Everyone I interacted with was pleasantly kind and helpful, and the waiting lobby was comfortable and clean.

It's been a few years but I am still fuming about when I brought in my Hyundai Elantra for a minor…read moreproblem. I bought the car from a family who lived next door to a good friend of mine. All three parties dealt with this. All are trustworthy and told me it needed a minor repair like a muffler. Big A Auto told me the entire under area of car had been messed up from someone who didn't know what they were doing. He said it'd be $2,000 to fix it. At the time I thought maybe the college driver had let someone work on it so I paid it. My mistake as I didn't take time to think it thru. I know the folks I bought it from were honest and long time friends. Big A lied. They showed me of a fuzzy gray video t was supposed to be the problem area but of course it meant nothing to me and was just part of the deception. I will never go back to Big A again. Since I am an older woman needing the service I think they felt they could lie to me about the car.

Matt is an absolute angel!!…read more The steep pitch of the Ichiban exit (yes I was driving at a normal speed and yes others have had the same trouble! - but no, the restaurant hasn't fixed it ) caused my car to bottom out and knocked my bumper RIGHT OFF!! We heard a bang and a scrape so immediately pulled over in to the first parking lot, which happened to be Vaughn's Automotive. We called the 24 hour emergency number and Matt came right over to help us! He patched us back together so we could safely drive until we can get a more full repair. He was competent, he was kind, he was helpful, and he was funny ... he took a bad situation and made it as good as we could've hoped for. This is a great and honest and kind man! You can feel confident about placing your trust in him! I drove from Rockford to visit my daughter and thanks to Matt, we still made it to line dancing!!

I was stranded at home with my 2004 BMW parked on the street across town since it stopped running…read moresmoothly. I thought I may have needed to have the engine replaced for thousands of dollars. Matt, the owner, picked me up at home, took me to the car, ran the codes, and figured out the issue was a loose air intake duct. He tightened that and my car was good to go! If I had gone to anyone else, like a BMW dealership, I'm sure they would have taken advantage and overcharged me for a simple fix. I'll be having all my cars worked on at Vaughn's. He's earned a lifetime customer. Best experience I've ever had with a mechanic... Honest and dependable! That's what you want in a mechanic shop and that's exactly what Matt and Vaughn's delivers!

They were able to open the truck in under 5 minutes. I'm sure McCanns has some great qualities but in a pinch I wouldn't suggest them for opening a locked car.
