I dropped my truck off, and they called me shortly after with a clear explanation of exactly what was wrong; which matched perfectly with what I already knew going into it based on other shops/family friends I had taken it to beforehand. No upselling, no runaround, just straight to the point. They quoted me a very reasonable price for all the front-end work I needed done to get it ready for an alignment. Other shops would've easily been closer to $1600-$1800 for the same job, and they got it done for under $1200. That alone speaks for itself. On top of that, the parts they put on for me come with a 3-year / 36,000-mile warranty, which shows they actually stand behind their work and aren't just trying to push you out the door. Overall, they were honest, efficient, and fairly priced which is exactly what you want in a shop. I really don't get some of the reviews because my experience was the complete opposite. Just remember; most people don't go online to leave a good review when things go right. Don't let a few bad reviews stop you from giving them a shot.

Major Red Flags. I…read morebrought them 2 vehicles for service with different needs. 2018 Honda Fit the dealership said was due for front brakes, and a 2021 Toyota Supra I was bringing in for alignment after lowering. The price quoted for the Honda's brakes was not as far from the dealer quote as I would have liked but they said they needed to do a full brake inspection first (despite having the dealer inspection paperwork). Their inspection said the front brakes didn't really need replaced but the back drums needed a much more expensive replacement. I opted out of any work done on that car. They charged me $45.00 (I had a coupon for free brake inspection printed from their website that they did not honor despite phone confirmation) The Supra had the alignment completed, or at least I was billed for one being completed. They did not provide any of the normal telemetry data for before and after alignment. They noted on the bill that one wheel had slightly too much camber, but was not adjustable. If they had said something about that during the process I would have bought a kit to adjust it (instead I will have to have someone else do another alignment on that part of the car). They did not either notice or tell me about the bands in one of the tires being busted to the point where the tire was tearing itself apart. They also did not apply the coupon I left for this car. Summary: Didn't get the work I wanted done on the Honda. Didn't get the discount from their website I took the time to print and leave in the car. Diagnosed a more expensive issue than the dealership. May have gotten the work done on the Supra. Didn't get standard documentation, didn't get told about an issue with the alignment, didn't get told about the safety issue, didn't get the discount from their website I took the time to print and leave in the car.

And I live in the neighborhood. Hate to have to go somewhere else that is inconvenient but can't stand the treatment from this shop any longer. And the drain it puts on my bank account with any small problem. Just bite the bullet and take your car to the dealer. At least it will get fixed correctly.

I've taken six vehicles to Certified for repairs over the last 10 years since moving to Oldham County. Since Steve sold the business a year or more ago, I was a little apprehensive to say the least because the service had been exceptional. Steve assured me I would get the same service from Nate, the new owner. There's been a huge turnover in the last year due to retirements, health issues etc. However, I still take my vehicles there because the service hasn't changed. Just as promised. The main replacement personnel are just as good or better. Honestly, integrity found there. They warrant their work! The two negative 1 Star reviews should be ignored. There must have been some miscommunication going on there in both those cases.

Finally Thursday they quote me $1000 to replace a module but ONLY after I asked did they tell me my car would work fine with a new battery. Then I was charges $500 for a battery because they spent hours "diagnosing" the car rather than just calling me to say "Your car is working fine with just a battery but we can spend hours diagnosing everything single thing so you can pay us more if you want."

Monday morning shortly after 7:00 a.m. I called Wildt and asked if they would repair my tire. In a very courteous manner the gentleman who answered my call stated that if I brought in in then it would be repaired and ready for me to return between 10:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. Upon arrival, the tire was taken -- my information given and that was it. At 10:45 I returned to the station. I was shown what was removed from the tire and presented with the cost of the service. The repaired tire was installed on my vehicle, the spare and all components carefully placed in required positions. The gentlemen treated me with dignity and respect along with what I considered to be a fair charge for such a valuable service. All of this also took place in over 90 degree heat. So based on this one service I will not hesitate to return when my vehicle needs future service.

And then, as an added insult to injury, my truck wouldn't turn over in their parking lot after I paid them. I walked back in to tell them about it, so they sent someone out to check it out.

He pushed the adjustment too far in the other direction. Terrible work! I'm not going back Kavanaugh's and give them any reasons to rip me off again. I can live without low gear. This work should have cost about $200. Today, I got my truck back from Shuffitt's Auto Repair down on Preston Hwy. It needed a new starter solenoid.

Carson took me in right away and helped diagnose my car for a very reasonable fee, as well as gave me price estimates for the repairs. Due to other work I had recently had done, we decided that the best thing for me was actually to tow back to Indy. Carson gave me some paper work and their assessment results so that I could have some more info for my home garage.
