“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.”
“Patrick is great in explaining the service that is needed and/or was done on my car. He takes the time to answer any & all questions that I have. The mechanics are always thorough and respectful of my car. McLean Auto Repair is the best!”
“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!”
“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.”
“I visited Braash Automotive to have my brakes inspected before winter driving. Lenny did a thorough job of checking everything and explained in detail the condition of my brakes and when I might need to replace them. He also checked my tires, tire pressure and coolant. A friend referred me to Braash and said he was honest and fair. I’ve been looking for a good mechanic with these attributes and feel like I have finally found one at Braash Automotive!”
“Website states a closing time, voicemail states a different time, I was there 15 minutes before the time posted on website and they were closed! Check with an actual person for correct times!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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”
“I had a lot of work done on my vehicle, Right they gave me MORE than fair deal!!! I APPRECIATE ALL THEIR COMMUNICATION on THE WORK THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE AND BRITTANY IS AWESOME!”

“Manny was friendly, keeping me updated on progress of vehicle. Andy got the work done within the time expected. He found things I knew were an issue and even some new things.”
“i needed to get basically a new (manual) transmission for my 2004 VW Passat. At the same time, the 2014 Kia Forte i gave my son blew out it's motor. Mark Decraene took care of everything for me, and both vehicles are running better than ever. It cost a pretty penny, but Mark made sure he got the highest quality parts for the least amount of dough. He kept me informed through the entire process, and his honesty and professionalism are remarkable in an industry that can easily take advantage of a car dumb-dumb like myself. Do yourself a favor and go to Decraens in Woodstock if you have engine trouble and want the job done right for a reasonable amount of paper. i couldn't recommend him more highly (well, maybe if he was a Sox fan instead of bleeding Cubbie blue)”
“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!”
“I had two great experiences with Marty and Josh. The replaced my starter which was non functional and struts which were both broken. This is a great shop with honest men running it. I will be taking all my business here in the future. Great prices and honest communication.”
“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”
“New to the area and tried a different mechanic shop for some routine maintenance. This routine maintenance caused my transmission to act up and appeared it wasn’t done correctly. Brought it into Coyote, explained the situation and they explained the procedure and how it should be done. Their off the cuff knowledge made me feel comfortable that they would address the problem appropriately. They were able to squeeze me into their scheduled and in less than a day, truck was ready for me. JJ and Joe gave me a recommendations for next items to address and timelines on my truck. I found my new trusted auto repair shop and if you need one too, check out Coyote Auto Center.”
“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.”
“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!!”
“Absolutely fantastic company. They went above and beyond to build me a killer transmission at a fantastic price. Dave and Caroline made sure everything was exactly what I wanted/needed and were very helpful with any questions I had. 10/10 will use them on every build from here on outService: Transmission”
“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.”

“I was referred by multiple people in the area to definitely bring my car here. Kind people. Very professional and I trusted them to be honest and they did what they said they would do. Wonderful service. I would highly recommend them to friends and family! Thank you Peters Motors.”
“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!!”
“I wish I would have came here sooner. The people there are the best and honest. Showed me everything that was wrong with my automobile. If I could give them 10 stars I would”
“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.”
