I called the (2) local dealerships for my vehicle & Don "K" rep Darryl couldn't fit me in but recommended Advanced Auto Repair. (If that's how Don K. takes care of customers - even non-customers - I applaud them!) Brian at AAR worked me in the NEXT MORNING, found the (thankfully!) minor problem, fixed it, test drove it twice, and even removed & checked the other front tire, bearings, & linkage at NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. I was in-and-out within 90 minutes, was charged next-to-nothing for their time & effort & had an enjoyable conversation as a bonus - AAR was an answer to a prayer! Honest, knowledgable, hard-working. I recommend with NO reservations - this is how a business should be run. Again, kudos to Daryl at Don "K", as well! The only problem is I wish AAR was about 600 miles closer to where I live....

About the crew at Automotive Professionals in Columbia Falls. Let me tell you: kindness wins. These…read moremen didn't just shuffle me into a waiting room with a shrug. They cared. They wanted me safe and swiftly back on the road. They explained, reassured, laughed with me, and offered help in ways they didn't have to. They wouldn't even take payment until my part is here and the job is truly finished. I've been to plenty of dealerships and shops over the years, and usually it's... well, let's just say it's a "necessary evil" kind of experience. But these fellas? They turned it into something else entirely. Something human. Something good.

LAURIA RACING & REPAIR!! YES!! Stop searching all the auto repair shops cuz this is the ONLY one…read morethat you can trust; that has the BEST owner & technicians, with the MOST ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE ... OVER ALL OTHERS IN THE AREA. Everyone at Lauria, including the owner RJ, have the greatest attitudes & personalities; THEY OPERATE WITH INTEGRITY AND CARE; they seem to understand what their customers are going thru, and they do what it takes to help them in times of need ... where all or so many other auto repair shops, and their employees, have failed miserably in all areas just mentioned; that only suggested extremely high cost incorrect diagnoses and quotes for repairs. Lauria Racing & Repair is honestly worth the 5-star review rating they currently have, but if I could, I would give them a 10+. Jared worked on a very puzzling problem with my car that had no heat and the blower would only blow out the middle vents ... no defrost or floor blower operation. Others told me my only solution was to tear my entire dash & more out; I needed to replace the entire heating system... heater core to all other mechanical parts that are part of the heating system... which would take "forever" or a ton of hours to do, which would be extremely expensive. I could not afford to do all that other auto shops said was needed. I had just gone through multiple very costly car repairs, one after another, this year (2025); and I already owed much more than I could afford at this point. The cold season (October) was beginning; I became very upset & depressed that I needed to try to drive my car with no heat - no defrost thru the winter. Eventually I received unexpected help from an awesome organization, DRIVING HOPE [*PLEASE HELP THEM TO KEEP HELPING PEOPLE LIKE ME; DONATE TO THEM]; and they referred me to Lauria Racing & Repair. Jared worked on my car and solved my problems/issues in about an hour, with no tearing apart my entire dash and replacing everything that had to do with the heating system! I also needed a new water pump, which Lauria's time to replace was much less than all other auto shops I visited. I returned to Lauria December 23rd with no heat/no defrost... my blower quit. So I stopped late in the afternoon unannounced... no warning call or appointment ... my intention was just to ask which fuse was actually for my blower (the car manual diagram was confusing to me); and to see if they could test my car with a computerized scanner they have, that they used to solve and fix my previous heat/blower problems. I was so shocked and surprised... and I guess a bit "excited" and relieved inside (Not sure if excited is the correct word but...); they took my car into the garage and started working on it and found that a wire to my blower had burned. I was sad & worried... BUT THEY FIXED IT!! Very much NOT expected! THANK YOU!!! The communication, customer service and time JR and Jared gave me; explaining and listening to me, was exceptional and something you will not see or experience with all the other shops in the area that I had previously gone to and called since 2017. THANK YOU, LAURIA RACING & REPAIR, for your AWESOME CUSTOMER SERVICE & patience; and helping me when I really needed it the most! I REALLY appreciate you all! I think of JR, Jared and Lauria Racing & Repair as Angels for me, and I am so grateful for ALL they have done for me and my car!
