Elie is definitely the person to speak with as I find that some of the other guys might be a bit nervous speaking to customers or have language barrier, but Elie has no problem getting on the phone to explain things to his... (more)

I am from the midwest and to date (having lived in cambridge now for 3 years) this is the ONLY business I have encountered that has the Midwest style of customer service and genuine kind treatment. It was refreshing to... (more)

I've been close with a number of mechanics in the past, mostly due to cars that I've owned and their need for specialized care. I really stumbled across FPM randomly - they happen to also be close to my house - and have had... (more)

I took my car here for inspection when I first moved to town. The place was close to my apartment and the guys seemed nice enough. Hell, the mechanic took me (a woman) under the car to show me something- I was impressed.... (more)

I first experienced Elie and Fresh Pond the day a speed bump at Angell Animal Medical Center ripped a piece off the bottom of our car. Thank goodness our 155lb dog was not in the car at the time because the piece was... (more)

I simply do not get the negative reviews. I have been taking my Saab here for the last 6 years and had nothing but positive experiences.Eli and his crew are honest, respectful and cost me about half of what I would spend... (more)

I've been going to Fresh Pond Mobil for over 10 years from when I was driving an old VW Rabbit to the New Nissan Maxima that I drive now. I've come to know Eli (the owner) and the mechanics as being fast, reliable and... (more)

I have never taken my car to get repaired here however, my car died and it was so old that it was not worth fixing it. So it died on a major road and I called them and they said they are a car junk removal service. They came... (more)

I took my 07 GMC yukon over to Eli's and I have to say the service was great and the price was great also! I needed new rotars and brake pads, ntb quoted me around $800.00 and Eli did it for me for half of that! I needed a new... (more)

I am sorry but I have to disagree with all of these reviews. I have taken my car to this station twice for repairs and an inspection. The owner Eli has been very nice and professional on both occassions. He had pointed out... (more)

Despite all the extremely negative reviews, I actually just had a great experience with Elie and Joseph. The transmission on my Saturn completely went, literally, with a bang, and all my fluid leaked out of the huge... (more)

Eli has always been good to me. I have brought several cars there and have never had a problem. I have called around to get pricing for many of the repairs I've had Eli do, and he is usually the most affordable. On top of... (more)

Eli fixed an electrical problem in our old car that had stumped another mechanic. He replaced a defective, rebuilt, part he had installed cheerfully and with no charge and very fast. Finally, maybe it is the lousy... (more)

Eli's Fresh Pond Mobil did a superior, speedy "pit stop quality" job fixing my car. I really don't think that his business would have expanded to the extent that is had by "ripping people off." The harsh reality is that... (more)

I gave them the quick scoop, and then went home. Monday morning, Elie gave me a call and told me I needed a new transmission. OK, I knew that. But then he gave me three options at three different prices all which were below... (more)
