Took it in around Christmas 2025.First time using this mechanic. Had my steering pump replaced. They were very helpful and informative, always keeping me in the loop regarding the repair status. Completed the work in a timely manner. Friendly and personable. Positive experience. Update 1/18/2026 Unfortunately my vehicle is experiencing the same symptoms as it had before the repair that cost over $500. I will be taking it for a diagnostic, hopefully, this week at a mechanic closer to me. I will update this review further when I get the results.
The store was very professional and finished a lot of work in a matter of a day and a half. They use a website that provided full breakdowns of everything happening to your car, what the mechanic recommends, and pictures of what’s wrong. Highly recommend!
I feel like I was very overpriced. Only the reason why I let you stay there is because I’ve already had it there. I had a quote for 623. I had a code for 618. I had a code for 589 and you guys charged me you guys were trying to charge me $807 minus diagnosis and took it down to 727. I don’t think I’ll ever bring another car there.
Great service! Very helpful. Super nice. Thankfully they found the problem with my car that was not as bad as I had initially thought. Saved me a lot of money. You guys rock.
This is the best place to get your car worked on. The staff is very understanding and will explain everything that needs to go on with your car plus I like that. They don’t fix anything they find unless they tell you about it first. Most places just fix it and then give you the bill. I recommend everybody go here.
We brought our vehicle to his place of business due to the check engine light being on so he did a diagnostic test. We also had him do an oil change due to recently taking a trip and having our oil changed at another facility that didn't do it correctly. After he did the oil change our check engine light disappeared and our car has been running quietly now. I really recommend you taking your vehicle to Automotive Central because he does excellent work.
Best garage ever! From Allie at the desk to the techs that I met, friendly and knowledgeable! I just moved to Iowa from Colorado and I found it very difficult to find a Subaru-certified garage. I found one now in automotive Central, and I will be a forever customer of theirs! I’m sure that if you try them, you will too.
Would recommend and have recommended Rich and his team! Rich, the owner, is very easy to talk with, informative, and willing to work with any car issues that you have. His team serviced my car a few times with great craftsmanship. They are very thorough on their assessment and their work and hold standard and customer service very highly. 5/5 all day!
My name is Thomas, this wonderful man and his team have made my 29 yr old vehicle seem brand new again thank all of you at Automotive Central I will definitely be coming back.
They got me in within a day or two and were communitive after my appointment to make everything was going okay with the services they did for me! Also very nice and welcoming with fair prices.
Rich and everyone I have dealt with from Automotice Central have been easy to work with and straightforward people. They have a good group of mechanics, which can be hard to come by, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to family friends or anyone. You would be in good hands
Had some big services done a few days a ago here, I'm very satisfied with the work they did. Pricing was very fair. It's a very relaxed but professional atmosphere. Debbie, the service writer, was great to work with and had awesome follow up. Rich, the owner, personally introduced himself to me and thanked me for the business. Overall great experience.
I had a horrible experience here. The owner “Ricky” is very unprofessional, rude and classless. It’s hard enough that women can’t trust mechanics due to lies and unprofessionalism. The way he handled the situation was wrong and didn’t try to compromise with me. I stated my check engine light came off and he didn’t even check out my concern, just went on to working on my car. What a Janky mechanic! I wouldn’t bring a dog here! Terrible! , don’t get any service here! Run!
Got me in at short notice, diagnosed my problem, had me back and on the road before close of business. Pricing is very reasonable, service is impeccable. Will definitely be only doing business with then.
If I could give 10 Stars I would. I'm a pilot car driver and my car broke down. Limped to O'Rileys and couldn't fix the car on my own. Called the shop, they sent a mechanic out, helped me get my car to the shop, ran lots of diagnostics before drawing a conclusion then got me right in and got it fixed. Shop owner is AMAZING, staff is super friendly! Didn't try to charge me an arm or a leg either! Great price! Thank You All So Much!
Give them six stars! Long story short, they were open 730am when I needed advice, they were able to get me in asap to correct a mistake I made that morning, everyone I spoke with or encountered were friendly, helpful and welcoming. As far as price I have nothing to compare it to but was a little more then I expected. Thank you again Automotive Central
I had a great experience with Automotive Central! I had quite a few things I needed done on my car and after trying to deal with the Ford dealership for almost two weeks I found Automotive Central. They worked with my warranty company for me and even after needing to order a part for my car they returned my car to me in less than a day and a half. Debbie was great and happily answered all of my questions!
I recently had an issue with my vehicle where the transmission cooler lines were leaking to the point I was afraid to drive it without causing transmission damage. Automotive central was able to get me in on the same day. They actually stayed late to get the job done so I could drive home that same day! I have had several jobs done here and they have always done quality work.
Honest owner/workers After work was done Rich/owner contacted me week later just to check up make sure I was satisfied thought that was real nice. 100% Happy
