Professional and friendly the accommodating staff fixed our flat tire and got us back on the road quickly. Thanks!
Great service every time! Staff are exceptionally detail oriented and honest. Would highly recommend!
Great garage. Very honest. Will not try to run up a bill on you. Run by a professional team thats been in business for many years.
This place is absolutely INCREDIBLE. If you’re looking for a shop this is the only place to go. Everybody was very professional and the work is A+. Pricing is great and extremely fair. I’ve found my new spot.
The man who helped me was nice. But they didn’t patch my tire correctly. I went to discount tire the following day because my tire was flat the next morning, and they told me the patch that was put in wasn’t correct. I also did not appreciate that nobody was wearing masks. Workers nor customers. Discount tire on pilot knob was professional and honest. I bought 4 tires $200 cheaper than this place. Exact same tire/specs.
Very friendly reasonably priced quick service
19 Subaru STI. Called last minute. They were able to squeeze me in. Fast and affordable. Very much thank you to the team.
I could say 100 great things about these guys, but the reason Ill keep going back is because theyre HONEST, their pricing is very fair, and they stand behind their work.Couldnt ask for anymore.10/10 would recommend
Great bunch of guys. Very friendly. Good prices.
Another very pleasant experience. Service is prompt and friendly. They do great work and stand behind it.
Dave and his team went above and beyond to repair not only my car but also my driving situation. Their big business knowledge yet small family business care is the best combination in the automotive care business. I would highly recommend using their service in your next time of need!
Went in for a stud replacement. Got the job done day of. It was significantly quicker and cheaper than expected and will definitely be back with any auto repairs I need in the future. Very much hassle free which was a breath of fresh air.
Horrible never take your car here.
I came in last minute and Alex answered the phone, he was super straightforward and got back to you with questions really quick and the service was awesome.Dave worked on my car and there were problems piling up but he was willing to go pick up parts at other places just so I could get to my destination quickly. Very empathetic and a comfortable place.Thank you to Walstad for a great experience!
Amazing customer service!! They definitely gained my loyalty. I never visited a mechanic shop where the mechanic introduce themselves with a handshake. Showed up with an issue in the car and left without any car problems. It’s a family owned business with high service standards. That’s just the icing on the cake!
Today was my first time going to Walstad Automotive and I am happy to say I will be coming back!Although I only went for an oil change, they had me in and out within a half an hour, even with 4 more cars in the garage! Plus, the price was great, especially for such a high mileage car! Mechanic looked over my car and told me what I should focus on next (just as check-up). I feel like they are very fair, trustworthy, and knowledgeable.
I love Walstad. I been going here for 8 years now and they always have a fix for my car, no matter the condition. Reasonable prices, knowledgeable staff
Great repair shop! They are more than fair on their prices and go out of their way to save you money. Its the only place Ill go for anything my car needs. Theyre honest and will fix your car quickly. They saved me over!$1400 on my last visit alone ! Id recommend them to anyone
Ive had excellent experiences with Walstads. I took my car in because the panic alarm was constantly going off for no reason. I brought it in at 5pm after work, knowing they would close soon, but they said they would still take a look and they did. They mentioned that I should probably replace both my rear and one of my front wheel bearings, which I expected because my vehicle is a bit older. I brought it in the next day for it all to be fixed. I got a call later in the afternoon and the mechanic told me he was mistaken in his estimate. He found that my vehicle was low in rear differential fluid and the rear wheel bearings were just fine, but instead both of the front wheel bearings needed to be replaced. This saved me about $300 from the original quote, which is great! Several weeks later my car was making some noise so I brought it back. They said its common for brake pad clips to come loose after replacing wheel bearings, and they adjusted them for free. This is by far the best services Ive ever had from an auto repair shop, and I highly recommend them!
Excellent service! Im never afraid Ill have to come back because the issue wasnt resolved. Timely, honest, and priced right!
Great service. The guy who helped me was such amazing and professional guy.
They helped me connect with a tow company at 4:30 on a Friday evening, and were nice enough to give me a loaner car for the weekend since they wouldnt be able to work on my car till Monday morning.
Great service. The guy who helped me was such amazing and professional guy! Never showed any sign of rudeness. Kudos!
Amazing friendly service! From standard oil changes to serious car repair, they will get the job done right! No pressure to fix other things or making you pay outrageous prices. I will only bring my car here!
Extremely friendly! Ben went above and beyond to help me fix my stubborn flat tire. Dan knowing I was headed out of town ensured my struts were fixed with impeccable timing. I appreciate their honesty without gouging!
Great body work and painting. Highly skilled technicians make this possible
I had an emergency repair needed after running over some debris. Not only did they get me in right away but fixed the problem at no charge! Both the gentlemen that worked with me were very open and honest about what was needed and allowed me to see the issue first hand. If this is how they treat their clients on a regular basis...I highly recommend them.Thanks!
I’ve been to a lot of auto shops, and Walstad Auto is the best. Whether I need an oil change or help with a larger issue, I bring my car to Walstad’s. I love that they’re straight forward, and know that everything will be taken care of professionally.
I had a belt fray on my car on the highway near Walstad Auto. After speaking with them, they were able to look into the issue, get a part, suggest how I may be able to get reimbursed from the dealership if its under warranty, and get me back on the road in about an hour. I was very pleased and will definitely bring cars back there in the future.
Walstads is hands down the best place around. They are so friendly and welcoming and most of all trustworthy. My family has been coming here for years and we have had nothing but excellent experiences. We wont go anywhere else. Thanks for all you guys do.
This is the place to go and get your vehicle back in shape! The staff there are the best! They fairly charge their services.
Awesome team, FINALLY a place I can trust!
Dave Walstad is helpful, honest, and goes out of his way to save us money. He is willing to work with us to get used parts rather than new when possible/plausible. We became dedicated customers in 1989 when we first got married. My husband had a rattling in his car that his parents had spent $250 to fix with no improvement. Dave found a loose screw somewhere in the exhaust and charged us only $8 to fix it! We have been taking all our cars to him ever since. I trust Dave. And if he fixes something but you find an issue later, just take it back and he will make it right. I wouldnt go anywhere else.
Walstads was a lifesaver this week. I called on Sunday when they were closed with a dead car, the owner answered and scheduled me the next day. They diagnosed and fixed it in two days. Everyone was very kind and helpful.
I travel alot! About 150k miles a year. I used to work near them, but now I drive an hour to have my vehicles repaired because its worth the time to feel secure in the work. Ive had them do multiple repairs on several vehicles. Everyone was done quickly & accurately. A++++ Auto Repair!!!
I brought my car here for a used car inspection and they were very helpful and told me everything that needed to be done. They broke it down into everything that needed to be done right away and what could wait for another time.I was very please with there customer service and how they treated me even though it was my first time there. I would recommend them to my friends and family.Very friendly and reasonable place.I will be going back there thats for sure.
Friendly and honest, all around great team.
Ive been coming to Walstad for around 10 years. I have always had the best service from the friendly, knowledgeable staff. Sometimes its difficult to find a repair shop that you can trust. I trust Walstad Automotive to give me efficient and prompt service on whatever my car may need at the time.In one instance, I had to pick up some friends from the airport. Naturally, my car decided this was a good time to throw the serpentine belt. I nursed the car to Walstads and explained my situation. Dave got my car right in without an appointment. The problem was fixed in a jiffy and I made it to the airport on time.While I always schedule my service appointments ahead of time, the above proves to me that Walstad Automotive is not just concerned with vehicles, but also the people who drive them. They take time to explain what theyre doing.Theres always a fresh pot of coffee and cold drinks available!You cant do any better for automotive service than Walstad Automotive.Greg Lobeck
The most honest and dependable mechanics I know. Always give it to you straight. Always do quality work. Always give you a fair price.
Stopped in for an oil change and had them check for a possible front seal leak. They found a loose screw that leaked oil on the front of the engine. Way cheaper than front main seal replacement. Also found oil drain plug was missing washer that previous oil change place did not notice. Then to top it off, they noticed tread difference between front and rear tires was 4/32. I put new tires on front (11/32) and thought rear tires were ok (7/32). They suggested I check with a dealer and I found out that allowed tolerance is only 2 or 3/32 difference with 4 wheel drive. That probably saved my differential. Bottom line is they are very competent and professional. I highly recommend Walstad for anyone looking for a good mechanic shop they can trust.
Poor initial customer contact.I called to schedule a time to bring in my car to have them check the error code when my check engine light came on. I was told that I would need to drop off the car and it would be added to the line of other cars already dropped off. I am not in a position to be without my car. I tried to schedule a time - or at least pick a day when I could drop it off to ensure I would be first in line. I was told that there was no way I could do that. I had to either drop it off overnight (and even then there was no guarantee) or wait until other cars that had been dropped off over night were serviced. I was not happy with this and decided to find a place where they were able to schedule a time to read the error.I spent almost $5000.00 in the past couple years here to get this car repaired, Im somewhat annoyed that they would not even work with me to get the car in without having to leave it for some undetermined amount of time.
I always receive excellent service from Walstad Automotive. Dave Walstad and his staff listen to me describe my cars problems and translate it nicely into automotive speak which means my problem gets fixed. The service is swift and the prices are right. I heartily recommend Walstad Automotive to my neighbors and friends.
Ive been taking my vehicles to Walstads for 20 years and they are the best. The work is superior and prices are very reasonable. My adult daughter continues to take her car to Walstads even though she lives 40 miles away. This is a place I trust.
New customer. Very pleased with fast friendly service. Will be our car care center for whole family from now on.
Great people and great prices.
Brought my truck here and they took care of everything. Nice people. Brought my car in after. This will be where i take my vehicles from now on
I have been bringing my vehicles to Ben at Walstad’s since I could drive and they have always taken good care of them. Recently I purchased a pre-owned vehicle in amazing condition according to an inspection (2011 Hyundai Sonata). I had only made two payments when it broke down in which I had it towed to Walstad’s who informed me after running a diagnostic on the broken vehicle that there was a recall on my engine. They were able to get it towed to Hyundai at no cost to me, unfortunately the tow driver brought it to the wrong Hyundai dealer in which caused much confusion, including pointing fingers at Walstads and denying me the recall repairs. It was a total nightmare because of tow drivers and Hyundai’s unprofessionalism. Dave went down to Hyundai immediately after I had contacted them of the issue. Dave was able to have it towed again at no cost to me to the correct location and helped resolve the issue with Hyundai, in which I have been told will honor the warranty and repair the vehicle at no cost including providing me with a free rental. Dave and Ben are the best and do yourself a favor, AVOID HYUNDAI!
They are awesome!
This is the place to go to get your vehicle back in shape! Ben and Dave are the best! Not cheap, but fair.
Went in for a leaky transfer case, left two days later with a new - reman transfer case.Work is warrantied, they seem honest enough in the estimate and service.Seems like some guys just trying to make an honest living.
Ive been coming here for over 14 years. They are excellent, honest and care that you are driving a safe vehicle.
Honest - This is very hard to find.They have worked on my cars for over 15 years.
Our company uses them for all our commercial vehicles. They are honest and do good work.
I have been going to Walstads for over 20 years as I grew up in the Eagan area. I now live in Uptown, but still take my car to Walstads because I trust them. They are always 100% honest, which to me, is the most important characteristic of any auto repair shop. I just dont trust anyone else with my car.Dave and Ben are fantastic and it seems like they have been working on cars forever. Whether you are new to the area or looking for a new auto repair business, Walstads is a great option.
My regular garage. Very happy with service. Thank you, Walstad.
Quick service with very overpriced parts, charged me more than double what parts cost from dealer because they already had my car and I couldnt drive it anywhere else
They tend to up sell you and also try to sell part saying u need the part really could die without the time management or coming back 3 times to replace a start then they mess up your dash light....family own kinda have deals but there diagnoses is 100 no matter what; a lot for inperment.
Fair, competent service!
Excellent work and customer service.
Excellent service
