If I could give Budget Radiator and Automotive 10 stars, I absolutely would!…read more We were in Springfield from St. Charles for my daughter's MCDA Honors Choir workshops and concert when our 2015 Honda Odyssey suddenly started flashing warning lights on the highway--FCW, LDW, a flashing Drive indicator, and the check engine light. We were only about 7 miles out from our hotel, but we were worried we might be looking at a transmission replacement as it seemed like the transmission went "limp" and wouldn't change gears while driving! The team at Budget Radiator and Automotive got us in quickly, took the time to thoroughly diagnose the problem, and didn't jump to conclusions or try to sell us unnecessary repairs. They found that the alternator had failed, but they didn't stop there. During the repair they discovered the serpentine belt and tensioner were also failing because the belt kept slipping off. They explained everything clearly, showed us what was happening, and made sure the repair was done correctly. After replacing the alternator, serpentine belt, and tensioner, they checked the transmission fluid at my request, (which looked great), then test drove the van for about 20 miles to make sure everything was working properly before calling us. That's the kind of attention to detail and professionalism every customer hopes for. The van now runs beautifully, all of the warning lights are gone, and we have complete confidence driving it home. When you're traveling and your vehicle breaks down hundreds of miles from home, you're putting a lot of trust in a repair shop you've never met. Budget Radiator and Automotive earned that trust from the moment we walked in. They were honest, knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely cared about getting us safely back on the road--not just fixing a car. Thank you for turning a stressful situation into such a positive experience. If we're ever in Springfield and need automotive service again, this will be our first call. I highly recommend Budget Radiator and Automotive to anyone looking for a shop they can trust.

It's too expensive these days for those of us who aren't rich enough to to not be concerned about money. I've found Missouri, and especially the area of Ozark and Nixa, where my daughter and family live, to remind me of New England, where I grew up. Recently, on someone's recommendation I took my car to Springfield to get it fixed, spending several hundred dollars and still having problems afterwards. Kenny at K & S fixed it in under an hour, charging me less than a third of what I paid juts a couple of weeks before. He'll be my goto guy from now on and I'll be sure to recommend him to anyone who needs help with their vehicle, without having to worry about it!

So, when Firestone (in front of Battlefield Mall) told me I needed over a grand of work on my car, I was both worried and skeptical. K&S Auto was recommended to me and I made an appointment. He checked out my car and told me that my car was in great shape and would likely need a tune-up by the end of summer. In short, everything they told me at Firestone was a lie and my car was A-okay. I had him install new brake pads and have had him help us out 3 more times and everytime he has been awesome. If something can wait, he says it. If something is getting serious, he gives me options. He is honest, sweet and personable. I highly recommend K&S Auto to everybody. It is worth the drive so make an appointment and don't get taken advantage of again!!!

The car also had an odd musty smell they blamed on a recent wash/detail that they said would be gone in a few days but it lasted two months until I traded it off at a loss. A few days later when it was 6° the vehicle overheated drastically. When you buy a car from a shop that can do full service auto repair, you KIND OF expect a vehicle you buy in December to have antifreeze in the coolant system. Anyhow $692 later I had it repaired at another shop. I'd rather not do any more business with Rusty. Oh and when I traded it, there was prior body damage that wasn't mentioned when I asked about the Carfax. I lost $2500 driving the car two months, but was glad to be rid of it.
