The people at Honest-1 Auto Care are top notch. They do quality work at a reasonable price. The only caveat is they are very popular so sometimes you have to wait a day or two to get all services completed. That usually includes ordering parts needed. The wait is always worth it for me! I always drive away knowing my vehicle is road worthy and safe again. read more

Very difficult to get in touch with your service advisor. The service manager called me back yesterday, apparently from his personal cell. When I was unable to get a hold of my service advisor this morning, I called back and Jeff blocked my number. read more

I believe they are the best value in the area. Their inspection they do with every visit is valuable when you drive an older vehicle like I do as things begin to leak and deteriorate. Their inspection sheet features images to go with their assessment, which provides proof for those who might be skeptical. Its not like the quick oil change places where you go in for an oil change and they come talk to you about everything from your air filter, tire rotation, engine flush, serpentine belt, and anything they have no record of at their location to even include changing the air freshener tree on your mirror "as per manufacturer recommendations..." or "to enhance the performance/engine life of your vehicle..." They take the time to do a fair and accurate assessment to see if other problems exist. You don't always want to hear what they have to say after their inspection (I drive an '05 so they had all kinds of legitimate findings...) but they are forthright and live up to their name. I was familiar with most of the problems they identified and would trust they wouldn't gouge someone not as savvy with mechanical knowledge. Good and courteous folks work here and who seem to enjoy what they do. While I live here, I will continue to utilize them for my vehicle's needs. I highly recommend them and would trust them enough to care for family and friends with as much time and attention to detail. read more

I came into Honest-1 for an appointment to change my spark plugs. From the start, the person that I was speaking to made it seem like he didn't want me there. He asked me if I was leaving the car because this would take hours to complete. Errrr, ok, any google search will let you know that on average it takes an hour to change spark plugs. It also will tell you that the average cost to change your spark plugs is $16-100 for parts and $40-150 for labor. This guy quoted $614.40 and that was with a $50 discount! My mind was blown. I told him that I was quoted by my mechanic in Chicago that it would cost around $100, and his response was that he didn't know what kind of cheap parts this mechanic was using. Well, you know what, dude? I don't know what kind of parts you use, but with that price you must be using some diamond encrusted Gucci plugs, or something. After leaving the shop, I called an actual honest mechanic in Clarksville and was quoted $140. I told them about the previous quote from Honest-1, and they were about as shocked as I was. They informed me that they were charging for things that were not needed for maintenance. Perhaps a change in your business's name is in order, because inflating the prices of parts and labor is generally not considered "honest". read more

Honest-1 Auto Care - Estimate to change spark plugs for maintenance. Car wasn't even looked at other than to see what kind of engine it was. - Auto Repair Near Me - Clarksville, Tennessee

Second time leaving a review. Wonderful people. They fixed my car for a fair price and keep you informed of the whole process. Will be coming back. read more

My DIL and I took my sons jeep to them to get an oil leak fixed while he was overseas. They did an honest job and found a few other things that we were concerned about as well. Also, they let us know that one or two other things that we were concerned about were just fine and did not need fixing. When we got the jeep home, we found another issue. They brought it right back in and corrected the issue for us. read more

I ended up losing a car at this place and had a great experience during the process... Car had a leak. I called some local shops and Michael picked up the phone at H1. Nice guy. I took the car in and they diagnosed it within 1 business day. I had explained I did not need a rush on this (car is a 2002 beater neon) but I was happy with the turn-around time. Michael texted me a link to a report with how the car tested etc, car had failed the "block" test. Michael called me up, said the block (engine) was cracked and coolant was leaking from there, also burning oil, etc, to fix the crack would need to replace the engine. Well, my beater is dead, I did it, I burned to to the ground. Instead of trying to persuade me to replace the engine, Michael recommended I call a service that buys beater cars. He didn't have to help with this but it was awesome that he did. He offered to let my car sit on his lot until the process was complete. Awesome. I called the service, explained what was up with the car, they said they wouldn't buy it but would accept it as a donation. I decided to donate the car for auction to support St Judes Children's. Went back to the shop to settle the paperwork, diagnostic fee was about 100$, that's alright, they did a good job and told me (not entirely unschooled in auto repair) something I didn't know about my car. Ok cool. I decided since I was out a car and 100$, at least I could pull my fancy tuner wheels and good tires off the car to recoup my losses. I tried to remove the wheels but no longer had the right socket for the lugs. Michael went out of his way to find me the right socket out of his own shop, and one of his guys loaned me a 1/2 socket wrench. Guys showed some trust in this current state of things, and that is awesome and speaks volumes. I got my wheels and put on some old steelies I had, dropped off the title, and left. A few days later Michael was the point man for the car to get picked up by the service. He didn't have to do any of this, and their shop certainly did not make any extra $ on the assistance they gave me, but they earned my future business and respect as well. They also gave me a bag of animal crackers, which were delicious. Wheels for sale at the Wheel Shop on Wilma Rudolph. 300 OBO, probably more than the neon will go for. read more

Cheap oil change if you get a good coupon in the mail are ok. Let my wife take her fancy little car there because I just dont feel like messing with it. On my other cars I have always been able to do a good oil change in 8-10 minutes, so I know of which I speak. But after seeing that quote on paper to charge $610.00 to swap 4 little spark plugs I would not let wife trust them for anything. I do the plug swap on any 4 cylinder engine in 10 minutes time at the billing rate of $100.00 per hour, ($10.00 for 10 minutes) and for $1.99 for each spark plug. So this grand total runs $10.00 for labor and $8.00 for parts. Wow an $18.00 job at cost? For a $610.00 quote. They must have thought this man was really stupid. There has not been any need for a "Tune up" on any car built after 1994. Plus trying to charge him for fuel injection service on a car that I guaran-darned-tee has a carberator and doesn't have any fuel injectors at all. I think the year was 1994 when ODBII was introduced as a computerized control system. It's really hard to believe that they would mix modern computer controled fuel injection services charges with an ancient carberator system with a non computerized rotary spark disributor? Didn't they replace distributor spark with easy coil spark packs in 1994 when ODBII came out? It's really hard to believe that you would quote for expensive fuel injection service on a car that most likely has no fuel injectors at all? Didn't those cars use carberators without any computer control at all before 1994 with ODBII? There is no such thing as a "Tune Up" on any modern computerized car made after ODBII in 1994 where computers do all the "Tune Work" automaticlly? I owned and sold an old 1994 Toyota Camry and that thing never had any carberator instead of comuterize coils. Maybe Jay Leno knows of something like an old British Rolls-Royce engine that could do this. I really have no idea? read more

First time customer here. I emailed the folks here about a quote to replace a serpentine belt (parts + labor.) They promptly responded within 2 hours and quoted an estimate. Afterwards, they offered to look at it ASAP and offered alternative times. I had the belt replaced today for a decent cost of ~128 for a 2009 Honda Civic LX. The staff are courteous, professional, friendly, and respectful when it comes to your car. They treat it like their own. The repair last about 2 hours. I left happy and would gladly come back here for another repair. Thank you! P.S. Yes, they do honor military discounts. read more

So today September 10 I decided to take the boys for a drive to Cross Creeks in Dover from Clarksville. We made several stops along the way. Then all of a sudden at one stop my truck wouldn't start again. Luckily there was 3 gentleman fishing at this spot. They stopped what they where doing and immediately checked my truck over, they even crawled underneath to check the starter....it was the starter. They took about 2 hours of there time to ran and grab tools while I waited for the starter to be brought to me. I believe his name was Mike and he works for Honest 1 on Wilma Rudolph Blvd in Clarksville. If it wasn't for them I would have had to leave my truck in the woods an hour from home. Thank you Mike, your son and your friend. Several people drove by and seen my hood up and didn't even ask if I needed help. But these guys went above and beyond and I appreciate them so much. Today Honest 1 has gained a new customer. Thank you!!! read more

They were awesome! I was headed back home to Illinois from Alabama when the Engine reduce power light popped up. Thought it could be a battery issue after googling the issue. Drove to the local auto part store and of course they said that was the issue. Changed the battery started back down the road...1st stop light car died. Googled auto repair and Honest 1 came up...able to start the car and make it there. Seemed that wasn't the issue. Needing 2 parts to repair. They had one. Didn't think they could get another one before the morning. Told them I was passing thru headed to IL. They got on the phone and was able to get the part and fix the issue! They stayed with it until it was repaired! I was able to get back home that night!!! Whether you are local or passing thru... go to these guys!!! Good Christian folks!!! Thanks guys!!! read more

Horrible. They sent a coupon for a $29 oil change and ended up costing my wife $40. Usual bait and switch tactic. "Oh the oil filter and labor cost extra!" Complete BS. This is the same place that I asked to look at my brakes for replacement and they said, "We'll look at them for $25 (or similar charge), BUT DONT WORRY, if you replace them with us we'll put that towards the replacement." So then i asked what the replacement cost would be (so i could price compare) and they refused to quote me!! I've never been turned down for a quote from an auto body shop before. This place markets itself at "honest" but don't be fooled. This place is a complete rip off. Go to C&S Auto repair which is basically across the street. They are the REAL honest place to go. HONEST-1 YOU ARE AWFUL AND SHOULD BE ASHAMED. read more

Came from out of town and noticed a vibration in my steering and vehicle. They balanced my tires for cheap. Great business!

This is my go to place for oil changes and routine maintenance and my vehicle. Don't listen to the 1 star comments. They're from whiney people who expect to get stuff done for free. Here is my advice to them: 1. There is a markup on all auto parts anywhere you go. It's unheard of that a place doesn't mark up their parts. If you don't want to pay it, buy the parts yourself and give them to the mechanic. Otherwise, don't cry about it. 2. Estimates are just that, Estimates. Sometimes you just don't know the full story until you take something apart and get a good look at it. One time the estimate was more, another time it was less. That's how estimates work, so get over it. 3. Your 29.99 oil change coupon probably won't cost you 29.99. Maybe it would back in 1990, but oil has changed a lot since, and better oil just cost more. Accept it. If you take care of your vehicle, it will take care of you. 4. If you could have saved $$ by taking it someplace else or doing it yourself, than why didn't you do that in the first place? Sure, there are plenty of grease monkeys in this town. But the don't back up there work like this place does. I went to one and you got to see the Rub Goldberg job they did on my exhaust. That's my rant for today. read more

I went there to get a wheel alignment I got a discount coupon from discount tires. Staff was friendly and call me a soon as my vehicle was done unfortunately I could not pick it up right away and they were happy to hold onto it until I could get to my vehicle later that evening. read more

Very courteous and friendly staff, inviting and comfortable waiting area, complimentary refreshments, free wifi, kids' play area are the great highlights of this store. Received a coupon in the mail, and I just happened to be needing an oil change, so I tried this place out encouraged by some very positive Yelp reviews. I was not disappointed. It's always a challenge to find a reliable auto service shop in the community you just moved in. I'm so glad that I found this place. I'll be coming back here for my future auto care needs. read more

I can't say enough good about this place. I trust them completely with my car. I love that they do a full inspection with your vehicle when you get a oil change so that you can be ahead of any needed repairs. They are super friendly, down to earth, and caring people. The waiting area is comfortable, they have drinks and snacks available. There is also a play area for kids, that my son loved. I recommend everyone I know to this place consistently. read more

I brought my truck into Honest Auto repair, for front brakes After inspection,I need front brakes, rosters, brake fluid change ( they didn't know I already had the brakes looked at by my cousin mechanic) He said I need brakes, Rogers could be saved and brake fluid looks better than " his own" "Honest" far from it, watch out for this company Get a second opinion, or better yet stay away Repair $236 - Honest Auto $560 read more

Took my truck into honest 1 for it to sit there for a week and them claim to have done a complete diagnostic and full check on the vehicle to get it returned with check engine light still on and screeching coming from my engine. When asked why it wasn't fixed they said," idk, we didn't find a problem." After calling me and saying the truck was fixed and good to go. Will not be bringing any of my vehicles back to a businesses that doesn't have the decency to at least admit when they're wrong. read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS ESTABLISHMENT! No customer service whatsoever! I made sure I called them a week ahead to get some information about their service. I spoke to Matt who informed me that they didn't do appointments for wheel alignments. So, I asked what would be the latest time I can bring my vehicle in. He told me that as long as I brought the vehicle in between 3-4pm, M-F, they can get it done. Fast forward to Monday, I brought my vehicle in at 3:30pm and was told that they couldn't do it because there was a car in front of me and to come back the next day. Come back the next day with the possibility of getting turned away again since they don't do appointments??! I'm a little bit perturbed at this point because I just took time off of work and rearranged my schedule to get this done. Only to be told they couldn't do it because of 1 car. Mind you, they close at 6pm. He didn't even check in the back to see if it would be possible. He didn't even try to call his boss. I asked him if it even made sense for him to tell people on the phone that as long as they can come in by 4pm, they can get assistance because it isn't true. I made it before 4pm and was still turned away. Moral of the story is, DO NOT GO TO HONEST ONE FOR ANYTHING TO DO WITH YOUR CAR! If this is how they treat their customers, I'll take my business elsewhere! Their employees need to learn customer service, specifically Matt and he needs to stop telling the lie to come before 4pm. Either have appointments or do it during a specific time of the day. read more

I've taken my vehicle here twice to be serviced. I misunderstood the gentlemen on the phone and was quoted $679.00 for what I thought was the oil pressure sending unit and a vent valve solenoid. Boy was I wrong. They only fixed the pressure sending unit which would have cost $180-250 anywhere else. They recommended an oil and air filter change but didn't say anything about the solenoid, or tie rod ends that may also be bad. I also left with check engine codes on the dash. Overall this place is 3x as expensive as Anywhere else in Clarksville, I won't be going back. In the future I'll get a written estimate before I ever get car work done and more than likely I'll just do it myself read more

Honest is not how I'd describe them. I've never once been or an auto care that charges extra for an oil change because your car has high mileage. They also never asked what kind of oil I wanted and did everything to my car before telling me how much it costs. Never going here for anything again. Was a customer, despite what owners say. I go by a different name. I also just moved to TN, so surprisingly my first thought wasn't "let me go change my state on Yelp." read more

When I showed them proof of their error, they were honest enough to own up to it & treated me with respect. It'll probably be better to speak with them face to face & ask them to give you an estimate on paper, so you won't have to go back & forth trying to prove yourself. It wasn't a bad experience, because it's normal to make human errors. I was satisfied with their work & I feel confident in giving them my business in the future. read more

Will was awesome! Will took the time to explain my car problems and the service was done in a timely fashion.

For the full review go to Clarksville Chat FB page. To bring others up to speed on everything that transpired, I took a 2007 Lexus GS 350 to them a couple of weeks ago for diagnosis on a couple of issues. I paid the $150, plus tax, diagnosis fee (this was known upfront and I have no problem with the fee) and was given an estimate of repairs totaling nearly $4000. The estimate was emailed to me before I picked the vehicle back up and I was immediately suspicious because of the number of hours of labor involved and a couple of the repairs diagnosed. So, I have family in the business and had them look at the estimate. They couldn't figure out how they got to around 19 hours of labor. I went and paid the diagnosis fee and asked Mike if he'd put the vehicle back up on the rack and let me hear, and see, if there was play in the 2 rear hubs that he claimed needed replacing. He immediately balked and said there really wasn't any play in the hubs but just noise coming from them that let them know they were bad. I was suspicious because both wheel bearings (hub assemblies) don't normally go bad at the same time or near the same time. It's typically only 1 that goes bad and needs replacement. I know that normally a technician is the one that does the diagnosis and the manager writes the estimate based on the technicians diagnosis. I asked Mike, since he was adamant I didn't need to look at the vehicle, if he did the diagnosis himself and he said that he did. So, he said he diagnosed and wrote the estimate. I doubted this was true but knew, at this point, that I wouldn't be allowing them to repair the vehicle so I didn't press the issue. I then asked Mike to step outside with me and he did so. I told him I was giving him one opportunity to tell the truth about the number of hours that he claimed the repairs would take. He said it's just what the system said it took. I asked him what system they used and he said Mitchell Pro, which is exactly the same system my family uses. I informed him of this and he still stuck to his story. I then confronted him about one of the other services recommended in the estimate, a coolant system flush. One of the repairs that he said needed to be made, was a whole new radiator. If you're replacing the radiator you are losing most of the coolant, anyway, and definitely wouldn't need a coolant flush. When confronted with this fact, he immediately said that was his mistake and it shouldn't be on there. I gave him one more chance to come clean about the hours and told him if he just told the truth I'd leave and he'd never hear from me again. If not, I'd review the business on every site available. He stuck to his story and I left. I gave an initial review, that night, on this site and on Honest-1's website. There were several people who commented and I promised a final review once I had the vehicle repaired and confirmed some of my other suspicions about only one wheel bearing being bad as well as one of the other services that were recommended. Mike claimed, on the estimate, that there was a little metal in the rear differential, but he didn't think it was so bad that it needed repairing. He recommended just changing the differential fluid. I suspected he was adding this because it was easy money since they'd already be replacing both hubs and rear brakes. I'd know the whole truth once it was repaired by someone else. After the initial review I recieved an email from Mike , essentially trying to shame me for putting 8 HONEST employees in jeopardy by posting the review. I responded that he'd done that himself with, what I felt, was a dishonest estimate and over billing for hours of labor required for the job. I also recieved a message from the owner , Tucker, that he'd like to talk to me, and make things right. I emailed Tucker back and told him I wouldn't post any other reviews until I'd had the vehicle repaired and I'd spoken with him Review continued on Clarksville Chat FB page.

I've been taking my cars here for a year now. So far, they've been great about providing any services as requested, including repair of a transmission leak & 2 oil leaks in an older BMW. There was one issue in getting parts for the BMW (the issue was more so with the BMW dealership sending the parts on time), but the staff at Honest One stayed on top of things & even ended up driving out of town/state to pick up parts after being let down by the Nashville BMW not sending parts on time. They've never recommended unnecessary or excessive services and they've always been polite and compassionate even when I've been discouraged about making major car care decisions. read more

Went in to get a steering issue fixed and the power steering pump leak fixed. They found other issues also which is fine. They sent pictures of where the mechanic said the leak was coming from. They said it was the rack in pinion mind you the rack and pinion is right below the pump. The repair just for that over 1500. They called me to tell me it was ready. I went to pick it up and guess what it was still leaking on the pavement. I went it no so happy I said thought you fixed the leak. He said we did ,I said then what's that all under my car. He told me they'd look back into and call me tomorrow mind you I live over an hour away so it was a wasted trip. They called that evening the leak was just a rubber seal in the pump the whole time that cost a few cents. So they charged me over 1500 for something that didn't need to be fixed. Nothing honest about that one bit. I will never use them again. Stay away they have incompetent mechanics that play guessing games. read more
