Had to get my emissions test. They were fast, helpful and friendly. Thankful to find a place close to me that still offers the testing!

I had been 4 other places for emissions testing and been turned away because they only have limited…read morehours, don't offer testing on weekends, etc. and was getting pretty close to the deadline. I checked the auto analyzers website and saw no appt needed 8-4:30 on weekdays. I got there at 4:10 and... guess what? I was told they were done for the day. I'm not a terribly confrontational person, but this being my FIFTH try I mentioned the hours I had seen on the website. I was still met with a little resistance, but pulled it up on my phone and physically showed it to them, and mentioned my (entirely true, by the way) sob story that I had been turned away at 4 other locations and it was due by Saturday and what do you know- they helped a girl out. 4 stars mainly because these false versions of their website (? again don't completely understand what exactly that's about) are very frustrating as a customer but very grateful they helped me out and will definitely be back when I need automotive services!

Watch what they're charging you for. They gave me a written…read morequote for a simple repair and were going to charge me three times the amount for the exact same part I could have gotten elsewhere. Tried to charge me for "shop supplies and "hazardous materials" for a repair that would have used neither one. Quoted labor rates for my simple repair would have been extremely ridiculous for the amount of work that would have been involved. UNSCRUPULOUS SHOP!

Bob's Garage is not only fast when it comes to emission repairs, but also HONEST!!! I took my car…read morein Friday and it was done the next day. He stood by his promise that "he'll make sure the car will pass the emissions test before he gives your car back to you!" Thank you, Bob!!!" Ryan from CHI town Thanks Bob

Wow...where to start. 1) made an appointment for Monday…read more7/28/2025 (don't make appointments if you don't want to work on them) 2) Monday July 28 - Bob called to tell what was needed and we told him to take the time needed to make sure done (did not think it would take more than a week) 3) Friday August 1 - no call we had to call at the end of the day to find out what was going on. His explanation that he had to work on other peoples cars with emission expiring at end of July. Said would be done with it on Monday (had no other choice but to say okay) 4) Monday August 4 - no call again with update - called again at end of day. complained - stated they had car for over a week. because of the complaint he then gave a song and dance that the car needed an engine without any proof it needs one. 5) Tuesday August 5 - picked up car - we told him what time we would be there to pick it up and they were still working on it when we got there - said car needs engine because it has 150k on it which is not a good reason...ask any GOOD mechanic that is not true anymore 6) Tuesday August 5 - received notification stolen credit card (that was kept in bottom of console) was used in Waukegan twice - 7) Wednesday August 6 - realized there were several items stolen from console of car. Bob was rude and denies anything happened at his business. and refused to reimburse us for the stolen items 8) Not only can he not fix cars and gives excuses why he can't, he cannot keep them safe while in his possession. 9) filed a police report documenting the stolen items while at his place of business would give a zero star but not an option Update - 8/7/2025 - come to realize they drove the car 96 miles while in Bob's possession. (it's on the receipt he printed for us) Bob told me he was going to test drive it to the state line and back for a test drive, I'm pretty sure that is not 96 miles.

They did a great job, informing me of problem and took care of it. Friendly staff. Thank youread more

I've had my car there 3 times for service since they first opened their doors a few months ago. In…read moreeach case, I was totally satisfied with the quality of the work done. The first time, I had a coolant leak and the mechanic actually SHOWED me where it was leaking. Actually seeing the problem with my own eyes when the car was on the lift immediately made me feel that they can be trusted. They fixed that problem, did some other overdue maintenance work, and the car's been running much better now, zero problems. The only minor problem I had was that I asked for the parts to be returned to me, and they weren't. That really wasn't a big deal since my driveway isn't full of coolant spots any more. I thought the price for this repair was entirely fair. The second time was a problem that couldn't be duplicated when I was driving it while the tech was in the car with me. Ah well... They didn't charge me for that visit. The most recent visit was exceptional. I managed to get the end of a gas funnel stuck in the neck of my gas tank. This caused all kinds of problems when I'd fill up with gas at Kwik Trip. I tried to fish it out myself, but couldn't. I brought it to the dealership, and they told me they couldn't see it or get it out after allegedly scoping it out. The dealership charged me for that visit. I know they have bills to pay, so I was OK with that. On a whim, I brought it to the new Meineke (formerly Pope Autoworx). I told them what happened and that I wanted them to try to get it out, but I'd pay for an hour of time, no matter what. I told them that I wanted to save the part so I could see it. Well... THEY GOT IT OUT!!!!! The dedication, time and effort that they showed me in actually FIXING this problem impressed the hell out of me. I do my own oil changes and brake jobs, but for nearly everything else, this Meineke garage will be my first call.
