University Foreign Car Repair

They always take care of my Minis! Quick and easy, with a parking lot packed with cars, managed to inspect and then, spontaneously asked to do the list of work. Done within a couple days. Honest guys! Told me they touched the wires and light came back on. Great! No new bulb needed! These guys are top notch, know what they are doing, and get it done!! Take your foreign cars here!

I had an awesome experience here! Two days before I purchased a new alternator for my 2007 Honda Civic in Grand Rapids. I was then able to drive only one hour before my electrical system failed again. All lights had grown very dim, radio out and transmission began not shifting correctly. The car sat on the shoulder of a major expressway in Lansing, waiting for a tow, engine not running. After 1/2 hour of the car being rocked by passing cars and trucks, the electrical system suddenly came back to life, so that everything was working, lights, radio, engine starting. I had the car towed to a Honda dealer where I reported this odd behavior and asked them to please check for a possible poor connection or short in the wiring. The dealer charged an up front diagnostic fee, but did not diagnose th

These guys are awesome! My 2006 Mercedes alternator burnt out when I was driving and left me stranded. They quickly diagnosed it and were honest the whole way. They didn’t try to charge or sell me anything extra. Sure it was expensive but I have a Mercedes! Parts are always more expensive than other cars and they are always more affordable than the dealer. They assured me and showed me the OEM quality brand of alternator that they used and trust so I don’t have to come back for a warranty. They have been in business for 45 years for a reason!

NO!! Don’t put your money here! Negative star if I could. These people worked on my convertible & every time I got an expensive bill with $2500-$3500 of repairs that need immediate attention. So I was in that loop until I realized that the ‘repairs’ fell into a repetitive cycle where the price ranges were similar and began to look more like phone numbers than random repairs. I hired an honest mechanic in Fowlerville and my car has run great for many years without those expensive repairs. Go figure, right?

I would never recommend University Auto to anyone. The owner is rude, dishonest, and unprofessional. I brought my vehicle in for an inspection, and he gave me a price upfront. However, when it came time to pay, he insisted that I could only pay in cash—claiming it was so I couldn’t dispute the transaction. I asked to see where in writing it stated that only cash was accepted, but he became argumentative instead of resolving the issue. After a long day, I didn’t want to run to an ATM just to get my car, and the situation escalated to the point where I had to involve the police. Even then, he still refused to accept my card. What made matters worse is that, during this exchange, I witnessed a Caucasian woman pay over $700 with her credit card without issue. It was clear that I was being tre
