Slim's Auto Repair - Anoka, MN…read more Slim's came highly recommended by a close family friend, Dave Marrs -- a man who, even after moving away from Anoka, still drives back just to have Slim's work on his vehicles. That alone told me everything I needed to know about the kind of trust and loyalty this shop inspires. I showed up at Slim's tired, stressed, and honestly just needing someone real -- someone who'd talk to me like a human being, not a problem to rush through. I'd been through enough breakdowns lately (cars and otherwise), and I needed honest communication, fair pricing, and a genuine sense of care. Slim's delivered all of that and more. They explained what needed to be done without condescension or fluff, kept me updated, and finished my "blower motor surgery" along with a few other diagnostics quickly and efficiently. When I picked up my car, I slid into the driver's seat, turned the key, and just knew. You know that feeling -- when the engine hums smooth and steady, and your gut says, "She's good." That's the Slim's difference. It's not just about fixing cars; it's about restoring trust -- in the work, in people, and in the idea that good businesses still exist. Slim's Auto earned not just my five stars, but my respect, gratitude, and repeat business for life. -- Christina Evers #AnokaMN #AutoRepair #FiveStarService #HonestMechanic #CustomerForLife

If I could rate a "0" I would. This is the worst shop I have ever used to service my vehicle. I…read morebrought my vehicle in because the car was shifting erratically and the digital dash was acting erratically as well. Slim's group changed the ECU computer 3 times, and charged me 3 times at $1000 each time, no warranty on the computers that they installed, and I still had the same problem. I took it to another shop, explained the issue and the mechanic said I think I know what it is. $45 later and the car was working as expected. I went back to Slim's to tell that what it was and he called me a liar. Never again! Avoid this business like the plague they are.

Stopped in Monday for an oil change. I had received a city welcome packet of Welcome to the…read moreNeighborhood coupons, and they had provided a free oil change. It's just a small lobby w three chairs but it's all windows/doors so lots of light & see what's going on outside. Ciara is at the desk....and... what a peach is she!!! We talked my entire visit, sharing trauma stories...about cars, it made the time fly by. When I brought in my truck I asked that they check for a leak as someone said there was spots after I left. Much to my disappointment I was parked outside in WI in January during that freezing cold snap.... it cracked my oil filter housing... to the repair tune of $1400!!! She said in the roughly 11 weeks since it happened I'd lost 1.5 quarts of oil. So basically, nothing I want to delay getting fixed!! When you call, you have to leave a message and be called back. The call back isn't a delayed response though. Thanks, no thanks (ha) Coon Rapids Service for the thorough and quick service. Ciara for the delightful service and conversation!

My family has been bringing our cars here for well over twenty years now. Why? Two reasons. They…read moreare the most honest auto repair shop in town and they stand behind their work. Most recently I brought my 2011 Kia Sportage in to have the rear brakes replaced. I picked up my car and went on my way. Well, some crazy sound developed and I brought it back. It turned out one of the calipers was defective so they replaced it in short time. I leave and am happy as a clam because I got my car back. I drove to work the next morning without issue. However, on the way home my car started making a horrible sound from the front. I called Cierra (who is an absolute lifesaver and amazing at her job) and she tells me to drop it off and she'll give me a loaner. This is a Thursday so the week is running out. Friday, I go to work and wait for their call. I finally get the call I've dreaded all day in the early afternoon. Cierra tells me they can't figure it out. All three have driven my car and tried to diagnose the problem and no one can. Cierra asks if it's okay to keep it over the weekend, which is fine. I wouldn't have wanted to drive it anyway. The weekend goes by and I go to work Monday morning. It's not until later afternoon when she calls and I'm thinking the worst. She explains everything that happened and the numerous hours spent on my car. They only replaced some clips that were holding my brake pads in place and said I could pick it up after work. I'm dreading what it will cost, as they spent hours trying to figure out what was wrong. When I arrive, I ask how much I owe them and they said nothing. This isn't even an issue they caused. Yet, they diagnosed and repaired it at no cost. That's a level of service that no longer exists. I was already a faithful customer but it's moments like this that keep me coming back. I will not entrust my vehicle to anyone else, and neither should you.

When buying a used car you need to have them inspected. The first car I brought in needed a new oil pan & the tires were going to need to be replaced. Andy's didn't recommend getting that car. The used car dealership didn't care. So, I walked. Found another car and after just looking at the Carfax report they didn't recommend it. Third time was the charm. Brought the car in, they could not find anything wrong with it. Then they pulled the Kelley Blue Book recommended pricing & told me where to start with the negotiations. The dealer met me in the middle on the discount. We took care of the paperwork and she has a car.

I have a 2015 Audi Q5 I brought in to Andy's Service because the CV joint broke open. I know Audis aren't mechanic's favorites, but Josh was up for it! He worked on my car and it was done efficiently and at a reasonable price! His communication about pricing and procedure was top tier! I dropped off my car the night before because it worked better for my schedule, the key drop off process was easy. And when I picked up, the people at the desk were also lovely. This shop deserves all the praise! Thank you!

Husband took his truck in last night, they said they would have it done same day, however when he called them back just before closing, they hadn't done anything with it. One of the workers told them they were busy playing hacky sack in the shop and wouldn't be taking any cars after 5:30! They quoted him $800 and it quickly went to $2,600 and the possbly $3,900 however they STILL hadn't looked at it! On top of that he was told it would be ready same day then when he followed up, they said it would be ready the next day, then he followed up again and they told him it would be four days! Management offered $100 off and a rental car for the inconvenience but when we asked ti speak to his Manager he said he couldn't share that information and his hands were tied. Well we understand car repairs are not cheap we also understand the importance of honesty and commnication! We told them we would be picking the truck up to take it somewhere else and they told us it was already ready for us. Interesting how that's possible when they said that it was completely torn apart. This experience was one blunder after another! Hoping for a better experience at the next place...rant over; enjoy your weekend all! We have been doing business with this company for over 10 years and have enjoyed working with them. However, the new group of management and employees seems to be worthless. Filed a claim with headquarters, but don't expect to hear anything from them on that either. Two days no vehicle and now moving onto to the next place.

Upon reserving tires and appointments, our costs were included. When we were told our vehicles were completed, the $114.00 installation was at over $300.00!! Yikes, this is not professional to say the least! When questioned, representative stated that online pricing was not correct. Isn't this false advertising?? What a rip off in my book!! If the higher amount is what is to be charged, then that is what needs to be advertised, plain and simple. We will never go back to Firestone Complete on Hansen Blvd again and plan on passing the word.. you work hard for your money and con people take advantage as all tires were already installed! Oh, and it took over two hours to accomplish!!! What a sad place!

This is the ONLY shop I ever bring my automobiles in for repairs PERIOD!!!…read more I've never had such honest, affordable and yes, FAST service as I've experienced here. I trust them with all my vehicles and know I am not getting any FAST one being pulled on me like I've felt places elsewhere. I am always pleased about the service received and dollar spent even when not always happy with the auto issue itself. I've had everything from transmission replacement to ball joints, shocks & struts, brakes, AC, Janky Chevy door handles fixed, various check engine diagnosis' and other repairs to regularly needed oil changes. Like cars do, they need TLC and their components do not last forever and require work and upkeep. And every time something is needed, there is ZERO question where my ride will be repaired. For me, it's a no brainer and I recommend this place to anyone who wants to be treated like a friend or family member with honesty and respect and to just want to be back on the road, feel good and safe again and not have to take out a second mortgage God bless honest shops like this and keep up the great work Brian, Gabe and team!
