These wonderful folks are simply the very best. They've done excellent work on both of my problem-ridden BMWs; full suspension refresh on a 2004 e46 M3, and extraction of broken power steering pump bolts on a 2013 e82 135i. Although they were swamped with work on this last visit (glad to see business isn't slowing down), Ruth was able to fit me in regardless when a spot opened up and got me taken care of. I was able to speak with the technician performing the repairs, and had excellent communication. Honest work, great flexibility, and very reasonable pricing. I originally came to Merrill Axle and Wheel because of their renowned reputation; being family-owned, I'll always support their business and hope they stay around for many more years to come. Thanks so much for everything, David and Ruth! Your crew are simply the very best!

The staff here are exceptionally knowledgeable, nice and helpful. They worked us in during their busy schedule and did an amazing job working on our RV axle! On a scale of 1-10, we give them a 15! We would definitely bring our camper back here for work even living 1,500 miles away! Thank you so much Charlie and Ruth!

These people are awesome. They got my f350 in, fixed, and back on the road, in a flash! I even had a 40 gooseneck trailer hooked up to the truck, they helped me contend with, so they could work on it. Its a local, family business so you feel good supporting hard working people like yourself. They have been in business since the 50's so you know you get the benefit of experience that generations have passed down. These aren't just any young, newly minted, wrench turners, these guys are generation deep fixers!

I've been doing business with this company for 40 years. It's a family own business that treats you like family. From my classic muscle car to my new 4 wheel drive pick up. And many different vehicles in the past.All the workers are very professional and I would recommend them for ANY automotive repair. So if you want it done right and professional, bring it right downtown. THANKS Bill.

It took the pros at Merrill about 10 minutes to figure out what had stumped others and half a day to fix it. I highly, highly recommend them.

I showed up on RAGBRAI day with a flat bike tire. After trying to inflate a tire that wasn't holding air, a very helpful person, whose name I didn't get offered to take me in his truck to a bike shop. I gratefully accepted. Obviously, the people at Merrill are helpful even when they won't make a dime!

I can't say enough good about this shop. I was traveling across the country and needed a new axle on my flatbed while hauling a a F150. They were able to get my in and keep me moving with the correct axle and zero issues. THANK YOU!! I drove over 4,000 miles that trip and because of them it was a good trip.

Wonderful receptionist on the phone. Very friendly, very helpful. I had a customer in the area in a bind and they dropped everything, sent a tech to her to help with her lug nut concern. Thanks again!!!

Taking your vehicle into an auto repair shop can make a person anxious and uncomfortable. Especially if you never did business with them before. From the time I walked into Merrill Axel and visited with Ruth, Nick, and Steve, I felt at ease. Everyone was welcoming and professional. After they diagnosed my vehicle's issue, they suggested I could actually wait to repair a few things in the future. They said the vehicle was safe and reliable. That's unusual for most repair shops. I walked out feeling good about my vehicle and their century old business. I am impressed with their honesty. If you want an honest estimate for repairs, Merrill Axle is the place to go. THANK YOU Merrill Axel !
