Absolute Auto Repair

"I brought my 2010 Dodge Journey RT (3.5L V6) to this shop for a coolant leak. After receiving estimate #31912 for a total of $3,036.22, I decided not to proceed due to technical discrepancies and costs that I find to be predatory. Technical Analysis of the Estimate: • Inflated and Overlapping Labor: I was quoted $1,417.50 for 'Camshaft Seal Remove & Replace' on top of $567.00 for the 'Timing Belt Remove & Replace'. Technically, to access the seals on this engine, the timing belt must already be removed. Charging for both procedures as independent tasks is a clear case of overlapping labor that does not align with industry standard labor guides. • Extreme Parts Markup: The timing belt and water pump kit (Gates TCKWP295D) was quoted at $710.15. For reference, a superior Continental Pro Seri

I needed some new tires for my truck. I got a few options at different price points and mileage ratings and they helped with their opinions based off my driving habits. Great experience and very happy with the tires themselves and overall level of service from Absolute Auto!

I brought my car in around September 13th for a small gas leak. After doing my own research, I suspected the issue was coming from the fuel pump and made sure to tell the shop that upfront. They told me they thought it was the starter instead, but I specifically asked that they check the fuel pump before replacing anything. They agreed, only to go ahead, replace the starter anyway, and then tell me afterward that I did in fact need a new fuel pump. They did work with me on the price of the unnecessary part, but it was still frustrating. About 2–3 weeks later, my gas gauge went out and I had to bring the car back again. They said they needed to order a part and gave me a loaner. The loaner car was hitting around 7 RPMs at only 30 mph, and when I mentioned it, it didn’t seem like a concern

These guys do amazing work. In addition, they are excellent communicators. We were stuck with some snapped wheel studs while en route to Chicago. They were able to get us in last minute and get us on the road in a few hours. It was truly miraculous. By far the best auto repair experience I have ever had in the 30 years of owning cars. Really impressive.

I can’t say enough good things about Travis at Absolute Auto Repair. He has worked on my car multiple times over the years, and every single experience has been excellent. Most recently, he replaced my brake pads, brakes, and rotors, and the process was smooth from start to finish. Travis is not only skilled at what he does, but he’s also honest, dependable, and easy to work with. He takes the time to explain things clearly without ever being pushy, and I always leave knowing my car is in great hands. It’s hard to find an auto repair shop you can truly trust, but I feel completely confident bringing my car here!!! If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely good to work with, I can’t recommend Travis and Absolute Auto Repair enough :)
