Terrible, lying, cheating, not professional......do not get your car serviced here!!!! They definitely take advantage of women and charge out the wazoo........they only cater to the old customers that they have had for years, not treating everyone as equals....CRAP

Great Little Shop! – If you're like me, you always have a sense of hesitation when you decide to check out a new mechanic shop. Even if you know your way around a car, you can still feel condescended to when talking to professional mechanics. Well...not at Modern Service! From the time I walked in the door, I was treated as though I'd been going there for the past 30 years. Everyone I spoke to was knowledgeable, friendly and HONEST. I've never felt like Modern Service has tried to B.S. me. In fact, I recently had several rep... read more

My advice: DON'T GO THERE!!! – I went to Modern Service because my car's check engine light was on and when I went to another shop for inspection, I was told that there maybe a leak somewhere in my car. I'm not really educated when it comes to cars so I figured I could go to Modern Service since it was close by and they'd be able to check and let me know what I need to do. I get there and talked with the older gentleman behind the counter and he tells me that he will "check on it first to see where the leak is" so I asked hi... read more

Good Reputable Shop – I'm new to the RTP area and had to find a shop to do some work on my car. Based on the reviews here, I decided to check out Modern Service. I have in the past, done a lot of work on my own car, so I have a good idea of how much parts and labor should cost. They charged a fair price for the work performed and were willing to use some parts that I had bought from a wrecker. Some shops will put up a lot of resistance if you want to supply your own parts, so I appreciated that. After I got the car back, it ... read more

Fan for 26 years – Been using Modern Service ever since moving here in 1984. Ownership even changed and I've seen no downgrade in service. They always fix the problem and don't jack up the price by finding something else wrong. Plus, when there's nothing wrong they won't gouge you. I'm even comfortable sending my wife there with car without having to check up on them. Thanks for many great years of service.

Best Mechanics Ever!!!! – I was really delightfully surprised that they were able to get my engine light off and fix the issue with my evap canister for about 150 less than another place in Cary! They were so good about explaining the issue and didn't jack up the price of the part, not like the quote that I got from the other place. It's great that they don't try to rip you off, and being a woman walking into a service station, is just asking for trouble. They were reasonable, and even did a diagnostic even though I had paid... read more

Modern Service Repair Shop – I started becoming a customer three years ago when I first moved to Cary. My automobile which arrived via transport carrier had some damage on one side and Modern Service repaired it promptly. Since then, I have been back for numerous repairs and maintenance issues. I have always been impressed by the friendliness of the staff and their honesty. Once, to save money, I had an oil change done at the AAA on Chapel Hill Road. They came back to alert me to the fact that there was an "oil leaking onto ... read more

Not the same Modern Service – Be forewarned, the owner with whom we've been happily dealing for many, many years is sick and not running the business any longer. The guys who are running it now are slipshod mechanics and crooks. They don't do even basic diagnostics and mark up the parts they use well above retail price. They took advantage of a 78 year old woman. My mother brought her car into this shop recently because it was leaking power steering fluid onto the exhaust manifold and smoking a lot. The trick was, you had to... read more
