Not your typical auto repair shop! Thankfully!! They really want to make you happy, they communicate well. They professionally do the work for a lot less than my Mercedes dealer. They even called me a few days later to see if we were happy with their work. Wow!!
Best BMW mechanic shop I have ever been. Extensive knowledge and very professional. No games just straight to the point. Amazing follow-ups with very detailed explanations about what is going on. Bmw Dealer couldnt find the issue, they figured it out less then 24 hours. Polite, timely and efficient. So far my 335i runs perfect. My car was detailed and washed after the repairs without even being asked. Way better than the Dealer and their attitude and pricing. Definitely a life time customer here.Thank you team Shores!
The Shores Automotive team were kind, honest, attentive and professional at all times. Billy followed up to ensure all was good.. My new brakes are smooth as silk! Highly recommend!
Billy and his team took amazing care of my daughter and her 2007 mini cooper. They were able to quickly diagnose her issue and get her back on the road. The level of care and professionalism was impressive! Her mini has found the perfect home!
Absolutely amazing! Fast service, great price, great people!The even delivered my car to my work since I cousins make it over in time!!!Highly recommend!!!
They were prompt and did great work. Explained all issues and gave me options and alternatives
We recently made a decision to keep our 2014 Mercedes Cabriolet as it only has 23k miles, runs perfectly and looks brand new, but needed some maintenance as it is 7 years old. After a long search we decided on Shores Automotive and boy did we ever make the right decision. Amazing group of people to work with from the family ownership to the professional staff and mechanical engineers. If you are looking for high quality workmanship at 1/3 the Mercedes dealership cost, this is definitely the shop for you. And I almost forgot todays follow up call from owner Billy that goes a long way with me too. I wont even think about going elsewhere. See ya again guys.
I went to Shores Automotive Inc twice. I gave this company a try On 4/27/21 & 5/14/21. I paid in total $1693.68 in cash & $451.22 by debit card, totaling $2144.90 spent in total. Billy Craven, the owner lies with a fake kindness and once he frauds you his whole demeanor changes. He is a con artist a crook that will lie to you with a smile. I specifically advised Billy Craven at Shores Automotive that I was looking for a mechanic that I can trust. And I told him that in order for me not to be worried about doing the transmission fluid change, by giving his business a chance versus Mercedes Benz dealership is that Liquid Moly must be put in my car for the transmission fluid change. Billy assured me that Liquid Moly will be put into the car. He even billed me at a higher amount for the use of liquid moly than what his shop normally charges. The red flag was that he billed me at 6 quartz when my car takes 9 quartz. However, after noticing the take off speed not being as fast as before, I discovered by another mechanic shop when I got an oil change and full inspection done that Shores Automotive never used liquid moly. I was told that the transmission fluid change was never even done based on the observation of the oil. I was also advised that the other services that I had paid for such as cabin air filter replacement and right suspension work was never done. In addition, I was advised that Shores Automotive had broken my engine/transmission mounts that hold up my engine, leaving my transmission sitting lower and out of place than where it should. When I reached out to Billy the owner of Shores Automotive, it took him 4 days to respond. However, when Billy was befriending me to spend money at his shop he was very responsive. Billys text response was pure sarcasm and mockery. Instead of him requesting that I come back to the shop so that he can take a look at what the other mechanic advised & resolve the issue, Billy responded with exclamation marks in his text responses, basically implying a mood of anger. Billy then ended his mockery text messages with the words, thank you for sharing your thoughts. After I responded and advised Billy Craven that I was aware of how he mocked me for services that he did not perform, Billy discontinued all forms of communication. I am out of $2144.90 to have my car fixed, which is not easy to come by for services that were never done. I was then mocked by the Billy Craven the owner of Shores Automotive with all communication cancelled. Since Billy knows that he committed such fraud, Billy will not communicate with me. It is evident that he has frauded me and it has been done with the situation of Shores Automotive leaving me being at a total loss of $2144.90 with an Oh well approach. Family businesses like Shores Automotive Inc who knowingly and intentionally steal, lie and charge for fraudulent auto repair services should cease to be in business and they should cease to exist. As a family business, Shores Automotive Inc should run an establishment where Billy doesnt steal and lie since this family auto repair business is their only means of future survival. Billy Craven is a liar. And now I am sitting here with the money spent for services that my car needed and was supposed to have. I am requesting that your commission investigate Shores Automotive and review the proof sent to your commission. I should be refunded. I need to be refunded. Shores Automotive should be shut down for fraud. Get your car checked by a second mechanic if you use their services. The Christian atmosphere and 3 bibles sitting out are all masks to hide this thieving shop.
Extraordinary service with a home town feel you cant find in any auto repair shop. The team of staff from the receptionist, the mechanic including the owner who all truly care about your experience. They are detailed oriented and saved me thousands of dollars. They even pointed out repairs that I could have covered under my factor warranty and sent me back to the dealership where it was fully covered at no charge. Trustworthy, exceptional service and my mechanic, Conrad, treated my car as if it was his own. Great place!!!
Would highly recommend Shores Automotive! They deliver service in a courteous, professional, quality way at a fair price. I trust them to only fix what is necessary and give me all the options. It is about treating customers fairly and honestly. This is a place where you feel secure taking your car.
My warranty ran out and needed a reliable place to have work done. Found this place through a circular and am I quite satisfied with my decision. The place was well run and the employees were cordial and competent. Found their pricing extremely reasonable considering anything having to do with BMW can cost a small fortune. An added bonus is I didnt have to drive 40 minutes to the dealer.
Located a source of water intrusion into my car’s rear battery compartment. Replaced rear hatch weatherstrip and ruled out all the other possible water intrusion sources.Excellent service and Communication. Worked with me to get my car back in a timely fashion to go on a planned trip on time. Highly recommend them.
I have been a customer since 2014. Billy and his team have always done exceptional work for me and my vehicles. This shop is honest and they care about their customers. Although they specialize in BMW and Mercedes, they installed two tires, balanced all four, rotated them, and performed a full alignment on my Range Rover Sport during my last visit. Very happy with their work.
I am very pleased with the service provided. Very friendly and honest. I will be taking my car to Shores for all repairs. They are very trustworthy.
Shores Automotive is the premier automotive mechanic shop in all of south Florida when it comes to fantastic customer service. Everyone in the shop is so pleasant and makes you feel like family. They listen to your concerns and perform a thorough diagnostic on your car. You can be reassured Shores Automotive will only repair what needs to be repaired. I live 31 miles from the shop, and to have a piece of mind of knowing I am not being overcharged is worth my time and travel. I highly recommend Shores Automotive to everyone needing an honest mechanic. I promise you will love Billy, Tory, and Conrad.
I would highly recommend this mechanic. Very honest and ethical. Wonderful experience
I have owned foreign cars and Mercedes for decades. Been to many shops. This one is a cut above the rest. They took the time to explain every decision and recommendation. Highly recommend. Excellent workmanship. Conrad their master mechanic truly has a passion for his work
To get great service, always trust a small business. Truly outstanding customer service with a dedication to doing it right at a fair price. Everyone has a smile on their face and knowledge from years of experience. Highly recommend!!
The real deal! Straight shooters with uber experience and warm and kind-hearted. On point on schedule service with your vehicles well-being the center of their attention.
Billy and his family are wonderful. If my cars were my children, which in a way they are, Billy would be their pediatrician. In other words, I trust him completely. Their chief mechanic Conrad is very knowledgeable and explains fully everything he worked on.
I have been having my 2013 Mercedes serviced at Shores Automotive for a few years now, after having exclusively used a Mercedes dealer before.Shores are an exceptional Mercedes outfit in Boca Raton. Their work is first class, on time and on budget. Their mechanics have considerable Mercedes experience and having chatted to a few customers over the years, I have never come across one who is not completely satisfied.I highly recommend them. Call them and ask for Billy, their owner.
The team at Shores Automotive does an absolutely fantastic job on all aspects of their service. Theyre very clear about what needs to be fixed and also provide options when available. Their follow through and continual communication...during the repair and after...is really outstanding. Id recommend Shores (Billy, Tori and the Team) to anyone in need of car repair.
Very nice atmosphere when I arrived for my oil change on my MB C 250.Went there just because I got an Ad by mail, according to then they perform maintenance much cheaper than a dealership.Got a couple of recomendation to be perform on my car........for example replace the air filter and cabin filter quote 269 $.Did It in a different Maintenance Shop specialize in this kind of cars.........for 169 $. Make your own personal conclusion!!! Wont take my car again because of these review .So be aware only write good reviews !!!!
Billy is great! Great shop. Honest and trustworthy! Highly Recommend!
Billy, his daughter Tori, and the floor mechanic staff are incredibly detailed and most of all honest!They truly care about their customers, and it shows in how the clearly explain what needs to be done, how they follow-through and follow-up!I highly recommend and trust them to take great care of my BMW. You will not be disappointed with the quality and service. 5-stars!!!!
Great place with honest and kind persons working the. They seem to take great pride in what they do and provide quality service. I would recommend them for any BMW owners.
You could not ask for a more qualified, honest and professional group. They will diagnose and fix only what needs to be done. They don’t look for problems that aren’t there. They just try to keep you as a happy and satisfied customer .. Great Christian values !! Thank you for all you do !!
Hi, this is my honest review for this company. Yesterday was my first visit, 02/26/2020. I had an emergency with my car. I can say, Human quality, empathy, respect, excellent customer service A+, diligent, very good work in what they do, my experience was above and beyond my expectations, pleasantly surprised! a a family with a special anointing by God, thank you very much, for what you did for me, and being such special people, an honor to meet you Ms. Tori and Mr. Craven., Very grateful...Ana G. Medina.Do not hesitate to request their services.
Shores Automotive is the best for all of your service needs. The customer service is excellent. The quality of work is superb which is indicative of highly competent technicians. Prices are more than fair and the Shores family are just wonderful and honest people. I will be a customer as long as Shores Automotive remains in business.
They diagnosed a complicated issue and completely resolved it. Owner Billy and Conrad were very professional and I would recommend Shore Automotive highly.
I brought my old (2000) Z3 in for some problems I had and Conrad/Shores Automotive fixed it quickly. This shop was recommended by a friend and now Ill recommend it to others: they really went out of their way to fix my car and to make sure it would run well. No nonsense, just trustworthy service.
Billy Craven is a very honest and ethical individual. Its hard to trust mechanics these days, but Billy Craven will give 100% pure workmanship and honesty before ever taking a dollar from you!!!
I have brought my vehicles to Billy and his team at Shores for years. Always honest and fair, they complete the job as promised and always look out for my best interest not their profit. It is hard to find businessmen and women that you can trust and I find it easy to say I trust Billy, Conrad and the entire Shores Automotive team.
I am hard pressed to add anything not already said by the many 5 star reviews prior to mine. Im so glad I found Shores for my BMW. They have been so good to work with, so focused on quality service and so happy to have my business that I cant imagine going anywhere else. Shores is exactly the local expertise I was looking for to keep my car going for many miles to come. I highly recommend Shores Automotive.
Honest and knowledgeable. They work hard to meet their customers service and timing needs.
They are honest, courteous, timely, experienced, and affordable; most important, though, they are competent.Ive been using Shores for about three years, and have never been disappointed.
Great job, immaculate service. True professionalism and kindness. If you are very picky about who touches your car as well as someone who appreciates true customer service this is the place to go!Came highly recommended and after my visit I see why and glad I discovered them!
I was fortunate to find this shop several years ago. On every occasion, Billy and his team have consistently provided the highest standard of competence, integrity, value and service. I stopped taking my car anywhere else once I found this place.
Billy and the Shore team are a rare breed. It’s not easy finding a good mechanic let alone someone you trust. I’ve been here multiple times and they’re always honest, keep you well informed throughout the process, and show you exactly what is happening and why. Highly recommend and I’ll continue to go back.
I highly recommend Shores Automotive. They are very honest and reasonably priced compared to the dealer. They are extremely helpful and super accommodating. Billy and his team are the best. You wont be disappointed
They did a fantastic job replacing my tires and struts and alignment. Very nice and great customer service. I highly recommend them. It took me awhile to find a good mechanic here in South Florida and I finally found one.
Billy and his team are truly wonderful. They have amazing customer service- so friendly and helpful. Billy was very considerate and explained exactly what needed to be done with my car. He genuinely is a very nice man. His mechanic Kyle was very polite and worked quickly and efficiently. Prices are fair and the work done is beyond satisfactory! No complaints whatsoever. I would HIGHLY recommend them to everyone! Billy Craven Automotive is a blessing!
First rate service. 👍
Both repairs working great.
I needed a complex wiring job done on my Mercedes CLK, and I came across Billy and the team at Shores Automotive. I’m so glad I found them, Billy was very knowledgeable, upfront and fair throughout the whole process. I’ve already brought my BMW there too and will gladly continue to call on Shores Automotive for any of my car repair needs
Always helpful, competitive prices and trustworthy
Shores Auto has always been the biggest help with maintenance on my car! Their rates are absolutely fair, their service is top notch, and Billy Craven is one of the most honest auto workers Ive ever met. If you want fair pricing and integrity, go to Shores!
My husband and I have taken our cars to Billy Craven for years. He is very good at fixing cars in a timely manner, but more importantly, he is extremely honest and trustworthy. He has bailed us out of several car emergencies over the years. His prices are reasonable and he is a very nice person. I have recommended Billy to several relatives and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for somebody great to work on their car!
I went to Shores Auto when my car started making an unsettling noise. Mr. Craven and his staff were professional, courteous, and put my mind at ease. They provided me with a consultation and discovered the root of my vehicles issue quickly and with with efficiency. Upon inspection, they gave me a quote to fix, and informed me that if my car was under warranty from the dealership, the issue would likely be covered and —I would not have to pay out of pocket. The folks at Shores Auto put the customers interest and safety first, something I rarely encounter when I’m getting my car serviced. I ended up getting some minor service on my vehicle at Shores and was in an out in about an hour. I will not hesitate to return for superior and professional automotive repair service.
I generally don’t like bringing my car in for service but Billy at Shores Automotive treats you fairly, honestly and he’s looking out for my best interest. Couldn’t more highly recommend bringing your car in when you need service.
Billy is the embodiment of customer-centered service. He exudes such positive karma that one is immediately assured the entire experience will be completely satisfying; which it was for me. But more than karma, Billy does what he says hell do, do it well and at highly competitive prices. No matter how much you love your BMW, Billy will take excellent care of it -- no matter what may be wrong. In fact, he solves problems the dealers cant.
Since 2015 Ive used them for stuff like mount and balance or a tire rotation. Recently I brought them a 2011 BMW 1 series, always super friendly service, great owners/management, and Will and Conrad always do a quality job in a timely matter.I recommend them to anyone who could benefit from the services they offer.
Billy and his team were great! They did fantastic work at half the price I was quoted by Delray BMW. I highly recommended them!
Billy is a world class person and his company reflects it. Not only did he quickly diagnose a complex problem on my car, he was able to fix it quickly. He also went out of his way to make sure I got the best rate for a rental car and without any hesitation provided me uber service back to my office. Billy is a pleasure to deal with and you will always get an honest approach and price for service. I would highly recommend Shores Automotive to anyone with a BMW or Mercedes.
My experience with Shores Automotive has been nothing less than perfect. Billy and his team are cordial, honest and extremely competent. They do quality work in a timely fashion and stand behind everything they do. I will use Shores Automotive for all of my automotive service needs.
My only regret is that I didnt find this shop years ago! The Cravens make wonderful team running the shop.Billy, the master mechanic has a lifetime of experience. He will take the time to explain exactly what he is going to do and what he fixed. He will recommend things that should be done but is not pushy about it. Prices are very fair and the shop is super clean.
Excellent automotive service by knowledgeable people. Made me feel very comfortable. Job done right. No resulting problems. Highly recommend them.
Courteous, Honest, Trustworthy...In an automotive repair shop! Normally unheard of, but that has been my experience with Billy Craven/Shores Automotive. I have had my BMW and my wifes Lexus serviced with them for years. They take the time to explain and advise what is needed, not just sell parts. Billy and Conrad the Master Mechanic, are very knowledgeable and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.
I have been bringing my car to Billy and the team at Shores for several years. My car is almost 10 years old, so its starting to require a lot more care now. No matter when I call or what is going on, they always do their best to get my car taken care of as quickly as possible. They are honest, professional and care about their customers. I know that I am being treated fairly when I bring my car to them and that they will always do their best to get me back on the road right away.
Shores Automotive has consistently provided good service and quick turnaround. Billy and Conrad explain what needs to be done, meet their expected timeline, and show me any broken parts before they toss them. Besides that, they are notably honest and polite. This place is a gem of family owned, small town service that I never expected to find in Boca.
Billy and his team helped me with an oil change and a new set of tires. They were very helpful and informative as they quickly got my car back to me. They are honest people and I would gladly give them my business anytime!
Billy and his team are very professional, honest, informative and knowledgeable. Took my BMW to Shores Automotive for a routine oil change which was quick and painless. He suggested some items to keep on the radar to watch and monitor, rather than push to be done in the immediate future. The office and garage is very neat and clean. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an honest and reliable mechanic.
Billy and the team at Shores Auto are the best. Professional, thorough, neat and clean, informative and just nice people.They fixed my car quickly and correctly. The price for the work was more than fair.
There is no reason to go anywhere else but Shores Automotive for your German car needs. Billy Craven (owner) is honest, straightforward and lives up to his promises. His team is so knowledgeable, they taught me a few things about my BMW even the dealership didnt tell me! Reasonable prices - excellent work - I would give 10 stars but Im limited to 5.
Friendly, fast, efficient. Quality work with efficient servicemen. They have memorable customer care services and really value their customers!!Hands up!!
I was blessed this season in finding through an advertising circular (which I happened to put aside) this gem of a shop that repaired my 2012 Mini. The shop was clean and organized and owner, Billy explained exactly what the problem was, how it was going to be repaired and the cost.He also looked at another older car I had and helped solve an issue I had with that one. I have recommended him to my friends that own BMWs and Minis with no hesitation. Thank you again, Billy,
Billy was amazing. My experience with Shores Automotive was incredible! He did keep my car for 5 days, but he called everyday and made sure I had an update. He never left me just sitting in the dark, wondering what was going on with my car. He was very honest about everything and very kind. He did everything he could to save me money. This is the guy I trust with my Benz from now on.
Billy is an awesome guy and his mechanic are just as great! Its tough to find an honest mechanic and Im fortunate enough to have found 2. My usual mechanic was on vacation and his secretary referred me to Shores Automotive and they were awesome. Id definitely return if I had another issue.
Love bringing my car to Shores Automotive. I regularly take my car to the dealership for an oil change. Along with that they run a diagnostic test and print out a report with all the items that require immediate attention with a quote. I bring that report to Billy who checks out my car and lets me know which items are critical and which can wait. I appreciate his honesty as the dealer makes it sound like they all need to be taken care of immediately. More importantly he is able to do the work and save me between 25% to 40% of the amount quoted. I trust Billy 100% with my car.
I have had a great experience with Shores Automotive the past 5 years!Theres no better place in my opinion to get your car taken care of.Billy lives out his vision for his business. Vision: To please God with the quality of our service.
Billy and his team are very good at what they do. I have been using them for many years to work on our cars. We can always trust that Billy will always provide a good service at a fair price
Very efficient and reliable guys. Kept me on the loop during the repair processes. I highly recommend them.
Amazing experience!!! I went to the Mercedes dealership a couple of times and they were telling me that there is nothing wrong with my AC... When the warranty expired, they were finally able to diagnose the problem, but now I had to pay over $1600 out of pocket...I brought my car to Billy at Shores automotive, they diagnosed the problem the first time and fixed it for half the price!!! They are honest and professional!!!! Highly recommend!
Both Billy and his team are both highly talented and professional. They not only fixed my Mini Cooper but also went out of their way to check up on me later to ensure everything was working correctly. I would not take my car anywhere else in South Florida.
Excellent staff, great service, really felt comfortable with folks there, God bless them
Friendly staff, honest, and great service!
Fantastic service. Billy went above and beyond, and this will be the place Ill always go to when my car needs repair. Honest and fair. He even called me a few days after to check up on the vehicle to make sure everything was running smoothly.
SHORES AUTOMOTIVE IS ONE OF THE MOST HONEST AND REASONABLE AUTOMOTIVE SHOPS I HAVE EVER KNOWN IN SOUTH FLORIDA.MANY THANKS.
This has to be the best mechanic I have ever been to. Billy and staff is extremely courteous, honest and friendly. The shop is spotless and they do phenomenal work!
I called the nearest mechanic shop because, while driving, my car suddenly was not functioning properly. The shop owner scheduled me in the next morning to diagnose the problem. The problem was identified and he recommended I take my car to the dealer to correct. His honesty and integrity and excellent customer service deserves more than the 5 stars svailable. I will return to this shop when necessary.
Had both cars serviced here my wife and I received excellent service we wouldn’t go anywhere else and would recommend them to anyone
Billy is the best I took my car in for brakes and rotors and he had it back to me ASAP he was courteous helpful and most of all upfront about everything you want done it was so nice to find a mechanic who is honest and straightforward if you need a mechanic shores automotive is the place to go
I have been bringing my cars to Billy for many years, and will keep coming back for their top notch service. I have referred Shores Automotive Inc to my friends, clients and neighbors and all have been pleased with the integrity of the shop.
As a certified BMW repair mechanic myself I endorse this german repair shop ! Good people .
Shores team always does a great job on our BMW and Lexus. Accurate diagnosis, punctual on service time, and very friendly.
Initial visit. Very knowledgeable and performed exactly what asked for. Will be back.
Having just moved to Delray Beach from my hometown (where I knew everyone), it was a scary task to find someone I could trust to work on my E350 Mercedes. I chose Shores Automotive strictly from their reviews (primarily on google), which were stellar. My experience with Billy and Conrad was amazing. First, I called the shop at 7:30 am, and Billy, the owner, answered the phone himself -- points for that alone -- and told me to bring the car in that same day. Second, he offered to do the computer diagnostic free of charge to try and nail down my problem. It was correctly diagnosed, part was ordered, and car was ready the next day. They both went out of their way to explain the issues involved, and called us as each step progressed to let us know what was going on and what the costs were looking like. Finally, when we picked up the car, Billy told us hed be calling in a week to check that everything was as it should be. You will not find a nicer couple of guys, and my husband and I will be using them for any repairs we need on our Mercedes and BMW.
I overpaid him in cash by accident. He ran out to give me back the extra. He is definitely honest!
I have been going to shore automotive for years. THey have always been honest and fair. They are flexible and understanding. They dont push unneccessary repairs on the consumer, and they explain everything each step of the way. If you need an honest mechanic, Billy and Conrad, from Shore Autimotive are the way to go. Drive Safely!
I dont understand so many great reviews here . Makes one wonder . I wont give my business if they can not quote basic srevice repairs cost over the phone . Called firestone and no issue for basic service quote over the phone and was happy to give my business to them .
Great shop!!! Fair pricing!!!
I never used them but who would go to a shop that refuses to give u a quote over the phone like routine rear brake replacement for a car. He says well we dont know how many brake pads u have. I say ummm, google it. Im sure there are manuals. I say do u charge for bringing my car and seeing how many brake pads. He says yes. Click. Called delray honda.. u have 2 in front, 2 in back and it costs $230 for front and $230 for back. I would never use an automotive place like Shores and i see most positive reviews. U wonder... are they from their family and friends?
I constantly was looking for a reliable and trustworthy mechanic to service my needy BMW and I found him . Billy Craven and his professional staff are truly a breed apart from all others. JS
They are really friendly, really fair prices and great service !
Honest people and amazing service!
I came here to repair BMW, it is a small repair shop, their maintenance costs are very high, they deceive customers. This place can not be trusted.
