In my experience John has always gone above and beyond. He also won't try to upsell you on anything.

Highly recommend. The tire I wanted wasn’t in stock, so they gave me a more expensive one for the price of the ones I originally asked for. Took time to explain the differences between tires, and work quick. Support local!

I've been going there for a long time and he's treated me really nice that whole time he would let you know how much it cost and if he couldn't fix it he would find somebody that would fix it that for reasonable price so he is a good place to go

Russ' is the best auto service business I've used. Their mechanics are knowledgeable and efficient, the prices are fair and they always do their best to accommodate my schedule. I've been using them for years and will continue to do so.Services: Oil change

They charged me $110 for an oil change in 2020, well before the oil prices went up. I had asked the front desk guy why it was so much, as no oil change should be more than 70-80 dollars pre rise in oil prices. He claimed it was normal, which I disagree with because even after oil prices have risen today, it’s still not $110 at any other shop. He did the same to my roommate. Can’t trust a shop like that!Service: Oil change

Super fast service. They were able to get me in and out of the shop on the same day. Pretty affordable and great customer service.

Russ's is a neighborhood garage in the old and best sense. It's not associated with any dealership or big usiness. They service a variety of makes and models for many problems. They've always been fair to me. If you have an urgent problem, they will work with your schedule. And since they are right in downtown Iowa City, if you work there, you can drop your car off in the am and easily pick it up at the end of the day.

Absolutely THE BEST! I wouldn't trust anyone else with my car, or my money. I don't know jack about cars- John had to show me how to open the hood on my '97 Nissan Sentra- but since I know how to drive my car to Russ' Northside, I don't need to know anything else. They know it all, & they are more honest than a summer day is long, so they will give you a fair, equitable, honest answer as to what is wrong with your car, & also tell you if it's worth fixing, because they just know everything. That's their business- they know everything. If you have a car problem, go to them- they will give the straight facts & the honest truth with no malarkey, & then they'll give you a very fair price. Honest mechanics are worth their weight in gold, & Russ' is invaluable, which is why I've been a loyal customer for over 10 years.

Russ's has been our Go To our neighborhood shop for 20 years. They are always efficient, honest, and thorough in their work. They have uncovered bad work or work that should not have been missed by other shops, but they do NOT bad talk others. They focus on doing what needs doing, being observant, and getting things done right the first time. We trust them.Services: Tire rotations
