Mundelein Automotive

My daughter's 2018 sentra sounded like she was driving with a bucket of nails in the rear end Thursday night Jan 22 2026. Called Nissan and just to look at the car they were charging a diagnostic fee and a week out for an appointment. Called 2 more places no appt for 1 to 2 weeks out. On my way home from work stopped into Mundelein Automotive and was automatically greeted with kindness and professionalism. Explained my situation and one of the managers said that they are booked until Wednesday.....BUT he said let me see what I can do for you. He checked again and was able to fit me in Monday at 8am. Long story short turned out to be a heat shield. From start to finish was there for a total of 12 minutes. OUTSTANDING SERVICE from start to finish. I have definitely found my car repair sh

As a return customer, I’ve taken my 2010 Honda to Mundelein Automotive for several maintenance services, they have always been able to get me in within a day or two, prices are fair and I have been really happy with their honesty, expertise and work performed. Rick is responsive and keeps you informed on the status of your car. Highly recommend!

So thankful I found this mechanic shop last minute. I called ahead of time yesterday morning because my heater had stopped working. Right away they told me to bring in my car to have it be checked. They already had an idea of what that problem could be, they checked it and had it fixed within a couple of hours. Rick was very polite. I am very appreciative with them being so quick on fixing my heater issue knowing its the middle of winter too.

Rob and the crew are the best. Always fair on pricing, great on work done, and knowledgeable and caring. Will never go anywhere else. Appreciate you guys very much.

An oil-filter gasket blew out on my car, and I had Mundelein Automotive evaluate it since it occurred just down the block from them. I have come to learn an event like that (rather clearly) points to a faulty oil-pressure regulator/relief valve or related oil pump issue—not just a loose or improperly installed filter as they advised me. And they advised me as such despite the fact the filter was installed nearly 6 months ago and had been just fine with no leaks. They simply blamed it on my usual mechanic for somehow "crushing" the gasket during installation at my last oil change, even though it would be nearly impossible for a filter to contain oil pressure for that long (if at all) if the gasket was somehow pushed outside of its groove during install. Every other mechanic I've discussed
