The car was in a horrific state after being flooded during the storm…read more The customer service was just excellent. I had my car detailed after flooding from a recent storm. The job was not perfect but they did a good job with cleaning for the pricey detailing they charged me. The water continued flowing in even after the detailing. Pretty much everything was moved around and not put back in place. The steering wheel, the cup holder, the rearview mirrors. Initially when I turned my car on I got an red screen of death, but fortunately, after I adjusted the steering wheel back in position, it cleared off and got back to normal. My driving glasses disappeared, some items were broken in the process of cleaning. They threw away my wet towels that I was using to clean out the water and some other items which I wasn't too pleased with. It could have been put in a plastic bag instead of taking the liberty to throw away. The garage wasn't exactly near me in the 60626 neighborhood which was a hassle to get to and back. Many of the causes were obviously from the water flooding. Either way, it was cleaned enough to at least get me dried out from the flooding. In the long run I've been happy to be in a clean car.

5 stars for MB Automotive on Wolf Rd in Des Plaines…read more I brought my car in because I was hearing a rubbing sound when turning the front wheels and was worried it might be an expensive repair. They put the car up on the rack, quickly diagnosed the issue, and instead of recommending replacing the original Ford part, they suggested a simple fix that saved me a few hundred dollars. What I appreciated most was the honesty. They easily could have pushed a bigger repair, but they didn't. The whole visit took about 30 minutes and I was back on the road.

How lucky I was to find Scotty and his crew in Des Plaines quite by accident ( driving south on Wolf Rd. on my way to my teaching job at Prairie Lakes Center).

They were very flexible about me dropping car off at night and having it ready the next day in time for to get to my work in the even. All of my personal encounters were pleasant, and they are very good at explaining car problems to a senior who is not tech savvy at all. I highly recommend MB AUTO/ Des Plaines

The first time I went to P & L was in October 2010 after receiving a recommendation from a friend…read more I had gone to a well known quick oil change company and a couple days later I had an oil leak. P & L looked over my car for about an hour and discovered the other company had damaged my oil pan drain plug. They replaced the drain plug and charged me $5.07. Yes, that is Five Dollars and Seven cents. (That includes tax.) There was also the time I bought bad gas and my car kept sputtering. They installed fuel injector cleaner (that time it cost me close to $9.) They have saved me a number of times. Like the time my car would not start when I was in Schaumburg. I refused to have anyone in Schaumburg look at my car, so I had it towed all the way to P & L. (It was just the battery, but the battery was so dead, my car would not even take a jump). P & L only fixes what is necessary, so I usually leave pleasantly surprised as to the cost of the repair. They provide a quote before making any major repairs and they always give the parts back. Except that one time my belt shredded so bad, it looked like string. I did not get the belt back. One thing for sure, they are honest!! If you decide to have them work on your car, call ahead and make an appointment and be prepared to leave the car there. They are a small operation. Sure if you have an emergency (and I have had a few), they will do their best to get you out the same day. I have also waited in their lobby a few times when they were changing the oil. They said no one can properly change your car's oil in a few minutes. An oil change is the time mechanics are suppose to give your car a quick check to make sure everything looks okay. I won't trust my car to anyone else.

When I came to pick it up the old man owner Kipp, like some kind of auto-mechanical mind-reader, says "You we're driving this thing around for 6 or 7 days with grinding brakes you dope."

Fast forward my dad has brought in his suburban for various things, I just left again with my Chevy Cruze after having an overheating/coolant issue and they were already closed when I got there around 645 but still unlocked all the gates and squeezed me in. Great place and makes you feel confident which is rare in the industry.

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!

Wrong sir wrong. Also ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS MOVE FORWARD! This company clearly doesnt respect other businesses or the law. Something to think about.
