They treat you like family, never talked down to me or patronize me (a big thing for a female who is used to others trying to make me feel badly or take advantage of me). This has been my experience at all their locations. Most recently, I was heading back to Wisconsin for a family wedding. Long story short- I had car issues and Nelson's was the first call I made. They told me to bring it by and looked at it immediately. They were so kind, quick to act, and empathetic--I truly felt seen and valued. They helped me learn what I needed to do, and worked with me to get the job done right. I had to come for a follow up, and they took care of me again with such kindness, efficiency, and care. Cannot recommend enough!

Oh and it was half of the cost of a certain shady specialty shop that I won't mention. Bravo Bobby & Steve's.

I kinda piled things up with my car and when I finally took it in I was looking for an oil change, new brake light, tire rotation, and air pressure checked. I was hoping I could have all this done for around $125. I left with an $80 bill and they fixed a problem that I had with a tire sensor that I have had for YEARS (MULTIPLE places have offered to fix this for around $200). I was completely blown away. My care needs full synthetic oil and I've been charged upwards of $100 for just an oil change. Southeast was more than affordable and I got one for around half of that. The printout they gave me was very detailed, they didn't offer anything extra than what I was there for and as mentioned before they actually took the time to put the right amount of air in the tires and informed me my sensor was never even broken to begin with. You do need to make an appointment (but I was still able to get in just 2 days out) and drop your car off in the morning. By noon my car was finished and I was able to pick it up. I will absolutely be back and it is honestly the best experience I've ever had at an auto service place. They are very very honest and if you are still considering someplace else, just look at the other 5 star reviews. Southeast is the best!

They were able to get my daughter's car in, fixed and back on the road in less than one entire afternoon.....of course this was also in the month of December, during a snowstorm and her car had been encased in ice and snow from being broken down.

I have to mention Matt. He is like a walking wikipedia when it comes to cars (except he seems to always be correct). He answered all my questions, and even coached me on haggling and it was a total success. He also gave me a free travel mug and a bottle opener keychain, too :) The downside, if you could call it that, was the $100 charge. But that's comparable to similar shops in the cities and it did come with two hours of testing and the peace of mind of knowing my car isn't going to fall apart like a looney tunes car. Looking forward to seeing them for other services. Now I just have to get over my buyer's remorse. (I have to pay what for how many years??)

At my first job out of college, my boss, a senior university administrator, complained to me about…read morehaving to bring her brother (or some other male) to the car dealership so that the salesperson wouldn't give her the dumb-broad pitch. When I asked her to recommend a mechanic for my first car, she said she never had any problem with Gorshe. Although I am male, I don't work on cars, and at the time, this endorsement carried particular weight. That was in 1990, three cars ago. I suspect most people have no frame of reference for a review of a no-nonsense mechanic that has served the Dinkytown neighborhood for over 20 years and treats customers with respect. That would explain why Yelp filtered the first two five-star reviews of Gorshe Auto. So let me provide some balance. There's no 30-point "safety check", no free coffee (although I've never asked), no waiting room or children's play area. There's also no loaner car, and if you have a full-size van or SUV, you might not be able to fit on the lift. On the plus side, I bought my last vehicle, a used minivan in 2005 with 60,000 miles on it, and as of November 2013 I have 185,000 miles. I count on Gorshe to keep it tuned up and stay ahead of the maintenance curve. I have never been stranded. Since the only maintenance work I perform myself is filling the tires, the only reason I could confidently buy a used car is that I knew I could rely on Gorshe to keep it running from day one. Now that I'm in Eagan, it's more difficult to make it over to Dinkytown during the day, since it's a family-operated business and they're only open 8-5. That said, when the 19-year-old at Tires Plus said I needed suspension work or I might have a catastrophic failure, I thanked him for the advice and took the estimate to Gorshe.

I purchased a used ford focus 2011 back in january from a honda dealer…read more I took the car to this place to make sure everything was ok since the car was vibrating during idles and low speeds etc etc. and dealer says 'the car is mechanically sound' said there was nothing wrong, and that its just a ford. I told him I have had fords and they do not drive like that... told me to just turn up the radio to ignore rattles.... I asked whether its motor mounts, he asked if I found info online and blew me off... fast forward 6months... took car into ford dealership for 75k mile service... lo and behold, they found that motor mounts are bad.. on top of that power steering fluid and coolant has gone bad AND an oil leak needing front timing cover repair (est cost ~$2200). so far I have only repaired motor mounts and replaced power steering fluid (leak wasn't terribly bad). Car is extremely quiet and drives like it just came out of the factory. I cannot believe how they ignored my suggestions and didn't even care to look at the car and blew me off saying its a ford. Original dealer I bought the car from (honda) could've covered most of the cost if he actually LOOKED at the car. Never again.

Because there are family owned businesses, and they were judging me. I am a mixed-race American. Who has been judged many times but to be judged by a local service provider. Who was going to be working on my vehicle is an outrage. The service center states that they will charge you half up front for any service that is to be done so that they can purchase the parts ahead of time. Allowing anything different would mean that the judgment they made against me was purely race-related and not a business decision. I recommend you try another service station
