Been taking my 89 Honda Civic there since I moved to Maine
about 3 years ago. Their work is OK but pricey. On a recent
safety inspection, they replaced a tail light and charged
me $1 for the part and $14 for labor!! I complained, but
the service rep said they charge by the book. I'm looking
for another place to take my car for service. I may return
for major work, but not for routine work. Also, I will
return for a new muffler when it goes because that's under
warrantee.

7/2008. I've lived in Northern Maine for over ten years
and usually have my vehicles fixed by a local mechanic but
when it is feasible and for certain repairs I prefer to
travel 3 hours to Bangor. The best dealer repair shop in
over 35 years of driving experience. I've been to Hawaii,
Virginia Beach, VA; Sumter and Greenville, South Carolina;
Valdosta and Tifton, Georgia; Fairborn and Dayton, Ohio;
Palm Coast, Florida; Phoenix, Arizona and several dealers
in Bergen County, New Jersey. By far the best and most
reasonably priced of all dealer shops I've dealt with. Use
the shuttle to visit the mall, friend or restaurant in the
city area while your car is being fixed - NO CHARGE. Staff
is very friendly and fair. And relax, they will do it
right or fix it within reason!

Our starter went on a thursday and I took it to an
independent shop that was recommended. They kept it
overnight before they acknowledged they couldn't fix it. I
went to Darling's on friday afternoon. They fixed it in
one hour [4pm-5pm] snd my son was able to go to his
birthday party which was being held 100 miles away at
Grandmother's house. They charged $335but I was happy
because it was in a hard to get at spot.

Rick has treated me right since day 1. The prices are higher than an
independent shop, I'm sure, but I trust him and his crew to always do it
right the first time. The only thing this shop could do better is have
longer hours (though they are very accommodating when you can't be
back at the shop to pick your car up before they close). I used their
shuttle service once several years ago and was late for work, despite
allowing much more time than I thought was necessary to get there, but
I believe they have added vans to their courtesy fleet so that probably
would not happen again.
