find my permanent shop. All I needed was an inspection test to be done. Carlos fit me in as he had several other cars there. He informed me that I needed new front shocks and my ball joints needed to be replaced, which explained the creaking noise I was driving around with. He quoted me a reasonable price and was done the next day inspection and all. It turns out one of the bolts holding one of the shocks had snapped some time ago and he had a very hard time removing it, but he and his crew got it done at no extra cost. My car drives like a dream now.
This is a family run place and they are very courteous and helpful. I recommend this place to everyone. They don't try to up sell and will accommodate you with pricing, offering prices from inexpensive parts to higher priced parts. They will also suggest the best quality for your situation.
