What clients say about Ambrosia’s Automotive in Toledo (OH)
Ambrosia's got us scheduled quickly for a horrible grinding noise whenever we turned left. They diagnosed the issue by noon and gave a small list of items that needed attention. We were able to choose the necessary (ball bearings) and an optional (oil change) and it was all done by 4 pm. Thank you guys so much!!
I brought my vehicle in for a no-start issue and specifically for a crankshaft position sensor replacement. The shop replaced the part, but did not perform proper post-repair verification, diagnosis, or system reset.
After the repair, the vehicle still only cranked and would not start. When I asked if the codes were cleared or if the PCM was reset, I was told there were “no codes,” and no meaningful diagnostic testing was done. No confirmation of spark, injector pulse, or sensor synchronization was provided.
Clearing codes and verifying system operation after replacing a critical engine sensor is basic professional practice. Without doing this, there is no way to confirm whether the repair was successful or if the issue was resolved.
Additionally, I supplied proper gaskets for the EGR and intake, yet RTV sealant was used instead of installing the correct gasket. This suggests rushed or shortcut workmanship rather than proper repair standards.
I paid for a repair expecting a professional diagnosis and verification process. Instead, I received a parts swap with no confirmation of functionality and no accountability for the continued no-start condition.
The price was later reduced, which indicates awareness that the job was not handled thoroughly. However, the vehicle was still not fixed.
If you are looking for a shop that will properly diagnose, verify repairs, and stand behind their work, I would strongly recommend going elsewhere.
I heard about this company about four years ago - Only went to them three weeks ago for the first time, Have taken three of my cars there in that past three weeks. I cannot speak more highly Of the workmanship But also the integrity of this company. One of my vehicles it was believed to be a simple fix, When they broke it down and worked on the vehicle, they realized it was a much larger problem - I was not charged a single dollar for any other work they did realizing that the vehicle Would not have been worked on if I known the original diagnosis. It was one of those cases where unfortunately you had to fix other things before you found the main problem. I’ll find that to be unbelievable customer service. I will not be taking my vehicles, including my wife and daughter’s vehicles anywhere else. Highly highly recommend.
I couldn't be happier with the communication, professionalism, and work completed on my bmw. Finding a shop besides the dealership isnt easy. This is 2nd time Ive had my car here for significant work and each time things were done as said and on time. I recommend them to anyone looking to avoid the dealership runaround and price gouging.
I can't recommend Ambrosia's Automotive enough. They took the time to accurately diagnose the issue we were experiencing (no guessing, no upselling) and clearly explained what was going on, in a way that made sense. After an alignment check, a dealership told us we needed a new axle. We took it to Ambrosia's and they were able to pinpoint the exact issue, costing us much less than originally quoted by the dealership. The repair was done quickly and efficiently. We have trusted Ryan and the team to work on our vehicles prior to this, and we have always walked away feeling confident in the work that was completed and not feeling taken advantage of like so many other places.
I appreciate that they were able to figure out what was going on with my vehicle and had it fixed in a day! And bonus!!!! They guarantee the work they did! I'd refer friends and family if they needed a mechanic for sure. PS. My steering wheel and floor mats were still clean!
Yes, yes, yes. Another option to the dealership! Every car on the road have options except Mercedes and Audi, ECT. Ambrosia is the answer! Thank you for the service. As a guy from the West Coast that always updated our European cars this is the answer! Great work and great prices.
What a great experience! Right on time for my appointment, took my vehicle right back, work done quickly and the price quoted was fair and did not change.
The most striking thing about my visit was how they made me feel like family the entire time I was there and treated all their other customers the same! What a joy to find such a diamond in the rough!!!
Great experience with Ambrosia Automotive. They were very timely in responding to my concerns and fully transparent with costs and repair recommendations. Honest, clear communication and no surprises. Highly recommend.
1st and last time there. I brought my car in for a inspection which they charge for, that's ok, but most places do it for free. I agreed to pay. The real problem came when they quoted me $2,000 in repairs. Didn't show me any proof as I waited in there office. Being in shock. I went to another shop that took me in the shop and showed me what they quoted was not needed, none of it. The only thing found was a lower control arm bushing which wasn't even quoted. Save lots of money and stay away from these crooks.
Ambrosias and their team have been working with my wife and i for a couple years now and i can truly say they are reliable, dependable, forthright and upfront everytime.
It is so nice to work with people who truly care about your goals and are willing to work their butts off to try and take care of everyone every time.
Personally im surprised that ambrosia's isnt all over ohio yet🤔
Ryan and his team do an amazing job. Great, friendly, professional service. Very fast and did a great job. We have a foreign car that a lot of places won't touch and they jumped right on it, fixed it in an hour and at a very fair price. I will always support the businesses that can do the job right the first time versus shopping for the lowest price. I would recommend Ambrosia's to anyone looking for honesty and a fair price.
Suspension issues on these cars can be tricky, but they diagnosed the problem quickly and explained everything clearly. The work was done efficiently, the price was fair, and the car drives smoother than it has in years. It’s not easy finding a shop that you can trust with a Tesla, but Ambrosia’s really impressed me with their knowledge and professionalism. Highly recommend them for anyone needing quality suspension or steering work.
At an estimate done on my 2024 Jeep compass for the front driver suspension parts to be checked and they estimated over $2,500 and ended up being a $70 fix they save me a whole lot of money. But they do charge $50 just to pull the car in the garage and lift it up just for that That's nuts.
I can see why they have such high recommendations. These guys were great! from the front desk and scheduling, to the technicians doing the service, and updates on service progress, to the quick, easy and friendly checkout, these guys were courteous, professional and provided above average customer service.
They came highly recommended. And I know why now. Professional, courteous and was able to schedule online. I received a phone call shortly after to set things up. All I needed was a front end alignment and an answer to a question. I got great service, reasonably priced and both other needs met. Nice guys at the front desk. I showed up on the right day because the musical ambiance was bitchin'!
I trust the owners and the team at Ambrosia's automotive. They are very knowledgeable and straight forward about any options, costs, etc. I've always been treated with respect and honesty. The quality of their work speaks for itself, and their customer service is top notch!
They also offer loyalty programs for oil changes, discounts on service, etc.
I have peace of mind bringing my vehicle here because of the quality and integrity I've experienced every time I've ever worked with them.
Ambrosia’s Automotive really takes pride in providing excellent service! They treat every customer with top-tier customer service, attention to detail, no matter how big or small the service is. Thanks for the amazing service!!
When it comes to car repairs, I couldn’t think of a better place to go than Ambrosia’s. Whether it’s in person or over the phone they are always super friendly and knowledgeable. Their prices are reasonable, you know you’re getting quality work, and their communication is phenomenal. I’ve had work done on my car at other shops and I had no idea what was going on, but with Ambrosia’s they’ve always kept me up to date and stayed on top of things.
Thank you for all of your amazing work!
Ambrosia’s Automotive is a Toledo gem when it comes to getting car maintenance done. Ryan the owner and his whole team are very thorough. They pay attention to every detail when it comes to servicing any car that comes in their shop!! I will continue to drive the extra distance to get my car serviced with them. I will be recommending them to anyone looking for service on their car. Keep up the amazing work you do!!
We take all of our vehicles and will continue to do so. The service is quick and they always do a great job. They are honest and treat my family with respect always. We go here for all issues big and small and my experience has consistently been great. Rarely when there is an issue it is corrected quickly. I really appreciate the ownership they take of their work. I am a huge fan of the after hours drop off process as well. I cannot recommend Ambrosia’s enough.
