Forest City Auto in
Forest City (IA)

This is the first business that I always call when I need my vehicle serviced. This great staff always goes that extra mile to help their customers. (Pun not intended.)

Great customer service and super fast

Forest City Auto is awesome! Great service! Knowledgeable about my vehicle’s needs! Prompt! Courteous! Honest! Reasonable! Thank you FC Auto staff! 🙂

Needed a new thermostat in my van. Craig and Dave were wonderful! Both answered all my questions and gave useful advice for future maintenance needs. Will return for other auto repairs! Got heat again! Thank you, Forest City Auto!

Great service & speedy enough to get us back on the road

Just went out there and explained what was wrong and they got it in right away,even took me back and showed me what was wrong. I will definitely bring my business back when needed. Thank you so much.

The service in general was excellent, good attention, kindness, understanding, very attentive, good explanations. Really very satisfied I recommend and in my next project I will return without a doubt 🫡👍🫡

I came in and asked how much it would cost me to have them put in my headlight lamps. I already purchased them and only needed them put in. I was quoted $77. I asked for my current headlights to be returned to me as they are only 2 weeks old, they just aren't bright enough to suit me. So I dropped off my truck and went to work. When I got off work and went to the parking lot, which they did return my truck to my job for me, there was a bill on my passenger seat charging me $145 for a service that I was told would cost me $77!!! Then, driving home that night, I noticed my headlights are pointed straight to the sky! I couldn't find my old headlights anywhere in my truck, for they kept them! And 2 days later my wife was putting wiper fluid in and along the ledge by the windshield wipers she found a bolt. I discovered that they didn't even bolt my headlight housing back in, so my driver side housing just wobbles around and my truck looks like it has a lazy eye! Absolutely terrible business! Never again would I bring anything here for repair!!! I'm not even paying the bill for this!!!

Thank you! Your team was amazing! You took the time to find the problem, fix it, and advised me on what to watch out for! I appreciate you repairing the air conditioning system rather than replacing it. I'm a very satisfied customer! See you soon for the oil change!

Our jeep broke down, tow service (Dave’s Auto lake mills) recommended Forest City auto repair and it was a good choice. Shop replaced starter and tie rod—we came back with motorhome, picked up,jeep and traveled east towards home. Jeep is fine and we are well satisfied

Called at 8:42 asking for an oil change appointment. I was told to have my truck there by 9:00 and they’d get me in. I hadn’t left the office and they were pulling my truck in and getting to work. Fast, prompt, super friendly service. Great business!

Great place, great pricing and great people. They’ve earned my business for all my needs that they offer. Thanks for getting my oil change done quickly and checking my muffler/exhaust for me. Much appreciated!

All the people that I was in contact were knowlegable and thorough about their business. I will recommend their services and continue to take auto repairs there.

Been coming here for 6 years!!! Greatly appreciate the service and Hospitality I have continuously received!!! Thank you much! Chance! Craig. Angie Mason

I do allot of my own vehicle service but when I need work done that requires more expertise the guys at Forest City auto never fail. Work is done well and on time. Thanks again!

They are always willing to help whenever I need it and even pick up and drop off my car when I’m working. Very kind people and good prices.

Within certain industries, it can be hard to find someone you can trust. Doctors, Dentists, Thulian Shamans, and of course - mechanics. That's why I am grateful for the crew over there at Forest City Auto. Craig, Tyler, Jeremiah, and the rest. Good peeps. Honest. Good men... and thorough. From giving my car a look-see from top to bottom at no cost, to same day service, to affordable work - they really have made me a happy customer each and every time. It may be weird to say that I hope not to see them too often (who wants car trouble, right?). But if I have to see a mechanic, I am glad to have Forest City Auto on my side! Thanks, guys. Sincerely, BDZack

LOVE this place!! Went in with dash lights flashing and they had me fixed and back on the road within the hour. Always so friendly and accommodating. Go there!

Very respectful and knowledgeable in all of their services. They do a great job of helping you understand exactly what you need what you don’t and they have fair prices. Would definitely recommend them to anybody.

From the first minute that I walked into Forest City Auto, I felt welcomed like I was a part of their family. Chance explained things to me about my vehicle that noone ever has before. They replaced the parts that needed to be, and not any extra parts like bigger shops may have tried to do. They were fast at scheduling, and repairing my vehicle. They have earned all of my future repairs, service and recommendations to everyone I know.

Mike and the team are first rate. I am third generation LI but have lived out of the State for 12 years. Last month while visiting I got a flat. Less than 24 hours later I was good to go with excellent service at a fair price. Clean, friendly and up front.

Very happy with the service. As a full time RV traveler, it is always nice when you meet up with a business that helps you out with a problem. We had a problem with our utility trailer that hauls our motorcycle. Not only did they pick up the trailer they did a complete job in servicing it and then returned it to me. They picked it up on Friday and returned it on Monday afternoon. They repacked the bearings replaced the end caps, replaced 3 tires and fixed the lights. I would recommend this business to anyone in need, no nonsense repairs, what a concept!

Being from another state, I didn’t know where to get service for a battery and flat tire as I sat at the Winnebago rally grounds. A friend from Forest City told me she and her 2 sons take all their vehicles to Forest City Auto so that was good for me. The crew on grounds jump started the car and aired up tire, to get me to the shop. Once there, battery was replaced and tire was plugged all in a little over an hours time. I definitely commend them for a job well done and highly recommend them. Thank you!

Chance and the team at Forest City Auto are amazing. Every time we go there to get our cars worked on, they are more than happy to show and explain the issue. They answer all my questions, no matter how simple they may be. It's also reassuring to know that my belongings are safe, which can't be said about some other places. Highly recommend! Thanks, everyone.

Car runs very well sense fixed, and very happy with how fast the work was done! I am a person who lives from pay check to pay check and I appreciate the fact that they are letting me make payments on the work they have done, they are a life saver in my eyes! Thank you Forest City Auto!

Chance fixed my car up efficiently and very well, have had no problems with it since and im extremely grateful for his service! He was very understanding and helped me understand the process that would take place, super happy with my experience! would definitely recommend this place (especially chance!)

Without a Volvo dealer in this area, Forest City Auto takes the challenge of doing repairs to my Volvos. They repaired our 2007 all-wheel drive system in 2019, which was later wrecked by a deer at Christmas. And replaced the alternator in our remaining 2010 (requiring the complete removal of the intake manifold system) during the coldest days of 2019. They discovered additional damage once disassembled requiring more parts. At that point, Forest City Auto offered us a "loaner" car which REALLY saved us! Thank you for great service and fair prices!
