Warning to consumers: we were charged $680.34 for work that never been authorized at the Meineke…read moreCar Care Center in Northbrook, IL My husband brought our car for a service and obtain the written estimate. When he picked it up, our credit card had been charged extra $680.34 for additional services that were not in the estimate and that never had been approved. The mager of the shop did not verify with my husband the amount to be charged when processed the payment. When we questioned about the charge, the manager claimed she had texted to my husband a revised estimate and that he had agreed to it. However, she could not provide any proof in support of her words, and we never received such a message. Despite this fact, the invoice listed the extra work as "approved." It's very sad as we used this shop for a long time in the past and had been always happy with the service. However, the previous owner retired and the new owner Nish Kirk could easaly destroyed the reputation, earned by this business for many years'. Consumers should be very cautious. Charging for work without the client authorization and marking it as "approved" is extremely concerning. We strongly advise anyone using this location to carefully review their estimate and final invoice before paying.

I ended up taking it to a shop and got done what it needed for 2grand. The vehicle is riding without an issue. The man who works your front desk was speaking for the mechanic and that lost your business money, if you care? If your shop isn't capable of doing the work, just say that. Don't disrespect a customer (I've had plenty of work done with multiple vehicles there). Did he sky rocket the price because they didn't want to do the work? I'm honestly still shocked and confused by the whole situation. Crooks

I originally didn't plan on changing the diff fluid, but Rei recommended doing it while the car was already there and explained why it was a good idea. I'm glad I went ahead with it. They also took the time to inspect my front struts while the car was there and let me know they're starting to go and should be replaced soon. I appreciated them pointing that out and explaining it instead of just ignoring it. Their pricing was fair too, especially after getting quotes from a couple other places. The whole process was smooth and the car honestly feels better driving now. Definitely a shop I'd come back to and would recommend if you need work done on your car.

He seems to work on a diverse set of cars from german to japanese & american. UPDATE 12/3/21 Danny is a really great mechanic. I have now been here 3-4 times since my first visit (also with a 2018 Lexus) and he delivers everytime. Both Danny and his coworker really have a passion for cars and are a wealth of knowledge.
