Has Smart Start installed at a different "SS Authorized" installer and was back 3 times in attempt to fix their problems. Took it to Marley and they first undid the others shops work and then reinstalled it correctly, the first time. Used them for required "recalibration" and had no issues. read more

I wish I could leave zero stars! They installed shocks (which were the same ones that cost $61.00 at Walmart) and charged $400.00 each!! That's a 650% mark-up!! I looked up the model number. The truck rode worse after their work than before! Rip-off artists that act like they are doing you a great favor by giving you a $100 coupon. Steer clear of this disreputable business. read more

Very knowledgeable people and, more importantly, honest. My friends and I have been going to Marly for years. Patrick, Rick, and Animal Rock! They don't B.S. They are straight shooters! read more

Stopped in without an appointment and they took the time to see what was rattling. Put it on the lift, reattached the heat shield and said no charge. Wow!! Nice service. Thank you. read more

RUDE AF.! I couldn't even get my question out before he interrupted me and answered with something that didn't apply, never did get my question answered. Will never go here again. read more

The worst customer service you will ever receive. The "mechanics" who can barely change an air filter on a Corolla seem to hate conversing with any customers. Don't have a job or business where you have to manage customers if you're that miserable. If you were paid for a job previously and it's abundantly clear that YOUR BUSINESS installed the parts incorrectly, that customer should be a priority, especially when they're left stranded in negative temperatures. Do not spend your money or trust this business, you will regret that decision. read more

I highly recommend Marlys's Automotive. They have great service and they're above all Honest. They don't come up with all kinds of repairs that aren't needed. I will remain with them as long as I can drive my cars. read more

This is the only place I will ever get my car fixed in MN. I had my brakes done there monday for incredibly cheap, and it is hands down the best result i have ever had from brake work. Its like a whole new car, and it was done in 4 hours with a free loaner. This place really seems like a family operation, all the guys appear happy and very helpful even though they're neck deep in oil and grease. Plus, they spent time looking at other issues with ample opportunity to upsell, and there was none of it In Summation: 1) Free Loaner if available. 2) Quick, they keep appointments. 3) They will check out other stuff and actually tell you if you need work based on the condition of your vehicle! (imagine that) 4) Friendly guys. 5) Smoothest ride this car has had in 5 years, from just a friggin' brake job! 6) Easy to get to from 35w. read more

Patrick and the Marley Auto team are great. It can be hard to find a shop that you trust and where you don't feel like they are always looking for a way to make more money off of you. I've found their service to be really good, their prices are great, and they are straight shooters. If there is a cheaper way to get things done, they will give you all the options. I have been using them for years. Will W. read more

I have been lucky to use Marley Automotive. They are the right price and do great work. I always leave feeling like they did a thorough job, which is hard to find at most auto shops with a German car. I usually see Mike on my visits, he is very kind and extremely helpful. At my last visit he listened to my concerns/problems and was quick to offer a solution and help. Thank you! read more

Never ever go to this auto shop!! The so called manager mike is so disrespectful! My boyfriend brought his smart start in to get repaired on 3 seperate times in one week and each time they did not fix it and the manager mike claimed that it worked when he did it and he can't fix something that's not broken! Absolutely bull shit! He also either didn't put back or broke the hood lever release in the cab because it was completely missing!!! And when I called to complain about customer service mike answered and proceeded to be an asshole on the phone and hung up on me. I will never ever go there again and will make it a point to tell as many people as I can not to go there! They basically stole a part from my boyfriend car! read more

Nothing but good things to say about these guys. I appreciate having mechanics I can trust when it comes to what parts to repair and when, especially if a broken part will result in a larger more expensive repair. The pricing is competitive and the location, though slightly out of the city, was no more than a 13 minute drive from south minneapolis which was shorter than driving into uptown. Highly recommended. read more

Just dropped in to have a car looked at that I was purchasing. They were able to get me in, look everything over and provide a few things I should ask about. Really impressed with the service they provided! If I lived close by, I would make this my regular mechanic!!! Rob D. read more

Great service, friendly atmosphere. Car guys that honor their word. I will go back without hesitation. A+

Definition of unprofessional, rude, and CROOK!! Will never use his shop again nor refer anyone to him, Fixed doesn't equal drive two blocks and stalled again. Absolutely why no one trusts mechanics read more

This is absolutely the best place around. I've been bringing my vehicles here for 4 years now. The first time I brought my car in to get a 2nd opinion on a $2,000 invoice I got from another place. Marley told me straight up that the other place was trying to scam me and fix stuff that didn't necessarily need fixing. They did only the work that needed to be done, they did it well, and it was inexpensive. Fast forward to today -- I made a deal on a new (used) vehicle and I called and asked if they could inspect it for me prior to buying. They squeezed me into their schedule and inspected the vehicle, and charged me.... nothing. That's unheard of. This place understands that if they treat you fairly the first time, they've got a loyal customer for life. Highly recommend! read more

I was told to bring my car in at 8:00am so that they could try and diagnose why my heat is going in and out. I dropped it off right after they opened. I was told it would only take a few hours and that they would have the owner call me. I called at 2:30pm for a follow up with them and I was told they were just about to pull my car in. At 5:00pm I called again for a follow up and there was no answer. I then received a call at 5:35pm (they close at 6:00) telling me they didn't have time to get to my vehicle. I went in to pick up my car at 5:55pm and politely asked the owner why they would tell me they were going to work on it when they weren't. I was immediately met with hostility and a disturbingly unprofessional attitude. Patrick told me that "other vehicles came in that took priority" and that "things come up." You knew by 4:00pm you weren't going to get to my car, so why on earth would you not call me and tell me that? You also had my vehicle for TEN hours, it is unacceptable that you would request I bring it in that early only to never look at it. I will NEVER be taking my vehicle to you again - not will I ever be recommending you to people. I am absolutely appalled at the lack of professionalism and the blatant disregatard for customer service. read more
