I've been taking my car problems to Roger for years and never had a complaint about his service or…read morethe time it took. I had him listen to a mysterious engine noise which I thought was a serious problem. He could have kept the car a couple days and charged me with a dishonest bill. However, he said, "All you need is a $6 can of Sea Foam from NAPA in your oil and that will go away." How great is that?

I wish I could give ZERO (0) stars…read more I took a car in to get a timing belt, water pump, and radiator put in. When I got the car back, my battery was fried and the car wouldn't start. I took it back to Acme for them to dink around for 3 months and not find the issue. I then paid for towing myself to Kalispell Toyota (on Acme's recommendation) for them to tell me that the timing belt was not aligned, all of the wiring was incorrectly installed, a few wires were severed, and multiple bolts were completely missing. I was hit with a $1,400 bill for Kalispell Toyota (for fixing all the above issues). Acme gave me a check for $550 after I already paid them $1,800 to install initially and they took no Ownership other than to say that they may have messed up the wiring. TLDR: Acme incorrectly installed a timing belt, I didn't have a car for 3 months and had to end up paying bills to a towing company, Acme, and Kalispell Toyota (Kalispell Toyota fixed the issue) for something Acme initially incorrectly installed.

RUDE. This was the most unprofessional shop I have ever been to. The guy in front, Hunter, is nice,…read morehowever the lazy mechanic, Marshall-who can't bend over because of his belly is absolutely rude and condescending. After he could not fix the problem with my vehicle I called them back to say the vehicle wouldn't start and his response to me was "is there gas in it?" FU! He also made other derogatory sexist comments to me asking me if I was the owner of my truck when I was the only one who brought it in! He couldn't even fix his own jeep. He had to put a Killswitch in because he couldn't figure out what the problem with his own vehicle was. Do not go here. ACME is a correct name as the shop is a joke.

Unfortunately, it was more than they could work on. Didn't have parts or the tools. After calling at least 5 or 6 other mechanics from Livingston to Bozeman, from dealerships to private mechanics, we finally found Chris at Northwest. We had verbal quotes all over the place and scheduling was July, September and maybe we can fit you in. My husband had called our mechanic in Florida so we knew what it should cost. We needed a new cam and follower. Apparently, this is s common problem on Jeeps with 100,000 miles. We dropped the Jeep off on a Friday with an appointment on the following Friday. We also had a written quote, (not verbal). It was risky to keep driving it so we thought it was better just to leave it at Northwest. Chris said if there was a cancellation then he would work on the Jeep. On Tuesday morning by husband received an email invoice. The Jeep was repaired, ready for pick up and within to quote. We are so thankful that there are still honest, reasonable and reliable mechanics out there. There's so much more to this nightmare, but thanks to Northwest the Jeep is back to exploring.

They wanted me safe and swiftly back on the road. They explained, reassured, laughed with me, and offered help in ways they didn't have to. They wouldn't even take payment until my part is here and the job is truly finished. I've been to plenty of dealerships and shops over the years, and usually it's... well, let's just say it's a "necessary evil" kind of experience. But these fellas? They turned it into something else entirely. Something human. Something good.
