They have a reasonable labor rate and I noticed that they don't typically have overruns on the labor that some other shops do have. Also they will allow you to order your own parts from summit racing or JEGs and will review the order before you finalize to ensure proper parts abs fitment. I was impressed with the phone communication and that they were able to diagnose a problem that eluded the dealership. Also they like older corvettes and it shows as they know them and are willing to help out with restoration plan. They are worth checking out if you need a trustworthy mechanic in the area.

Costco is BUSY, so I took a chance and called Waukegan Tire in Grayslake because they were around the corner from my house.

I arrived the next morning and he remembered me and took care of me right away! Let's first talk about fantastic customer service and second, I'll confess how much I regret not getting my tires here. I'll make sure to refer Waukegan Tire until it's time to get another set of tires! Well done Waukegan Tire!

Walnut blasting isn't something you do mobile --nor is it recommended for outdoor use near homes or neighbors due to the difficulty of containing the airborne dust and debris. He showed up unprepared, hoping I'd settle for a chemical intake cleaner instead. He burned 30+ minutes talking about car trivia, pulled a spark plug with the battery still connected and the engine hot (a rookie mistake that risks real damage), and then tried running an OBD2 scan with a dead reader. None of this addressed the service I asked for--only to buy time, which he then charged me $65 for, based on what he thought was right. Transparency wasn't there from start to finish. In the end, I rearranged my schedule, got no real work done, and paid for wasted time. From preparation to honesty to execution--everything fell short. To make matters worse, my trusted mechanic later confirmed the spark plug threads were stripped from his work.

The "diagnosis" amounted to briefly checking and SMELLING the gas cap, yet we were charged $150 for that alone. Afterward, we were told we owed an additional $75 that had not been clearly discussed upfront. When we questioned the extra charge, we were told the balance could be sent to collections, which felt unnecessarily aggressive given the situation. The biggest issue was the lack of transparency around pricing and what services were actually being performed. If you do choose to work with them, I highly recommend getting a detailed quote in writing before agreeing to anything. Overall, this was a frustrating experience that left us feeling taken advantage of during an already stressful time. So disappointing. EDIT: Sent threats and called me names after leaving this review... Screenshots attached. Saw his reply To this post, we sent $75 before you came and $75 after you showed up. That would be $150. Then, sent you the other $75 today after you decided to cuss out my boyfriend and threatened him multiple times. Not sure where the hostility towards us came from, but I do hope this review helps others save their time, energy and money from dealing with someone like yourself.

Unfortunately that's not the case I went in for a shake to my tires I even suggested they check my tire rods. They mentioned changing the control arms so I decided fine let's do that.

Here I am at jiffy lube getting a simple oil change three weeks after and they said yes you need tire rods on the right side where I told master pros about the shake. & yup spent $640 for nothing please be careful.

Friday morning I called the dealer and they said they couldn't even look at it for three weeks. So here's the deal - our daughter was supposed to drive Sunday to stay with us in Tennessee for her two week Christmas break and we were watching her dog while she flew to meet friends in another state. Even if her vehicle could be fixed (bent lower control A-arm) somewhat quickly, the timing for her to still drive to be with us for Christmas was very tight. She is a teacher and she had to work Friday, so I was calling places from Tennessee. Another shop said they couldn't get to her vehicle for at least a week. I was thinking she would have to rent a car for two weeks to still make Christmas and her vacation she saved up for all d was looking forward to all year. The second shop recommended Gages Lake Auto & Light Truck. I called and spoke with Todd. He listened to our trouble. Then he said he'd go tow her vehicle from the dealer to Gages Lake and look at it and call me back. That same Friday at 2pm, he called and said they got the parts and would have our daughter's vehicle fixed by closing at 5:30!! She went with coworkers to an after school get together at a local restaurant and then got a ride to the shop where she paid and picked up her vehicle - all fixed! It was a Christmas miracle!!! She drove here (534 miles!) on Sunday as previously planned and everything worked out fine. With all the thanks to Gages Lake Auto!! Her friends and coworkers couldn't believe it and they all asked for the shop's name to put in their phones if they ever need service. We are very thankful for Gages Lake Auto! We will be back whenever we need something!

My wife's 2018 VW Passat was burning about 5qts of oil every thousand miles, and only warm air blew on the driver's side of her vehicle. The entire time we have owned this car, it has only been serviced at VW dealerships. When she got her last oil change at VW, I asked about the high oil consumption, and the answer I received was that the car just does that now. It's old, so it will burn more oil. If VW is telling me this, I could not help but accept this as fact. With the weather turning cold, I brought her car to somewhere closer to home to address the heating issue. I selected Mundelein Tire and Service via Yelp based on the reviews and proximity. I explained the problems and dropped the car off at 8 a.m. I dealt with Steve, who was very personable, professional, and an excellent communicator. When I picked up my vehicle at 4 p.m. the same day, I spoke with Steve and talked to the mechanic who worked on my car. I was treated with a show and tell of the parts removed from my car and immediately felt I brought my vehicle to the right place. The excessive oil consumption issue was addressed by replacing a faulty PCV valve/oil separator. My spark plugs were also coated in oil due to the faulty PCV valve. The passenger side temperature control actuator that directs the airflow on the passenger side was completely seized. When I received my car, I was shocked by the immediate difference in how it drove. We had been driving with diminished power for so long that we had just gotten used to the lack of acceleration. The day before I brought the vehicle in, I had added 5 quarts of oil. Instead of charging me for an oil change, Steve suggested I just change the oil filter. Overall, my car is driving like new again, and the cabin is nice and toasty inside. I received a greatly appreciated discount on the labor due to my military service. I have found where I will bring my vehicle for all my repairs and maintenance needs. Thank you again to Steve and the team; you've earned my appreciation and business for the foreseeable future.
