Ron has always had a passion for repairing cars and helping his neighbors. He opened Ron's Garage in 1982 here in Ann Arbor, and has been proudly serving our customers ever since. Although she mostly works behind the scenes, his wife, Cindy, has become an integral part of the business. Ron and Cindy live together in Chelsea with their dogs, Lucy and Lily, who have since become familiar faces around the shop.

Always a great experience at Ron’s! I work long hours and was able to drop off/pick up after hours and do all business via phone call. This is so convenient for me, not having to take time off of work for vehicle maintenance. I even got an electronic detailed service report! I have been a patron of Ron’s Garage since I got my drivers license over 20 years ago. Thank you so much Ron and team!

I had a very good experience with Ron’s garage. I dropped my car off and was able to get it back fixed the same day. The people I came in contact with were extremely nice. I will definitely be back if I need repairs on my car.

Have heard really good things about Ron's Garage for years and finally took my car there after several years of bouncing around between garages. I was impressed with their friendly, laid back yet professional staff and the fact that there was zero up-selling going on. They easily took care of a variety of small but important fixes I needed. They also did an overall inspection and gave me a report of all systems, fluids, mechanicals and the info I needed to decide when/if things needed attention along with the estimated cost of each. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this longtime,

My friend had referred me to Ron’s Garage and I would highly recommend too! They were diligent in updating me on my needed repairs and took care of my car swiftly. Each person I spoke with was equally friendly and professional. Thank you all so much!

I took my car to Ron’s Garage after getting a diagnosis from a different shop.( I did not tell Todd about the previous diagnosis).
I just told them to “check the front end” I got some noise.
They gave it the once over. They took pictures of what they found and suggested some other Preventive maintenance items.
All and all I got the suggested work done. I am COMPLETELY satisfied with Ron’s and will be recommending them to anyone that will listen.
Great shuttle service too👍🏾

The crew at Ron's Garage always do a great job with my car. I trust them to take care of what is needed to keep my car safe so that I can get back on the road. Their prices are reasonable for the area, similar to other places around. The employees are professional and they really care about customer service. If you want to go to a shop where the employees treat you right go to Ron's Garage. Bonus points that they shuttle you home and back to the shop if you live within a certain distance.

I've been taking my cars to Ron's Garage for almost 20 years, ever since I moved to the area. Ron's is a great family run business with professional staff that's always treated us right. This past week I brought my daughter's car in for some break work. The breaks had rusted a bit due to lack of use over the pandemic. Ron's team got the work done fast, for a reasonable price, and now the car drives like new.

Ron's Garage was referred to me by a friend who has used their services for many years with great satisfaction. I am happy with their service as well. I have confidence in their ability to diagnose and repair car malfunction. I appreciate their willingness to provide transportation back and forth to the garage. They are a please to deal with

I found out about Ron’s from friends that have gone to him for over 18 years. They could not say enough good things about Ron and his friendly, professional staff. I gave Ron’s a try and will stay here moving forward. I feel confident that they will take excellent care of my car. I am sold on the comprehensive analysis I get after each oil change now. This gives me an overall picture of the “health” of my vehicle but also helps me budget for expenses that will be coming up in the future. Thank you to everyone at Ron’s for giving me the confidence to know that I will be treated professionally

Ron’s Garage in Ann Arbor is by far the best overall auto service I have had in my 62 yrs of working with auto repair shops. Our dad wanted us to get the experience of doing this. Over those 62 years I have had auto repair/maintenance done at every kind of shop in the Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti area: many different dealerships, private gas stations, Tire and muffler shops that do repairs, private mechanics with their own shop in their garage, and others. Every aspect of my entire experience with Ron’s Garage was the best I have ever had.

Not only do they OVERCHARGE at this place, they are potentially FRAUDS looking to take advantage of people who don't know any better.
I got my first oil change here after moving to Ann Arbor. The car is old, so when they told me that my transmission fluids needed to be changed, I believed them. But there was also a "bolt mysteriously missing" so they charged me for replacing that, too. The cost was over $400, and I told myself, "fine, I'll pay it. But I have my eye on them."
Upon my second oil change 3-4 months later, they told me I needed a new spark plug and that

I'm not a typical review writer, but I had such a great experience that I felt it necessary. I dropped my car off last evening for a rubbing/grinding noise when I was turning. They diagnosed the problem, fixed my car, and I had my car back by the end of the next business day. Also, the guy at the desk even stayed a few minutes late so I could pick it up before closing! MUCH appreciated. I can not say enough good things about this place. I will definitely be returning for any car needs.

I took my vehicle in due to a strange sound which turned out to be quite minor and easily repaired. I was charged 1/2 hour labor for diagnosing issue, repairing it, and providing me a overall diagnostic of the vehicle. I was informed about pricing upon booking appt which is fine. They were very nice and friendly and professional which was great. The not so great part was the pricing -- comparable service of differential fluid change with synthetic oil was less expensive at dealership.

Ron's Garage is great! I brought my car in for a second opinion on my brakes. I had brought it to another auto repair shop in the area that told me I needed new front brakes. I made an appointment with Ron's Garage and they got my car in right away. They checked the brakes and did their complimentary 30 (or so) point inspection. 30 minutes later they brought me back to the garage to show me what they found. Turns out I wasn't even close to needing new brakes on my car. They could've easily lied and agreed with the other shop...and I would've bought some new brakes from

Confused and not happy with the owner's attitude. (from google review)
The transmission of the car started to give a terrible clicking noise after I dropped the car for brake check. I agreed with the owner that there must have been sth not right with transmission before since the hand brake has to be pulled to fully stop the car when in parking (Other than that, the shift is fine). But there has never been a problem or such noise with transmission for one year until I brought it to the garage, so I think there must be sth they did on the car causing the noise and the garage should be partly

I had a bad experience at Ron's. I won't rehash all the details, because I don't want to grind the axe. Granted, there was a series of unfortunate problems that were not entirely Ron's fault that made the experience so bad. He told me to park the car across the street, and the car got towed because, as he later told me the businesses across the street are feuding over the parking spaces and one of them must have figured that my car belonged to the other one and had it towed. Okay, so that was Ron's fault. I'm like "he told me to park my car there!" So, I
