As I was calling around to find a place that offered same-day car inspections, I was pleasantly…read moresurprised that 17th Street Automotive offered scheduled appointments for inspections with same-day service. Normally with car inspections, I have to drop my car off at an auto-body shop and pick it up the next day due to the "first come, first serve" policy but I didn't have that option so I booked an appointment with 17th Street Automotive for the same day. As soon as I walked into the office, I was happily greeted by Kristen and another worker. They both were extremely pleasant and personable. I was quoted a service time of about an hour and a half and was offered beverages while I wait, which was a very nice gesture. My state inspection was completed after an hour and a half, just as they quoted me. Kristen was very informative with the things they found during the inspection and with how amazing their customer service was, I would definitely return to get my car serviced with them. I was given a free car freshener once the service was complete and told them I would tell everyone I knew about the exceptional experience I had with their business. If you are looking for same-day inspections or in need of any car services, I highly recommend checking out 17th Street Automotive.

Completely unacceptable, frustrating experience…read more I paid $1,338 for front brakes and calipers, and within six months I was still having braking issues. When I returned, they replaced only one front rotor under warranty. After a third visit for the same braking noise/vibration, I was told the problem was my rear brakes, even though those had been replaced only three months earlier at another shop. I then went to three independent shops, and all confirmed the real issue was a warped front rotor (the one not replaced the second time I brought it in). This should've been fixed the second or third time I brought it in. Instead they shifted blame to another shop, in which their work was confirmed to be fine. And for the price I paid, I shouldn't have had to bring it in multiple times for the same issue. Still after three visits and over $1,300 spent, my issue was still not properly fixed. The only good thing about this experience was that it was under warranty, and another shop was able to fix my brakes properly. I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before trusting this shop, and if possible save your time and go elsewhere.

On 2/11/2025, I dropped off my vehicle via tow truck. I showed up and talked with the shop about…read morewhat we felt the issue was with my car and that I had the part. I then received a call that stated I had purchased the wrong part, and they were ordering a new one - Great. The correct part was ordered, which was delayed because of a snow storm. They get the part, and go to put it in, finding that the lower radiator hose was actually not the issue, but it was the upper radiator hose. Ok, great let's fix it. They ordered it and again we waited. A few days passed and no word. I called and asked what was going on. Now, it is not the hoses, but the water pump housing is leaking. So we order that part. We waited. No calls from them, so I called again. Then, I'm told they got the water pump housing in, did another pressure test and there is a leak in the radiator itself. So yes, now we have to order that and get it installed. (Mind you when the first hose was reported to not be the issue I was told it was not installed). Finally my car is ready. I go to pick it up, and I question the first hose being installed still. After a lot of back and forth, I just said forget it and paid for the work. But not one time did they make the effort to call me first, not one time did I know what was going on. Then, I get told they did an oil change - not sure why because I didn't ask for it - and charged me $132 for an oil change, which I could have had done up the street for $54. Then I am told there is no gas in the car and that the battery is weak. I said I never had issues with the battery before I came. Well after coming home and my car sitting for one day, we have to replace the battery. As we replace it, we see that is was obviously not the battery we had and was one that someone attempted to cover up that they had done some battery work. Funny thing is I knew something had been done because all of my setting in my car were gone. They had my car for 1 month, I paid over $2400 to get it back, not including the 4 weeks of rental, and now a $200 battery. The lack of accountability is astonishing because I said something about the lack of communication and it was brushed off. Their billboard says Small Town Feel Big time service or something like that. Negative. A small town company should have much better service, they are not that busy that a call to me wasn't made. So they may be good at doing something quick, but most shops are going to run that pressure test prior to replacing anything and not just replace part after part after part. I called another shop and was advised that when the pressure test is done it gives the indication of where all leaks are, not just one at a time. So was this done to inflate my bill? Who knows. I do know I won't be back and I will use the best part of living in a small town - everyone will know everything. Price gouging, lack of customer service, switching out batteries, just not a good look. BBB and licensing bureau will be notified.

We had just traveled from Kansas to North Carolina which was a good 16 hours of driving. That was when we discovered that our brakes on my uncles' Ford Edge were going out. Being from out of town and not knowing where to go when you are having car problems can be very nerve wracking. But, heard about Calibrated Auto and gave them a call. One of the sweetest gals I have ever met answered the phone that morning and had us come in right then. After visiting with Kathy and explaining our situation she went straight back to the guys in the back and they pulled the car in right then. She had offered to take us back to the hotel that we had stayed in the night before but we had already checked out. And at that revelation, Kathy offered up her OWN CAR to use if we needed to go somewhere. Who does that?! Especially to a complete stranger!! We stayed and visited with Kathy the entire time and never felt like we were in the way or a bother! After a good solid 3 hours, they had us up and running again! The entire crew there will never know how appreciative my uncle and I are for getting us in at the last minute and making us feel so welcome and allowing us to get back home safe. *I hope you all enjoyed the donuts!*

I hate giving bad reviews, but I feel they tried to take advantage of me, maybe because I'm a woman, or maybe because of my Trump sticker on my car, or maybe that's just their norm. Regardless, it breaks my heart because I always try to go to local shops and give them my money instead of big businesses, and as a single mom, I can use all the help I can get! (Couldn't we all nowadays?!) The only reason they got one star is because of awesome Briar, the young lady at the front desk: she is great!!
