When I was last at the dealership service center for an oil change last summer, I got a huge list of services my car (2016 Mazda CX-5) was due for. Considering my car is 10 years old and that I've been putting off some of the services for a while, I decided that it was time to get those done; however I didn't like the price that I was getting from this place or the other Mazda service centers I called. I figured I'd give a local shop a try and I'm extremely glad I did! From the very first call I was already feeling good about these guys. Lee picked up the phone pretty quickly; I asked if I could email the list of services to them and get their quotes, and he said no problem and gave me their email. He also answered a few other questions I had and kept everything effortless and professional. After I emailed them I got a quick reply from Brian who also answered my questions and provided the quotes, which were much more reasonable! It was very easy to make an appointment for my car, and even when I had to reschedule there was no trouble doing so. I dropped my car off in the morning and met both Lee and Brian who were both very friendly and personable. Their waiting room is comfortable with a TV, a fridge with water, and even some toys to keep kids occupied while you wait. Since I was leaving my car for the day I brought my Onewheel electric skateboard, which Lee saw, and he showed me his e-bike and we talked a bit about PEVs (personal electric vehicles) before I rode my Onewheel back home. My car was ready for pickup by the end of the day as they said it would be, and it's been running great ever since! I also recently got an oil change there and it was probably the fastest one I've experienced from giving them the keys to getting them back (no more than 45 minutes, compared to the dealership service center where I've waited ~90 minutes on average). Everything has been uncomplicated with no surprises so far! Aside from the quick and straightforward work that they do, I also appreciate that they have a rewards program that helps you save money on future services. They are also regular sponsors of local events and are a big part of the community. It feels much better bringing my car to a local shop that supports and gives back to the community rather than going to a dealership that doesn't really do that. I'll definitely be returning here again! read more

ProAuto has always been great!! They have always been very friendly and knowledgeable and fix any problems that come up with my car. Brian has been especially helpful to me. Thank you for everything!! read more

If I could offer more than five stars I would. I live in Evanston and have used a local place for years. They recently told me that I needed to replace the control arms on my classic car to the tune of "ohmigod" kinda money. They told me it was pretty critical and needed to be done soon, because they were rusted and a large pothole could cause a front wheel to pop right off. I told them I'd have to think about it, 'cause honestly that's as much as the car's worth. Fast forward to today, a very good friend recommended that I get a 2nd opinion from Lee at ProAuto. I called and made an appt. and Lee checked it out today. He told me two things. 1) yes, there's some corrosion, but it's far from panic stage, especially given how little I drive this car, and 2) the price was less than half of what I was quoted by my local place... and they refused to charge me for their evaluation. Pro auto is a bit of a drive for me, but it's a large, clean storefront, the staff is pleasant and helpful, they have loaners (they have loaners!!!), and they seem to know what they're doing. I think I've found my new mechanics. I've had them quote out some add'l work on my baby. I have a good feeling. read more

ProAuto is the best car service and auto repair shop in the Chicago Suburbs! I drive from Highland Park to Morton Grove to use ProAuto because they have the best customer service, are incredibly fast, and, most importantly, they are honest. This is especially meaningful because, as a woman, I often get taken advantage of at auto shops. I previously visited a car care shop in Highland Park (I won't name any names), and they took over 48 hours to perform an oil change. Additionally, they suggested an abundance of unnecessary maintenance. ProAuto saved me over $3,000, and I will recommend them to everyone I know for their fantastic service. Thank you, Brian, for all your help with my car and my husband's car this past June! Lastly, I love that this business is woman-owned. Shout out, Julie! read more

I found the estimate I received at this shop much higher than estimates I got at other shops.

I had taken my car to a shop that I've been going to for a very long time and I was told to go to the shop because they would help me with my problem getting my car aligned because they my car was a bit low and it didn't fit . I'm really particular who works on my car at the front desk was Brian I was pleased his personality a little smile a little conversation goes along way amazing business great people I trust them working on my car with anything definitely going back and telling other friends I know About the shop thank you gentlemen :-) read more

Couldn't be happier with my experience at this facility for a brake job. My vehicle was serviced promptly and as quoted. Very efficient and professional experience from the initial appointment until I picked up my car. Shuttle service was excellent. I will be using this shop going forward for all my vehicles! read more

This shop has been around my neighborhood for the past few years but I never had the opportunity to come here. Recently got work done on my car and it was honestly the best place I've been to in years. Brian and Lee made the process easy for me and were patient with my vehicle that was needed so many additional parts for a water pump. Their responsiveness in informing me of what needed to get done and how quickly they took care of it is admirable and wish other shops approached it the same way. It is hard to find a good mechanic shop and I have found my favorite. I look forward to continuing my business with them. Their prices are affordable and reasonable depending on the make/model and much cheaper than the dealership. Thank you! I will be back again :) read more

I had a flat tire yesterday. I changed it to the spare but the spare had very little air. Looking for the 1st place with a pump I saw ProAuto. Told me to pull right in. The crew had other jobs but jumped right on it. They filled the tire to the proper psi. I was in and out in minutes. I offered a few bucks for the effort. They declined and asked for a hand shake instead. They were great! The garage was super clean! All were very curtesy and friendly! They turned my lemon of a day into lemonade. THANK YOU! read more

Thank you, Lee and Brian for looking into my brakes issue so quickly. I really appreciate the fast diagnosis and repairs. As always, I feel that I am treated well at your shop and your prices are fair. I'm glad that my other family members use ProAuto, too. I'm confident that they are also driving safe vehicles. read more

I LOVE this shop!! They are so easy to deal with. Very fair in pricing and clear communication. No ugly surprises. We have been going to them since they came to Morton Grove. I highly recommend. read more

Professional, quick, and straight to the point. What more can you ask for. Will be going back for sure

The best shop for all your needs. Very efficient and cost effective. They inform you as much as they can and try to get you out as fast as possible, as it should be! I would suggest coming to ProAuto for any of your service needs. Thanks again gentlemen for all your hard work it's truly appreciated! read more

Helped us in a real pinch! A friend discovered a much more serious problem when doing some less complicated work on our SUV one Friday night, in Glenview. (We live 40ish mi. away) Was able to drop it by first thing Monday and Lee got to figuring it out and working on it right away! Car was done in 24 hours and is working like normal, drove home on 90 with no problems whatsoever. Very accommodating, great communication, overall great service. *wish it wasn't so far away because we'd definitely continue to use ProAuto as our go-to! Thanks Lee, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

Found these guys looking for a synthetic oil change. They did a great job. The waiting area was clean and comfortable, the person running the show named Scott was straightforward, easy to work with, and honest. They went above expectations and helped me with a bumper that had some broken brackets and was the price was very reasonable. I later brought back my vehicle that needed major repairs and the experience was exactly the same. Nice to find a garage that you can depend on these days. I usually have to drive way into the city to have this experience. They just became my local garage. Thank you very much, will be back! read more

I WILL bring my cars back here! I brought in our 23 year old Honda for a multitude of problems, including the possibility of a total braking system replacement, etc. Scott and his crew are so honest! They did the diagnostic and advised they couldn't, in good conscience, even change the oil because of the likelihood of problems "snowballing" in the near future. I'm so impressed with their honesty! read more

Great Shop! Lee and Scott were very friendly and walked me through the issues on my car. They were fast and pricing was fair. This will be my go to spot from now on! They were also practicing social distancing and wearing masks which I appreciated! read more

Great and efficient service from the whole team. Scott - the manager - was very helpful.

This is my new go too place! First everyone is really friendly! I brought my car in since the brakes were squeaking, and they helping me out no problem. I told them I was hoping to get done in a time frame, and they made sure to do that! I'm really impressed with the business. Scott & Leroy were helping me and made sure I knew what was going on. Please check this place out! Especially if you don't like you current place. Make that change, and make this place your new FAVORITE!! *covid friendly* they were wearing face masks, they had hand sanitizer available. read more

ProAuto - The Shop - Auto Repair Near Me - Morton Grove, Illinois

I recently found out that the owner Lee is a diagnostic mechanic. He is a pro at really getting into the issue your vehicle has, without having to troubleshoot his way through the repair which takes more time and costs more money. Also. If you need new tires, Scott at the front desk will also hunt down the best deals and rebates for you and have the tires dropped off at their shop to install. The warehouse is in the area. We've been bringing our cars here since they opened and are really impressed. Also it's one of the cleanest shops I've ever been in. They are also extremely involved in the local community and charities that they sponsor. read more

They did a great job on our Toyota's heating &AC system. Good price, quick service, and very easy to work with.

I was in need of a minor repair, but did not make an appointment. I arrived at Pro Auto before business hours; the manager was already in. I explained my issue and said that I was in a hurry. The manager repaired my car immediately and I was on my way in less than 15 minutes. This is great customer service! read more

My car was broken!! Went out for 3 estimates knowing there was definitely something going on with my car and it wasn't going to be good. I've been working with the same repair facility for yrs w/trust and believed they worked on my behalf, that was my 1st mistake. Drove into the new place on Dempster in Morton Grove (ProAuto) and ask too look over and give me a full & total inspection of what I need for repairs. Boy oh boy did I get a really check!! I was told "you should NOT even be driving this car "and with that gave me a list of 3 things that must be fixed before I continue driving this car. Long story short I'm shown a rusted hole the size of a quarter or two. Me: how long has this been rusting? He: a few yrs Me: why wasn't I informed from my other guys? He: ‍ Me: let's get too work guys. In at 10a out by ??4p My car runs smooth as new and I feel totally safe. I now have a new car repair service store PROAUTO!! Thx Lee ( owner) & Scott (manger) Oh and they gave me a new Ice window scraper. Folks I'm not lying this really happened. Thx Guys!! read more

I called in to ask if they would install a Cup kit suspension? Nothing fancy. I was met with the most condescending tone from a service shop. Scott didn't even know what a cup kit was but bragged about an LS swap that he didn't even know which LS it was. can't fake it to make it. read more

This place is terrific! I've been here several times with various car troubles. They are aways able to figure out the problem and fix it in a timely manner. Trustworthy, friendly, and take the time to explain everything. No surprises! I will only take my car here for any future needs. This place is the real deal and I am thankful that it is in the neighborhood! read more

Best repair shop I know of. They are clean, fair, very capable and efficient. Did I mention clean? The place is immaculate and they have done only the best work for me and my family of cars for the last 2 years!! I even have them work on my electric car. yes, even an EV needs maintenance every once in a while. read more

Lee, the owner of ProAuto has worked on all of my family's cars. He is honest, professional and a great mechanic. He is honestly one of the nicest people on this planet. We used to take our cars to the dealerships, but Lee's prices and customer service are way better. He and Scott will go out of their way to make sure we receive amazing service every time. The waiting room is extremely clean as is the rest of the shop. I highly recommend this business- you will not be disappointed in this well run, family owned shop. read more

I brought my car in for an oil change after leaving another establishment down the street for not following COVID mask and social distancing requirements. SO glad I did! ProAuto was spotless, friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. I was in and out in less than 30 minutes. I will be bringing my car back for brake replacements. read more

Lee has done much work for my cars over the years and he has always done a great job. In some cases he has solved problems other mechanics couldnt solve. His prices are reasonable (not cheap) and his quality is excellent. Call ahead always, get an estimate so you know what you are going to pay, make an appointment because walk-in scheduling doesnt really work anymore. They are getting too busy read more
