Ken is so honest. His shop is really one in a million. I trust him and have been going here for years.

Two years ago I took my vehicle here because the "check engine" light was on. Took it there because they used to do emissions testing and I was confident they could take care of the problem. I had to return 2 times because the light kept coming on. After spending $1700.00, I quickly took it to get tested. Two weeks later the light came back. Fast forward to today, time to get it tested again. I went to another shop. Current shop owner asked if I had a shade tree mechanic or took it to a shop last time. I explained the situation and was informed it would be $2200 because the work done previously had to be corrected. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere. read more

Very professional and fast service. Was told my service would take 2-3 days. Received a call 2 hours later saying my vehicle was ready.

I didn't have anything done here, just called to get some information about inspection requirements since I'm new Illinois resident. This was probably THE MOST PLEASANT phone exchange I've had with any service shop anywhere, anytime, for any reason. Both folks I talked to were unbelievably pleasant and helpful! Based on this experience alone I'll be going to them when I need service. Outstanding! read more

It's been some time now that I had my car in for repairs, and now my step daughter has an issue with her heater and I went to look up Edwardsville Auto again and to my shock and surprise there were very few reviews and some of them were rather negative. (gasp) As I'm sure people are more inclined to review when they are unhappy, I thought I should "even things out" by letting people know what a positive experience I had. My rear differential seal had somehow burst and the dealership I went to for repairs did not fix the problem correctly, but charged me about $1,000. I needed a 2nd opinion and chose to go to Edwardsville Auto as they had previously done an emissions inspection for me. I was very pleasantly surprised that they were able to fix the problem correctly, they updated me on my cars availability and even followed up with a nice card and coupon after I had picked up my vehicle. Hoping to have the same experience as we go along and our cars continue to age. read more

Helpful and easy to work with. These are good people. I've had them do repair work after a wreck, and fix minor issues with AC. They're consistently one of the lowest costs and the work is always good. read more

Super friendly people. Clear, open explanations of work to be performed. Great work without complications. And good prices. What more could you want from a mechanic? I've had E-Ville Auto perform everything from basic checks to intermediate service and maintenance on three of our vehicles over the course of the past 3-4 years, and each and every time I've come away feeling comfortable and confident that we got a fair deal, an honest day's work, and most importantly, FIXES without having to go back for additional repairs and costs. They do a great job and do it right the FIRST time so you don't have to go back again for the same issue.....and I'll keep going back for other services as long as they continue to perform as professionally as they've always done so far. Great place! read more

I was so happy with this shop after my first visit. They identified and fixed the mystery noise I was hearing, but can't any shop do this? I had to come back a second time because the caliper they replaced at that first visit was a bad one and drained all my brake fluid. Shame on me for giving them a third chance after that for a similar problem, which actually was not resolved when the car was returned to me. I recently had to have my car looked at again and something was nagging at me about this shop, so I went elsewhere. Only to find out there were a few things (brakes, spark plugs) that had been "fixed" but now needed repair again (still? Because of their work? hard to say.) I will not be going back. Beware. read more

The staff here was amazing. They are very personable, knowledgeable, and all around friendly. If you are having car troubles, or just need to get an emissions test, this is the place to go! read more

I love my cars and would only trust their care in the best hands - and those belong to Edwardsville Auto. From routine oil changes to complex issues (suspensions, major repairs), it's nice to know that I can trust Ken and the staff for top quality work. We have taken all of our auto maintenance needs to Edwardsville Auto for many years, and have never been disappointed. read more

After an extremely disappointing experience with Dobb's, my husband and I took his '07 Ford Fusion to Edwardsville Auto for new springs and struts. The employees are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Their prices are very reasonable and they are fast too. I've now taken all 3 of our cars there for service and have been very pleased. read more

Based on many reviews, and much research I decided on edwardsville auto for a high-mileage, complete car inspection. From the very first phone call, I realized that I had made the right decision. It was quite apparent their automotive knowledge was bar none. They were thorough in their explanation, patient of my many questions, and could not have been more friendly. They even have a loaner car available upon request which for me was a godsend. The prices were fair, and the quality was superior. I never did meet Zip in person (though talked with him twice on the phone), and yet, I felt like I was talking to a close friend. Ken (who I did meet) was wonderful as well. Oh, and a few days after I picked up my car I got a phone call from Bill (the owner) asking me how my experience was. Really? I mean, what company in this day and age does such a thing? It was wonderful. Car runs great! Could not be more happy. If you're looking for an honest mechanic, look no further than edwardsville auto. I will definitely be returning for all future automotive needs. read more

I had a really bad experience. They give me an estimate for which I agreed because my car would not start, and it turned out that was a big overcharged. Then, it seemed they were very unfamiliar with my German car, and they fixed one thing and broke two others. It was a terrible experience to communicate with them back and fourth. Overall, I believe they overcharged me and their service was with complications. I took the car to another mechanic who explained to me what they had done wrong, and fixed the problem. read more

Charged me $86 for a AC repair estimate. Estimate was $1200-1400. Took it right down the street and watched the guy do the same exact AC repair estimate in 2 minutes for free and quoted me $600-1000. Don't go here unless you have a few extra hundred dollars you'd like to waste. read more

I highly recommend Edwardsville Auto. My experience was top notch from drop off to pick up! Bill, Ken, and the entire staff is extremely knowledgeable and honest. They were very transparent when explaining what repair was needed, why it was important, and FOLLOWED UP to ensure that I was happy with the service! read more
