“Tuffy Tire & Auto Service fixed a leak in my tire fast and right. Communication stayed clear from start to finish. Service moved quickly without rushing the work. Pricing felt fair and transparent.
You get straight answers, solid work, and no hassle. I have no complaints and would return without hesitation.”
“This is a great shop! We've taken 3 of our vehicles to them now and every time they've fixed the problem the correct way the first time. I highly recommend this shop for any type of vehicle!”
“I brought my F150 in for a noise I was hearing more often and an oil change. It ended up after a very thorough inspection with pictures to support it that the truck needed some fundamental large things done. It only has 40,000 miles and we bought it used. It is a 2016. We love it and continue to need a truck. After a long conversation with Steve who runs the shop we agreed to axles, cellanoid, front and rear brakes, tail pipe support welding, ball joints, etc. They ordered the parts the Friday before Xmas, did all the work on Monday and Tuesday and I drove my like new lifetime truck out of the shop on Christmas Eve. It is the tidiest shop you will EVER see. I felt we decided together what must be done. I felt trust in Steve. Make Christian Brothers Auto your choice in the Barrington area.”
“Jason and Marcus are wonderful to deal with. Fair, honest pricing and quality work. They go above and beyond to make sure that my automotive issues are fixed properly and within the price quoted.
I have the utmost confidence in their mechanics to perform the work required”
“When I walk into Manfred, it's clear that Bruce knows what is going on. He has done it all a thousand times. And he is personally invested in the outcome. He wants to do it right the first time.
When I used to walk into the dealerships, I never got that feeling. It was HOPE for the best and pay 35% more.
I moved to Iowa this month. Will I return to Manfred and Bruce for service? Yes, I will.
Also, they work with you on scheduling. They know you. It's a family run business.”
“Twelve years ago I was in dire straits and AAC stepped up, going above and beyond to help me out of a jam. Three cars later, they still go out of their way every time. I can't say enough about them.”
“Sergio and his crew are awesome. I thought I needed to have my trans rebuilt but Sergio found the problem and saved me a huge bill. Definitely bringing any future trans work that I need done here!”
“Brought my new (used) 2019 Ford Fusion Hybrid in for an inspection, just to verify if there was anything I should be considered about as part of the used car purchase process. They confirmed they can inspect hybrids which was helpful for me. The inspection was less than two hours, and fairly thorough; gave me an idea of what does and doesn't need work on the car in the near future. Much appreciated.”

“I needed a last minute oil change before going on long road trip and they were able to squeeze me in the in at the last minute. Very friendly and honest. I usually go to another auto repair, but will definitely come back here in the future.”
“Adrian, Kody, Ian, and Ryan hooked me up by getting my oil, transmission, and cabin air filter changed out fast and efficiently! Definitely coming back here in the future!”

“I have been going to Chris for a few years now ever since my trans went out. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise because it helped me find Lakemoor Transmission. Since then Chris has helped keep my van going well over 200k miles. Whether its brakes, catalytic converter, oil and coolant leaks, serpentine belt. There is nothing he can't handle. He does great work for a great price. Great honest mechanics are hard to find. Look no further!”

“I love this place! Have had work done there many times. Manny and the other mechanics are professional and personable. Always explain what's going on with my cars. Highly recommend!”
“Rob’s Complete Automotive truly deserves recognition. I really appreciate the quality of their work and, just as importantly, the way they take care of people. It means a lot to have an automotive repair shop in town that genuinely supports the community and looks out for the general public. They’re honest, fair with pricing, and deliver great service you can trust. It’s clear they care about doing the job right and making sure customers feel confident and taken care of. I’m grateful to have a place like this locally and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them”
“No nonsense incredibly experienced straightforward and competent service provided for my 2018 Macan GTS. Definitely bring your German auto needs to Rick. You wont regret it!”
“Highly recommend Doug’s transmissions! They take great care of their customers and their vehicles. Came in with some transmissions problems and ended up needing a rebuild. Doug was very communicative and an all around great person to work with. Vehicle was done in a very timely manner, very fair pricing, and they have a great warranty! You can tell he loves what he does. Thanks again for the hard work.”
“SJM AutoWerks replaced my A/C compressor on my 2020 Volvo for a better price than the dealership. They were honest and fair priced and I will use them again in the future”

“I have been going to Mike for over 17 years. I have recommended both friends, family and anyone looking for a great mechanic. Mike is honest and knowledgeable, explains and shows what is going on with the vehicle being repaired and is very reasonably priced. It is great to know I have a mechanic I can trust and I will continue to go to Mike for anything.”
“Daniel is a dedicated mechanic, he will give good advice and will repair quickly, relatively cheaply compared to other workshops. He has already repaired 2 of my cars and I am satisfied. I recommend Daniel to everyone, he is always nice and smiling, you can trust him with your cars. He does not charge for replacing parts that are good, as other workshops do. I paid about $450 for replacing 2 tires and shock absorbers, and another workshop told me $1,200 because they proposed replacing several other parts.”
“Dino is a great guy! Knowledgable, helpful, efficient and honest. My family and I have been going for years and years and we’ve never had an issue. He never overcharges nor tries to sell you something you don’t need. 10/10, Definitely recommend.”
“I went to their open house 10/18/25, and everyone treated me like they already knew me. All of the employees are passionate about their work, and they even mounted my tires, welded my exhaust, and shined my tires for free. If you have a saab or a volvo, take it here. You will get a quality job and probably make some friends.”
“Chris and the team at C.A.R.R.S. handled my wife’s tire issue quickly and efficiently, providing great value for the service. The appointment was right on schedule, and they made sure she was back on the road safely. We’ll continue to trust C.A.R.R.S. with all of our vehicles!”
“Great place! Had a really good experience here. Xavier is very friendly, professional, and efficient. I appreciated how they took the time to check everything and let me know the condition of my vehicle without any pressure. The waiting area was clean and the service was done quickly. Highly recommended!!”
“I brought in my Chevy equinox and had Mike check on my brakes and he did a great job. Thanks Mike. He did work on my Ford Taurus years ago. My Boss Jake told me about him.”
“Jason from Crystal Lake transmission is very professional and responsive to my questions and phone calls regarding my notorious 65RFE transmission. I brought the truck in. He was able to diagnose it very quickly and the turnaround time was great. It’s very unfortunate that I needed to get the transmission rebuilt, but that being said I could not recommend Jason and Crystal Lake transmissions enough he did a great job and I’ll be coming back with all my vehicles to him Jason thank you!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Steve and the service he and his staff gave to us. They did a great job fixing the car and made sure everything was running perfectly. I highly recommend them for anyone’s car problems.”
“I had a great experience at Car-X Auto Service. I went in for a routine oil change, and the whole visit was smooth and professional. The staff were very friendly and easy to work with, and the waiting area was clean and comfortable.
While servicing the vehicle, they also did a full inspection and took the time to explain a few things that needed attention. I really appreciated that they clearly explained the issues and what the repair options would be, but there was absolutely no pressure to do anything on the spot.
Good service, honest communication, and a comfortable place to wait. I would definitely recommend Car-X to anyone looking for reliable auto service. ?”
“These guys will take care of you and make sure you are safe at the lowest cost. If you have an older Van (I have an 84 GMC Vandura) they are knowledgable and will get the job done. Can recommend these guys enough!!!!”
“I had some significant work that needed to be done on my Wrangler. Jeff took the time to discuss the vehicle inspection and my options with me. We ultimately came up with a plan to split the work between now and spring. The time to complete the work and the cost were very reasonable.”
