When I went back to the facility, they did not help me whatsoever and told me that they couldn't determine what the issue was.. For two years I called Customer Service to just get a credit and after several calls Customer Service never replied. It's unfortunate. I always tipped, and thought I had a good rapport with the staff but when I went back with a problem, I was treated terribly. You shouldn't provide a service if you can't fix the problem.

I received an oil and filter change and requested a change in the cabin filter. The service was thorough and quick. It was well worth the 16 mile drive from Merrillville.

I also took advantage of the shuttle service this time and that was also a great experience, the driver was very friendly and shared some funny stories from his days working in Vegas years ago. So far so good! Came here because a friend referred me and I'm not disappointed so far. I called a couple days ago and got a quote and set up an appointment to come in on a Friday. Just a heads up it was busy today and I heard them tell a customer Fridays are busy so if you need to come in later in the week I would try and make an appointment. Everyone I've interacted with so far has been very pleasant and kind. They even have a ride shuttle if you need it. I was sitting waiting for a friend for a bit and an employee just in with me to make sure I didn't need a ride or anything. Great customer service! I came in for a Brake Master Cylinder replacement.

And man, do these absolute legends of automotive repair always leave me incredibly satisfied with their fast and high quality work. Within 3 days, not including thanksgiving, they had everything finished. The problem is gone, and so are several other smaller problems that turns out were attached to the whole "everything is leaking" problem. The rough idle is gone, the power dips are gone, throttle response is better, no more oil burning smell. I dont know exactly what they did, but the fantasy in my head is that these engine wizards waved a magic wand and poofed my car into factory performance state. I have a 2008 base model chevy impala with just shy of 200,000 miles on the odometer, theyve done plenty of work on it in the past, and im sure theyll do more in the future. Well i'd hope i wouldnt need that work, but should i need that work, theyre always the first phone call. The people here are professionals, in every regard. They make Jiffy Lube look like a bad joke. This place is busy, because they have a lot of customers, because the people in this area know they are the best place to have anything done on your car. But even as busy as they are, everything is always done quickly and without any flaws. Could not recommend hometown auto repair more, i know my ancient worn out car is in good hands every time its there.
