About Meineke Car Care Center
Kevin runs this Chicago Meineke the way dealerships' own techs apparently recommend - a dealership technician pointed a customer here, which is the review that tells you everything. Illinois emissions tests, radiator work that the dealer had mispriced, and fair, fast service with coffee in the waiting area. Multi-car families have trusted him for years.
The grumbles are about prices creeping toward dealership levels lately and one disputed tune-up recommendation. Illinois emissions testing on the menu. Rated 4.4 across 660+ reviews.
Customer Reviews
Great service! My visit was quick. Thanks to, Kevin my vehicle passed the emissions test. Professional service without ripping you off or overcharging you. I highly recommend!
I’ve taken almost every car I’ve owned to this location. Kevin and his team has never let me down. Reasonable pricing (even with the economic price hikes), superior results, and friendly service. Over the course of almost 20 years I’ve owned 3 Hyundai’s, an Infiniti, Mitsubishi, and a BMW and they serviced them all without fail or regret. I’ve recommend all my friends and family to them for the auto repair needs.
I usually do not have the time to give out reviews, but I made the time to give out a review to this place for their outstanding work I call one day I spoke with kevin he told me to come in. He took nothing but care of me. I really appreciate him for everything and making sure my car was in good hands. My car took no time to get fixed They are the real deal truth
Kevin was fair and fast. No frills and less expensive than others in the area.
There's a lot to be said when a technician at a dealership highly recommends your shop to a paying customer. I am grateful for the tech by the way. Kevin is one of few mechanics I have met with integrity. His team will work tirelessly to troubleshoot and repair any issue you may have with your vehicle. He's fair with his costs and the technicians do great work. Kevin genuinely cares about his customers and this sets the time for the technicians to give 110%. I recommend them to anyone I know looking for a good auto mechanic.. I am a forever customer and you should be too.
As always; I’m given great advice, attention to detail and great coffee. I went to the dealership to get my 2015 gmc Acadia checkout my radiator and they told me that I needed a new radiator. Kevin showed me that I didn’t need to replace my radiator. He was able to explain to me in detail what I needed.
The prices here at one point in time were lower than those charged by the dealership. As of late they have begun to creep closer to the price of the dealership. The problem that is the lack of expertise. If you want simple things done to your car you can come here. The problem lies in the lack of expertise. They do not have mechanics who are experts on the most modern of cars. They have made mistakes that they will not refund you for. I was charged $1,800 for an unnecessary repair. They were unable to professionally diagnose what was wrong with the car. In addition they are unnecessarily charged me. I spent a total of $2,400. And they would not refund me for the mistake they made. I drove my car home with the problem still in my car. Once again for a simple things you may get a decent price. But their shop needs updating to the latest technical standards. They need an updated staff trained on the latest modern vehicles. Their diagnosis of problems is terrible. You will pay your money and go back home with the same problem.
This is not a Meineke location. The website listed for this location links to a completely different shop in Rogers Park.
Called in and expressed what my problem was .. Kevin at front desk and mechanic showed me some part and expressed a tune up and replacing it would fix my problems. I was charged $400 and days later I am still having same slow start issues. Came back and he stated it is a battery issue. I feel as their intent was to make money instead of resolve my issue.
