You know that feeling you get in the pit of your stomach when you have to take your car in for…read morerepairs? Well, say goodbye to that feeling forever. These guys are honest, straight forward, doing what they want to do, and they're brilliant! We've taken cars here for years, and the level of dedication, service & value is as high as ever. They are utterly trustworthy & treat everyone with respect. Do yourself a favor & pull into this garage with a smile on your face!

I've been using Buzz's for years and wouldn't take my vehicles anywhere else! I've even gotten…read moreeveryone in my family to use them. Their customer service is on point, you will always pay what is quoted or below, and yes, they always call before doing a service, after diagnosing your car to make sure it's something you can afford, and if it's not, they might even give a Band-Aid option if there is a Band-Aid option to give. I've worked with every mechanic throughout the years, with different cars when my main mechanic. (Jeff, who deserves an awesome review of his own) is unable to get my car or one of my kids cars in and I need it fixed ASAP and have yet to have a single bad experience in the 14 years I have been using them. They are very decently priced, (except on oil changes, because with their expertise, you're gonna be paying a little bit more than Valvoline, that's just how mechanic shops work though), and don't try to sell you more than what you need. They get your car in, they diagnose your issue and they fix it after you consent to having it fixed. They're so great that they don't even have to advertise, because word of mouth and their reputation in Collinsville speaks for itself. Sometimes you might have to wait a week or two to be able to get your car in, because they are that good, but once they get your car in, you will have it back within a day or two (and that's only cause they have to wait for parts). You are their number one customer when your turn comes up and they are worth the wait if you can hold out. I think the longest I've ever had to wait though was a week and a half to get a car in, and in emergent situations, (like when my dad's truck died and he had the only working vehicle for himself and my 93-year-old grandmother to get around in), they fit you in same day/next day, in between other appointments,, to make sure you have a working vehicle. Now that just might be because they knew my father by then and knew his situation, but that's also what you get with a small town auto shop is familiarity. I have multiple cars, so I'm willing to wait a few weeks for them to fit me in and wait for Jeff since he knows my personal vehicle the best as he's the one who's worked on it since the day I bought it. Admittedly, I am probably one of the reasons why it takes a week or two to get your car in, because I am the person people turn to when looking for a service because they know I've vetted the area and have already picked out the best of the best, so when I get asked about auto repair, I send them to Buzz's, so I probably shot myself in the foot with getting my car in within a few days, like it was when I first moved here a decade and a half ago, lol. But I promise you, they are worth it. Trust them, because out of all the places I've lived (used to be military family), and all the mechanics I've had to use throughout my 30+ years of car ownership, they are the one place I would say I trust completely. I'd also like to point out that I am a very tiny, dainty female, who looks like she would be taking advantage of at a mechanic shop, but thankfully, my father taught me enough about cars to know when a fast one's being pulled over on me, and yes, I have had to deal with that in the past with different mechanics, but never once at Buzz's, with any of their mechanics, have I had that happen. So when I say you can trust them, I mean, 100% you can trust them with your vehicle and know you are getting the best value, for what you need fixed, and it will be fixed completely and in the best way possible, to fix your needs and budget

They kept the car overnight to let the engine cool to diagnose the problem. Early next morning I got the call with the diagnosis. I gave the go ahead knowing there there were a lot of "what ifs".

They gave my son and I lots of cold water and spent an hour diagnosing my leak. When they couldn't get the part to fix it in time, they wrote out everything that was wrong along with pictures to give my mechanics back home, AND DID NOT CHARGE ME ANYTHING. I have never been treated so nice in my whole life! I wish these guys operated in my home town. I would be a customer for life. They are all going to heaven that's for sure.

At Christian Brothers, I went for a routine oil change and they completed an in-depth inspection to let me know about my vehicle's health. They didn't pressure me into any services, it was such a breath of fresh air! Their lobby is extremely clean and welcoming, with snacks and drinks available while you wait. They also offer a courtesy shuttle if you don't want to wait. I'm always looking for a mechanic that I can trust to take care of my vehicle, but not take advantage of my lack of knowledge on car maintenance, and I found one! I look forward to using Christian Brothers in Shiloh for all of my vehicle maintenance needs!
