Earl's Repair Lt. Truck & Auto in
Casselton (ND)

I brought my corvette to Earl's for an oil change. It was done in a timely manner with a fair price. They also threw in a homemade air freshener that smells great. They also fixed my brakes and repaired my transmission in my jeep, as a mechanic myself, it's the place I trust, they have the equipment to fix computer controlled systems, which I do not, so when I need something done right I bring it to EARL'S

Always a great experience with great prices and friendly staff! Always offer a ride to and from the shop after vehicle drop off and to pick it back up

Had a low tire coming into town for work. Dropped off the car with no appointment & told them my problem & timeframe & Earls worked me in & had the tire fixed quickly!

I was traveling in North Dakota and experienced a blowout on our camper, I found Earl’s listing on the internet, so glad I did they got the tire I needed, checked all the other tires. Service great and very timely. I recommend Earl’s to travelers. I also was told when I got home that the auto repair business next to i94 isn’t as friendly, so I am glad I made the call and got help from the right place.

Earl's Repair has helped my dad out a few times now, and my dad is a hard to work with crazy old guy. He is stuck in his ways about only going to dealerships for maintenance, otherwise he would go to Earls. But when his car won't start or destroys a valve then Earl's has been very helpful.

Earl’s Repair is a trustworthy car repair shop. They are upfront and honest and aren’t pushy on unnecessary repairs. I love working with Earl, Reed and Joni. Checking them out in Casselton when you need any vehicle repairs.

I took my vehicle into Earl's for a simple alignment. You can see below that there was a list of things they wanted to fix and also wanted to replace a lower control arm and ball bearing because they couldn't align it. Plus they included $2,327.93 worth that they wanted to do also. Now you can see it below the work they wanted to do consisted of replacing rear shocks that have been replaced 6 months ago for $418.46, also says gain access to check transmission fluid level, that's located in the front of this vehicle on the right hand side just below the air cleaner I checked it this morning and it took me a minute they wanted to charge $25.85 wanted to rotate the tires and relearn the TPMS Discount Tire does that for free tire rotation Discount Tire does that for free, check and replace cabin air filter check that this morning it was still clean I'm assuming my oil change dealership which is a full GM dealership did it recently. Then they told me that they couldn't do the alignment because they needed to replace the control arm lower passenger side ball joint was bad also. They couldn't get the lifetime Parts but the parts they could get we're going to be a lot more expensive because of it being a Friday afternoon. Note so everybody understands Joni was awesome she's the one that wrote me up and explained everything to me. Then I had to deal with Reed I believe he is the owner Earl's son. Him and I got in a heated discussion where I got very angry because this is why shops like this get a bad name. Charging $25.85 to check transmission fluid when all you have to do is pull a dipstick charging $30.45 to change out a cabin air filter that was just recently changed charging $35.05 for a tire rotation that didn't need to be done and charging $76.09 for balancing that didn't need to be done and then charging relearning TPMS for $23. 36 which didn't need to be done and all three of these items can get done at Discount Tire for free. Now you'll see below that Bauer Built is where I took the car to next I had them put it up on the rack had them check out all the suspension parts that were noted by Earl's and they found everything was inspect to do the alignment and proceeded to do the alignment. Now this is a company that I had worked with many years during my over-the-road commercial truck driving and worked on my trucks. I gave Earl's a shot because my girlfriend lives in this small town and I like to give my money to local community businesses. But after this experience my money will never go to Earl's. I will pay 20% more to trust who I'm having to do the work somewhere else. And if you look at the Bauer Built cost it was actually less money than what Earls was charging me. Am I assuming a little bit yes I am, but my years of experience in owning a trucking company I have seen almost everything. This whole experience cost me a total of $38 and some change I guess to get my keys back just to get a piece of paper that was trying to charge me for things that I know did not need to be fixed. Or I could get done free somewhere else, Take the information that I've provided and draw your own conclusions. I know Reed will say this was only put out as suggestions, I guess my issue in the situation is that if somebody was in this shop that didn't have my experience what would they have done? If they don't know any better what they have just taken this as gospel and done the work because Earl suggested it? So I guess at this point in time without giving my opinion and what I truly feel and think at this point in time. I'm just going to say always get a second opinion for any work you have done at a shop or when a shop suggests getting the work done. Vehicles are the second most expensive thing you'll buy next to your house and they're the biggest waste of money. So try not to waste any extra money and shop around. Also I didn't do this with angry hateful intent, I put this out here because I think it's important for community members to talk communicate and let them know your experiences so the community gets wiser.

brought our escape in for alignment, they did an inspection and alignment. did a great. job.they do have well experienced techs to do the repairs right. the owner who took time showing what was repaired and future repairs that will need to be addressed.drives like a new car.

. I was worried about all the work my wife’s car needed, Earls treated us very well. They were always up front and had great communication, everything was done correctly and in a timely fashion. Would definitely recommend Earls

Our car broke on I-94 couples miles west of Castleton during our vacations. Quite a stressfull situation. We called Earl's auto repair and by their comments and voice tone, we felt confident that they could handle the situation. They managed to order parts promptly and did the repair as soon as they got them. We got more than an excellent service, we felt like being part of their family. Great people and we got excellent value for the money. Marie and Sebastian, Canada

After a snowstorm I got stuck in the end of my driveway and could not get enough traction to get out. Wrecker companies wanted a ridiculous amount for the little pull I needed to get on to the street. I could not remember if Earls had a tow truck so I gave them a call. Even though Earl's currently does not have a tow truck and were very busy that day they we're more than willing to send over a couple guys with a truck to pull me out as soon as they were available. The fee for the service was so reasonable and very much appreciated. Thank you Earls for coming to my rescue.

I've always had positive experiences at Earl's. There were a couple of oversights, but were taken care of expedisciously. I was so impressed by the time it took to tend to my car at home and get the car in to be worked on. Always a pleasure working with Earl's, I also want to mention how valuable it was to have a loaner car, for a small town this is almost unheard of. Sincerely, Rose Rodacker

These guys are amazing. Ran into car problems when traveling through during the brutal cold snap. -16 degrees and -32 wind chill when i woke up that morning to call to see if they had an opening to get me in. They were able to see me that morning saving me an extra day at the hotel. Being an out of towner and not knowing what exactly the issue with my car was I was in a very vulnerable position. I went in thinking i needed at least one thing and expecting to pay possibly even more for other things they might find. Instead they found a fairly simple fix to my problem for a fraction of what i was expecting to pay. I could not recommend these guys more. Thank you so much and thanks for replacing my gas cap lanyard as well!

My husband was traveling from Bismarck to Bena, MN to go on a ice fishing trip with his uncle and cousins and got past Valley City and his check engine lights came on and he lost speed, was able to limp along until he got to Casselton and stopped at Earl's shop. They were super busy and not able to get him in until next week Tuesday, but Earl heard this and he went out in the cold and ran a diagnostic test and corrected the issue. He went above and beyond to help my husband get back on the road for his family time! No one can replace that kind of service and we wish all the best to Earl, his employees and family!

I had a nail in one of my tires and it was leaking. I was nervous about driving it 20 miles to Casselton. I first took it to Fleet Farm which was near my home. Fleet Farm asked me if I had an appointment. I told him I had no appointment because the nail in my tire did not make an appointment with me. They said they could fix it in four days or maybe after the weekend. The next place I went was a tire store in West Fargo. They said they could fix it in two or three hours. So I took my car to Casselton and to Earl’s repair. They signed me up, brought my car and fixed the nail hole in the tire and had me out of there in under a half hour for $10 less than the tire store was going to charge me. Another time, I got a flat while leaving Casselton. I called Earl’s repair and Earl himself came out and removed my wheel, took it back to the shop, fixed the flat, and returned to put my tire on. This whole process took only 45 minutes. Earl’s repair listens closely to the needs of their customers. Five thumbs up!

These guys saved me. I'm not from North Dakota, just passing by with a load to Canada. My Van broke down 20 miles away. They recommended me a tow truck, we brought the van to them, and they fixed it for me the same day. They stepped into my position, helped transfer my cargo to another van, and got me on the road the same day. besides, they took me to a cafe to eat because I was hungry) I highly recommend these guys to everyone!

The staff at Earls has always worked to make sure our car is in excellent working condition. They make appropriate recommendations for needed repairs. They help keep us on track and keep our vehicles in excellent running condition. We have used their services happily and confidently for the past ten years. They even recently squeezed time in to repair my parents broken headlights when they were in town visiting from Indiana. It’s not often you find service like that!

I can't rave more about Earl's. I love the service I get, the honesty, and great way they have explaining what is wrong with your car! I will only use Earl's so I have paid to have my truck towed to Casselton from Fargo!! Still using Earl's after 4 years and still won't use anyone else.

Came in for a tire rotation and balance. Did not have it done because my treads are worn down enough to not need to be done as I am in need of new tires which they did tell me on a prior oil change visit. I appreciate the honesty at Earls Repair. Another place may have done the work & charged me & it would not have done me any good.

I love this business so much. Reed is always professional and courteous. But what sets Earl's Repair apart from every other mechanic I've ever taken vehicles to is they care about you and your budget. They've never recommended a service I don't need, they don't cut corners, and they perform a phenomenal service every time. If you need work done on your vehicle, take it to Earl's. You won't be disappointed!

I discovered Earl's a while back, after moving out near Casselton. I needed a local place, rather than driving all the way into Fargo. They have been straightforward and honest, as well as reliable in regards to getting repairs done. I'll definitely be bringing my truck into them again in the future

I was traveling through and had truck trouble since Hudson WI the local dealers in Fargo had “no” time to even look at the truck and after my visit at Earls I would highly recommend . From checking in an getting a loaner with a 1 day notice the truck was fixed an back on the road with quick turn around! I wish I had an independent repair shop as honest and kind as this one!! Don’t delay call today.. This is a ***** star facility. Thank you to all

We had a wheel bearing go out on our living quarters horse trailer 5 miles from Earl's. With 3 horses on board, 1 kid, and 2 dogs, we were hoping we weren't stranded. Earl personally helped us repair our wheel bearing and get us back on the road to make it to our equestrian events. Very much appreciated for his awesome service!

Earl's techs always do a great job when taking care of any of my and my husband's vehicles. This last visit, they were ready to take my car in for my oil change as soon as I got there, even though I was 15 minutes early.

My Chev Tahoe is my business vehicle, I drive it all over North and South Dakota to reach my customers, and I definitely get off the beaten path on lots of low maintenance roads. I need my vehicle to be reliable and safe so I know it will get me where I need to go so it's one less thing I have to worry about. Both my business and my life depend on it. I take it and my personal vehicle to Earl's because I know they will check it thoroughly, tell me everything about the vehicle, and put me in the drivers seat as far as what gets done, and that they will do the work I want done and do it right. To put it simply, they can be trusted 100%. I trust them with my business, my safety and my comfort. Give them a try and you will trust them with your vehicles, and your family's safety. And you will know you didn't spend more money than you needed to.

Helps is not always found on the side of the road. I was fortunate to get the kind attention of the same owner of EARL'S REPAIR, Earl helped me with my Chevrolet Spark while I traveling from Michigan to Seattle Wa. Excellent professional work and reasonable prices. Thanks to him and his Tim I got home without problem.

Earl's Repair - Thank you so much for the wonderful service. I appreciate the time you took to diagnose and FULLY explain the issues with my car. Having the thorough inspection done has relieved my fears of more issues. I am impressed that you keep my information on file so we have a base for diagnosing issues in the future! I also appreciate the options given to me in regard to the quality of the parts for my car. It allowed me to prioritize and fit the repairs into my budget. Thanks again for the WONDERFUL service! You have earned my future business.
