3 businesses in South Yarmouth have at least 15 reviews, enough for a rating to mean something, and 2 of those hold 4.5 stars or better. Half of them have 91 or more reviews. A shop with a long history and a 4.6 is a safer call than a perfect 5.0 from a handful of people.
All vehicles registered in Massachusetts must pass an inspection every year, and a newly bought vehicle must be inspected within 7 days of registration. Vehicles with onboard diagnostic systems that are less than 15 years old must also pass a yearly emissions test. Most inspections cost $35 at licensed stations.
