Oil leak
I checked my oil dip stick and found zero indication of oil in the engine. Called “Bruce’s” got an immediate response, “bring the car over ASAP”! Upon arrival I met Brett in the office, told him my story, he said I’ll check w/Craig just wait in the office. 20 minutes later I was on my way! Oil leak repaired, oil
level topped up! Many thanks to the entire crew!!

1991 Camero needed help
Found a GREAT camero guy, with muck knowledge of my old car. Everything was done in a timely manner and they came in under their quote.Wish they would have given me a heads up about work that needs to be done and that my sticker had run out. I would have gotten it all taken care of before I picked it up.

Excellent Highly Recommended!
Ken was very patient and professional when relating information about my repairs needed. He gave me time to decide what I approved to be completed. The final repairs ended up costing less than quoted - which was very reasonable compared to elsewhere. It also took less time to complete the repairs than expected.
Overall everything was excellent and professional: service, timing, repairs and price. I highly recommend this business.

first timer, outstanding service!
I was recently referred to Bruce's by a friend after the Mercedes dealer quoted an absurdly high price for strut and brake work. Ken was able to source a combination of OEM and aftermarket components and bring the costs in line. The work was outstanding, delivered on time at a reasonable cost, and flawless. The car drives like new and with new Continental True Contact tires, handles like a dream, particularly on wet roads. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience!

Craig got my vehicle assessed and back on the road quickly.
Bruce's Auto has been my go to vehicle repair place for almost 35 years. Craig is always available and straight forward with explaining repair issues. I have been more than satisfied with the work they have prefeed over the years and they stand behind their work. Honest Mainers serving hard working Mainers.
