I recently moved up to the Pine River area and needed to find a solid mechanic to do some work on…read morean old Jeep Grand Wagoneer that I am trying to keep running as a daily runner as well as restore it to its former glory. Some neighbors recommended Double A Automotive, which is good as it's definitely the closest repair shop to me. Basically, I needed a bunch of random things done (some of which I told them, others that they informed me of), and tasked the boys at Double A Automotive to determine what needed to be done, and preform the work as needed. Now, I take this Jeep seriously and want everything done pretty much perfectly. Call me anal, but I want to consider this a restoration - I needed people who were straight shooters, preformed quality work, and are able to think outside the box a bit as parts are not easy to come by. My neighbors were right. Double A set me up right, did TONS of work to a 30 year old jeep and got her squared up. The kicker? I gave them a budget cap of $2,000 to fix whatever needed fixing - they billed me for $1,200. Nothing else - no fake charges, no complications (except ones that I created), no jerking around over the charges. Hands down, the best mechanics I have EVER worked with, and I will be giving them ALL of my business in the future. You should too. (Located about 4 minutes East of downtown Pine River on MN 84)

I stopped at a parts store in hopes of getting a referral and was sent to Watt Automotive. I took the vehicle to them on Monday morning, explained my issue and time constraint. The staff (front desk, service mgr., and mechanic) all listened and responded positively to my vacation issues, time constraints and varied concerns. Apparently my issue was pretty unique and they had to consult with their online mechanic chat community to find a solution. They took the time and extra effort to diagnosis, explain and resolve my problem quickly. We were able to enjoy our vacation with a loaner car and minimal inconvenience. Watt Automotive is a first class auto service provider and went above and beyond to help me with my 'unique' problems and requests. Thanks for the exceptional service, fair price and a job well done!
