About The Garage
The Garage (Des Moines area) quotes less than half what competitors charge for the same quality, does 30-minute oil changes without the Jiffy Lube theater, and inspects out-of-state airport-run wheel noises on the spot. Honest and knowledgeable, per a customer base that includes dealership referrals.
The bill extras bite: $50+ debit card surcharge and $100 shop-supply fee on a $1,900 invoice with brakes still squeaking. Ask for the out-the-door number. Iowa requires no emissions testing. Rated 4.5 across 84 reviews.
Customer Reviews
Friendly, honest, knowledgeable, and fast. Those are the qualities I look for in a repair shop, and they have them all! They fixed my car quickly, and I had a great experience. I highly recommend them!
I very highly recommend this place for your automotive needs. They have the type of knowledge that is needed, yet not found at most places. These guys are truly experts and most importantly they're HONEST. They also do a really good job with timeliness. It sometimes takes a few days to get an appointment, but once you get one you're basically in and out. I've never had to leave my vehicle overnight, they get you back on the road ASAP. I can't say enough good things about this shop! This review is good enough that it almost sounds fake, but I assure you it's real.
Super helpful and quick to get me in. Quoted me less than half what CB Automotive quoted me for the same quality. Will continue to take my vehicles here.
These guys always have my oil change done in around 30m with fair prices, way better than Jiffy Lube bs. They've always been honest with me & don't try to upsell. I've even fact checked just to be sure (because I've had issues with mechanics in the past) & everything they say checks out.
Never had an issue with the mechanics Very knowledgeable, friendly, and support worthy. I highly recommend this company.
I'm from out of state. While taking my granddaughter to the airport, we noticed an odd sound coming from the rear. When we inspected the wheel, we found that all the lugs were loose and 1 was gone. When we tried to tighten them, another stud stripped off. We found the garage online and I limped to it. Upon examining the problem, they immediately looked for parts and got me in. They told me it would take about an hour and apologized profusely. If I lived in this area, this would be my go to for automotive repair. They're very conscientious, courteous and affordable. Thank you so much guys!
These guys are good people. And they have a good sense of humor and at the same time they try to save me money when they work on my vehicles.
They charged me over $50 to use my debit card. Over $100 for "shop supplies" On a $1900 bill. I feel taken advantage of And the brakes still shake
Took my car here twice since my dealership wanted me too since they installed the power steering pump. They kept telling me there was no leak even though i was putting fluid in when i drove and had puddles under my car, I had to tell them where one leak was so it could be fixed, for the second leak they couldn't figure it out saying it wasn't leaking so I took it somewhere else to be determined a wrong line was installed. This garage doesn't listen to its customers or care too.
