    The Cons ( still 5 ) - class B Rd. to access or gravel Road…read moreto access. less than a mile. - very minimal cell phone service. I had one bar the whole time. I was still able to watch YouTube on my Verizon iphone My review I was looking for a place to do a very simple Service on my SUV. Tire rotation, and balancing. Out of the four garages, I called to get pricing for their prices was the lowest it wasn't by a large amount. enough for me to go to a place I've never been. I use the most current and up-to-date version of Google and Apple maps. it sent me down a non-maintained dirt road 112th PL. A few miles up the second turn for 112th PL. I entered on the dirt road and left on the gravel road. They both work. I reported the issue to Apple and Google so they might've fixed it. i've never been on that side of Knoxville going to the garage kind of confused me because of the roads it sent me down. I pulled up to a house that has a machine shed right next to it that is labeled ASF repair. It it feels like pulling up to a friend of a friend's house to get worked on or just a small town mechanic shop. The environment feels just like that going to a small town mechanic shop a great customer service and honest pricing like every mechanic shop. They suggest what you should get fixed and buy for your car but the way they do. It seems very honest and not trying to up charge. although it's my first experience, it was a good one I would not hesitate to suggest ASF to anyone

    Great place to get your vehicle serviced. They diagnosed my vehicles problem and called and told me…read moremy options to fix it, no surprises just straight forward service. I would recommend ASF repair.

    Valley West Corner Store - A little bling added to our waiting area.  We love the retro look and hope our customers do too!

    I've got to get this place above one measly star! We lived in West Des Moines for a couple years…read moreprior to moving back to Des Moines and frequented this place, most often for gas or coffee. The same guy was always behind the convenience store counter and we would go in so often that he would remember us and what we wanted (not sure if he's still there, also not sure what his name was). Always super friendly. TODAY however, we had to go in for the dreaded car repair. My husband had a mishap with the curb (of all things) and essentially knocked his right front tire completely out of alignment and nearly snapped the control bar, requiring a replacement of said parts along with a tire alignment. This all happened fairly close to the body shop so it was the closest place to get to without further driving/ruining his car. They got us in and out in just under two hours and the car drives like new again. Sh*t happens and it's awesome to have a place like this that actually cares about you, your well-being and the well-being of your vehicle. The mechanics explained everything very thoroughly [though we're both still car-mechanics-illiterate :) ] and made sure we knew what the problem was, what needed to be done to fix it and what the costs were going to be. They even had to order a part and they were still done in 2 hours! For what started out as a fairly terrible experience these guys made it as painless as dropping money on your self-inflicted car wounds can be. THANK YOU! Will return.

    Chuck - you have the GALL to accuse me of being difficult & lying. HA! You are the quite prolific…read moreliar in your rebuttal. No surprise after ripping my mom off!!! Don't ever confuse being furious with being difficult! First LIE; Shawn, Bill & Shawn Jr ALL proudly shared with me the new 30K Engine Analyzer they had & would be using to diagnose the reason for the SERVICE ENGINE SOON warning dash light coming on. Second LIE; Yes THAT SERVICE ENGINE SOON is the correct light that was on & the reason I brought my mother's car in. Shawn was aware THAT was the warning dash light that was lit & he even reset it following their unneeded service. Not a CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. Third Lie; I DID NOT MOVE ANY BARREL blocking your carwash entrance & for you to accuse me of doing that is beyond ridiculous. If Shawn is such an honest guy, as you initially touted to me, he would have told you HE MOVED THAT BARREL & then told me to drive in & he'd start the carwash. It never started, not one drop of water was ever released. Shawn even apologized to me saying he was sorry he didn't realize it was not working. I was even told to come back in the Springtime for a free wash. I hope my reviews give future potential customers pause before taking their vehicle to your service center. Again with the false accusations. Any still pictures you claim to have of "a woman moving your barrel" is not me. Ask Shawn, IF he's the honest guy you say he is, he'll tell you the truth, HE MOVED THAT BARREL. YOU however are the height of an unprofessional businessman. Funny how when you texted me pleading with me to bring the car back you stated "I'm not like those other guys, I'm professional & I just want to make it right for you" HA AND by calling a dissatisfied customer a "Karen" immediately identifies you as a immature & hateful MAGA, certainly NOT ANY KIND OF PROFESSIONAL!
