Summary

AI Generated from Google reviews

The business receives overwhelmingly positive reviews. Customers frequently praise owner Chris and his team for deep electronics knowledge, careful system design and clean installs with hidden wiring, often on Porsche, BMW and other high-end cars. Reviewers highlight the time Chris spends explaining the finished system, tuning it with the customer and recommending gear without pressure. Several mention anti-theft systems fitted so they look factory. Complaints are rare; the one recent critical review said the amp wiring was poorly done and needed costly rework elsewhere, though it praised the customer service.

    I took my Jeep in because the screen and Apple CarPlay weren’t working, and I had such a great experience! Everyone was super kind, helpful, and welcoming. They were also extremely efficient and got everything taken care of quickly. I really appreciate the great service and would 100% recommend them to anyone!

    The customer service was good that's why I gave 2 stars. My wiring and sound was done so poorly I thought water had got into the amp. Instead the work was poorly done with cheap wires and a handmade restrictor. I had to go somewhere else and pay 1k more to get the sound right. Disappointed

    Chris and his team at Third Garage did an amazing job upgrading my car’s sound system. They replaced all the speakers and installed amps and a subwoofer, and I honestly couldn’t believe the difference. Everything sounds fuller and clearer, and the bass is deep and clean without overpowering the music. It blends so well that I can’t even tell it’s coming from the trunk. What I appreciated most was that Chris never pressured me to buy anything. Throughout the process, he helped me get the sound I wanted while looking for ways to save me money. They also installed sound-deadening material in the doors. When Chris noticed rattling in the trunk, he addressed it with additional sound-deadening to make sure everything sounded right. He also made sure the subwoofer was securely mounted. I really appreciated that attention to detail. I’m extremely happy with how everything turned out. Highly recommend Chris and Third Garage!

    I can’t say enough about the phenomenal job The Third Garage did upgrading my sound system. The OEM system was so muddy and really lacked the dynamics and detail I was looking for. After the upgrade, it was honestly like hearing my music for the first time. The sound is so much cleaner and more natural, and I’m hearing details and dynamics that were completely missing before. They did an incredible job, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend The Third Garage!

    Very good experience here. They were professional, quick, reasonable, and did a fantastic job replacing my older Hyundai's touch screen display panel. My old one had delaminated, which was a safety hazard for backing up, and in general, it had gotten so bad that I could barely see anything on the screen, which worked only sporadically. I ordered a new unit, and brought it here. They only took one hour, and their customer service is top-notch. Thank you a million times! My car looks and feels brand new again, as you can see from the before & after pics.

    This company deserves the absolute highest rating possible! Im no stranger to vehicle electronics and repairs. Ive owned Auto body shops for over 40 years but Chris is on a different level. He is a tech guru with amazing knowledge and professionalism. They took care of a security system that was installed by another company which refused to give us any information on the features and operations of the system and even sent a rep to the the dealership because they couldnt fix it. Thank you for everthing Third Garage!

    Super great experience with them getting a sweet system installed on my car. They had a waiting area for me so I didn’t have to Uber, they were quick, covered all my questions, and had great customer service. I highly recommend!

    I just had Apple CarPlay added to my Aston Martin by Christian and his team. Flawless job! Christian also spent quite a while with me when I picked it up to explain how the system works in this car and to troubleshoot a couple of settings. I am super happy!!! Don’t hesitate to bring your car to him for high end audio, radar detection, custom interior work, etc!

    These guys are amazing! Christian, Alex and the entire team at The Third Garage are the A players in the game. They upgraded and retrofit my 911 cab with new amp speakers built a custom woofer and enclosure that blend in in the passenger foot well. I went with Mosconi, amps, Gladen speakers and a focal 10” subwoofer The sound is insane even driving on the highway with the top down.

    As others have previously echoed, Chris and his team are thorough in detail. I had 2 different security systems from 2 different manufacturers installed which complicates install as you can imagine, while not compromising the OEM security system or affecting the OEM warranty. As an aside, I I also asked them if they could install a rear cam which was not part of the scheduled job, but they accommodated the request all the same. End result was flawless, and the looked OEM. Thanks Chris!
