Once when I had a flat tire, I took my van into the shop, they got me a new tire, and suggested where I could get it done cheaper because they said they had to order the tire versus other places that wouldn't need to charge me for ordering the tire. I thought that was so kind and considerate of them to value saving me money like that. I legit won't take my car or any future cars anywhere else other than here.

I can't recommend Auto Service With Steve enough! After a tow truck driver gave my CRV a bad jump…read morestart, it went completely haywire. I was in an absolute panic and thought it had fried the entire electrical system. I'd never even seen most of the lights on the dash that were lit up, and it was driving horribly. I took it to Steve, and found him to be incredibly knowledgeable, honest and a master of his craft. He diagnosed the problem, explained everything clearly and didn't push any unnecessary repairs. If you are looking for an honest, reliable mechanic at a fair price in the Glenview area, Steve is your guy!

My Jaguar F-Type just came out of warranty, so I looked for a reputable independent shop to handle…read moreroutine yearly maintenance. I found Auto Service with Steve online, and their website specifically lists "Jaguar F-Type" as one of the models they service. I called, spoke directly with Steve, explained exactly what I needed (oil change, brake fluid check, maintenance reminder reset, etc.), and he confirmed they could handle it with no problem. He even said he had the tools to reset the maintenance reminder. We scheduled for Friday. I called off work to make this appointment and drove over early. When I arrived, Steve looked confused and said he couldn't work on my car because it was "too low." My car is completely stock, no modifications, no lowered suspension. He suddenly changed his story. So not only did I waste my time and lose a day of work, but his website explicitly claims they service F-Types. If a shop is going to advertise that they handle specific models, they should be prepared to do so or at least be upfront about limitations before confirming an appointment. Extremely disappointed. Misleading advertising and poor communication. I wouldn't trust this place for anything Jaguar-related.

If you're looking for a mechanic you can actually trust, stop searching and go straight to Golf…read moreCrawford Auto Service. Chris and his team are hands-down the best in the business. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this isn't your typical auto shop. They take the time to explain everything clearly, tell you what actually needs to be done (and what doesn't), and treat you like a person--not just another ticket. What really sets them apart is their honesty and consistency. You never feel upsold, pressured, or in the dark. Just straightforward, high-quality work at fair prices--every single time. And somehow, they always find a way to come through when you need them most, even when they're busy. They've been a trusted name in the Evanston area for decades, and it shows in the way they operate and the loyalty they've built with customers. Chris runs an incredible shop, and his team reflects that standard across the board--professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely good people. It's rare to find a place like this. Once you go to Crawford Golf Auto, you won't go anywhere else.

Our first time there and we went based on other peoples rave reviews. He took it on a test drive and thoroughly checked pads, etc. He told us we should do nothing right now - we have at least 6000 miles left. Given the way we drive that's another year. It's heartening to know there are still honest mechanics and he's a really nice guy besides. We had him change our oil!
