EXCELLENT!!!

My family and I had been on the road for 10 months when a thumping sound and vibration began coming from our vehicle.

I contacted Bob's Bar Harbor Auto Repair and although they were stuffed with work they allowed me to bring in the vehicle so that they could take a look. Within 30 minutes they had the issue identified.

They ordered the part and had it installed a day earlier than what was estimated. Wilder and Nate were knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. They did excellent work and we're upfront about costs before any work began. I would encourage anyone who needed their vehicle looked at to contact these guys.

Cant recommend these guys enough. I was recommended here by several people who have lived here for years and I have not been disappointed by their services. I have run into several issues with my car this winter after moving up here and they have done such a great job at helping me out and being accommodating. They have managed to get me in last minute and always try to get my car in as soon as they can. As a young woman who knows just about nothing about cars, I realize I am a prime target for mechanics trying to make extra money. These guys are always honest with me about what is going on with my car and I fully trust them to not overcharge me. Wilder even helped me out and drove with me to work this morning with my car and took it back to the shop so they can look at it while I am at work. They all truly care about the people they service and I will be bringing any vehicle I own to them as long as I live here!

In September 2023, I took a road trip and was 2,000 miles from home and needed service. Several places recommededBob's Bar Harbor Auto Repair. I was very pleased and grateful that he got me in and promptly out. Thank you!

Our car broke down in Acadia National Park on a Saturday afternoon while we were visiting from Massachusetts. It got towed to Bobs around 430pm and the shop was closed. Around 630pm we went back to the shop and were going to try some simple fixes we had found on YouTube.

Nick happened to be there working on a car but obviously this was not during his regular work hours. I let him know we were just checking some things on our car and he asked what was not working. He immediately came over and popped the hood. Diagnosed the issue within 5 minutes and set to work on fixing it. Again at 630pm on a Saturday.

Nick found a small piece in the shop and fixed the car so that we could get home (we were leaving the next day). It would have cost us so much more money to stay until Monday potentially rent a car etc. and he fixed it without even asking. He did remind us this was a temporary fix, showed us how to fix it if we got stuck again and that we needed to get a permanent fix once we got home.

I would 100% recommend this shop to anyone. Their service is above and beyond. Thank you so much for helping us out this weekend.

I don’t have enough positive words to do justice for these guys. Our Ford van gave a service engine error while in Acadia. The Ford places were unable to help us for days. We were referred to Bob’s by some locals so we took our van there the next morning and was there before they opened. Obviously we didn’t have an appointment but the guys worked us in, diagnosed the problem and ordered the necessary sensor. They were fantastic to work with and had us back on our vacation without a hitch. I particularly appreciated their calmness and easy going demeanor. Helped with my stress level! Nick’s certainly a top-notch mechanic! Thanks again guys and keep up the great work and service!

In and out in 3 hours with a repaired tire with no appointment. They swapped my tire requiring repair with my spare so I had my car with zero downtime. Spent my time enjoying Bar Harbor. I wrench my cars and appreciate the knowledge of the mechanics. Thanks guys.

On 7/31/23, I went to the shop 30 minutes before opening. I explained to the mechanic that “I noticed a small nail in my tire, had been driving the car and the tire pressure had NOT decreased at all in past 24 hours, but I wanted to know whether it needed fixing”, the mechanic told me he can patch it and quickly was about to remove the nail while it was still in the parking lot (not inside the shop). I asked him to hold up, “before you remove that nail, what is price? And wait time?” He answered $46 and maybe 1.5 hours, I didn’t have that time and felt price was steep for a patch. so I moved on. (If nail was removed and it had penetrated, I would have been held captive to whatever price and timing they wanted. I just didn’t understand the rush to remove the nail)

While driving thru Acadia in my convertible I heard a click click click and pulled over to find a roofing nail in the rear wheel of my Porsche. Bobs auto took us immediately and fixed the hole with a patch. Thank God for Chris the Tech and Amy in the office!
