Brought my 2 month old “dealership purchased” vehicle for a “Used Car” check. The staff was awesome and very friendly and knowledgeable. Found my new place for everything car related I need!

Very professional, informative and even went so far to give me a ride back to my home. I most definitely will be returning for future work.

Thank you Honest 1 for honesty and integrity! You fixed what I needed fixed, and got my car back on the road. You didn't try and oversell me on something that didn't need to be done at this time. You even worked with me and my wife when power and internet went down because a tree fell. I will definitely be bringing my car to Honest 1 in the future!

Hi Brandon- We really appreciate your kind words and for supporting our small family business! Thank you!

Can't quote over the phone that's ridiculous. Like people have all the time in the world to bring a vehicle in just for a quote. That's sad

Hi Robert- we can't give you a quote over the phone for a fuel leak repair as fuel could be leaking from dozens of places and could range from a few dollars to the thousands. We would have been happy to give you a to the penny estimate if you would have let us inspect the car and identify the leak. Thank you and have a great day!

Charged me $81 to tell me the heater hose had a leak which was obviously the reason I took it there. Chris advised he might not be able to get the part due to age of the vehicle. He then told me good news he found one but had to wait on the part. The bad news the estimate was $830.20 for parts and labor. Another shop was about 1/2 of that. I bought assembly on line ,1 gallon antifreeze total $55 and fixed it in a parking lot. Chris did offer to buy the car for $100, Honest? I don't think so.

Hi Jim- Thank you for giving us a try and for taking time to leave us feedback. We’re very sorry you didn’t think our service was a good value. We firmly stand behind our prices and in most cases can meet or beat any apples to apples competitor quotes. We stand behind all our work and recommendations with a 3 year/36k mile warranty, complimentary roadside assistance, and offer free loaner cars. We only offered to buy your car AFTER you insisted we make you an offer. $100 is what we would have gotten to scrap your car for you. Thank you again for your feedback and have a great day!

Reply rebuttal, I told Chris we were in process of selling my father's car, he took his employee who was interested in purchasing this car to look at it. I told him I knew what the value of my father's car was worth fixed BUT was OPEN to an offer as is. I did contact a steel recycler in Prescott Wi and was quoted $245 for the car as scrap. I doubt Chris would have scrapped the car for a heater hose. Honest? I don't think so.

The price to change out two rear break calipers was $1,150, I called adaptive repair in south Saint Paul and there price was only $450!

Hi Jim- Thank you for giving us a try and for taking time to leave us feedback. We’re very sorry you didn’t think our service was a good value. We quoted you $781.84 to replace your rear calipers, not $1150. We firmly stand behind our prices and in most cases can meet or beat any apples to apples competitor quotes.
