This place is top notch!Great communication, service, solid repair!Very professional, kind, and excellent waiting room.José was so willing to answer all my questions about everything, honestly.My car needed a lot more work than I expected, and they walked me through each itemized issue and the price. Going as far as to help me prioritize work needed, and explain why.After my initial repairs, I noticed a strange sound from the fan they replaced, and they reexamined it free of charge.These guys totally went above and beyond!I was so nervous about being duped because I know nothing about cars, but they were so patient and clear about everything.I will definitely be going back!Ask questions if you visit! They appreciate their customers understanding of prices and work.Highly recommend!

I needed shocks and wheels replaced which I provided and they were more than happy to install and help me. After finding out the wheels that I bought would not fit properly they were more than happy to move forward doing modifications to make it work correctly. In the process they found out I had two bad tires which way they were able to provide.. after getting the car it seemed like there was another problem with the balancing of the wheels I took it back they happily rebalanced it and now its working properly. I have to say for a shop to continue to work with me after numerous obstacles because they agreed to install the parts that I provided I really appreciate that Id have to say thats good business and they care about their customers thank you. Good job thank you

Had a great experience. They looked at my car at 6 PM and had it ready for me by noon the following day. Brake prices beat competitors prices by A LOT. They also threw in an oil change which was greatly appreciated. Will definitely be back!

I work in close proximity to this shop and have taken my car in a couple of times. They do excellent work and are very thorough. Neither time did I feel that they were trying to take advantage of me as a woman. I appreciate that. Highly recommend 💜

Husband and I have been going here for at least a year now and they still seem too good to be true. Theyre consistently fast, friendly, 100% competent and capable, and transparent about what you need, at prices lower than what any other shop would quote us. Weve had little things like oil or a headlight, and big things like $2000 of work on the frame and engine. Every time, theyre faster than we expect and do a perfect job for a price that seems too fair for anywhere in downtown Chicago to be charging. I dont know how they do it, but I know you should skip the hassle of other places and bring your car here.

Great service, fair pricing and good people. I have been trusting them with my car for couple years now and i recommend them to all my friends and family.

Review №21

As someone who knows nothing about cars at all- I was skeptical going to a new mechanic. A personal friend recommended me this location, and they quickly became my go- to shop. Amazing service that focuses on quality coupled with good prices. Once, my car had issues after driving it off the lot- and I brought the car back and they fixed it for free on their dime. An incredible service that I cannot recommend enough!

My daughter needed new brakes installed on her car, and were greeted promptly at the time we arrived. Very honest work from them, most shops Ive been to have always found something else or the parts price changed before theyd be done changing the price, but not here. We were allowed to wait in the waiting area while they were working on the car, All the staff was very personable and had some great conversation.Thanks.

Chicago Auto Repair has become my go-to service provider. I recently dumped Marino Jeep after years of progressively deteriorating service and have had great experiences with Chicago Auto over the past year. Always completed in a timely manner, and at fair pricing. Ive found a trusted shop.

I was very satisfied with the service that I received at Chicago Auto Repair. They were friendly, efficient, communicated well, and their pricing seemed fair and reasonable. They provided a written report, and send me pictures of the repairs needed now and those that could wait, but will be coming up in future. I will definitely use them again, and I would recommend them to others.Been there 4 times so far they always go above and beyond.

Last weekend my wife ended up with a flat tire and other issues and first thing Monday morning we called this place and they got us in right away. Not only that, they were able to fix our issue the same day in less than a couple hours. The service and communication was fantastic. We have lived in this area for 7 years now and been searching for a shop like this forever. Their pricing was absolutely the best there is in the neighborhood. Highest recommendation!

Took my car in to have a side view mirror replaced. After they replaced the mirror, I noticed the electronic adjustment wasnt working. When I asked about it, the guy told me the tech had noticed that and that it was probably defective. They were going to just let me drive away like that? Im waiting for a new mirror to come in and its been weeks. Terrible communication.

I recommend this place. The owner and employees are really nice and professional. It cost nothing to get you car looked at, and as someone who knows nothing about cars and always feels like I’m getting cheated out of my money when I go to other car repair places, I never feel this way when I bring them an issue. They’re trustworthy.

This shop does good work, and usually will complete it within the time frame they give you for the repair. There us no reason to take your foreign car back to any dealer for mechanical repairs once your warranty is up; Chicago Auto Repair seems to be able to repair all makes of cars, and their prices are reasonable.

Excellent service and a fair price. They don’t try to sell you something you don’t need. If they find something that you didn’t ask to be fixed, they explain the issue clearly, but only do what you authorize.I recommend Chicago Auto Repair to any one needing any type of service, routine or major repairs on their vehicles. Been taking both vehicles there for going on three years. 😊😊😊

This place was recommended to me by a neighbor and I can genuinely say that this is the best place I’ve ever gone to for car repairs/maintenance! Along with the affordable prices and quality of service, another plus about this place is the environment that the employees create. The waiting room doesn’t feel stressful or stuffy. Instead, the staff is genuine and creates a relaxed atmosphere that puts the customers at ease. You know you’re in good hands and are not going to get scammed into paying more than what you need to in order to get the job done! I’ve already recommended this place to my friends and am glad to know that they’ll receive good prices, quality service, and friendly staff! Thank you for being the best in the biz, I’ll see you guys in 5,000 miles for my next oil change!!

Review №41

This is the best car repair experience Ive ever had! I was visiting Chicago from out of state when two of my break lines rusted through (old car). They stayed an hour past closing to fix it the same day I brought it in AND the total was $200 under what they originally quoted me. 1 million stars, highly recommend!!

Review №42

I woke up early and dropped off my car at 9am when they opened because my breaks we’re acting funny. I waited 3 hours before they called me back to even let me know what the problem was. They tried to charge me $600 to do my break pads and rip me off! They made up several other “problems” with my car to fix just so they could get more money out of me. It’s probably because I’m female :( They charged me an inspection fee (which no one told me about when I dropped it off) and tried to charge me $100 for just staring at my car and diagnosing the issue! I took my car to another shop in the city and they only charged me $100 to fix my breaks which included parts! DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR HERE!!!!

I brought my car in for a shattered window and Chicago Auto took my car in and repaired it to perfection at a great price within a few hours. Everyone at the business is incredibly professional and welcoming and they have a great front lobby with a big TV and coffee/drinks to hang out while they work on your car. Very affordable prices and high quality service that will have your car running perfectly in a short period of time.

Review №59

This could not have been a better experience. No one enjoys the hassles of auto repair and there is nothing worse than having your car break down- which mine did. But these guys made the pain as painless as possible. I had my car towed into the shop minutes before closing. I didnt expect to hear back from them until the next morning to tell me what the problem was, but I got a call 15 minutes after dropping it off with the diagnosis (dead battery and dead alternator), a reasonable quote for repair and letting me know that it would be done by late afternoon the following day (which it was). I will be a loyal customer from here on out, absolutely GREAT experience!

Been coming here for a couple years now. They are locally/family-owned and always offer quality service at an affordable price. I’ve had everything from oil changes to minor body work done and have had no complaints. No upselling, no hidden fees, just a reputable/ethically run business all around. I’ve since moved out of the neighborhood, but will still go out of my way to come here for all of my auto repair needs.

I was looking for a new home to my car repair and everyone one is truly nice, I had to bring my car back and the mechanic took me to back and showed me that theres no leak. I really appreciate the professional atmosphere and yes I would recommend this place, thank you. Now, Its been two weeks since Ive had to take my car back for leaking, now 1/13/21 its leaking again, a mirror was left sitting in my engine and I really dont want to go back. I paid $360.00 to get the coolant replaced and its half way empty. I thought I found a new mechanic home but now I have to move on, I am very disappointed now and No I would not recommend this place.

Review №78

This is the best auto mechanic I’ve ever been to. I drove 35 min away to go to this place based on stellar reviews already here and they surpassed my expectations. The person I communicated with was beyond understanding of my position. They quickly figured out that my blown out headlight was actually a blown out headlight module and unrelated to the bulb itself. While they initially quoted me $600 for the repair, they were incredibly transparent and broke down how the pricing worked and what their part was that cost $300. Because I wanted to get the price down, they even let me keep my car there for 5 days (the snowstorms made ubering 35 min to otherwise pick it up very difficult) while I shipped to them a similar part I found on Amazon for cheaper. All the while, they communicated with me over text and by phone and it was a great experience. Working with them made the whole process a lot less anxiety inducing for me than usual.In short, I could not recommend this place enough 10/10.

Woke up with almost a completely flat tire. So I brought my car over this afternoon. I left it with them. It took a little longer than I was told. But no big deal. They found a nail in the tire.

Trustworthy mechanic(s). I have brought my car here for a variety of issues, and have been treated fair (in terms of pricing and service received).
