After 3 hours of waiting, I walked into the check in/out counter and found my car sitting there ready to go. No technician bothered to let me know even though I have told them I was waiting at the wait area. I was asked to make payment before they would shared with me the car inspection result. I asked about how often I should do the tire rotation and was told it should be done with any oil change. I was surprised that no one told me about it when I dropped off the car. The staff who checked me out just said that it was because I didn't ask. I am so disappointed with their service. In addition, they charge higher service rate than local car mechanics. I will never recommend this Honda service department at Savoy, IL to anyone.

"I've been bringing all 4 of my vehicles to Anderson Automotive for quite some time now, and I…read morecan honestly say he is hands down one of the best mechanics around. Not only is he incredibly skilled and knowledgeable, but he's also honest and transparent, which is something you don't see often these days. The labor rates are fair, and I always feel like I'm getting the best value for the work that's done. He takes the time to explain any issues and is never pushy about unnecessary repairs. If you're looking for a mechanic you can trust, I highly recommend Andersons Automotive. you won't be disappointed!

Since my last review Jim (Anderson) has sold the place to Ryan, a longtime employee at Andersons…read more This happens often in family owned businesses, and in this case it worked out great. Ryan continues Jim's commitment to doing excellent work and helping customers maintain their automobiles at reasonable prices. More than once Ryan has told me that I'd save money taking my car elsewhere to a place that had the tools to do it. One minor change is that Ryan no longer wants to do oil changes as the costs of having so many different brands and grades of oil in the shop had become prohibitive. He'll do them, but he wants something like $50 as he now goes to the store to buy the oils you want to use. That said, he's always been extremely honest and affordable whenever we've had repairs done there. It's still called Anderson's ( and Jim even occasionally is to be found there when things are busy), but under Ryan it remains an excellent repair shop. ___________ Old Review Below_____________ Anderson's is a small, unimpressive looking auto repair business on Country Fair in Champaign, between Springfield and John Streets. But they have earned my trust and become my go-to repair shop. Jim Anderson, the original owner is not around as much after he retired, but he made sure the shop is in good hands and he is around the shop from time to time to work on cars and check on things. I am not sure if he sold the business or simply hired more workers since he retired. In any event, the important point is that they are scrupulously honest and highly competent. If there is a repair beyond their ability they will let you know immediately and not try to fix it themselves For example, they don't do body work. I've never had a problem with their work, never had to bring a car back, and always found their prices reasonable, even low. More than once I've taken a car in and they tell me the fix is unnecessary or much smaller than I expected. Recently I took my van in because the brakes were squealing whenever I depressed the pedal. Expecting that I needed a brake job or rotors, I was told that when they took the wheel off they noticed the brakes had a lot of life in them but had visible rust and dirt. Their recommendation, drive the car more often; it got rusty because it sits so much of the time. He recommended that riding the brakes for a mile would be a really quick cure and wouldn't hurt anything, and he was right! He could have sold me an expensive brake job, but instead he solved the problem with no charge, not even for his time! He will always ask if you want the expensive fix or if you want the "good enough" fix when one exists. As far as I can tell, using him for ten years now, he's never sold me unneeded repairs. Even my wife feels comfortable taking her car to him without me accompanying her. He doesn't treat women any differently than he treats men. He won't take advantage of women or young people either. That said, I'm not sure I would take a car to him if I needed a transmission rebuild or something really specialized. My hunch is it would be OK, but I have no experience with this kind of major repair (knock on wood!). If I need one, I'll ask if he can do it, but I can say for certain that he can or cannot do such repairs. His prices, even for "expensive jobs," are always really good. Better than any other place I've found. Much better than dealerships, but that is no great feat. But his prices are always better than other independent garages I've been to. A lot of my friends use Rick's Auto in campustown, and I've used him too. Karch runs a fine shop, but Anderson's matches their quality at a much better price. All in all, I think you should feel good taking your car to Andersons. They'll do a great job and they will tell you if you should take it elsewhere.

(Although I'm almost 60) Once behind the wheel, I knew BMW was for me. Charlie introduced me to his manager Ken and the owner Ben. 2 super guys! He took the time to introduce me to the service staff and pointed out a letter that's displayed on the showroom from the BMW corporate office that congratulates them for being the top rated dealer in the nation!

Before the purchase, the staff spoke politely and seemed helpful. However, once the car was driven off their lot, the attitude completely changed. They became rude, dismissive, and unwilling to provide any assistance. The manager offered no support and did nothing to resolve the issues I raised. This behavior is unacceptable. Buying a car is a major investment, and customers deserve honesty, respect, and continued support after the sale. Unfortunately, Sierra BMW failed in all of these areas. I recommend that anyone considering a vehicle purchase look elsewhere to avoid the poor treatment I experienced.

Have taken my old European car there, esp. after the dealer told me it "wasn't leaking coolant"…read morealthough I saw coolant drips on the driveway, and had to keep adding coolant. Twice at the dealer, and they basically told me there wasn't a problem. Peter B worked on it, and said the issue is the hose size -- metric vs. US. If someone uses a US hose, it will be not be exactly right, and will leak once the car heats up and everything is at pressure. No more problems after Peter B worked on it. Also took my older Camry there, and asked about my newer Camry. Peter B (ie, the phone staff) was upfront about things they can work on, and things they don't. They are very busy, and I prefer to know this information before booking an appointment for 6 weeks in the future. So, I think is a time saver to have a thorough discussion on the phone at Peter B. (I hate these webforms dealers are using now -- there's a) no place to record specific issues, they basically only want a simple job, like a 40k checkover, etc. and b) dealer service intake staff never read the webform anyway. So what's the point?) The phone staff at Peter B is very knowledgeable, too.
