The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and down to earth. Can't can't afford all the repairs at one time? They'll give you a report of their inspection and prioritize which repairs or replacements need to occur, based on your budget. They'll be frank about repairs that may not have to be done immediately, and recommend when indeed your vehicle should return.I started out as a customer of the Gages Lake shop, at the time residing down the street from The Gages Lake road garage. As I have since moved further north, I now visit their Lake Villa shop; once again, thankfully being a short walk away.That said, even if I were 50 mi away I would still prefer to bring my vehicles here... They're trustworthy, competent, and practical. Heck, at both shops there have been occasions when they found less expensive ways to fix an issue and subsequently charged me LESS than their original quote... Passing on the savings to me.

Thank you to Ken and Gages Lake Auto. Brought my vehicle in to get my wheel bearing fixed. They did a good job of finding other issues with my vehicle. Mind you those issue that were found I knew about awhile back but I sort of put it off. Had them fixed it for a fair price. But the thing was they went above and beyond to check on the vehicle with being told too. The first impression to me is always the best impression. Thank you guys.Update: ★★★★★"My family have been going to this shop for years now. Ken, CJ and the team is amazing. They would not try to up sell you on anything you do not need like other mechanic shops. Brought my vehicle in and they found and fixed the issue with a reasonable price. Even went above and beyond and replaced my ceased caliper as a courtesy. How many shop would do that for you? Thank you guys. #SupportLocalBusiness "- B. H.

Super honest, professional and clean. Did a great job quickly and was affordable. There's a place to sit and wait and not worry about where to go. Not crowded like others nearby. Recommend 1000%

Gages Lake Automotive took in my vehicle on short notice after my air conditioning died unexpectedly. Could not be happier they were able to accommodate me as it was in the mid 90's outside and miserable out. They thoroughly checked over my system and discovered it was in need of charging. I was given a courtesy vehicle to drive while mine was being fixed. I had my car back the same day, and everything went smoothly. Highly recommend Gages Lake Automotive, Lake Villa, or Gages Lake. Both locations always treat you well, are fair, and timely.Service: Air conditioning

I took my f250 here after another auto repair business did sub standard work. Repairs were greater than estimated but held to original quote. Truck drives better than ever now. I won't go anywhere else in the future!!

I have been going to Gages Lake Auto - Lake Villa location, for several years now. They are the most straight forward, customer-focused, honest shop I've ever been to. Ken makes sure to explain issues and will let you know if it's something that can wait, or if you need to do it right away. They are the best, and I'll continue going there for years to come!

In the mad rush of the day I forgot all of my ID and Credit Cards at home, and was so embarrassed. Gages Lake Auto let me take my care anyway, and yes, I did return later and pay for the service.Unexpected Kindness is the Best, and these guys really did make me feel like I was part of their family. It is really wonderful to feel accepted. So if you want great service and kindness too, sign up for their Oil Change Package, because then you will save money as well.Keep up the Great Experience Gages Lake Auto!Services: Electrical
