After bringing my Trailblazer here I would feel completely comfortable making the decisions on my own. (see photos) They give a comprehensive file with pictures and additional insight to the problems, which is extremely helpful. There were a few questions I had about a couple recommended issues and Pete (who completed my inspection report) was able to clarify them with ease and honesty, so I was able to save money on not having to do that repair. It was more of a riding comfort suggestion so it wasn't a big deal since it doesn't bother me. I received a link to the reports via text and e-mail. For the estimate, you can go down the list, which included each cost, and just click "approve" if you want it done which is very convenient when you are at home. If you have questions call! Like I said above they are very easy to talk to and there was never any feel of pressure. Being pregnant during COVID is a concern but the inside was very clean including the shuttle service vehicle and I was very comfortable being there. They have a drink station there or Dunkin Donuts is next door. I also thought it was neat that they have a big picture window with bar height stools and counter that you can watch the mechanics in the shop. I don't think I've ever seen that before. After the repairs, I called around for other pricing estimates and CBA was around what others were. Some areas were less and some were slightly more. One being the fluid flushes. CBA was about $20-30 more expensive. I am a fairly frugal but I would still choose here versus saving $20 somewhere else, especially if you are getting other work done which could equal out the total price. Plus, you have the photos to prove why the repair needs to be done versus someone basically telling you to trust them.. This is now our first choice for automotive repairs. Good job Christian Brothers Auto, you exceeded my expectations.

C&J was able to get us in so we could get the diagnosis (the engine was done) and start planning our return. If you ever find yourself stranded far from home, you know how overwhelming it feels. You're in an unfamiliar town, your options are limited, and you're trying to figure out who you can trust. From the moment we talked to C & J Automotive in Aurora, we felt like we were talking to someone who genuinely cared. They delivered the bad news with honesty and kindness. It felt less like dealing with a repair shop and more like having a trusted brother or uncle helping you through a really rough day. They never made us feel pressured or taken advantage of, and they've gone above and beyond to help us coordinate everything while we're back home. The shop itself is warm and welcoming, and the seasonal decorations made me smile on an otherwise awful few days. We are incredibly grateful that this happened in a place with people like the team at C & J Automotive. If you're local or traveling through the Iron Range and need someone you can trust, this is the place to go.

My husband and son do most of the maintenance on our own vehicles, so we're not easily impressed when it comes to auto shops. But M & M Automotive absolutely earns our trust and business. What stands out most is their integrity. They're honest, straightforward, and don't pressure you into unnecessary repairs. In fact, we trust them to tell us the truth, even if it's that a car isn't worth putting more money into. That kind of honesty is rare and invaluable. They're also quick, reliable, and reasonably priced. The shop is clean, the staff is friendly, and it's clear they care about doing the job right the first time. Whether it's a small fix or something bigger, we know we're in good hands. Highly recommend M & M Automotive, whether you're a DIY car family or just need a place you can trust, this is it.

AVOID THIS SHOP AT COSTS. I got my car towed here by AAA, they dropped it in front of the garage…read moredoors then they threatened to tow it because where AAA dropped it off at. Ridiculous. They then told me for a week "we will have an update by the end of the day," "we will have an update in the morning" "we will have an update after the weekend." So I called Monday at 8:30, they said, "we will have an update in an hour" so I called back at 10:00, 1.5 hours later, and they still hadn't looked at it they told me it was the next car which was complete bs givin what they had told me the last week. So I chewed the guy out on the phone and told him and the shop to get fuckin bent and I'm getting it towed to a new place. When I got there to get it towed, they had completely snapped my key off and it is stuck in the ignition. So no wonder they hadn't worked on it they couldn't even turn it to neutral to move into shop. They never told me either, they consistently lied to me just feeding me bullshit I am so frustrated with this place and I rarely write reviews. So I hope this saves somebody the trouble off accidentally getting towed to or making an appointment at this hell hole.

My only mistake was trusting this hack to build the trans accordingly. His rebuttal was i should have used a th400. While this may be true the platform does not suppost a larger transmission. Furthermore a quality built th350 should last more then 4 hrs of light use on the trail.​

Yesterday I had an appointment to have my transmission flushed and the filter changed. My…read moreappointment was for 8am, and I arrived 5 minutes early to get checked in and my vehicle ready to be worked on. They started draining my transmission fluid at 9am, and I was given my van back at around 11:40am. They told me I might need the original pan gasket that was not on the van when I took it in, and was not the gasket which was included with the WIX filter. They also told me my rear transmision seal might be leaking and need replaced. I drove 4 miles South to Discount Tire in Blaine to get a new tire. I was there about 30 minutes and they informed me I had a transmission leak. I stopped in next door for lunch and called back to the transmission shop to let them know I had a leak. Kirby, the owner, told me to bring it back so they could try to fix the leak. Kirby said it would probably be about $100.00 I took the van back right after lunch, and the mechanic who had been doing my transmission flush returned from lunch just after I arrived, and got to work changing my rear transmission seal. My mechanic, Tony, told me the seal was the main problem, but that I probably would need the factory style original pan gasket to stop slight leaks at the gasket. The seal replacement total bill was $116.00. The rear seal the next day seems to be dry with no leak puddle under my van like which occured at Discount Tire, but I do have a slight leak still around the gasket which came with the new WIX filter. My van is a 2002 Chevrolet Express 3500 with the 4L80E transmission, a 13 year old service van. Overall I was impressed with this shop's professional knowledge and work ethics. I look forward to doing business with them in the future.
