Review from Mark L.

I switched (after reading the reviews on Yelp) to Burdi's for excellent work at a less expensive price than a dealer. They offer pickup and drop off at the near by Metra stations.
They gave a list of items that need to be fixed or soon to be concerned about but didn't push any of them on me.
They worked with my extended warranty plan!

I came back next year for my service and to fix a vibration. No problem again. They worked with my extended warranty to get some things fixed. They also recommended I visit a MB dealer to get my brake pump reprogrammed since it was throwing an error. -

I brought my CL 500 in to Burdi's for work on the brakes. I was very happy with the work done at the time and the time it took was impressive. It has been a few months now and my brakes started squealing very loudly. I brought the car into MB and had the brakes inspected, they assured me that my rotors were not replaces as stated on the invoice by Burdi's. It was explained to me that the work they did made my brakes worse and I have a large ridge in the front rotors.
I had to have the brakes completely replaced after less than 6 months after Burdi's repair visit. I am out the $560 I paid Burdi's and I have to pay for the same work again, looking back on this I would have not taken my vehicle here. -

I searched for an alternative to taking my Mercedes Benz to the dealership for service when I had a bad experience at the dealership with overcharging and some damage to my car.
Burdi's Motor Works' website came up in my search results, and the information on the company website described exactly the services I was looking for. Burdi's Motor Works' website has a great Q&A section with details on the different types of services that modern Mercedes Benz's need with their computerized service indicators. The website also has some general guidelines about how long certain items should last and when they should be replaced.
The website brags that prices for repairs at Burdi's Motor Works are generally half the cost of what you would pay at the dealership. I happened to require the same brake service within days. My dealership charged me $750 for front brake pad and rotor service.
And at Burdi's Motor Works, the price for replacing just the brake pads was $250 and the owner of the shop let me know that on most Mercedes Benz models, the brake rotors ordinarily last 60,000 miles. My car had only 19,500 miles.
I have completely lost faith in my dealer and I probably won't be back since I feel like I was taken advantage of there. And as a testament to the boast on the website, my repair was more like 66% off.
Carmine Burdi is the owner of the shop, and is a Certified Mercedes Factory Trained Technician. Look him up when you need to get your Mercedes Benz repaired, and do yourself a favor by saving yourself a load of cash. -

Quality, Honesty, Fair Price. Took an E-320 there for suspension work and SRS issues. Also called my local dealer who wanted twice as much to fix the SRS issue. Carmine is a busy guy. His staff knows MB's. I found him to be fair with price, and while not perfect with communications, he was what I consider easy to deal with. My past experience with dealer service was never perfect and always expensive. Carmine cares. It shows in his service and the bottom line. Will be back when, not if my MB needs service. Thanks Carmine and your staff!

I found Burdi's Motors on the internet and came straight after calling.
It was very nice of Mr B to show us the problems of the breaks and springs. He also told me the spring and paint damages were caused by the salt for melting snow. He did not push us to change any parts unless it's 100% necessary. Mr B is definitely a very reliable person that I can count on for my car. -

Burdi's is the best place to take your Mercedes, period.
They are about 50% the cost of similar work than dealership. Just because there is a drop in price does not mean that the quality of the labor drops they consistently do excellent work and fix everything on my car and let me know future issues that might occur. Carmine especially will tell me exactly what is up with my car without any bs if something does not need to be changed he wont do it and let me know that I still got a couple months before I need work done. This type of honesty is hard to find.
They also listen to you when the dealer will not. The dealer would not listen to me when I kept on telling them that my car was making a funny noise and told me that it is ok but Burdi's not only listened but found the problem and fixed it. (wheel hub)
Burdis is the place I will continue to go and I recommend them highly to anyone that owns a Mercedes. -

they do great work at a great price. all the latest gizmos & gadgets to diagnose with very fair prices They work on my grandfathers 1970 MB and my family's new model MB's. Compare pricing to FJ and you'll be astonished... And still have MB Mastertech working on car. A+++
