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!

When I didn't receive the promised quote, I called late the next day and was told that I would get it the following day or day after.

Have been taking our vehicles to Clavey's for years and will continue to do so. Dwayne (and Dan…read moreand the rest of the Clavey crew) have always been very personable, professional, knowledgeable and honest. Their inspections are very thorough. They will tell you what needs to be done (from a safety standpoint) to what could be done (fixing minor things that don't impact the daily operation of the vehicle). There are no upsells; no pressure to do things that don't really need to be done; etc. I trust them completely with our cars. Now my son and his girlfriend take their cars to Clavey. :-) I highly recommend them.
