I went with him…read moreto pick up his truck and I was extremely impressed by the shop, the people in the office area and their clear and open explanation of everything - including when I had questions. They were very friendly and my son is very happy with the work done. Knowing how expensive even minor work and parts can be, I was glad to see the bill wasn't crazy high. I don't have a diesel now, but I'd absolutely recommend them.

Not to mention the previous owner had to take the truck back to them multiple times because they couldn't get it right. Did all that work and they take 0 pride in what they do/stand for and want to charge absurd amounts of money to look into it. Worst shop this side of the Mississippi. Would not recommend to a single soul. Absolutely terrible.

Note: Originally a google review that I am sharing in other places because they want to remove my…read morereview. Update: I received a phone call about this review and the owner explained to me that it's very unfair that I am able to leave a review about how their estimate came in significantly higher than everyone else and that he would try to remove this review. The explanation for the markups and excessive parts-cannon behavior was that I had a Chevrolet vehicle and the quote was over the phone with someone other than the main phone guy. An engine job on this vehicle is approximately 18-22 hours of work as per industry standards, and at their stated hourly rate (~$125/hr) they priced the job with 33.3 hours of labor, which is overly liberal. The engine itself was marked up more than any of the other quotes, drastically so. There were also charges for services that one would assume would be included, such as preliminary diagnostics and ECM tuning following work. It was explained to me that they should have turned me away on the phone instead of providing me a quote without seeing the vehicle, which every single other shop was able to do in a reasonable manner. I have stated nothing fallacious or libelous in my review, but the owner was clearly upset that I was "badmouthing" and chose to "hurt their business" despite not going with them, apparently you are only able to share pricing information with the public after you pay way too much for service. I attempted to end things cordially but it didn't seem as though this was mutual. As a note, I have not paid them a single cent and am only reviewing: A: Their ability to provide a quote for my vehicle as all 9 other shops have. B: Their ability to receive criticism. I rate them a 1/5 stars on both accounts. I hope I do not have any contact with this business in the future. ________ Ran quotes for engine replacement at a total of 10 shops including a dealership. Advanced Car Care Center came in drastically higher than all the other independent shops, 40% more than the second highest quote, 78% higher than the lowest quote. They came in costing MORE THAN THE DEALERSHIP! I would recommend picking almost any other shop as the data is showing that their quotes are so bad that I felt it would be irresponsible for me not to share this information. Caveat emptor.

If I could give Budget Radiator and Automotive 10 stars, I absolutely would!…read more We were in Springfield from St. Charles for my daughter's MCDA Honors Choir workshops and concert when our 2015 Honda Odyssey suddenly started flashing warning lights on the highway--FCW, LDW, a flashing Drive indicator, and the check engine light. We were only about 7 miles out from our hotel, but we were worried we might be looking at a transmission replacement as it seemed like the transmission went "limp" and wouldn't change gears while driving! The team at Budget Radiator and Automotive got us in quickly, took the time to thoroughly diagnose the problem, and didn't jump to conclusions or try to sell us unnecessary repairs. They found that the alternator had failed, but they didn't stop there. During the repair they discovered the serpentine belt and tensioner were also failing because the belt kept slipping off. They explained everything clearly, showed us what was happening, and made sure the repair was done correctly. After replacing the alternator, serpentine belt, and tensioner, they checked the transmission fluid at my request, (which looked great), then test drove the van for about 20 miles to make sure everything was working properly before calling us. That's the kind of attention to detail and professionalism every customer hopes for. The van now runs beautifully, all of the warning lights are gone, and we have complete confidence driving it home. When you're traveling and your vehicle breaks down hundreds of miles from home, you're putting a lot of trust in a repair shop you've never met. Budget Radiator and Automotive earned that trust from the moment we walked in. They were honest, knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely cared about getting us safely back on the road--not just fixing a car. Thank you for turning a stressful situation into such a positive experience. If we're ever in Springfield and need automotive service again, this will be our first call. I highly recommend Budget Radiator and Automotive to anyone looking for a shop they can trust.
