I (21 year old female) was smelling gas in my car, so brought it into TGK Bloomington to get it checked. They thoroughly checked out everything they could think of and eventually kindly told me that I had a bottle of fuel conditioner spilled in my trunk. They called me promptly, offered cleaning suggestions, and I was back on the road the day after I dropped it off. I would 10/10 recommend this place to all of the other young people in the area looking for a safe, reliable place to take your car.
Best shop I’ve been to hands down!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I’m so thankful for this place and the guys who work here, specifically chad! My family and I were on a long road trip a few days ago when the check engine light in our vehicle happened to turn on while we were passing through Bloomington. My family and I are so grateful that our car started stalling where it did and that TGK was nearby because they truly blessed us that day. We were there before they opened and when they arrived they let us know they were already busy for the day and short staffed but were willing to help us anyways! Chad let me know he would help us in the most efficient way and he absolutely did! From price to the time it took us to get back on the road! He explained the problem and the solution perfectly. He also made sure to have us test drive our vehicle in town before heading back on the road to make sure the problem was fixed. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! If I lived nearby I would only take my vehicles here for any services!!
Just so honest professional and prompt. First time customer and now this is our place to go for all our two vehicles. Very accommodating tech Joe went extra mile to accommodate my car problems. Needed to find new home for our vehicle maintenance due to poor communication at former. We found it at TGK!
Do yourself a favor and only use TGK. Their operations are impeccable from booking, confirmation, auto report sent to you prior to service work and follow up. They are upfront, honest and affordable. I wont ever go anywhere else.
TGK Automotive Specialists of Bloomington is the best place that I know who take super good care of you and your vehicle. They go out of their way to get you an appointment to make sure that your car is looked at and they dont cheat youTGK will tell you whats wrong with it and not lie to you when there is nothing wrong with it theyre honest people and theyre great guys in there that work hard to make sure that youre happy. I wont go anywhere else... come check it out for yourself. Ask for either Pete or Alex.
Took car in for a new clutch, whoever worked on it put an engine support bar across the fenders rather than an area that could support the weight of the engine once the transmission was dropped, the fenders were crushed and bent inwards(see photos).They didn’t tell me about the damage and I drove home, noticed the damage and went back, TGK denied doing it. Clearly done by engine support bar that is used when dropping transmissions.I called them out, their response was that they would call me back later, I wasn’t going to leave without an answer. I waited in the parking lot for a half hour before they came out and admitted to doing the damage and attempting to rectify the situation.They had a body shop bend fenders back in to shape, the fenders still have creases in them.I’m also not happy with their clutch replacement, the car shakes in 1st gear and reverse when taking off.I was offended by their lack of care and response to the situation and the cheap repair, I’m so underwhelmed I have to go elsewhere to get the car looked over again and fixed properly.TGK should focus some of company’s energy on customer service, I will not be going back.
My car has given them lots of issues and they continue to greet us with a smile everytime and they get the job done!
I was super impressed by the report I got on my car. Very useful and something to refer back to.
I’ve never recommended a mechanic before, let alone a shop. These guys are amazing! They have consistently shown high integrity! They’re also good at what they do. I’ve been there way too many times after buying a lemon. They’ve helped me so much! If you want a place you can trust, check them out. My experience has been solely at the shop on South Lindale. I can’t speak for the other TGKs.
Mr. Pete Binde and Alex took the time to put my truck on their machine and came to find no problems what so ever with my truck. Mike and Chad took it for a drive and heard no noises or rattling. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Those guys are absolutely the best!
I got a coupon in the mail for a $19.95 oil change so I thought I would check them out. I was so impressed with the staff, cleanliness of the waiting area, updated technology and they did my oil change and air filter in 30 minutes. When I go to the dealership I’m there for like 2 hours and it’s $60 for the oil change. I’ll be back and hopefully the dog will be there 😃
The guys are great at explaining the work that is needed or recommended. Thanks
Excellent service! I brought my truck in for brakes after a failed attempt by a novice. I explained that I was hoping to get them done by the end of the week since I was heading out of town. They said they could do them that day! I left the truck and had it back within hours with new brakes all around. Now the truck is back to riding the way it should. Their prices were very fair, especially on such short notice, and they were very friendly and accommodating up front. I will absolutely use them again in the future.
Started using TGK Bloomington early last year. So far have had full brakes on two cars, exhaust repair & transmission fix on our classic convertible, and one flat tire repaired.Very happy with all services and found very fair prices. Great job guys! My go to for automotive services!
The whole crew at TGK are personable, trustworthy and knowledgeable. They always take great care of our family vehicles with a smile and fair value!
I have a newer vehicle, but drive a ton. My catalytic converter was bad. They were honest, accommodating and very timely with the repair.The prices are the best around!! I always use TGK repair for my car and even send my children’s car for repair with any issues that they have.Matt is phenomenal to work with. Thank you TGK! You are the only ones that I trust.
Efficient and great to deal with.I will definitely bring my vehicles back there.
This is one of the best car repair shops that I known.
Came in for an oil change and they were able to diagnose that I had a loose tie rod. Very kind and professional. I had some work that I wanted to set up and was able to. I was expecting there more to be wrong with the car, along with needing, what I thought was 4 new tires and I only needed 2 tires. It just showed me that they’re all about fixing what’s wrong and not trying to find extra things to charge me for. I trust that they are not only great mechanics but honest people to boot. 5 stars!!!!⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️
These guys took their time and got my cart running smoothly again. It was my second time getting work done by them. They let me use an AC coupon even though they ended up fixing other stuff too, which saved me $75. I will go back again, I have confidence in them.
Vehicle report sent via text was extremely helpful on making future decisions on my vehicle. Professional and efficient. Courteous and economic. Clean waiting area with nice air conditioning.
Great experience today!
Great staff! Ryan was very friendly and made sure we were comfortable during our wait. In and out service. Fair pricing. Quality service. Overall welcoming environment and knowledgeable staff. I finally found a mechanic that I can trust to be honest and not just trying to up sell me. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
First time customer. Was a great experience and technology that I havent seen in other mechanic shops
Great experience! Definitely will be back!!!
I had the alignment done on my 2006 Honda Pilot. The front-end staff and techs were kind and the customer waiting space was clean. I watched the tech do the alignment for educational purposes, and they seemed knowledgeable in their work. As they concluded the alignment, the tech stated he could not complete the job due to rust, and my back right tire was not aligned. I asked for their recommendation on what to do, and they stated the only effect will be more ware on that tire. I do not think that is an acceptable answer since I went to get a job done, and not much was done to solve the problem they faced with my vehicle. When I went to pay I requested to not pay the full amount since the job was only competed at 75%. They denied my request. I paid the full amount and left.I went to Green Line Auto in St. Paul, and though they faced the problem TGK Automotive faced, the tech was able to complete the job, and now my vehicle is fully aligned.
I’ve been going to TGK for years. I keep coming back because they don’t jerk you around or try to upsell you like a lot of other auto shops, they are very straightforward and honest. Pete is the man, he’s great to work with. I highly recommend TGK Bloomington!
I walked in got an appointment and they did my work on Friday afternoon with all any fuss. Great prices quality work highly recommended
Stop trying to take advantage of older people for work that they dont need at all bunch of hacks you guys are
Professional and the technicians who assisted us explained the issues with our vehicle. Would recommend going here for vehicle needs and maintenance. Thank you again.
Great customer service!!! Friendly and positive energy!
Simply the best place to have your car repair. They know what there doing at fair price an quick on the door..
Wonderful techs! Good price, great workmanship and they stand behind what they do. 5 stars!
The best auto place Ive ever been to. Everyone is so kind and knowlegable. They fixed my car in a timely manner and Pete was so helpful . Happy customer!
I’m always nervous about going to auto repair shops being a woman because I know nothing about cars and feel that women are taken advantage of for this reason. Ryan was excellent! He explained everything in detail so that I understood the issue and what needed to be done. I was very comfortable with the process and paid less than what another auto repair quoted me. I’m bringing my vehicle here forever. Couldn’t be happier.
Great service and they stand behind their work
TGK is very informative and well rounded place.! (Ryan) had great customer service which is always a plus when finding quality service that you’re paying for. I went in for a quick oil change. I highly recommend this place of business
I have a 2005 vehicle so its nearly 13 years old and would not recommend anyone else but TGK in Bloomington . I had a long list of things that my vehicle needed from a previous well-known shop. When the team looked at the list I was given they were more than happy to help and they actually found a very significant issue that needed immediate care, something the previous shop had missed! With the rest of the list still needing to be done they gave me a timeline of what to do and when so I could budget accordingly! They were super friendly and to the point! I appreciate their service and after 13 years I stopped looking for the whole package in a service team because these are my guys!
Great people and service
Awesome staff! Very professional, I am always provided full explanation ofrepair charges along with recommendations and the eta on repair time has been spot on plus if there is a available loaner car its yours which is always nice so I can continue my work day with no interruptions! Ryan is and always has been very nice, knowledgeable and helpful, I have been a customer for over 4 years even longer than that I believe and I have never hesitated to call TGK for my car repair needs Thanks guys!
Theyre customer friendly with very reasonable prices. They are my go to mechanic.
I had a wonderful time at TGK Automotive. Thank you Ryan for taking the time to explain everything to me and keeping my mind at ease. I loved my visit and would recommend this shop to all my friends and family. I look forward to coming again.
Prices are good and they are very respectful and truthful on what is wrong. Overall it was a great experience!
This is the best shop I’ve been to. As a woman I’m always weary about repair shops and being treated fairly. Ryan made my experience seamless and extremely fair. I will only go to this shop from now on.
The auto mechanics at TKG are the best automotive specialists in the Twin Cities. Pete and Alex answer the customer questions professionally. When your service is fixed you can be sure the job is done right at all times. A loaner is given if needed while your vehicle is being repaired at no cost. And a warranty is guaranteed whenTKG provides service with you. TKG is a 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟. Thank you!
Never had a problem
We had a fantastic experience with TGK Automotive today! Chad fit us in when we didnt have an appointment, took care of multiple things that needed attention on our car, he was amazing! He and Jason took great care of us, both were prompt, courteous and super accommodating!

Definitely a 5 star shop! I was recommended to TGK Automotive of Bloomington by a friend and now I will be referring others based on the excellent customer service they provide and the fact that they truly make it a point to care for their customers car needs. Special thank you to Ryan and the rest of the team!
Ryan was super helpful. He truly loves what he’s doing. I didnt feel ripped off by the price and he explained everything in detail to me. I will most certainly be back and refer my family and friends.
TGK is the only repair shop I trust w/my car. They are always accommodating, welcoming and fair. The entire staff is amazing, I had the pleasure of working with Ryan and he was absolutely phenomenal, if anyone is in need of a trustworthy shop look no further!
Great experience all around! Service was quick and easy, Ryan was extremely polite and caring. You can definitely tell he has a ton of experience, he knew exactly what was going on, and relayed all of the information very easily for me to understand, with out making me feel bad for not knowing some of the things he qas talking about. I would definitely send my mom, sister or kids to them and know that they are getting the best service around and arent gonna take advantage of them. Definetly a respectful honest guy. Also noticed their shop space was cleaner than most garages Ive been into, which is always comforting. If there were more stars to give Ryan and the guys would definitely get more.
Ryan and the TGK gang are great. Weve used freeway 66 for our business vehicles for a long time. We were a little worried when they switched hands but have been treated great!
Matt is a great operator that is always honest with me on what I need. Ryan and Alex are the best to make accommodations and point me in the right way every time. Awesome
Loved the service. I get my oil changes done here and they are fast and reasonably priced. All the workers are nice and knowledgeable people. Will continue to get service here!!
Brought my parents car in for a check over. Ryan called me to let me know the brakes needed to be replaced. Was surprised by the price. I expected it to be more. When I picked up the car Ryan was very detailed in going over everything they checked out on the car and what might need to be done down the road. Very good customer service!! Ill definetly be back
Thanks for fitting us in for a repair right away this morning while we were traveling through your city. Prompt, friendly and helpful service!
Absolutely wonderful staff! Very friendly makes you feel comfortable and very trustworthy will definitely let all my friends and family know where they should go to get their cars repaired!!! Thank you Tgk :)
Great customer service and thorough and detailed technicians.
Great service . I would recommend to friends family and my neighbors!
The service I encountered was impeccable! Alex and Ryan made my car a priority and David was efficient with his ability to install spark plugs.
Great customer service, clean waiting area and friendly staff. I will do business here again.
Great shop. Ryan had excellent customer service. Definitely will come back again.
Very knowledgeable, professional and quick. Ryan was great with getting me in and out. Definitely will be returning customer.
After calling 24 other locations to obtain urgent service on my 5th wheel trailer within a day or two notice, Ryan gave us an appointment the very next morning and they fixed the problem that day. We did not have to delay our trip like we would have had to do at other places we called. The service was great and the price was reasonable. They even provided electrical service to power our refrigerator during repair. We later found out that friends of ours have taken their car here for service and repairs for years and have been very satisfied.We highly recommend!
Brought my wifes car in for tires. I spoke with Matt who gave me a quote on a good set of mid-range, all-season tires. Techs that I dealt with were very polite and professional. I left there feeling like a got the best bang for my buck. Will be bringing my Diesel there for service too. Pretty sure I found a place for my vehicles to go when I cant do the work.
We had a wonderful experience. Ryan was so helpful and friendly. I highly recommend!
So friendly and accommodating! Prices are fair an they always explain what they did!
This place is awesome! The people and service are the best in the Twin Cities.
These guys are very nice and you feel good going there, very honest.
Highly recommended. Quick service, friendly staff. Even has a loaner car while yours is being serviced.
Amazing experience, price no one can beat the price, service and professionalism is top quality. Ask for peter the manager, he is honest,genuineAnd transparent,he saved $850 compare to competition, big thanks to David mortinson the mécanique worked on my Jeep, highly recommended, you earned my business for life
Really friendly, easy to work with, quick and quality service. Definitely will keep going back.
They are very professional. They provide quality work and great prices. Highly recommend.
LOVE THEM! They are my go-to shop for honest and quality work! They have great customer service and actually listen to what you want to get done without any pressuring sales pitches! Whenever we have work done it is such a great experience. I recommend everyone to Freeway 66!
This place is friendly with high quality service. This was my first experience with this business. I took a car here for a 100 point inspection before purchasing it. I had my 8 month old son with me. I was a little worried about time waiting with an 8 month old, but they were done with my car in a short period. They gave me a great report on the used car. I walked away with no fear of purchasing the car. I highly recommend this place to everyone who is near by. If it is your first time, watch out for their small sign. I missed it at first, but found it on the second go around.
Great customer service from a local mechanic. Whether you need a tire plugged, oil change or more extensive work, you will be satisfied with the results.
The only place I trust, great customer service. Ryan was extremely helpful! Thank you!!
Took 2 cars here for a pre-purchase inspection. They ended up giving me the second inspection for free and the mechanic came out and spoke with me for 5 minutes or so. Two exceptionally friendly and caring employees. Highly recommend Freeway 66!
TGK of Bloomington is the ONLY place I trust to do repairs and routine maintenance on any of my vehicles. They have always done such an amazing job with what I brought in for service. I can count on them every time to be the best of the best.
Always a great experience when I go here. Ryan is very easy to deal with and the staff is always very helpful.
Just got my a/c fixed they are amazing at customer service in love this place
Dave and his guys are simply the best! Many times I have brought my car to them and they have given me great service for a fair price. I live in Chanhassen and make the drive when needed because I trust them and they treat me like a person, not a female. I know many people who take their cars to Freeway 66. I would recommend them to everyone!
Best customer service in the whole city of Bloomington! Great staff that are knowledgeable and friendly!
I always get great service here. The guys are very professional. 👌
I love this shop! Easy to work with, affordable and super knowledgeable.
Honest, trustworthy, great price!! We will be bringing all our cars here from now on!
We came to Minneapolis on vacation from Missouri. Started hearing a noise and took our car to 2 mechanics who said it would be over a day to diagnose the issue. After Discount Tire said it wasnt a tire issue, they referred us here. Ryan got our car looked at within an hour. He got the problem cleared through warranty and fixed within another hour. These guys saved us SO much money so we didnt have to Uber around a city where we dont know anyone.
I was given a estimate number of items that need to be fixed on the vehicle and all were fixed in a timely fashion. There was no pressure to get the repairs done at all!!!
Amazing garage. Ryan is fantastic and their services are awesome.
Our boat trailer broke down and Bryant stayed late to help us get back on the road. Thanks to Pete for getting us what we needed!
Ryan is very customer service oriented, knowledgable and efficent! Keep up the great work
Bryant was super helpful! Would definitely recommend
They will work on any type of vehicle, quality work
They approach your car as if it was theirs. Great mechanics, the only place I’m willing to bring my car.
These guys are great. I feel like they’re the only honest mechanics in town. The Stealership told me I needed an alignment badly, so I took it here and they told me I did NOT need an alignment. The TGK team said it was off by less than 1/100th of a degree. By not doing a job I didn’t need, they’ve earned my business for routine work I do need.
A place to get good service and a quick oil change for the car. The staff was friendly and helpful.
