We had just moved to Lafayette, LA and our car started acting up. We talked to our neighbors, friends and relatives for a good, trustworthy, local auto repair shop. Mike's Car Care Center kept popping up. Mike's gave us an honest appraisal of the car's problems, fixed what we needed and got us back on the road the same day. We highly recommend Mike's Car Care Center to all! read more

My 4 cylinder truck was running on 3 cylinders. Very reduced power. Check engine light on all the time. Mike's carcare said it was fixed, charged me and I thought it was good. Next day, check engine light back on and again running on 3 cylinders. AVOID Mike's Car Care. Waist of time and money. read more

If you don't mind making multiple trips back and paying them to just change parts until they finally figure it out... this is the shop for you. And don't expect them to reimburse you for their prior misdiagnosis. I suspect they require your funds to train their technicians and management. read more

I purchased a battery in December, 2021. 3 months later my car would not start. I called Dave's and was told that it was not the battery, because there was a grinding noise as I tried to start the engine. This would not happen if the battery was dead. Dave's said to bring it in and they would find the problem . I took it to another auto repair shop add they said the charging system is fine. The battery is dead. How long did Dave's have that battery in storage so it would last only 3 months? I filed a review about this not long ago. Apparently I used the wrong Dave's. Lafayette has several Dave's Auto Repair. The one I am reviewing is at 103 Rena Drive. read more

Went to get my car inspected and they were so nice and friendly! A lot of times car shops don't have the best customer service but this was not the case. Got my car inspected in ten minutes and was on my way! I will be back for my next one! read more

Been using mikes for over 20 years and couldn't be happier with an auto shop. Always over deliver with integrity and workmanship. They are what you hope for when your car needs help. Highly recommend. read more

AMAZING customer service! I brought my car in yesterday morning to troubleshoot the air conditioner and check engine light. Shortly after dropping off my car I received a call letting me know the exact issues and the cost of repairs. My car was ready at the end of the day and the cost of repairs very reasonable! My first time here and I am a loyal customer now! read more

I have been bringing my car to Mike's for a few years now after hearing good things from my grandfather. I use them for everything from oil changes, to major repairs. I trust their expertise, and feel confident that they are giving me real answers and great help. It is usually pretty easy to get my car over there with a day or so notice. read more

I should have turned around and left as soon as the man said, "whacha need woman?" Who talks like that?? I described the issues with my truck, and without him even looking at the truck said there "wasn't anything he could do...sounds like you need a new engine, go to Stan's down the street". What poor customer service! With that being said, I went to windwood chevron, turns out all I needed was a tune up and I was treated with respect. Mikes care care is not recommended, they are very unprofessional. read more

We stopped here due to the food Yelp reviews my family and I were traveling through due to a military move across country when his car began overheating. Took the car there at 8 when they opened and stayed all day there while they changed the thermostat. If you are a woman do not talk to these people because apparently woman are beneath them. I have never been somewhere that I have felt so uncomfortable. We leave bc they insisted that it was good to drive and 10 miles down i10 it overheats again. $250 and a wasted day later we are stil stranded in Lafayette. I'm assuming there is a reason that their front glass is broken. Stay away read more

Great car care service! Trustworthy and dependable and affordable!

I had bought the parts for my car thinking I would be able to change them out myself and realized I wouldn't be able to. I figured they would be able to help me out considering I would pay whatever price for them to change them for me. The guy on the phone was rude and told me he wouldn't do it and to call someone else... Not at all what I was expecting considering the previous reviews above... read more

Brought my wife's Avalon there with engine codes and diagnostic printouts along with the parts I wanted changed. Was told another part was changed and vehicle was fixed only to have the same codes come in again as I traded the vehicle in for a Subaru. Cost me $1000 on trade-in value read more

Do not go here. I had a fuel pump replaced last year that they not only overcharged me for at $900 but they put the wrong one on. I just had to have it replaced, again, at a competitor that charged me less than half for a new fuel pump and labor. This place is a scam, only go here if you want to be taken advantage of. read more

These guys, as real as it gets. I so admire their honesty and they are just good people. We brought my car to a dealership to get serviced bc it was close to our house and we were leaving for vacation, but previously we always got repairs done at Mike's. The dealership quoted us over 2 grand and charged us a $100 fee to hook up to the computer. I was furious. We took the car to Mike's, Mike looked at it within 5 minutes and told us nothing was really even wrong just a sensor that needed to be changed, turned off the stupid warning lights and our car has been fine since! I can't recommend this place enough! If you want to know what is actually going on with your car, and not get lied to from the dealerships that just want your money and take advantage of your lack of knowledge, go to Mike's!! You'll be glad you did! read more
