David and his staff went above and beyond from my son. My son is dyslexic and took the time with him to make sure he was able to pass his permit test the first time. When I first called about the school I wanted to make sure they would be accommodating to his needs as he needs extra time to test. David reassured me the school would make sure my son was successful during this process , even offering before class time to go over previous lessons. I spoke with him several times and he would provide updates on his progress. They take a personal investment in each one of their students. From beginning to end Mr. K's was amazing. Five Stars all the way. Read Less

I would rate no stars if could...but have to give 1 star in order to leave review.. Driving instructor never showed up and even claimed to have rang the doorbell. When I spoke to lady who identified herself as owner she had driver bring her to house later in day as if this is confirmation that he was there earlier in the day.... "Buyer beware" believe the reviews that are warning you. My experience is that they do not accept responsibility and are not professional toward customers; the owner would rather come to my home to argue with a customer in defense of a lying employee that never showed up for their scheduled appointment.

Sad to say Mr. K's Auto is NOT someplace I recommend to anyone, ever. We were a return customer for Mr. K's, I had previously sent 3 of my children to Mr. K's under the previous owner and was very pleased with the company, however the company was sold and new management came in. It was by far the most unpleasant experience we have encountered. It took my child over a year to get their license. There was a lot of information that was not made known to us until the last day of the class. We were informed regarding the limited number of instructors and that they were in the process of hiring staff. Several months in and they still were not staffed appropriately, there were no realistic time frames for teenagers to take classes unless you wanted to pull your child from school to have a road lesson, which I DID just so that they could get the lesson in. I tried to go to another school and was told I would need a certificate that my child had taken the class time if I did not want to pay for that again. Management refused to provided me with anything to help us get out. I stopped asking for any type of reimbursement as I was told that was not going to happen. There was one excuse after another, multiple emails, phone calls back and forth without any resolution other than we had to bite the bullet and finish with them. Avoid them at all cost. Read Less

NEGATIVE 1000 stars. Don't spend a dime on this place. Very poor run and managed. They always call with an excuse why the need to cancel the driving or observation. Never calls back and always have attitude if u do speak to someone like you are inconveniencing him. Driving is supposed to be for an hour and student returns home within 45 minutes. Also on lessons I see the car sitting outside Dunkin' Donuts for him to get coffee and the 20 minutes he is inside he considered that driving time. Guess it's time to file a formal complaint with registry and get this guy shut down. Who's with me Read Less

DO NOT SEND YOUR STUDENT DRIVER HERE. They by NO MEANS offer a flexible schedule. They tell you your child will be able to get 2 lessons a month, but with no availability at any time after 1:00 PM on weekdays (no weekends) for over 1 month and a half that is hardly 2 lessons a month. Management does not return phone calls or emails, he is wildly overwhelmed. Their website lies when they claim to have 4 instructors. They have 2 driving instructors, one of them very part time (and he's the good one). When calling other local driving schools seeking one that could fulfill the lessons in a reasonable time frame, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM ASKED IF WE WERE COMING FROM MR. K's! Even though Mr. Currier admitted to me that they don't disclose a no refund policy he refused to comply with my request for a refund for the remaining driving lessons - so they keep your money but don't offer the services they claim to. Call MV Auto, they don't overbook their classes. Read Less

BUYER BEWARE!!!!! THIS TOOK ALMOST A YEAR TO GET A LICENSE AND 10 MONTHS TO GET ALL THE CLASSES!!!!! If I could give this company a -5 stars I would, 5 STARS DOWN!!!!! THIS IS THE WORST COMPANY!!!! This is the worst business I have ever encountered. First the owner is the only one that my son ever got when he was able to get a class. Apparently this company was bought sometime in 2015 and shortly thereafter all the people must have quit. A fried recommended them to us... and there were the cheapest around, but that was only part of the selection process. We were told they were fast and they didn’t have any issues. Well I guess that all ended right before we signed up because they only had one driver when my son started to attempt to get hours in with them. They have a website but they barely update it, they have a policy of 10 DAYS BETWEEN CLASSES, they are OVERBOOKED, the Don’t RETURN CALLS TO PARENTS, THEY DON’T ANSWER THEIR PHONE, the owner sets his clock 10 MINUTES FAST and he COMPLAINS THAT STUDENTS ARE LATE. The other day I went to drop off my son and we waited for 30 minutes for a final lesson, I made him call and the owner said he would be there in 10 minutes, when he finally left with MR k’s I went home. 5 minutes after I was home my son walked in and the lesson was over? In September my son was having issue getting appointments, I called several times and the company never returned my call. I was biding my time till I would write this review, DO NOT EVER GO HERE!!!!!! THIS IS THE WORST COMPANY AROUND!!!! DO NOT PAY THEM FOR ANYTHING!!!!!! Finally after months of waiting and limited class availability because this guy is oversold and has no employees therefore he cannot accommodate your child in a timely manner and it looks like he must be so difficult to work with he can’t keep employees. This week my we paid a extra 110 dollars to have the registry come and test as a group with apparently another school and other people. We brought a check, this seemed to be a issue because the owners wanted cash (maybe they are so strapped for money they only want cash) whatever happened to accepting CC? Maybe this is some under the table stuff they don’t want a record of for the IRS? Either way they made a big deal of it and kept saying it over and over again to my son. So much so that they told us we have to go to the registry because we didn’t “Pay Early”. Today my son finally go this license at the registry…. BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE… because Mr. K’s didn’t know the date when we finally go the registry we had to wait till they changed it in the system from some arbitrary day in the future to Monday this week. Most likely because we paid whit a check!!!! Just another screw job by these INCOMPETANT “business OWNERS” DO NOT GO HERE!!!!! See More Read Less
