Kassa Auto Repair is an owner-operated auto repair shop in the heart of East Rutherford, New Jersey. It’s the kind of place that feels a little harder to find these days — a single, experienced mechanic running his own bay, taking time to explain what your car needs, and standing personally behind every repair that leaves the lot.

That mechanic is Sławek Kassa — a hands-on technician who turned a lifelong passion for cars into a thriving business at 946 Paterson Avenue. After years of working under other people’s signs, Sławek took over the shop formerly known as Lester Auto Repair and reopened it under his own name, with one simple promise: the same convenient location, the same standard of honest, quality service, and a guarantee on every part and every hour of labor.

Today, Kassa Auto Repair serves drivers from across Bergen County — Clifton, Passaic, Wallington, Garfield, Rutherford, Carlstadt, and the surrounding communities. We specialize in mechanical repair, computer diagnostics, tires, and AC service for all makes and models — American, European, and Asian. From a quick oil change to a full engine rebuild, every job is treated the same way: diagnose first, quote clearly, repair properly.

And because we’re proudly part of New Jersey’s Polish-American community, you can talk to us in English or Polish — whichever feels more natural. Clear communication is the first step to a good repair.

The Journey

From the toolbox to the front desk.

  1. 01▸ The Craft

    Years on the Lift

    Sławek learned the trade the long way — years of hands-on work on every kind of vehicle, from European sedans to American pickups to Asian-built family cars.

  2. 02▸ The Shop

    Taking Over Lester’s

    When the longtime owners of Lester Auto Repair stepped away, Sławek took over the bay at 946 Paterson Avenue — keeping the location, raising the standard.

  3. 03▸ The Promise

    Kassa Auto Repair, Today

    An owner-operated shop with one mechanic accountable to every customer, every repair, and every guarantee. No upsells, no guesswork — just the job done right.

Languages & Community

We’re a familiar voice for Polish-speaking drivers who want to talk through their car’s issues in their own language — and a trusted local shop for every English-speaking neighbor on Paterson Avenue.

No matter which language you start the conversation in, you’ll get the same answer: an honest diagnosis, a fair quote, and a guarantee on the repair.
