As a girl who knows nothing about cars this place was fantastic! I was stuck on the highway and…read morethey took my car in right away. Tony (I think the owner) was absolutely fantastic. He put all the problems wrong with my car in words I would understand haha! He ended up having to take my car in 2 days within 2 weeks and figured out the problem. They also give government employee and student discounts which is great! They are defiantly the GO-TO auto body shop in Lawrence. So grateful they were able to fix my car! My father in law is also a mechanic and called to make sure they were giving me a good deal and it was which made me feel much better! My father in law said they were great guys and not trying to rip me off unlike other places in town.

Absolute rip off. Sent my KU student son to get an oil change for his 2006 Chevy Colorado.

My truck was blowing hot, and I assumed I had a ac line leak. They told me there wasn't a leak, just the control panel needing replaced. They charged $350 to do this, and when I got the truck back it didn't blow at all. They continued by putting 3 or 4 new control panels in, and in the end said they finally fixed it, but now there was a leak and needed another $530 to fix it. I ONLY agreed to continue because they confirmed the truck was blowing properly now. I took it home and it's not blowing at all again. I went in today and they now say it's likely not the control panel at all, but they only agreed to refund $335 dollars or leave the truck with them again after being argumentative and treating me like an idiot. My issue is simply the fact they tried the control panel multiple times, never fixed the blowing issue, lied and said they did so I'd spend another $530 to fix the leak, and now they say it's not the control panel at all. Such a scam. Stay away!!!

Not only is the staff polite and accommodating, but the service is second to none, efficient, and professional. Jimmy (may be the owner- he's always the guy I interact with) is always kind, knowledgeable, and patient when it comes to questions and needing something explained. Anytime friends ask for shop recommendations, I always refer them to K's! Also, it is probably important to mention that they gave me the lowest quote for new tires out of any of the shops in lawrence. Great dudes. Great service. Great shop. Go to K's!

Maybe third times a charm. Since they mentioned my yelp review on my Google review, let me repost…read moreit again. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE: The only thing this shop ever did right possibly was tires and brakes. I was a fool for continuing to take my vehicles there after several mishaps. When people show you who they are believe them the first time. I took my daughter's VW convertible there to get an alternator change. They CHANGED IT TWICE. Last week, the alternator gave out again within the time span that it was under warranty with the parts place advance auto. I no longer deal with K-Tire because of their incompetence so I took it somewhere else that shop found out that they use silicone and glue the connector into the alternator which is why it ultimately kept failing. GLUE AND SILICONE. Advance auto we're kind enough to reimburse me the labor and cost at the new shop $460 so that I wouldn't have to deal with K-Tire again. So we're very clear. This is not the first time that they have proved their work shotty and subpar. As you can see photos that I have attached here I paid $688 to have my daughter's heat fixed just to be told when I went to pick it up that the heat wasn't fixed and it needed a heater core, which was going to be another $1400. I'm not sure what I paid $688 for and I didn't even question it at the time. I think I was just concerned with the fact that it was gonna cost me another $1400 for her to have heat. I think you're able to test the heater core with the temperature gauge before you charge someone $688 to give them the same vehicle back that they brought in that didn't have heat. I PICKED UP THE SAME VEHICLE WITH NO HEAT THAT I TOOK THEM THE ONLY DIFFERENCE WAS I GAVE THEM $688 DOLLARS. Before that incident I brought the same car in to get her side view mirror assembly replaced. They broke the plastic part on assembly that held it on the vehicle. I went to pick it up, they had put a bolt through the broken plastic piece and the frame of my daughter's car. Not only did it look ridiculous. WHO GAVE THEM THE PERMISSION TO DRILL THROUGH THE FRAME OF MY VEHICLE? NO ONE!!!!!!!!!And if that wasn't enough when I went to drive off and I was trying to adjust the mirror it wouldn't work because they weren't even smart enough to plug it in when they put it on. They had to take it apart again just to plug it up. They then tried to say it was broken when I brought it in and I had taken pictures so it clearly showed that it wasn't and I ended up ordering the piece and they did put it on and reimburse me, but if I hadn't had proof, they have blamed me. Fast forward I've been in a nightmare with my car since January between this shop and the shop they took it to who was just as horrible Don's Auto Center don't take your car there either. I had a fuel pump issue with my vehicle. They put on a fuel pump module didn't work. Car ended up failing while I was on the highway going 70+mph on highway 59. It Failed than 30 minutes of me, picking it up from their shop. It actually failed more than once. They ended up reimbursing me for that failure of a repair. I took them to court. I couldn't believe how he sat in court and lied. One thing about me I keep immaculate notes and I keep a receipt everything I say I can prove. I won judgment against them. Save yourself the headache. Megamind Please. I never said that I bought an alternator from them. I said they put an alternator on my daughter's car twice. Everything I'm saying, I have proof of.

A fantastic auto shop; I as well disagree wholeheartedly with Ellie's assessment…read more My truck started GUSHING coolant - well, not "gushing", but it was dripping noticeably more - and so I took it to Free State, which happened to be the closest shop to my home. Terry was very nice, having patience through my "just-woke-up-and-too-tired-to-deal-with-a-broken-truck" haze. He was able to diagnose my problem (a broken water pump) AND get me in and out in the same day. He even managed to fix the problem without charging the maximum that it would have been! It was a very happy Holiday relief, and I will most certainly be taking my old truck back to FSAW for any future (and hopefully minor) repairs that it'll need.

Every time they would tell me they didn't hear it, it had always made that noise or it was this or that. Finally I took it to another shop and found out they had put on 2 different sized struts and broke part of it trying to force it in when it wasn't the right size. I'm super frustrated because of the way I was treated, all the time that was wasted by me leaving my car there and me asking them to fix it only to find out they indeed did crappy work that was causing the problem. I will never take my car back and I will tell as many people as possible not to take their car back. I was able to get the work redone correctly at no charge but super frustrated at all the time that was wasted and the 6 times I was without the use of my car because of bad service.
