Called this place and they said that if I could limp my car there right now they could squeeze me in, and take a look at my car. They looked at it, and were able to get it repaired and ready for pick up the next day in time for me to go to work. They also gave me an accurate quote so I wasn't surprised with the bill. All in all, I highly recommend if you have car troubles.

He was quick to provide next-day availability, and worked away for three long days, staying late on the last night to make sure my car was ready for work the next day. Unfortunately, we encountered some technical difficulties late at night that stumped us. Ben spent the night researching what the problem could be, determined to get my car back on the road as soon as possible. My car runs like new, all thanks to Ben's hard work and determination. Ben is experienced, reliable, genuine, friendly, and will get the job done no matter what it takes. Thank you!

About two weeks ago, I was on my way to pick up my boyfriend and heard a pop in my tire. Yes - I…read moregot a flat tire. Of course, I was going back to Minneapolis that specific day for my birthday weekend and had no time to sit and wait for my tire to be fixed. I called many tire shops and finally decided to stop into this one. This guy took a look at my tire for about two minutes, pulled a piece of metal out of my tire and then proceeded to tell me that my tire was not fixable and I needed to purchase FOUR brand new tires from him. I went back to the cities on my spare and then stopped into a different shop that I usually get my tires at and they took a look at my tire and literally said, "this is an easy $25 fix." This place is a full - on scam. These employees almost made me spend $1000 on all new tires. Not okay. Never coming here ever again.

I cannot recommend Foreign Affairs based on my experience…read more I brought my Volvo in for an oil leak. While waiting for parts, I began noticing a clicking/grinding sensation under my left foot while turning and specifically asked them to inspect the driver's side front suspension/steering. I was told everything looked good. After the cam plug repair, my car was almost out of oil on my first trip out of town a day later. I called and was told to keep adding oil. Over the next two months I added approximately three quarts of oil, far more than the roughly one quart between oil changes I had experienced before the repair. Shortly afterward, my CV axle boot tore, throwing grease around the wheel. After several phone calls, the owner acknowledged they had missed the issue I originally asked them to inspect and replaced the boot at no charge. Unfortunately, the problems continued. I was later told another cam plug was leaking and that parts had been ordered, but I never received a follow-up call. I also felt my concerns about the persistent clicking/grinding were repeatedly dismissed, and different invoices described the complaint differently than I had reported it. I ultimately sought a second opinion. Another shop repaired the remaining cam plug leak for less than foreign affairs charges, replaced the CV axle, and was able to remove the axle without replacing the transmission after I had been told I might eventually need one because the axle was seized. What disappointed me most wasn't that my older vehicle needed repairs--it was the communication and how difficult it was to get clear answers. I also felt frustrated that my final bill exceeded the quoted amount because a coolant top-off was added without asking me first. Throughout all of this Jeff told me to "give him a break, we are overwhelmed". I left feeling less confident in my car than when I brought it in, and I cannot recommend this shop based on my experience.
