Itasca Automotive Repair - Mechanical Repair - new ownership in
Itasca (IL)

Zayed has always been available at any time to service any of our cars. Very honest. Such a pleasure to work with them. Highly recommend.

Zayed is awesome. He has helped me out of a pinch many times! It has been so helpful to have his shop close by during our time living in Itasca.

Warning: The mechanics at Itasca Automotive are not very knowledgeable. I wasted $300 on an unnecessary repair. I was hearing a loud creaking sound every time I turned right. The mechanic told me the axle shaft was the source of the noise and replaced it. This did not fix the problem. My car was still making the same creaking sound every time I turned right. He looked at my car again and said that my car was making a different sound than before and now the steering gear needed to be replaced. What . . . ? I took my car to Performance Auto Center in Elk Grove Village and they immediately fixed it. The strut needed to be replaced.

Zayed was the nicest most confident mechanic I have ever worked with! He saved me $1,500+ for a repair on my Audi! He prbably has more repair than most dealer techs nowadays. No need to go to the dealer for repairs!

I loved the result and he's very kind explaning how he will do. Thank you~ :)

He is the most professional, patient, honest and affordable mechanic I've experienced. Amazing! 5 🌟!!!

Very friendly staff! They have all automotive repair and maintenance services available at a great price!

I recently had Itasca Automotive Repair change my oil and rotate/align my tires. They did same day service at a very fair rate. I'll be using them again in the future.

I wholeheartedly recommend Itasca Automotive Repair for their exceptional service at a very good and decent price. They not only do a clean job but also have a team of honest and hardworking people. You can trust them for all your car repair needs!

I went here because I was having serious issues with my car. The mechanic assured me all my car needed was an oil change and that he checked everything else. I drove my car later and it broke down in downtown Chicago. Turns out I needed a new transmission. When I called the shop multiple times to speak to an owner I was told they weren't there and they didn't know when they would be back. This is simply inexcusable

NOTE: new owner- no clue how service is now, could not get past confusion of trying to figure out who I was talking to to even make an appointment. Didn’t seem to have any information about past work on vehicles, no clue who I was as a past customer, didn’t want name for an appointment. So I did not make one and will be looking for service now in my area. VERY SAD that ownership change over created such a dramatic change in basic customer service. I have been taking my vehicles here for many years. They do great work, that is reasonably priced, and they are very nice and friendly to work with. I drive a ton for work, and I can always rest assured that when I drop my car off for an oil change and a “once over”, that they have checked EVERYTHING! They always call with updates before doing any work and the estimates are always accurate. I used to live a short walk away, so they were very convenient. I recently moved to Minooka, soooo not convenient anymore! But I’m calling in the morning to make an appointment because the peace of mind knowing my vehicle has been well and competently managed is totally worth the drive. I have never had a bad experience with Itasca Automotive and highly recommend this shop!

IAR repaired my vehicle after accident . Great communication, did excellent work in timely manner. I highly recommend!

Great service and great value! They were able to fit me in for an oil change last minute and were super quick! Given the current economy they were also extremely affordable! They did a great thorough check of my car. I will definitely be returning and recommending!

Great reliable honest service. If you want peace of mind with your car repairs go see Doug. He will treat you right.

Owner and mechanics are really nice and easy to talk to. He was very honest with his recommendations, I didn't feel like the other was trying to upsell. I found that their pricing is one of the best I've seen in the west suburbs.

Always a good price when I've shopped around for service. Work is reliable. And best, are honest about if work needs to be done (when jiffy lube always lists ten things).

I've had brake and muffler work done at this location in the past (prior to the new location) and had great service, prices and work. If you're a commuter on the Metra MD-West line, this should be a no-brainer for oil changes and car work. You can drop off your car early before they open and pick it up on your way home. I got timely calls with the price and status. I highly recommend them for any vehicle service.

TBH, I have used Rich and his shop prior for body work but not for repairs. Big mistake! They did a great job and went above and beyond. AND they came in under their initial quote! Can't beat that!

Rich’s Autobody was beyond wonderful! Very friendly staff, knowledgeable technicians and communicative on progress and completion. They came recommended to me and I will definitely be recommending them to others!!!

Dropped off my moms car for an oil change and some faulty warning lights. Same day service and helpful, friendly service. Great to have in the neighborhood.

This shop is the most honest around. Quality mechanics and grade A customer performance! Rich always goes the extra mile helping out my parents with advice on purchasing a new car and keeping them safe on the road in the most cost conscience manner. I'm lucky they are so close!

Amazing place, great service. We've always gone here for tough repairs and they've always pulled through. Great and fair prices. They know what they're doing and always help us out when we need.

Honest, fair and fast! These guys are great - they fix only what needs to be fixed rather than recommending unnecessary. Every time I have had to take my car to them I've been pleasantly surprised at the bill. They recognize that good business is treating people right. I won't go anywhere else ever again and highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services!

We have been taking our cars to Itasca Auto Body for over 20 years. They are honest, fair, friendly and do great work. From oil changes, breaks to body work, they do it all. Great communication and a locally owned family business. Highly recommend them!

I highly recommend Itasca Auto Body. My most recent dealing with them has reinforced the positive impressions I had previously had. They are helpful, friendly, and reasonable. I dropped off my car to replace what I thought were worn bearings. Rich troubleshooter and ruled things out, determining that the tires were near the end of their lives and at least one was out of alignment. He gave me options based on budget and degree of permanency. I opted for new tires through him, as the price was reasonable and he'd done all that troubleshooting.

I was having problems with my Acura TL. They got me in quickly and diagnosed my problem. They were unable to fix it because of the issue being intermittent, complex, and gave me some excellent advice. I spent an couple hours in the shop and I was pleased with the operation and procedures. Seems to run like a well oiled machine.

This is the best mechanic out there. I moved 1000 miles away, and I will still take my care here every time I am in town. I've been a customer for over 10 years.
