I got stranded on the highway due to an alternator that suddenly went bad and fried a battery. They took me in that same day and I got the car by 2:30pm. The cost was also "fair" for what was something I usually would've had to wait for. I recommend this place. read more

I was disappointed to find I was charged for an hour of diagnostic work when part of that time was used by the shop employee to go buy breakfast at McDonald's. I had dropped off my truck to have them inspect an issue with the 4x4 system. After receiving their repair quote, I realized I could not afford the cost. I understand that's not the shop's fault. However, upon getting the truck back, I found a McDonald's receipt inside that showed the employee had stepped out mid-inspection to purchase food. While I can appreciate needing a quick bite, it seems inappropriate to charge a customer for time not fully spent addressing the vehicle repair. I wanted to provide feedback that this did not meet my expectations of paying for labor on actual inspection work. read more

Valpo college kid had tire issue on car. Clements not only patched the tire quickly and with reasonable price, they filled up all other vehicle tires. Strongly recommend this local business for any mechanical issues. Fair price and fantastic service. read more

We called Clements regarding our son's 2007 Sonata. He attends Valparaiso University and the shop is super close to the college. The fan blower motor was not working. We were able to bring the vehicle in the next day. It was diagnosed and repaired the same day. Price was very reasonable and the staff was very friendly. We are very happy with the overall experience. Mary H. read more

My husband and I have taken all our vehicles here for years after catching another local repair shop charging us to replace a part they did not replace. We have always had honest, professional service at a fair price. Highly recommend Clements! read more

Was looking for a reliable auto repair shop to get away from the up-selling car dealer repair shop. Read review for Clements. Needed front brakes for my 4 year old vehicle. Set up the appointment time. These guys did the work in the time frame I needed to have the car back for my use. The price was 15% less than the dealer shop quoted. They evaluated a couple other maintenance suggestions that came from the car dealer. At this time nothing else needed to be done. Mike did not try to up sell and we discussed how he operates his shop with an emphasis on doing good work. From this experience I highly recommend Clements. I will be back in a couple months for my oil change. One of the mechanics gave me a ride when I dropped off the car and he was friendly and informative. read more

Had a great experience here, very friendly staff. I brought my car in and they looked at it right away. It ended up being an easy fix and they were nice enough to do it for no charge. I'll definitely be back here again the next time I have car troubles. read more

I am a student here at valparaiso university and i was looking for reasonable price service with trustworthy people. This is definitely the place! I had gotten a recommendation to Clements from a local saying "they're great people and they wont charge you an arm and a leg like some other places." They had my brake lines fixed quickly and they were very polite and kind! Would definitely bring my car here again! read more

My son is a student at Valpo. The brake line on his Honda Civic broke. Someone on The Valpo Parents facebook referred him to Clements. They were honest, quick and fair. read more

Thank God I discovered this place. I've been getting screwed on auto repairs my entire life until I found Clements. Fast, reasonably-priced service without attempts to upsell you and they are honest to a fault. "No, you don't need brakes yet - come back in about 10k miles." What mechanic tells you that? This one. read more

Clements auto repair has been straightfoward and clear. They tell me how they have diagnosed the problem, they present me with the costs and the options if there are any. They don't fix things which don't need fixing. They never talk down to me. Any related replairs they suggest are aways plausible. One time they even called to say that their initial diagnosis was wrong, and the repair would be much simpler. I have had cars repaired here several times over about 5 years. Most recently it was an oxygen sensor code, plus routine changing of some fluids. I've always been satisfied. read more

I have stopped into this business on several occasions and spoken to a decent sample of the customers. All of the people I spoke to were loyal customers for many years. They bragged about how great the work is, how fair the price is and the honesty of the employees. I had a minor leak in my tire due to a screw I ran over. It was fixed for me, no attempt to sell me new tires or to tell me more is wrong with my car. That's as much as I can expect from them. Oh, and the cost was very, very reasonable! read more
