They made sure I was comfortable while I waited -- even offered me cold water on a hot day! They also gave me a free air freshener, checked the air in my tires, and made sure everything was topped off and good to go. It's those little thoughtful details that really set this place apart. Highly recommend this location if you want great customer care and quick, reliable service! You can tell they Value their customers !

After bringing my Trailblazer here I would feel completely comfortable making the decisions on my own. (see photos) They give a comprehensive file with pictures and additional insight to the problems, which is extremely helpful. There were a few questions I had about a couple recommended issues and Pete (who completed my inspection report) was able to clarify them with ease and honesty, so I was able to save money on not having to do that repair. It was more of a riding comfort suggestion so it wasn't a big deal since it doesn't bother me. I received a link to the reports via text and e-mail. For the estimate, you can go down the list, which included each cost, and just click "approve" if you want it done which is very convenient when you are at home. If you have questions call! Like I said above they are very easy to talk to and there was never any feel of pressure. Being pregnant during COVID is a concern but the inside was very clean including the shuttle service vehicle and I was very comfortable being there. They have a drink station there or Dunkin Donuts is next door. I also thought it was neat that they have a big picture window with bar height stools and counter that you can watch the mechanics in the shop. I don't think I've ever seen that before. After the repairs, I called around for other pricing estimates and CBA was around what others were. Some areas were less and some were slightly more. One being the fluid flushes. CBA was about $20-30 more expensive. I am a fairly frugal but I would still choose here versus saving $20 somewhere else, especially if you are getting other work done which could equal out the total price. Plus, you have the photos to prove why the repair needs to be done versus someone basically telling you to trust them.. This is now our first choice for automotive repairs. Good job Christian Brothers Auto, you exceeded my expectations.

I have not been to this location before but I will continue to go to this location due to how awesome the service was!! This was early morning, so there was no line and I was able to get in very quickly. Normally an oil change would take about 15-20 which is still super fast! But because I was the only car, these guys worked on my car like a pit crew and I was out in 10 mins! These guys changed my oil, topped off my coolant, changed my windshield wipers, changed the engine filter, pumped up my tires, and topped off my washer fluid! They all had awesome customer service! I also got a discount, which with a flyer is pretty standard but I didn't have the flyer this time. I believe the value was great and I am happy with how far my dollar stretched here! These guys definitely have my business and I WILL be back!

After my check engine light went on (and I may have let my oil change go a bit longer than normal)…read moreI decided to give this location a try! Somethings to know: You are not making an appointment. You will more than likely sit and wait to get in. It says "15 minute oil change" but account for about 20-30 minutes per car. If you don't like waiting, go make an appointment somewhere. They will do an oil change, check your lights, fill your tires, top off your washer fluid and do a quick inspection of under the hood. They can change out batteries here. The employees I encountered were great! A stand out was Andrew (I believe that was his name) He was so great! Awesome costumer service skills! He's the reason I would come back to this location! He checked my engine light and made sure the car was safe to drive! What I needed repaired was more that what this place can do, but it gave me peace of mind until I could get to the dealership! Go to the website! They normally have a $10 off coupon! And if you are on their mailing list I have seen $15 off an oil change! Overall I was very happy with the service I received here! Bring a book or have your phone changed in case you have to wait in line!

I was surprised when he asked what size engine, model & plates? We had a good chuckle when i jumbled the letters & he replied "well you're not a ford f150". Surprise!! The fella who i discussed the 80s 90s area w whom i thought was also here for an appointment made a plates comment as i left. Oh, hello, i didnt realize you worked here! I appreciated that when i gave the coupon to the tech he stated it was for a basic oil change, i could do synthetic & just pay the difference? I opted that route for $26 & change. From in to out i was there around 45 minutes. After he got me checked in a gal came in w a dog. Surprise...also not a customer. She was Ashley the counter person and her dog? Well just a calm, relaxed Loki. Comfortable waiting room/lobby w four spaced out leather seats. There was a kuerig. Hometown is easy to find & get in to the lot. As w most places Hometown gave my truck a once over.....when my oil change was complete Ashley said there was about half brake pad use. Nothing to be concerned about, i have time, they'll check them again. That was it! Not even a guesstimate for what I'd be looking at! Thanks, no pressure and no hassle! When i was checking in i had handed over the coupon, which was returned to me because "there's a $30 off service coupon". So if i need brakes before it expires.... Thanks for the good service!

Ok.. so I live in CA, but from Coon Rapids, MN grew up in CR many moons ago. All garages I knew for…read morehelp no longer exist and was sort of at a loss not once, but twice on our short 5 day stay in Aug 2022. Perhaps I'm used to super high prices in CA and lack of customer service on many occasions, though CA does have it's bright shining star establishments as well.. this place just stands out all around! Ten stars!! (if I could) So, I had an issue with control sway bars on our tiny airstream after severe weather coming through S. Dakota.. not vehicle related per se, but worth a try as our garage at home in CA has some guys with trailer experience always willing to help. Worth a shot after no luck with trailer/RV places.. Doug was so awesome just on the phone.. wasn't sure they could help but stop by for a free look over and if they could help they would.. had a couple guys experienced with trailers and thought they could help.. turns out, we did stop by on our way out of town as planned and they totally helped fix our issue with the sway bars - so much appreciation and all no charge. Because of the warm and welcomed interaction on the phone request for help with sway bars.. I knew this shop was top notch. Go figure the AC on our Expedition went out too and had to come in before that trailer appointment and got us on the road in about 45 min with cool AC for about $150.. I mean, seriously in CA I would have been charged $180 just to have it looked at be told "sorry" can't help, our will apply to a $500-800 charge.... Of course I fixed it.. and to be transparent it was the cost to look, troubleshoot, test systems and then add coolant.. We then came back for our scheduled day out look at the trailer and we're on the road. I will choose Hometown Autocare any day any time before ANYONE else!!.. I love these guys and Hometown Autocare, my AC is STILL STRONG and super COLD even over a month later! If we have any issues next summer we are straight back to you! Thank You!!! Also, the website listed here is not correct.. use this: https://www.hometownautocare.net Huge RECOMMEND if you want honest people who care about you!

Slim's Auto Repair - Anoka, MN…read more Slim's came highly recommended by a close family friend, Dave Marrs -- a man who, even after moving away from Anoka, still drives back just to have Slim's work on his vehicles. That alone told me everything I needed to know about the kind of trust and loyalty this shop inspires. I showed up at Slim's tired, stressed, and honestly just needing someone real -- someone who'd talk to me like a human being, not a problem to rush through. I'd been through enough breakdowns lately (cars and otherwise), and I needed honest communication, fair pricing, and a genuine sense of care. Slim's delivered all of that and more. They explained what needed to be done without condescension or fluff, kept me updated, and finished my "blower motor surgery" along with a few other diagnostics quickly and efficiently. When I picked up my car, I slid into the driver's seat, turned the key, and just knew. You know that feeling -- when the engine hums smooth and steady, and your gut says, "She's good." That's the Slim's difference. It's not just about fixing cars; it's about restoring trust -- in the work, in people, and in the idea that good businesses still exist. Slim's Auto earned not just my five stars, but my respect, gratitude, and repeat business for life. -- Christina Evers #AnokaMN #AutoRepair #FiveStarService #HonestMechanic #CustomerForLife

They are so honest, they'll tell you when you don't need something done to save you money. They don't try to "upsell" everything by telling you 20 other things you should have them do to your vehicle. They will tell you if something truly needs attention though. They have always done super high quality work, and at a very fair price with good turnaround time. They are prompt with communication and never go silent. All around, this is the best place I have ever used. I put my trust in them with all my vehicles, and they never disappoint. You can't go wrong here.
