What clients say about C & G Automotive in Mounds View (MN)
-
Went in looking to do a number of services. C&G was very transparent about everything and advised me on services that did not need to be done yet. They checked my brake fluid and transmission fluid and said neither of them needed to be changed yet. It was a breathe of fresh air to go somewhere that wasn’t just trying to overcharge every service they can. Will definitely be going back for future services.

Fast yet detailed service, fair and transparent pricing, and friendly, honest staff. They will definitely be my first call the next time something goes wrong with my vehicle.

I can't believe how long I've waited to leave this review C&G Auto is absolutely a phenomenal place to bring your vehicle to get serviced. Geo, one of the owners, is such an amazing and genuine guy just in general, then you add the fact that he works on vehicles and you have yourself a recipe for a trustworthy, time efficient, understanding and well priced garage to bring your vehicle. My brother-in-law pointed me to him 3 years ago. Had great service on that vehicle. Fast forward to this past summer and my son needed one lug nut replaced. Other garages were charging $80-$150 to do this. Geo literally was a fraction of a fraction of this. In fact we tipped him more than he charged because he was so understand of our situation (it was a front wheel on a Hyundai sonata and getting the calipers off of those is a pain in the rear... Otherwise we would have done it ourselves). Now fast forward again to 3 months ago. I was changing my oil on my Honda Pacifica and noticed a lower control arm bushing was coming out. I took a picture and sent it to Geo and asked for his advice on if we could just replace the bushing or the control arm. He gave me an honest and truthful answer which was the arm needs to be replaced and you should do them in pairs. I totally forgot about this until last week. So I called him and he got me in the following Wednesday! So I bought my own parts, brought them to him and he had them done that same morning. BUT, while he was down there he found a larger issue, one that I was aware of but never could figure out where the oil leak was coming from. Ended up being bad seals in the oil filter housing. Turns out that this model year is known for this issue due to the housing being plastic. He replaced with a metal one and recommended a "tune up" while we had all that hardware removed... Which I totally agree with. But what REALLY STANDS OUT for me is his customer service. Geo is the only mechanic that videos real time updates, issues, explanations, etc and texts them to customers. This was so unexpected but SO appreciated! He was able to literally show me the issue, where it was coming from and why it needed to be replaced. Geo ended up sending me 4 videos that explained what he found, what he did, the update and finally the recap of what was done. Being able to see the cracked seals and where the oil was coming from was very comforting!! I can not recommend C&G Auto enough!! Don't let the small building give you 2nd thoughts at all. Trust me, it is filled with a crew with big hearts! Thanks Geo and the rest of the C&G Auto Crew! ¡Muchísimas gracias! >Steve

This is the only place I'll do business. C & G is honest, hard working, and affordable. I recommend this place to everyone living with 25 miles of them. There's no other place that will beat the service and price.

My apartment management decided to be a prick and make up a new rule before I could finish my front end work. They were able to work with me to finish the job at a reasonable price, installing the new parts I already had. Hard to find a trustworthy mechanic that'll do that these days.

New place for me, they fit us in last minute and they were great! Great service, great communication, great price! Absolutely going back.

Very honest, quick, and reasonably priced. I was given a thorough explanation of what was wrong with my vehicle, with no efforts of upselling for unnecessary repairs. Will be back again

I took a vehicle here for a prepurchase inspection and I got one of the most honest and fair assessments from a mechanic I have ever received. I cannot recommend this place enough! Excellent service and extremely honest.

After closing my own Businnes, I recommend. C&G to a large amount of my customers. Every one thanks me for it

I was referred by a family friend. I was so happy with the services, processs and outcome with C & G Automotive! Geo was very honest, and knowledgeable! He explained in detail what was going on with my car and how to help maintenance my vehicle properly! Thank you for the great service! Will be back again when needed!

If you need any kind of work done on your vehicle or a friend is in of top tier repairs, I highly recommend you stop in and and talk to Geo or Carlos. They will not let you down!

I've now brought 2 different vehicles here for some repairs. One was AC repair and the other a bent support arm. The communication was great from start to finish and the cost was very reasonable. I've found a shop I can trust and will be returning if I need any repairs in the future.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND, HONEST, AFFORDABLE Geo was super helpful and friendly! He changed the timing belt/water pump & rear shock absorbers in my 2016 Honda Odyssey. Got me taken care of quickly at an amazing price. Even gave me a sticker for mileage on timing belt replacement to show proof of service, which is something Ive never had on any vehicle Ive ever owned (20+ vehicles over the years). Couldn’t be happier with his service!

Geo is a very busy but trusty and reliable auto technician. I wasn’t able to get an estimate on my services, however, he reassured and even walked me through the vehicle services being done. Very transparent company in the area.

I called c&g for an estimate at 9am they quoted me half price of everywhere else I called so I booked an appointment to drop the car off later I dropped the car off at around 220pm later the same day and they called me at 310pm saying car is done and ready for pick up they also showed me the parts they replaced working as they should amazing work will definitely be going back for any future car repair needs 10 out of 10

Needed a repair on my car and had no appointment. They worked me into their schedule same day. The car is back to running as it should! I would recommend this place for the your next car service.

Geo and his team did a great job. We called and set an appointment up, he quoted us a fair price. He had our car for a few hours the work was done well. Geo was very responsive to questions we had. I will definitely be using C&G Automotive from now on.

Geo went out of his way to help me, even calling me back from vacation. He was friendly, detailed, and thorough, explaining everything to me. And they were fast! I had major brake and bearings work done it was completed next day. Geo even told me to test drive it and return to make sure it met with my approval. I just found my new mechanic!

C&G helped us out when we were having trouble with our Subaru’s transmission. They also took care of a couple problems that had been keeping our check engine light on for months. They did quality work and got things done fast.

Had a bad experience at a prior automotive shop and decided to take my business to C&G instead. What I was expecting to be a few days repair on a rear differential issue turned into less than 48 hours! Geo and his team did a great job and to go along with an even greater price. 10/10 - highly recommend!

I appreciated the work and communication — everything was done professionally. However, I was charged $140 just to clean and adjust the rear brake shoes, which is much higher than what most shops charge. That part felt like an overcharge, but overall the experience was positive and the service was solid. Thank you.

Geo did a great job with my vehicle, was very patient, understanding, and not judgemental of my lateness on my oil change whatsoever. I 100% will be returning to him for future repairs and basic maintenance needs, and recommend family and friends to go to him. He is knowledgeable, as well as friendly and personable and best of all trustworthy! Thank you so much Geo!

Geo is a honest man and does good work. He was able to get my car in quickly and fixed it at a fair price. I would recommend anyone here. It's worth a call to get a quote. 👍👍

I’ve never left a review before but this place deserved it! My radiator blew on the highway and I had to get my car towed, I’m so glad I chose this place to go to. Very respectful and kind staff, reasonable prices, quick turnaround. I highly recommend C & G Automotive to anyone who needs car repair, even on short notice.

I dropped off my Ford Explore for a water pump change and they also changed the time chains, head gasket, coolant and oil. He took the time to explain everything before he even did the work. My truck is running great and all thanks to Geo for hooking it up at a reasonable price and with in a reasonable time frame.

Geo is great to work with. Always listens to what issues you have and is understanding with your time and budget. They do great work at a very affordable price. I would recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a good and honest mechanic.

Left my truck at C&G for some work for the first time today, and was not disappointed. On my appointed day, the diagnosis and work were all done on the same day (amazing, thank you!). The quote and diagnosis were both spot on (truck runs like 5 years ago). I never felt like I was being pressured or upsold on work that was not really needed. Post diagnosis, I was provided a very accurate timeline of when they expected to be done. Pricing was fair, if not a little lower than I expected. I am not looking forward to future vehicle issues, but when I do have them, I definitely know where I will be bringing them.

By far the best service I have ever received and even with my total cost I felt okay walking away paying that knowing that my car was fixed and that I wasn't being overcharged or things weren't being added on just because I am a female. Geobani was polite from start to finish including my call where I had no clue exactly if my car could be taken care of. I will continue to get my car serviced here and would recommend this to anyone

I live in Nebraska and my son is in Minnesota working and the rear end in his truck went out. We took the truck to another shop that was referred to us and they gave my son what we thought was a very high estimate based on my mechanic here. I was then referred to have my son's truck towed to Geo. Once the truck was there Geo went to work and got a rear end shipped in from out of town and then installed in a short period of time. Not to mention he came in under his initial estimate. Geo kept me informed throughout the whole process as to what everything would cost and he saved my son a lot of money versus the first shop. Thank you Geo and C & G automotive for such great service!

C&G has been absolutely amazing. We are new to the area and took my daughters car there for a brake job , simply because the shop was close and good reviews. They had her in and out same day. A few days later the car started over heating and we had it towed back there over the weekend . We called Monday when they were opened and let them know what was going on and had the car back and in working order the next day. Extremely fast service , friendly staff, great communication, owner is informative and offers a good warranty , and prices are very reasonable. This will now be our go to shop for all our vehicle repairs and maintenance. Can't recommend them enough!
