I must have called and stopped by at least 15 body shops all over the Twin Cities before I found Bona Bros. Name a shop you've heard of, I went there and was told no. Body shops that work on rust are a dying breed! I get it-- rust is the cancer of the car. But we still treat cancer. The folks at Bona primarily work on specialty vehicles, like ambulances, delivery trucks, etc., where it is worth the money to do body repairs rather than totaling the whole vehicle. Al said he would take a look and send me an estimate. When he did, he gently suggested I should consider finding a new car, instead. But he also quoted out the whole job and said they were happy to do it if I wanted. I'm emotionally invested in the car, so it was worth the price. Al and his team did a fantastic job replacing the floorboards for me. He kept me in the loop with updates as they worked, and the final total came in under the initial quote. If you have a car with rust, this is the place to take it.

Turns out there is an oxygen pressure sensor vent that's part of the gas cap. I had recently switched out the original one for an after-market one and apparently the seal wasn't exactly right. I put the original back in and the Check Engine light went out. Some other repair techs might have charged an awful lot to "investigate and diagnose" that problem. (It is a stupidly severe warning for something so simple.) Dave's been up front and fair in all my repair assessments so far. Highly recommended!

I've been going to Nelson's since 2016. I have been to the Uptown location off Lyndale as well as…read morethe Green Garage! I LOVE NELSON'S! They treat you like family, never talked down to me or patronize me (a big thing for a female who is used to others trying to make me feel badly or take advantage of me). This has been my experience at all their locations. Most recently, I was heading back to Wisconsin for a family wedding. Long story short- I had car issues and Nelson's was the first call I made. They told me to bring it by and looked at it immediately. They were so kind, quick to act, and empathetic--I truly felt seen and valued. They helped me learn what I needed to do, and worked with me to get the job done right. I had to come for a follow up, and they took care of me again with such kindness, efficiency, and care. Cannot recommend enough!

I have to mention Matt. He is like a walking wikipedia when it comes to cars (except he seems to always be correct). He answered all my questions, and even coached me on haggling and it was a total success. He also gave me a free travel mug and a bottle opener keychain, too :) The downside, if you could call it that, was the $100 charge. But that's comparable to similar shops in the cities and it did come with two hours of testing and the peace of mind of knowing my car isn't going to fall apart like a looney tunes car. Looking forward to seeing them for other services. Now I just have to get over my buyer's remorse. (I have to pay what for how many years??)

As I continued to drive it out to where I had to go the Check Engine light went on. I had this problem before which is an Engine Misfire. On one of the Sparkplugs and Cylinders. I had contact my relative and she sent me to Midas In Eden Prairie, MN. Boy DID I MAKE A BIG MISTAKE. Midas told me I had to replace a whole cylinder head!! IT was gonna cost me $6k!! That is like a good used car! On top of that they we're inspecting other parts of the car that was not necessary! Unfortunately, I had to pay $122 for the diagnostic but I by change had contacted on Craig's List another Mechanic who referred me to Erik. I had told Erick and he himself was shocked at my story! He new Midas was BS-ing and I went to him. My engine was still fine! I just needed new spark plugs which he believed Midas technicians damage by pulling it out the improper way and new great quality coils which I should have don vs buying from Ebay. All in All I only spent $400 and my engine was running great. Please come over here! He won't rip you off with Lies about the car! 5 stars in my book especially coming from Chicago, IL.
