My 1st experience with Elmhurst Auto Care was back in 2018 when I lived in Northlake, it ended up being a simple issue, if I recall correctly my exhaust pipe was loose somewhere & they installed a clamp or two as was needed. Graciously they didn’t charge me. I moved back to the northwest suburbs so hadn’t been back. I moved to Wheaton a year ago, & today I noticed a piece of plastic near my driver’s front side near the tire area was hanging loose. I stopped by Elmhurst Auto Care, & they were able to check it out & secured it for me. Again, no charge. I will definitely go back to Elmhurst Auto Care in the future for my car issues. Thank you Ed & your team.

I find this place online and went there first time a year ago. I met Mr. Ed on the front desk and helped fixing my car. I felt quite impressed and go second time and repeated couple more times because I have 3 cars at home. I honestly recommend this is a very worthwhile place for car repair. They are very polite helpful honest and very reasonable including their staff.

I called because I'm not far away from this location and needed help to jump start my battery, but they said they do not provide this service. I saw someone else comment that Ed provided a free jump start, but this is false. They do not provide Jump Starts.

Brought a car in that I was thinking of purchasing for an inspection and was given a very detailed and honest report of what they found. Great customer service and an awesome experience. Would highly recommend them!

Visited Elmhurst Auto Care yesterday and was really happy with the service and customer service! I needed a 50,000 mile check up and Elmhurst Auto Care East reviewed the tasks and concluded that most everything was already in great working order, and not much was needed besides an oil change. The dealer's price for this same service was quoted for almost 10 times the price I paid here for the same service. This is definitely our family's new auto service. Highly recommend!

Well priced and transparent when it comes to informing you about your vehicle’s issue. They go the extra mile for the customer. This place does great work! Thanks.

I recently visited Elmhurst Auto Care and had an excellent experience. Ed was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the repairs my car needed. I really appreciated Ed's honesty—there was no pressure for unnecessary services, and the pricing was fair. I highly recommend Elmhurst Auto Care to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable auto repair shop in the area!

I'm a city girl, but this auto shop almost makes me wish I lived in Elmhurst! How often do you see a mechanic with lot of reviews, ALL of them 5-star? There's a good reason. The manager of this place, Ed, is as honest and competent as you could possibly hope for. (He's also friendly, pleasant and considerate.) I brought him two used cars I was thinking of buying, for pre-purchase inspection. The first one was a dog! The second one was almost too good to be true. (I bought it.) These are not judgments I could make as a layman. He accommodated the somewhat random timing of my visits. I didn't have to wait for him to get around to my case, even though the place is busy. He and his partner also own Elmhurst Auto Care West, which I would not hesitate to visit.

Updated review: I've been taking my vehicle to Elmhurst Auto Care for a couple of years now and I won't let anyone else touch my car. Thank you so much too Ed & his team for taking special care of my car! I found this establishment by searching on google for auto repair in my area. The reviews were fantastic! So, I decided to go there to get my brakes done. They went beyond my expectations and were so wonderful. Even tooked me back and forth to my house while it was being repaired. They even took my vehicle to have it's emission test completed and it passed. I would recommend everyone to go there for quality work and friendly service.

I am SO GLAD I found Ed and his team at Elmhurst Auto Care! My previous guy retired and it is so hard to find a shop that is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and fair (You usually only get to pick one or two of the three). The staff are friendly, professional, and genuinely care about their customers. When I arrived, I was greeted immediately, and Ed took the time to listen to my concerns and explain everything in detail. He was upfront about costs, and there were no hidden fees or surprises. I was in and out quickly and back on the road in no time!

Ed and his team are top notch. For starters, I simply wanted a price comparison on another mechanic's quote for a brake job and driver's seat issue. The other place seemed fair and reasonable, but I was doing my due diligence. When I took the car into Elmhurst Auto Care Ed explains to me that I do NOT need all 4 brakes replaced at this time (as the other mechanic had indicated), as we still had plenty of life left on our front brakes (he recommended that only the rear brakes need replacing at this time). Additionally, when Ed initially inspected the driver's seat issue we were having in our Mazda CX9 (prior to completing the necessary brake work), he explained that it was likely due to a faulty motor that powered the seat's movement, and unfortunately he wasn't able to service the seat at his shop. However, he did offer up a good recommendation for a salvage place to possibly locate a used, good condition motor instead of buying a brand new one (which would've cost north of $1000!). When I finally went to pick up my vehicle upon the work being completed, Ed mentioned to me how he was really curious to see if there were any other (more cost-friendly) options for fixing the noisy driver's seat, so he made some calls to his professional network for some input. Turns out one of his contacts mentioned how the issue MIGHT be able to get resolved by simply buying a ~$30 cable that's a component of the seat's motorized movement. He actually took the liberty of having already ordered said cable, and that he'd gladly try that option as a possible resolution once he receives the cable into his shop (which only took 2 days for it to get delivered). Furthermore, he explained how he would only charge me the cost of the cable IF it fixed the problem (and if it didn't, he would simply eat the ~$30 cost himself). In the end, I got my Mazda's brakes replaced (and ONLY the ones that actually needed to be replaced) at a fair and reasonable cost, as well as having the noisy, annoying front seat issue resolved at a FRACTION of the price we had expected, all because Ed and his team were willing to go above and beyond. Elmhurst Auto Care has successfully earned my business moving forward, as we will now be life-long customers (and we've already told several friends and relatives about the level of work they provide)!

I was buying a car in this area, and I asked Elmhurst Auto Care to assess the car before I made the purchase. Ed provided a thorough assessment of the car for a very reasonable price and took the time to thoughtfully address all my questions. Highly recommend this place.

Aug’24 Update: I dropped my 14 year old car off with Ed and his team after it failed an IL emissions test and I had just 3 days until my registration expired. They had my car fixed the next day, and when I went to go pick up the vehicle, Ed’s Team had already taken it to the Emissions Test Site and gotten it a Passing rating - this meant I could immediately renew my registration online, and meet the expiration deadline. I was floored by this level of customer service and dedication - in a world that’s increasingly automated, corporatized, and less-personal by the day - trust Ed and Elmhurst Auto Care to take care of YOU and your Vehicle - thanks guys! Jan’24: Always the best service and I TRUST them. They’ve referred me a weld shop that could do a muffler repair for cheaper than they could. Ed’s stayed past closing to fix power steering issues and get me back on the road. I would highly recommend EAC to be your car maintenance experts!

They're great mechanics who care about their work and their customers. Honest, reasonably priced, great work, and friendly service. If you're looking for a mechanic, do yourself a favor and just go here.

Elmhurst Auto Care was recommended to me by a colleague & his son because of positive experiences they had getting their cars serviced there. I was recently there for an alignment and was delighted with my experience. Getting an appointment was super easy. They started working on my car on time and got me out of there in an hour. I felt like the work was thorough as was the explanation of the services rendered. I will happily be driving 20 minutes to get to Elmhurst Auto Care next time one of my vehicles needs service. Give them a try you will not be disappointed!

I had a dead battery in my work van and needed immediate assistance. Ed and his team inspected my battery and electrical system right away and replaced my aging battery. In and out in 30 minutes with plenty of time for me to get to my next afternoon appointment. Great service and professionalism!

Elmhurst Auto Care is exceptional! Their honesty and integrity are unmatched. They provide clear explanations and fair pricing, ensuring you only pay for necessary repairs. Trustworthy and reliable, they go above and beyond to offer top-notch service. I live in Downers Grove and go the extra distance to take my vehicles to Ed and his team - Completely worth it, especially with their convenient pick up and drop off options. Highly recommend to anyone seeking an honest auto repair shop!

Ed and the team are great! With a dead alternator, I barely got my truck to their shop. Once there, they were able to diagnose the issue, order & receive parts, and get me going again in just a couple hours! And their WiFi allowed me to follow up with email and get work done while I waited. Fantastic! (They even punched in the stereo security code after it lost power.) Thanks Ed!

EXCEPTIONAL PROFESSIONAL SERVICE Ed and Brad are friendly, courteous, professional and knowledgeable. Engine light came on and they quickly diagnosed the problem and were able to replace parts needed very quickly. They are always accommodating !! Elmhurst Auto Care is exceptional and done right the first time. Thank you very much for your assistance and making my car always run smoothly.

Hands down the greatest shop I’ve ever had work on any of my vehicles. My truck started spilling coolant everywhere and overheating a mile down the road, and they took me and my vehicle in within the hour. Quickly picked up the part and installed it, and even when it needed another part close to closing time, they lent me a vehicle and even brought me my truck back home. Absolutely top notch service and an extremely friendly staff. I can’t recommend y’all enough!

I came to Elmhurst Auto Care with hope that my vehicle would be fixed correctly & I would receive total honesty throughout the entire process. I am so very grateful that Mr. Ed Czajkowski was there to help me get started & work with me on getting every vehicle I've brought to Elmhurst Auto Care operating properly. I received discounts, warranties on their work, a loner car, timely service & vehicle technicians that know exactly what to detect is wrong, instead of guessing & don't really know the problem. Additionally, every vehicle I've brought to Elmhurst Auto Care has been car washed, prior to my vehicle being returned to me after being repaired. "Thank you so very much ELMHURST AUTO CARE, because it's extremely hard finding a reputable, honest & very experienced car repair shop, practically anywhere today, thank you!"

I brought my car to Ed because my tire was losing pressure. He found the screws and sealed the holes within 30 minutes. The waiting area was very comfortable, stocked with coffee, sodas, and water. Even the bathroom was clean and smelled nice, which is atypical of most auto places I've visited. Ed is most professional and pleasant to deal with and I'll definitely be bringing future business back to him. Thanks for your wonderful service!

No questions asked, this is the best mechanic in the area. Ed is always there to answer questions and is extremely helpful. Finding a mechanic you can trust is crucial as they come with the misconception that they do work that is not necessary - this isn't the case with EAC. Completely trust everything they say and they treat you as a valued customer. My family comes here as well and I will continue to bring all 3 of my vehicles to Ed and his team. Great customer service and pricing as well. Look no further, call EAC!
