The KAR Shop

Chris was very nice & helpful. I was a thousand miles away on work when my son's car broke down. I called The Kar Shop (which is also a AAA approved shop) and he was extremely helpful in helping me locate a towing service (locally) and than got my son's car in & fixed even sooner than he had told me it would be. Seems like a nice family ran business with good work ethics and fair prices. I WILL definitely be using The Kar Shop again. Thank you guys

I called yesterday with a concern that I had started hearing a noise (quite grinding) from my rear brakes that morning. We made an appointment me for next week as it didn’t seem like the issue was that bad. I then went to pick up my sons from school and I noticed the grinding sound was much louder than earlier. I call the shop back and they told me if I could drop it off last night that they could fit me in today.
I did that and this morning by 8:00 and they knew what the problem was with the ability to fix it today. I then picked up my van and it now drives and stops like a brand new vehicle

Nice experience overall. Polite personnel, clean waiting room and service was done in a timely manner. I called a couple other places when looking for a new mechanic, and I was impressed with what I felt was an honest and professional manner, which I was treated.

We called the KAR Shop on Monday morning exactly when they opened, at 7:00 AM, for an urgent repair that required a tow of our truck (2016 Ram 1500 Truck) from our home. They were friendly, responsive, and offered to work on the truck, same day, if they could fit it in. They used the most efficient means possible to correct a fuel system issue and saved us money in the process. We receive clear communication about the repairs and cost throughout the day. Upon picking up the truck (same day)- they were professional and gave us thorough detail about repair and recommended maintenance going forward

These guys were great. Even though they were very busy, they worked me in to do a quick fix on my transmission linkage and get me going again. Very professional and accommodating to a customer in a tight fix! Would highly recommend!

I won't ever go any where else for my car needs. They replaced the low beam headlight. Professional, started service 10 minutes after I arrived. Explained what needed to be done and an estimate of work. I was there less than an hour then was on my way. If you need any work on your vehicles, don't hesitate to use The Kar Shop. You won't regret it. LB

They get the job done and quick, but far too expensive for me. I needed my alternator replaced and an oil change. Came up to nearly $800! They cited the alternator as being a $400 part (it is a $200 part) and when I asked how they said they charge more cause they need to make a profit. I guess they don't make a enough profit from charging another $300 for the 2 hours of work it took for them to replace it.
I've always felt like they charged way too much, but knowing how much the part cost and how easy it is to replace this time, really shed light on how much money I was losing here. I could have

Honest folks that seem to genuinely care about you and the vehicles they work on. And most importantly, they do great work!

Awesome service! Took our Escalade in because it was riding like an old tank. They checked the suspension and discovered that the front shocks were locked up but the rear shocks were good. Replaced the front only and now it rides like a dream!

Great shop with nice knowledgeable crew.
This shop doesn't try and 'up sell' constantly like some of the chains do.

Just had a sensor light reset on my truck- no idea what it could be. Kar shop fixed it and didn't try and sell me unneeded items

Time for oil change and Kar Shop got me in, did what they said they'd do, and at a fair price. And I can trust it was done correct. Everyone wants to find that place where they can trust the knowledge and the workmanship. Look no further than The Kar Shop.

Took a vehicle in for a pre-purchase inspection. They did a good job found issues that helped with decision to purchase or not. Completed inspection in time they said , and reasonable price.
Thanks guys !

We have taken our cars to The Kar Shop for innumerable repairs since moving here almost 3 years ago. For reference, they are both15 year-old Subarus with over 120,000 miles each. They have always repaired everything to the best of their ability and at a fair price. After so many repairs, our cars are in excellent condition thanks to their experienced and expert mechanics. We're so glad to have found this shop and it makes our life infinitely easier to have Kevin as our advocate there. He excels in customer service!

Don't trust this business!
When I picked up my car after they did a brake pad job font and rear. The brakes started locking up in about 5 miles. They said the rear calibers would need to be replaced. They charged me for the 2 rear calibers PLUS disassembly of the rear brakes again.
The owner said that he did the test drive and all was OK. NOT. At this point the car was not drivable and the rear brakes were stinking and smoking. I was getting ready for a long vacation drive to Florida, that is why I had them check my brakes in the first place.
After much heated discussion with the owner, Kevin

We were on our way from Michigan to our honeymoon to Florida our cars A/C stopped working came by and Don was very helpful, professional and affordable. Highly recommend coming here for any car problems I wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank you Don.

Very professional and courteous. Vehicle done quick at fair price and excellent communication. Didn't try to up sell anything other than what I had it in for. Highly recommended.

We took our SRX for a second opinion/diagnostic to The KAR Shop after the dealership recommended several services. What we learned was there are honest, forthright business people at the KAR Shop. Prior to the comprehensive inspection, they explained what items typically show up on a 6 year old vehicle with 80+k miles. The inspection was completed in timely manner and they discussed every detail that was addressed. The difference between the KAR Shop and the dealership?? The KAR Shop suggested an alignment service ( that is not pressing) and the dealership suggested over $1400 of services

Reasonable, honest, friendly.
AAA approved.
More than willing to help.
It's my go to place for auto repairs.

I love this place. I know when I bring my car here I'm going to get the best service and fair prices available. Keith, Kyle and Jack are great to work with. Extremely knowledgeable and honest. I highly recommend the Kar Shop!

Took my daughter's car here for a repair. Not only were they honest, the bill was less than the quote. Nice to go to a shop and not feel like I was getting the run around or getting ripped off. My car will be next ! Clean shop, friendly people. Happy to have found them!
