“5 stars all the way. John was the one who took my car and helped me set up a tow for the next day. I have a 65 thunderbird and its nice to get someone who knows old cars! John was super friendly, engaged in conversation and made sure i was taken care of on drop off and that i had a way back. Friendliness and customer service is what makes a business and he provided it! Thank you ?”
“The staff are truly excellent. They are always upbeat and genuinely ready to help and get the job done. They don't browbeat their clientele and never try and sell you anything you don't need. Their facility is kept clean and orderly. They are prompt and courteous. I don't trust anyone else for my oil changes.”
“If I could give them 10 stars I would! We took my husband's truck here last night after the brakes went out and it's already done and ready to be picked up. Not only are they super nice and quick it cost a fraction of what we were expecting to pay.”
“I would like to sincerely thank Helmkamp Auto Service for the excellent work they did servicing and repairing my 2006 Bounder RV. They performed a thorough inspection, addressed all of the major issues, and completed the work as quickly as parts became available.
What I especially appreciate is their honesty. They do not push unnecessary repairs but focus on what truly needs attention, while making me aware of items that can wait. Their professionalism, integrity, and quality workmanship give me complete confidence in their service.
I highly recommend Helmkamp Auto Service to anyone looking for a dependable and trustworthy shop.”

“I talked with Bob at the body shop in Dorsey. Unfortunately the body shop is not on AAA’s approved repair shops. THEY SHOULD BE. I was disappointed to find out they weren’t. If they were, without a doubt I would have had the repairs done there even though I live more than 80 miles away in Missouri. That’s how confident that he would’ve done a great job on my vehicle. Aljets automotive shop in Staunton IS AAA approved.”

As a woman, it can sometimes feel intimidating dealing with car repairs, but Mike was professional, honest, and made me feel completely comfortable and confident in their work. Really appreciated how trustworthy and professional he was. My car looks PERFECT — highly recommend!”

“Took my vette in there for lifter noise, Tim and his boys jumped right into it. Came to the conclusion it had a bad cam and a lifter was stuck in the motor. Tore the engine down found out it was just put together to sell the car. Sold me one of his rebuilt small blocks, very professional service, fast and courteous. Highly recommended”
“I woke up Saturday morning to a flat tire. My wife called and was told if I could get it there, he could look at it. I was able to get the tire aired up, so I drove it to the garage where the owner rearranged things to fit me in. He was very professional, explained things, and was able to fix my tire at a very reasonable price. I will definitely reuse this garage.”
