"I went with Sal at Triton Hybrid repair and he was awesome. He helped me to find the right solution for my timeline with the car and pricing was extremely fair and transparent. He was very kind and helped me to learn more about the car and needed up keep."

"Sal at Triton is awesome! Totally reasonable pricing. He started his business because his mom went to get her Prius repaired and the bill was astronomical. He bought equipment and learned to refurbish the battery."

Honesty Expertise Save Thousands Transparency
Saved $10,000+ vs dealer
"After being quoted over $11,000 by the dealership, they replaced my hybrid battery with a used pack for a fraction of the cost. Sal was knowledgeable, honest, and took the time to explain everything. Hard to find a shop that specializes in hybrids and actually makes you feel confident in the work, and they definitely did."
B. H.
Hybrid Battery Replacement
"The Prius Whisperer"
"I found Triton on Next Door and was I glad I did. He is truly the Prius Whisperer. I have used him twice and he is excellent. My car came out running beautifully. He is honest and efficient. I would recommend him to anyone and I drive over 30 miles to use him. I wouldn't take my car to anyone else."
Judy Kelly
Repeat Prius Customer
Same-day fix
"Sal is a commensurate professional. He made short work of what we thought would be a long and expensive repair and had my daughter's Prius running within an hour for a great price. I'd give him 10 stars if I could! He knows Priuses inside and out and goes the extra mile for his customers."
J. Osman
2004 Toyota Prius
Honest to a fault
"Sal was able to read the codes and diagnose a bad HV battery and other issues. He advised that if there were no sentimental reasons to keep the old Prius I should not put anymore money on it. Many mechanics would try to do the repairs anyway and make money. Very honest shop. Highly recommended."
Nick
Older Prius
Diagnostics
"Sal drives laps around every other mechanic/dealership I've taken my Prius to. He had a family emergency but still followed up, successfully diagnosed the issue, and FaceTimed me from home to confirm it. That's the kind of guy you keep around."
Deedar
Toyota Prius
Still running strong
"Sal is the GOAT of Prius mechanics. My 15 y/o Prius is still running strong thanks to him."
Mark Owolabi
15-year-old Prius
Drives 30 min to visit
"Sal is a rockstar. I bought a new-to-me Toyota Highlander Hybrid and wanted it checked out. He did an entire inspection, including the health of the hybrid battery, and walked me around the car explaining everything. Not once did he make me feel stupid for asking questions. It's a 30-minute drive and he's easily earned a repeat customer."
Zoe Philippides
Toyota Highlander Hybrid
Fair pricing
"There's not enough great things to say about Sal. He does honest, straightforward, and excellent quality work at a fair price. He took the time to explain things, fixed the problems, and taught me things about my car that I didn't know. I'll take my car back to him in a heartbeat."
Levi Adelman
2007 Prius
Solved what Toyota couldn't
"Best in the game! Especially if you own a Prius, Sal knows these cars inside and out. I was able to drive away confidently when NOBODY else, not even Toyota, could tell me the problem. Great guy and my go-to since using his services."
