I want to thank Bozeman Community Auto. Reading their reviews, I saw one that said "this is an…read morehonest business". I agree 100%. It's not very often you find a good reliable place to have your car serviced. I was concerned with me living in Denver and not being familiar with the various auto places in Bozeman. I surfed the web and found Bozeman Community Auto. It had great reviews. I had no choice but to try them. My daughter goes to Montana State in Bozeman and has my Jeep Wrangler. My daughter has had a couple of issues with her car. They fixed my daughter's car at a great price. Their technicians were very knowledgeable, explained exactly what the problem was and what it would take to fix it. Having worked on my Jeep Wrangler before, replacing the cam and rocker arms, I was very familiar with the types of issues that are common on the Jeep. Their assessment was right on! I highly recommend Bozeman Community Auto. Because of their popularity, they are busy. It will take a week or more to get your vehicle in. It's well worth the wait.

I had to get towed ( a whole other issue from Geico road side, where the contracted tow company cancelled the call 5minutes aftet he was due. The uhaul had to be towed by somebody else....geico rules... so i had to pay for towing to Boseman) anyway I slept in the back of my new teuck (2016 silverado) until Eric and Lisa opened up... They were awsome...I would give them 10 stars...Eric was right on top of my issue....heater hoses connection had corroded and needed new hoses... he solved the issue and had me rolling again...I don't think it was more than an hour and I was rolling again. I can't thank Eric and Lisa enough for their help!

The problem is my truck nearly overheated on the way coming through Lake Tahoe. I almost had to cancel my road trip but with my windows down my heater full blast and limping along at 55 mph the whole way I made it to Bozeman. I don't know anyone in Bozeman so I went off the Yelp reviewsandl let me say that Barry & Riley at B & B Auto Repair immediately seemed trustworthy they got me in and are fixing up my truck so my cooling system is safe with new camper load on grades for my trip back home to California which I'll be able to actually enjoy thanks to them since my truck will be safe so I won't be anxious about the my engine the whole way. these guys are excellent

Auto Stop installed a rebuilt engine in my VW Vanagon. Within three miles of leaving the shop, the…read morelow coolant warning alarm came on. I immediately returned, but after a brief inspection I was told there was nothing wrong. When I left the shop, the warning alarm came on again. I called Auto Stop, explained that the warning had returned, and was again assured there was nothing wrong. I was told to wait and see if the alarm came on again after driving. Unfortunately, the problem persisted, and I could smell coolant burning on the hot engine. I made it home just before coolant began dripping from the vehicle. At that point, I had the van towed to another repair shop. The second shop found that the primary coolant hose from the reservoir to the engine had been installed incorrectly and was approximately 3/4 inch too short. They also discovered a second hose with a large bulge that was on the verge of rupturing. Both issues required immediate repair. What disappointed me most was not simply that mistakes were made, but that my concerns were repeatedly dismissed. After the warning alarm came on twice within minutes of leaving the shop, I expected a thorough inspection of the cooling system rather than reassurance that nothing was wrong. Because of the improper installation, I incurred more than $500 in additional repair costs, plus the cost of towing the vehicle to another shop. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Auto Stop. The quality of the installation, the lack of careful follow-up, and the poor customer service left me with significant additional expense and inconvenience.

Was driving home from vacation and the battery light came on. I suspected it was the alternator as…read morethis happened about 2 1/2 years ago. I looked for the nearest exit which took me into Livingston. It was late at night so I had to find a place to stay for the night. Early the next morning I did a Google search of mechanics in Livingston and called A-1 Muffler & Auto Repair. They had me come right in. Fortunately my battery still had enough charge to get me to their shop. They confirmed it was the alternator. After a call a parts guy delivered a new alternator, but it was the wrong model. After some more searching an alternator was found in Bozeman, a 25 mile drive away, which they made to pick it up. After replacing the alternator everything was good and I was back on the road to Idaho. K.F

We left messages at several places and then left our truck at Tom's waiting for the shop to open. By the way, we never received a return phone call from any of the other shops in Bozeman! Coming off the holiday weekend Tom's was pretty booked with usual customer repairs. TJ said he would do his best to look at it by the end of the day. Sure enough we got a call saying that we needed new calipers, rotors and brake pads at the end of the day. He said it would be ready by the end of day the next day. Fortunately, it was finished by noon the next day and we were on our way to continue our trip. This is a quality business that we would highly recommend. TJ and his crew were professional, nice and made time for us.

Took it to Righty Tighty, explained that this car had been in and out of other shops, was on it's third cat in 5000 miles, and asked them to figure out what was wrong with it. Righty Tighty then took it upon themselves to replace the cat a third time, without doing any diagnostics on WHY the cats were failing. Didn't call to talk to me about it, just told me after it was done. Was told that the last job just put on a bad cat and that I'd be fine. I foolishly believed them. Two months later, my car broke down driving back from SLC. Luckily, it broke down during the day in summer with cell reception and I was able to get it towed back to the nearest town. That shop actually did do diagnostic work, and found a failing fuel injector that had resulted in the failed cats the entire time. By the time this was discovered, the cylinder was far enough gone that it essentially destroyed the engine. This happened on a 2018 Subaru Impreza with 103k miles on it. Do not trust this shop with your car or your money.
