Mike runs his very busy shop like a small-town biz that depends on word of mouth and repeat customers (I am one). I even dragged my elderly sister from VT here when her car got sick during a visit. She wishes she had a Kool Breeze clone in her area... Mike and his mechanics are thorough and clearly like their work. They will NOT try to sell u what u don't need!!! Wow. Do be prepared to tell Mike detailed symptoms about your car's problem, so he can more easily/cheaply diagnose. I just left the shop. Got there at 8 am, concerned I needed new brakes. They had me out by 9 am with NO charge bc my brakes are "like new", just a little noisy in the mornings.... Here's one super happy customer. TEN stars.

But I used to take my car in and expect to pay $500 and walk away spending $300. It was awesome. Now, I go in expecting to pay $300 and I end up spending $600. And their upselling doesn't feel great. It seems like they're not just being helpful. It honestly feels like the people on the phone are making a commission. I'm not saying that's what's going on, but it wasn't like this before. What happened? And the extras they're adding are incredibly expensive. If the thing I'm getting fixed costs $300, I don't want to be told you need these little things and it ends up being $600. Come on guys! I don't want to look for another mechanic, but I guess I better. So yeah, if you want it fixed, this is your place. But I would just absolutely say no when they start upselling you on things like an oil change, filters, tire rotations, etc...

My…read morefirst time was for independent inspection of my car prior to purchasing it and their great service was what kept me coming back . As a first-time car owner, I always have questions about the maintenance timeline, so I really appreciate that the owner is easy to communicate with and he is ready to help and answer my questions. On top of all, I like that I am within a walking distance to my work on UK campus after I drop off my car.. One thing I found very helpful was to call them 1-2 days before bringing in my car , as they can get pretty busy during certain times of the year. In most cases though, 1-day notice is enough.. This is definitely a great place for your car..

I called the shop and Mike said to bring it over even though they were swamped with work. They looked over my truck and determined it was an AC compressor belt that was binding up.

Though 5-Star couldn't give my an approximate price over the phone, they were the only ones who would squeeze me in the same day. Everyone here was really friendly. 5-Star said all I really needed right now was my breaks and rotors; and they said the belt was fine. What a relief! I was happy to find out they didn't try to buy other stuff for my vehicle. They did tho, give an extra paper filled with suggestions for future car repairs. I thought that was really kind to give us a heads up; and that they didn't say that we needed it all right now. Anyway, being about 7 mins from my house and living in Lexington for over 3 years, I had yet to find a repair shop that I just loved. I will be coming back again for all of my repairs!!! Thanks for everything!!!

I arrived at 8am and Ellen (who made the appointment) told me she had me down for 10am. My husband picked me up. At 2pm, I called to check progress on my car and she told me she would check & call me back. I didn't get a call so I called back @3pm and same person told me that it was finished but the "supervisor" needed to check it. My husband dropped me off and it took a half hour to get the bill. I ask her why I had not been notified about appointment change and she didn't respond, no apology was given (my husband heard the conversation when I made the appointment and was told 8am) . With oil change and battery testing they charged $92.68 with $25.00 of that being for battery testing. I had used 5 Star several times over the years with good results but not this time and never again.
