“I've been going to Jack for repairs since we moved to Needham, 25 years ago. I quickly learned that I could trust him to tell me what needs to be done and, almost more importantly, what does NOT need to be done, at least not immediately. They often say 'that can wait until your next oil change' or something similar. They do good work and have fair prices. They have also, more than once, resolved an emergency for me. Jack and his crew have become my friends. Steve”

“I had a dead battery and George was amazing, he came to our house and gave it a jumpstart and also ran numerous tests to ensure a healthy battery. Despite spending over an hour of his own time and resources, he gave our batter a clean bill of health and refused payment of any kind. Not sure I’ve ever had such a positive experience when it comes to auto care. I know where I’m going from now on!”

“I’ve always loved Mobil gas stations. I especially love speedpass. It enables me to purchase gas straight from my phone. That comes in handy if I forgot my wallet (we never forget our phones) or if I’m not with someone but I’m helping to pay for gas, it’s super convenient. So it’s always a plus to find a Full Serve one but that’s just having my cake and eating it too lol”

“When my hybrid car suddenly died on I-95, this was the nearest service station recommended by the towing guy. I had never used Needham Shell before, but they investigated and fixed this issue in a day, including sending someone to a Hyundai dealer to fetch a part, with good communication/updates throughout the process. Later, Joey was very helpful in getting me the documentation I needed to reclaim expenses from Hyundai. I would definitely use them again.”
