Overall I'd say great value. My experience using this shop had some hurdles, but it was handled well. There was a miscommunication about scheduling that was upsetting, but they made up for it by getting me in the next day. There was a strange noise that appeared after the repair, and when I returned without an appointment to address it, it was fixed within 30 minutes at no additional cost. These situations showed me that Derek's automotive takes responsibility where other shops don't. Props to Austin at the desk for being very knowledgeable and taking care of me. Will be using them again.

These guys are fantastic! They are very friendly. They are fair, reliable and honest. The only…read moredownside is their parking lot- it's a bit snug in there- but they make it work!

We have a monitor plugged into the computer hookup that will tell us if the car is in motion, the speed, fuel gauge and the computer codes for the check engine light. So I knew the issues before I brought my vehicle to Virgils to get fixed. I called and spoke with Blake and made an appointment. The only complaint I have is that it took a long time for my vehicle to actually get looked at and repaired. That being said they were very fair with the pricing ($300 less than the dealer). In fact they could have nickled and dimed me to death but they didn't. I will be going back and I would reccomend this garage too anyone! 11/26/2019 I've now had Blake and his staff work on my vehicles multiple times. They really take their time to make sure you repair is done right. They will also attempt the least expensive fix first and will only charge you more if they have too. They are fair, ethical and trustworthy and they have proven it to me over and over!

The owner came out of the shop, listened to my problem & went for a drive with me in the car at no cost. Even though it didn't act up at the time, he surmised what the problem was & offered to fix it for $325. It got it in the shop 2 days later & it was back by the end of the day. I haven't a problem since. I'm very grateful for the service.

They ended up weaseling thousands out of us only for us to have to get a new car. This place needs to be shut down because it's not the same company it used to be and people are posting these stories right and left. Maybe it would be a great idea for us all to join a lawsuit together. They bragged about how much money they were bringing in. One of them physically was bragging about how much money they bring in now to one of my family members. Avoid this place with every fiber in you unless you want to get a new car and have a new car payment.

The diagnostic process is a rip-off, made me buy new radiator and a bunch of other unnecessary parts totaling over $1000. all i was offered was a free oil change. Came to find out all i needed was a water pump seal for my coolant leak ($5 part). This process was a total nightmare several trips back and forth. I wouldn't wish this in my worst enemy. They'll bleed you dry for as much as they can for unnecessary labor hours and parts. i have proof and receipts. Id rather pay $200 elsewhere for a oil change before i ever bring my vehicle at this establishment again. $1000 down the drain

Around 12:30pm, I called back and was told that the technician had gone home sick at noon. My car was not looked at in the 4 hours except to complete an inspection, that I had asked for. I was told someone might be able to work on my car if I left it, but that they were fully booked for the next two days. I retrieved my car and took it elsewhere.

AVOID THIS BUSINESS Made an appointment for known repairs…read more Showed up for appointment and was told they needed the car all day. They wanted to drive car around "to feel" the car. Of course, there's a charge for that "service." Instead, we asked for specific repairs and they charged for "taking a look" to confirm in addition to cost of repair. They also said they had to run codes, charged to run codes, then quoted a repair that had already been done. The communication from the "front office" to techs is ineffective resulting in wasted time and unnecessary repairs being made and quoted. If your car problem is not cookie cutter, they are not equipped or able to diagnose. Their service is mostly consuming time and charging for it.

They did a simple transmission flush. I didn't have to move the car, he was able to work around in my garage easily. Afterwards, he explained their other services and what to do if my transmission ever became a serious problem. They did charge me an additional $75 to come to Parkville, But I thought it was worth it since I didn't have to drive to my usual mechanic and wait for them to finish the job. He saved me about a day's worth of waiting and driving.

My car refused to start due to the cold weather and my attempts to have it jumped failed. I was…read morethinking it was a dead battery, but I wasn't 100% sure so I needed someone to diagnose the problem officially. Because of this, I was stuck unless I had a tow truck come out and take my car to a service place. The cost, and hassle, of doing that would have been far greater than I wanted when it was likely a simple fix for someone with car maintenance skills... Searching around, I found Kyle and after reading the only other 2 reviews at the time, I decided to give him a call. He was very courteous and promptly got me a time scheduled to come by my house to troubleshoot and fix any problems found. Very quickly, he confirmed the dead battery then proceeded to drive to an auto parts store, buy a new battery, come back and replace mine. It all took less than an hour and was exactly the kind of service I was hoping I could find! Kyle does much more than simply change a dead battery, so give him a shout if you are in need of car maintenance at your home! He saved me a good deal of time, money, and grief; I will indeed be using him again in the future.
