I was looking for replacement bolts for my Ford Ranger transmission pan. After trying to locate…read moreeven Ford Dealer could not come up with correct bolts. Ford not only could not find any they gave me the wrong bolt spec. After trying to locate the correct parts with no success contacted Transmission Shop for needed bolts that a previous user or shop rounded the heads. Transmission Shop said come in we have them for you. After getting the correct I was able to complete my DIY transmission service and correctly torque the good bolts. Thank You!

I bought a car that was too good to be true from an unscrupulous dealer. The car looked fantastic…read moreand I bought it knowing it had an issue, possibly with the transmission. I was ignorant that the transmission was a CVT and more expensive/rare than conventional. Chuck was very sympathetic and gave me multiple options from fixing to replacing it with a new or rebuilt one. His communication was excellent and he gave me pricing and pros and cons of each option. I opted for the having him rebuild it and got lucky because my trans wasn't shredded and they were able to find and replace the bad bearing. Whew Fast forward two months and my wife's car broke down in a small town a couple hours away. I called Richfield Transmission and they were able to instruct me how to drive the car back with minimal damage. I'm bringing the car in this morning, RT has earned my trust. A word about the bad reviews: I own a highly rated small biz myself and have received a couple bad reviews from people who were never my customers and a couple who didn't listen to the advice I gave them. It's telling that Chuck has taken the time to write polite responses to those errant reviews.

Everyone I've dealt with there has a great attitude. Minus that guy.

We have been bringing our cars to Inline X for a number of years and the service is always amazing…read more This is a true family business and they always explain things in easily understandable terms. They would never suggest something that wasn't necessary and their prices are fantastic. They are up-front about what it will cost and will call to clear it with you before starting work. They even let you know if you have more time before you really have to worry. They have done everything from oil changes to a transmission for us and we have built a lot of trust with them. I wouldn't even think of going anywhere else. My highest recommendation!!!

Inline X Automotive is the real deal. The owners are hands on operators with one working the…read moreservice desk and another working in the repair bays. The place smells of quality. I decided to give Inline X a try after growing suspicious of the other Hopkins based service center I had been using. The other guys were nice enough but they charged me $95 for an oil and filter change explaining Ford out out a TSB requiring synthetic oil. Not true. So I searched Yelp and learned of Inline X Automotive's reputation. Inline X is serious about delivery great service. Phone calls are handled promptly and professionally. When walking in, I received a very positive greeting that made me feel like my business was truly appreciated. Even if a simple oil change. I have called an learned my date preference wasn't available but loved the reasons - one weekend a member of the crew was getting married and everyone wanted to go. The only other time was before a Holiday and the owner wanted his team to get off work on time. Every aspect of the customer experience seems thought out. Waiting area is nice but not overdone. Music is nice and upbeat but not too loud. The waiting space is clean. I even received a holiday card and I only visited Inline X three times. When bringing in my car for more major issues, Nhia explained his findings in lay person terms and provided me options. There was no hint of disappointment or degradation of service when I selected the low or mid tier repair option. I don't like coughing up dollars for auto repaired any more than the next guy. However, Inline X is the type of business I like to support knowing I receive value for the dollars I spend and I am supporting an independent business owner who knows how to deliver service and run a business. I highly recommend Inline X Automotive no matter the nature of the problem or the year make and model of car.

Parts were 160$ but somehow with labor it's over 500$ to replace spark plugs. Shouldn't take more than an hour labor to complete. Called a dealership and was quoted at less than half the cost of this scam shop. Do not come here. You will get overcharged and talked down to like you don't know anything.

In the month that…read morethey had the vehicle they were able to diagnose the issue but the cost was exorbitant for the repairs required. I paid $3872, most of the cost was for labor because they did not quite know what they were doing, for repairs that should have cost $2,500. So that being said, if you value your time, they had it for a month and your wallet, they really pad the bill, $247 for shop supplies, I would recommend taking your vehicle somewhere else.

Stopped in Monday for an oil change. I had received a city welcome packet of Welcome to the…read moreNeighborhood coupons, and they had provided a free oil change. It's just a small lobby w three chairs but it's all windows/doors so lots of light & see what's going on outside. Ciara is at the desk....and... what a peach is she!!! We talked my entire visit, sharing trauma stories...about cars, it made the time fly by. When I brought in my truck I asked that they check for a leak as someone said there was spots after I left. Much to my disappointment I was parked outside in WI in January during that freezing cold snap.... it cracked my oil filter housing... to the repair tune of $1400!!! She said in the roughly 11 weeks since it happened I'd lost 1.5 quarts of oil. So basically, nothing I want to delay getting fixed!! When you call, you have to leave a message and be called back. The call back isn't a delayed response though. Thanks, no thanks (ha) Coon Rapids Service for the thorough and quick service. Ciara for the delightful service and conversation!

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice...The level of professionalism is second to none. They aren't cheap, no business that is worth their salt ever is, but they are honest and thorough, the quality of the work is top notch, and the level of knowledge about pretty much any automobile issue that Ciara displays is just astonishing. And yes, Ciara really is just about the nicest person I know, and that matters. Customer service is getting to be a lost art but CR Service has it down pat, and that also matters. Loaners, rides home in the dead of winter (I live close), it's all there. Honesty in the car repair biz is hit and miss, and this is a business that is a hit. Highly recommended.

I dropped my car off for a front end alignment, which they charge $159.95 for. Fair enough…read more I was told that during their pre-alignment inspection they discovered that the passenger side outer tie rod end was worn and needed to be replaced in order for the alignment to be done. This makes sense, so I said ok go ahead and do it. I was then told that with the alignment and tie rod end replacement, the total cost would now be $565.04! I decided to do it because my car was already there in the shop and it needed to be done, however this price is insane for the work that was done. They charged me $98.92 for the tie rod end, which is a very large markup. They charge $239.81 PER HOUR for labor, which is completely crazy. I was charged for an hour of labor, when I know for a fact that changing out one single tie rod end should only take a decent mechanic 15-20 minutes. It is ridiculously easy. Finally, they charged me $57.83 for "RO Fees" which include recycling, environmental, shop supplies and hazardous waste disposal. This makes no sense to me because I had no fluids changed that needed disposal, and the only shop supplies they would have needed for a tie rod end and an alignment would be paper towels, maybe a dab of anti-seize, maybe a pair of nitrile gloves. Nearly $60 is straight up robbery for the job they did for me. Yes, they are friendly. Yes, I think the work they do is fine. What they charge, however, is not reasonable and I think they are taking advantage of the many people who need their car fixed and don't know a whole lot about mechanical work. This is why I try to do most of my own repairs, but some things (like alignments) a guy just can't do in his driveway.
