I called Bandy's in frustration when my car wouldn't start - again. A few weeks ago, I had to get it towed out of a downtown parking garage to the dealership, which is the only place that's worked on it in the last 5 years. They ran diagnostics but couldn't offer an explanation - the car started just fine for them. But it kept happening, and when I called to see if they could revisit the tests, I was blown off. I took it to Bandy's, where they worked me in immediately, ran all the diagnostics and offered me a possible solution I don't think the dealership even looked for. They ordered the part we needed and had it ready the next morning and had it replaced within an hour. It's a no-frills kind of place, but the employees were very kind, helpful and willing to walk me through all possible solutions. read more

Professional, fast, honest! Could've sold me some that I didnt need because I went for an alignment and brakes but once they fixed an underlying problem with the front end, I didn't need an alignment anymore! Seriously thank you read more

Walked in felt welcome right a way!! Told them what was going on. Got an estimate which was way cheaper than what I thought and then they give me options. I have found a auto repair place. Thank Bandy's read more

I have not actually used Bandys Auto Service, but my daughter has. As she is in her first year of college an hour and a half from home, she wasn't sure where to take her car for a minor repair earlier in the school year. A friend recommended Bandys and they fixed her car quickly and (relatively) inexpensively. Then, a few weekends ago, my daughter was involved in a minor accident, sustaining damage to her tires and headlight. She had her car towed to Bandys to be repaired. When she called on Monday morning, they were very kind and sympathetic to her situation and let her know they would take a look and call her back with an estimate. They did so within hours. And although any car repair nowadays is expensive, their estimate was fair. With a small deposit on the needed parts, they got right to work and she had her car back within days. It is comforting to know that my daughter has a reliable place to take her car if she should ever need anything else done to it, but what's even more comforting is that they were honest in their estimate/work on the car of a struggling college student and their kindness to her in such a stressful situation has certainly earned great appreciation from this mom. Thank you Bandy's! read more

I came here around September of 2010 after getting a $1000+ quote from a different service center to replace my radiator. I decided I also needed to get my timing belt replaced since it had been squealing like a stuck pig. I called these people up and asked how much they could do both repairs for. They asked me what kind of car I had and came up with 750. They seemed like laid back no nonsense people and the price was right so I gave it a shot. I got my car back very quickly (within the next few days, same week). They did not go over the quote or happen to come across any extra "things that need fixing." No upselling was done. I can confirm I have a new radiator and belt, so no shady business there. Also, in my non-professional view, the quality of the work looks very good, and I have driven it for almost a year now without so much as a squeak or leak. Great job guys. Four stars only because I have only seen them once. (which for a mechanic, just like a doctor or police officer, is a good thing). Yelpers can message me if they want to know the place I DID NOT go to. read more

Avoid this place. My Dodge Journey overheated. I towed it to Bandys. They called me saying it was the heating coil assembly. Charged $420 to replace it. Once I picked my car up, drove less than 10 miles and it was still overheating. I had it towed to another shop that night and it was actually the thermostat sticking. An $8 part. I had the thermostat replaced and now my car is fine. They clearly did not test drive my car after "repairing" it. read more

Took my van to Bandy's at 3501 Madison in Indianapolis In. I was given a quote of 669.00 to replace a muffler. I left it there over the weekend because I was told it was not safe to drive. I stopped by Ralph's muffler down the street and decided to take it there, it was 200.00 cheaper and when I got back to pick up my other car they had a sticker on it to be towed! read more

By far an awesome experience. The staff there was extremely helpful and polite. Once the tech looked at my vehicle he explained in easy to understand details on why my service engine soon light was on. I had the repairs for at an easy pocket cost and the truck has been light free since. Thanks you Bandys read more

This is not a place i would service my car anytime. Had a popped spark plug and they did not fix it right. It popped again before leaving the facility. I did some research and bot the tools and parts and fixed it myself and showed the mechanic i was able to by myself. Visited them 3 times explaining what happened and they agreed to return me partially after debate with a condition to return the parts they have put in. The next day took the damaged parts and started a brand new settlement. I realized they are not going to honor what they have agreed the day before and asked them to return the parts. The mechanic said you have two options and i did not want to explore any further negotiations and as soon as i ask him to return the parts he said he will call police. I felt offended for being honestly explaining the case to them and got out of the facility. read more
