A Positive Experience – The Foreign Car Hospital was recommended to my gf and I by a long-time Hyde Park resident who had had his car serviced at FCH for years. When the gf's Volvo was in an accident we took it first to FCH for estimates and some related repair work. Pat and his staff spent a good deal of time with us on the phone and in-person, discussing the options for the car given the damage, as well as performing some work himself. In addition, he recommended a good auto body place for the remainder of the work, and al... read more
Very dissatisfied – I asked Pat to look at a possible problem with the battery. The battery had died inexplicably a few days before I brought it in, and I was starting to notice symptoms of an electrical problem (flashing lights on the dashboard, a minor whirring noise that increased in pitch as the car accelerated).

Being on a somewhat budget and being told tha... read more
great hyde park mechanic – This is an old place owned by Pat, who still works there. He is very honest and will give your car the individual attention it deserves and carefully explain what is wrong. Don't be fooled by the rather messy disorganized shop- these guys are GOOD! they have always fixed all my auto problems. Can be a little more pricey than some other places. Still a little eccentric though. I think they only work on foreign cars and do not accept any credit cards or cheques ( cheques accepted if you can show a va... read more
