Greg Reardon is the service manager, who joined Arborway in 2004 with previous car dealership experience and who takes time to explain to customers what is going on with their car. Thai, Karl, Gino and Eugenio are the technicians, described as a four man crew skilled in all vehicle systems who work as a team. The shop's motto, stamped on their shirts, is The Safe Way, The Right Way, The Arbor Way.

The website does not publish prices, rates or fees for any of this work, does not state how long any repair takes, and does not say which parts or tire brands the shop stocks. It also does not mention motorcycle, RV, heavy truck, diesel, bodywork or collision repair, so a customer with a vehicle or a job outside ordinary car service should call and ask before booking. For a cost estimate or a quote on a specific repair, contact the shop directly during its appointment hours.

Where Arborway Auto works
Lists Topeka, Boston, and Jamaica Plain as a location. Names South and Massachusetts as a service area. Areas beyond these are not published.
Prices
Arborway Auto does not publish prices on its website. There is no price list and no pricing page: no rates, no fees, no hourly labor rate and no cost estimate for any service, including oil changes, brakes, tires, alignment and balancing, timing belt replacement, exhaust systems, emission repairs and Massachusetts state inspection. Nothing on the site gives a figure, a range or a starting-from price, so any quote has to come from the shop itself.
To get an estimate or a quote, call (617) 524-4505 during the appointment hours of Monday through Friday, 7:30AM to 5:00PM. The site has no online quote request form, no request-an-estimate button and no email address.

The site also publishes no warranty. There is no parts or labor warranty statement, no mileage or time guarantee on repairs, and no nationwide or roadside warranty program mentioned anywhere. Payment methods, financing, discounts and coupons are likewise not published.
What the site does describe is how the shop says it advises customers: it states that Arborway Auto will advise you on what your vehicle needs to be fixed today, what can wait, and most importantly will tell you when it is simply time to purchase a new vehicle, and that the business prides itself on total honesty. That is a statement about advice, not about what anything costs.

The site publishes nothing else about inspections. It does not say whether inspection is walk-in or whether an appointment or booking is needed, does not give the inspection price, cost or fee, does not describe the re-inspection or retest policy or what happens after a failed inspection, and does not state how long an inspection takes or how busy the bay is on a given day. It lists no Saturday, Sunday or holiday inspection hours. Anyone who needs any of those details should phone the shop during the hours above and ask rather than assume.
