I'll keep to the facts. In April, I went to this location to have them check out an issue I was having with my brakes. They quoted me at $1700. I took it to another mechanic for a second opinion and had the work completed for $250. I received a coupon for a $20 oil change and with it being so close to my home, I figured I would give them a second shot. They called me and told me that my wheel bearing was "very, very" loose and that I was in danger of my wheel coming off, which I found odd, given I didn't notice any abnormali... read more

True to their name. Went in for an oil change, which is very reasonable at a baseline price of $25, which includes a full inspection. They found that my serpentine belt was in really rough shape--even showed me the belt so I could see the damage for myself. The fee for labor and part was $130, which is on the low end of what I'd seen. They also found that my tires needed rotation, which would have been $20 (also a fair price, from what I've seen), but tire rotation is free as part of my purchase agreement from Costco, and I'... read more

Awhile back I brought my car in because it was making a really loud clanking noise. Turns out my engine had thrown a rod and my car was basically done. So as I was looking at new cars Honest-1 let me keep my car on their lot free of charge until it was towed away. They were very helpful throughout the whole process.

I went in to get a diagnostics test which cost me 145 dollars. One guy told me they it took a couple hours so that's why it cost that much. Another guy told me it was 145/hr for diagnostics. That felt fishy. And I have had cheaper diagnostics tests done elsewhere. Then I was quoted nearly 500 dollars to get a evap selenoid valve replaced, a part that costs 35 dollars. I called another repair shop that quoted me 130 dollars for parts and labor. I told the Honest 1 people that I wanted to go elsewhere, and they suddenly found ... read more

These guys are AWESOME. They are genuinely friendly and helpful, and do what they can to put customers at ease. They make an effort to explain things well and don't try to sell you on parts and services you don't need.

These people are scammers. I have tried to resolve an issue with the ironically named "Honest-1" auto care on Lyndale for nearly a year now. Not only are they unreasonable, they are rude. I don't I have the time or money to sue. My only recourse at this point is to alert others not to patronize this business. Scam.

They over charged for diagnosis. $125 for a couple of minutes of work on his part when we told them what the issue was before he looked at it. There was additional charge for environmental fee when we did not have them do the actual work to fix it. We found another place to do the actual repair and that place was less than half the cost of this place quoted us.

These guys are awesome!!!! Came in for an oil change and they showed me that one of my tires was about to literally come off, very unsafe, and I probably would've been in big trouble with that one! they fixed all the issues at a good price and they were super helpful and friendly and even had one of their guys drive me home and pick me up once my car was finished. I'm so happy with the work that they did and they had a great attitude I'll definitely be coming back and tell all my friends to come here! Thanks!!
