great service; also see Car Talk reviews
In my view, this is the best auto shop in the triangle area. I heard great things about this shop by word of mouth, which of course is the best way to find a good mechanic. Since visiting them, I've had only positive experiences. ...

Will come back again
My insurance company also recommended this company to fix the hail dents in my car from a hail storm in April. I'm glad I went with these nice folks. They fixed it back to the way it was before it was dented just like new -

Ed Gaydosik's HIGH TECH Tire & Auto Repair RIP-OFF
My recent experience with High Tech Tire & Auto (new address 4647 Hillsborough Rd.) was the most outrageous example of gross incompetence and intentional repair fraud that I've seen in 35 years. It was especially distressing, given that I had been a loyal customer of Ed's since 1996 and had sent him several referrals. In May of 2006 Ed told me I had an oil leak on my '99 F-150 engine with 97,000 miles. The truck was running fine but Ed claimed that the engine could fail tomorrow or in 2 years & it was best to be pro-active and buy another 100,000 miles of 'insurance' while the engine was still good. He knew that I used the truck for work & camping, so he played on my fear that I could be stranded. I reluctantly agreed to a head gasket repair which cost $1,213.60. Immediately after (on the way to our vacation) the Service Engine Light came on due to a vacuum problem, and a horrible new chronic burning odor appeared which became known as the mystery smell. (Why is it that after a wee

Beware: Astonishing Cooincidence
Astonishing cooincidince: I took my car into High Tech Tire to get my tires replaced. Before taking it in, I could not detect any problem with my battery. However, when High Tech called me to tell me the tires were done, they warned me about the battery needing to be replaced. Having had no trouble with the battery, I figured I'd have my regular mechanics check it out when I took the car in for the 60K.

Only great experiences at High Tech
We have taken our cars to Ed at High-Tech Auto for a few years now and highly recommend them. We have had nothing but positive interactions and great service. We've had some significant repairs needed, and some minor issues. Ed has always worked with us both time and budget-wise and we've not had a single problem.

in fairness to high tech
i've been taking our cars (subaru and honda) to ed at high tech tire & auto in durham for about a year. we had recently moved to durham, and used car talk's mechanics files tool (http://www.cartalk.com/content/mechx) to find a local shop. high tech could not be more convenient (2 blocks from home, and right on a DATA bus stop).

High Tech Tire and Auto
I am a single mother, I don't make a whole lot of money, and my car is high mileage. But I must have that car to keep functioning. Whenever something goes wrong, Mr. Gaydosik is right there ready to do what it takes to get me back on the road. It means so much to have someone that I feel is on my side and cares about my car. by Brenda Love

High Tech Tire & Auto is great
Ed's been working on my vehicles for almost 20 years. He is always courteous and his guys seem to know what they're doing. I have a really bad schedule for getting my cars serviced and he always accomodates me often on a spur of the moment. I don't trust the oil change in a box shops. You wanna talk about rip-offs, go in one of those places and see how much your $19.95 oil change ends up costing.

In my view, this is the best auto shop in the triangle area. I heard great things about this shop by word of mouth, which of course is the best way to find a good mechanic. Since visiting them, I've had only positive experiences. Superb owner, skilled mechanics, fair prices, courteous, timely, and informative service, very clean shop and waiting area.
