I have utilized Modern Auto's services for several years now on multiple vehicles and am very happy with their performance. As you have probably noticed, vehicles have changed substantially in the last two decades. The average new vehicle has more than 30 onboard computers that are communicating with each other.

These features have made driving much more safe, convenient, and enjoyable. They have also made servicing your vehicle more complicated and precise. Are you confident in the abilities and facility of your current service provider? We started our business because we want to offer a new approach to vehicle maintenance.

As we leave the cool, wet spring behind, and embrace the summer-time, air conditioning becomes a hot-topic. You may have noticed that your air conditioner is not as cold as it once was. Maybe it's cold while you are driving but gets warm when you are sitting at the stop light or in a parking lot. What makes the situation worse.

I can’t rave enough about everybody here at Modern Auto! We have taken all of our vehicles from Gasers to Diesels, from small fixes to large fixes and we have never been disappointed. Travis is such amazing help and always helps us with our millions of questions we may have! Modern has our business for life!

Been here twice, both times they left me feeling like the job was done professionally, I like the text follow-up with other issues that need addressing, need to schedule these soon.
Appreciated the Veteran's Day Special for the local Vets, much appreciated.

Giant thank you to Ryan for helping me this morning after my car decided to die and not start back up... in the school drop of line!! He knew a common problem with my car and jumped into action to help! Was able to get it started and moved. Thank you Ryan!

Modern Auto is a class act! They gave me a free oil change on Veterans Day, along with a T-shirt and some gift cards! I didn’t even ask for it. Ryan saw a FB post that I was a vet and called me up. Picked up my car while I was at work and did it. It’s great how he brings in automotive students to help with this service. Thanks Ryan, and the crew for caring about our community!

This garage is in Fruitland, we live in Boise.My Son, was out taking a drive, had a front tire blow out. He was towed to this garage. The garage was already closed when he got there. So he couldn't leave them the keys. So, the next day he ordered my front tires. He told me that he couldn't put them on until I paid for them. Also he had to have the keys. So, I left to to go get my car. Drove all the way there!! I forgot to take the keys 🔑 to my car!! But, when I got there, they had put the tires on already!! I was so excited 😁!! It was so nice for them to go out and Jack up the car, in the

Never going to this place again. I got my oil changed and tires rotated less than a month ago. When they had my tires off I had diagnostics done because there was vibration while I was on the highway. They said I just needed new tires and gave me a quote. Fast forward to this morning... I'm sitting on the side of the highway waiting for a tow truck because my front tire literally fell off while going 65 mph. I don't know if they failed to tighten the lugs properly, missed something during diagnostics, or what. But needing new tires doesn't cause your rim to fall off on the highway. They were the

They always take great care of me. I know to call my appointments in ahead of time cause they always seem busy, but they’re well worth the wait. I’ve gotten multiple things done on my truck here and I always feel secure every time I get it back from them. This is a great team that knows what they’re doing.
