Update: I've been back here twice and have received the same courteous and knowledgeable service. Not by any fault of theirs, my car has had additional problems to fix. Today I called and told them the problem and they came to tow it. This is where it gets good. I don't normally need my car that often, but of course I have a baby shower to attend out of town tomorrow. The woman out there know, I don't have a choice but to drive the 2 hours to attend after committing to be there. And I want to. Anyway...I started calling around for a rental. None available or they won't be open when I can get there. Small town problems. I called Satori's explained the problem and they are providing me with a loaner car. They were going to do that anyway as customer service while working on my car. What they don't do is pick people up. Understandably they are busy. Knowing there was no way I could get there before 7pm to pick up the car he decided they would pick me up. That is above and beyond and I want them and others to know how much I appreciate it. Customer service is a dying art. I am giving a pre review based on my initial experience. I will update after the work is done. I am giving them 5 stars for customer service. I bought a 3rd party car for a winter beater. I drive a mini and they aren't Wi. winter friendly. My father did the work it needed mechanically, but as anyone who owns a foreign car knows, finding the right mechanic is hard in a small town. The owner took the time to call my father so he would understand what I wasn't able to communicate in mechanic speak. He then called me back to set up the appointment. I had a choice to drop it off at the night deposit or show up when they opened. I chose to show up in the morning because he said " It might be better so I can see what problem you are having and to get to know you and your husband." That is customer service.

I had my Lancer tolled to Satori's due to a concern for a possible coolant or oil leak. Received a phone call the following day stating my car was "highly modified" and they will not pursue inspecting or investigating anything; however, drove my car disregarding my complaint of a possible coolant or oil leak. Note: my car only had an intake and cat back exhaust. They stated that it's normal for my car to give off a burning smell with smoky, white exhaust fumes?! They simply stated that nothing was wrong with it. Even my wife, who knows nothing about cars, asked me why my car smelled of burnt rubber. After the phone call, they told me to come pick up the car, yet charged me $60 for "we will not pursue inspecting your car." The day I picked up my car, I was advised to contact the original owner because they were concerned that the oil changes were dirty, some evidence of leaking oil lines, and again, my car was heavily modified. To their surprise, I told them I am the original owner, and performed all maintenances. I knew my car was not dirty, and Satori's tried to pass the buck or think I'm an idiot. And before I left their shop, I was told to bring in my wife's Mazda CX9 if there's ever any issues since it's "factory." (like really?) I told Satori's the CX9 is much harder to work on than the Lancer. Their comments just makes them less reputable. From my experience, I would not recommend this auto shop. You're better off doing your own work or look elsewhere.

Dear Yelpers: Sit down and take a minute to read this:…read more this is a true story. I had a nail in my tire this morning and didn't want to take any chances with it so I started calling around Manitowoc to see who could get me in ASAP. Are you sitting down? I called eight different service centers!! now I understand it was a Friday at 1 o'clock, but I called eight different service centers in Manitowoc and all of them could not fit me in ! even my local regular shop said I could drop it off and come back for it a few hours later in the day but I had errands to run and things to do and I needed the car fixed immediately. my father said "did you try Novak?" He gave me the number and I dialed it right up. I spoke with a friendly agent, I told her my story and I said "do you think I can get into your shop right now?" and she said "absolutely come on down." I was quite excited . I drove over - they pulled the nail out. It was nothing serious. It wasn't leaking any air and my $charge$ was zero for 10 minutes of work. Maybe it was 5 minutes of work. For that reason , I will be coming back for future service. I might be easy to impress, but after this experience, i'll give them another try!
