At Remington Automotive they not only take care of your car but also protect your wallet.I asked for an appraisal of 6 services which were recommended by a dealer. To my surprise Remington Automotive was willing to do all of them for 50% of the dealers request. My bewilderment was even bigger when I saw the final charge amounted to only 8% of the initial dealer request.At Remington Automotive they checked if all 6 services were necessary at this point. After examining fluids and spark plugs in my car they advised me to do only 2 out of 6 recommended by the dealer.So, if you want to have good service and be sure your money is spent only on needed services then I advise everyone to visit Remington Automotive. They are about integrity which is rare to find anymore - honest, professional and cost conscious.
I brought in our Lexus truck after being quoted an outrages price from the dealer to fix. We just moved here so I didnt have a mechanic. I went on fb and everyone in the area recommended Remington. I went in and not only were they less expensive, but they repaired a bunch of things that made sense to repair being they were taking apart the top end of the engine anyway. Still cheaper than the dealer. They had great communication and even offered me a laoner. These are my guys now. Check them out if u need a trustworthy mechanic.
Awesome place and they go out of their way to make sure the vehicle is fixed properly.
I called Remington in hopes they could help me with a custom exhaust project I envisioned for my 2019 Acura. Riley and Steve were awesome in making my vision come to life, exactly how I wanted it. Awesome work and customer service. Ill be back for future needs.
Reilly is the bestIve been going there for over 20 years
Riley and his team are a class act. Honest guys that will save you money and not sell you blinker fluid. Highly recommend.
Remington Automotive exceeded my expectations by far (and my expectations were already high enough based on the other reviews here :)) Service was fast and efficient, Steve was professional and friendly, price was unbeatable. The minute you walk that door, you feel you can trust those people. I hope I wouldnt have to come back soon, but when I have to, I would know my car is in good hands.
Reliable honest people. Remington Automotive has been servicing my vehicles for 35 years. They are thorough and strive to get the most repair for your budget. You wont find a more friendly upstanding automotive shop
They always do a great job. Honest and professional service. They were busy but they still took the time to change my license plates today. Previously, they fixed my catalytic converter on my Jeep and replaced brakes and changed my battery, rotated my tires, etc. Highly recommend!
My car is17 years old and I’m not ready to let it go. Remington Auto has been AMAZING when repairs are needed. They are honest and trustworthy which is so important to me. I won’t go anywhere else!
@Gerrit Williams... I am the manager of Remington Automotive and we strive to wear our masks as much as possilble. Also Im not sure when you were in the shop.... I dont have you name in my system.... Thanks for the needless bad review. Have a Great day.
Honest & hard-working folks. Gave me a courtesy vehicle and kept me in the loop throughout the diagnosis and repair.I will be back.Thank you Riley!
They are honest, fair priced, they get the job done efficiently, give me estimates for the work they think I need, and will explain it and SHOW ME while my car is on the rack, where the problems are. I trust them.
Riley, Roger and their team are great to work with. Theyre great at what they do. They are honest and fair and I highly recommend them.
My family has been trusting our cars with Remington for over 18 years. They provide exceptional service, and treat everyone like family. I cannot say enough good things about Remington Automotive! Fairly priced, if you dont believe me, go get an oil change there! We all should support local businesses, and Remington deserves our support because they support us with fair pricing and timely service!
Remington is always fast, reliable, and fairly priced. They always give the straight story on what you need and what you might need coming up without the high pressure sales. I bring all of my cars here.
Always honest and straightforward with their recommendations. They wont sell you on what you dont need, but they will be clear about what you do need. They do quality work.
Looking for an automotive shop that guarantees their work and treats you like Family? Head over to Remington Automotive! They can fix all makes and models of cars! Also every thing that could go wrong with your car, truck or SUV can be fixed here. Besides great friendly service, their prices cant be beat!!! If your vehicle needs repairs that will take awhile to fix...No worries! Remington Automotive has loaner cars for people who have to leave their car there. So skip worrying about missing work due to car troubles. I suggest calling ahead if youll need a loaner car, this way your garunteed to have a loaner waiting for you. So what are you waiting for? Car troubles 😣, go to Remington Automotive, you wont bring your car anywhere else!👍🏻😁
Remington has come through for me twice now. Most recently by fixing an air conditioning issue. I had it fixed by my dealer but the issue still occurred. Remington ACTUALLY fixed it - in 1/3 of the time and for 1/2 of what the dealer charged. Fast, professional, and effective service. Highly recommended!
We have gone to Remington Auto for years. They have always been fair and honest when it comes to necessary repairs and maintenance. Yesterday I went to see them because my charge card got lodge in the console compartment. One of the guys took my car immediately and 15 minutes later had the charge card dislodged at no cost!
I saw the other reviews left here and feel confused... As far as I can tell, Remington is a small shop that offers a refreshing oasis in the business of car care. I have found them to be very honest. Their approach to business is geared toward doing well consistently and for the long run. I would be willing to pay more for such service that gave me peace of mind that I will not be taken advantage of. And yet, the funny thing is, at Remington you end up paying less than elsewhere and you get the peace of mind on top of it. Did I mention that I also appreciate tremendously the personal demeanor of the owner (Brad), Roger and all the mechanics/technicians there?So, whats the deal with some of the negative reviews that I saw here? I must be living on a different planet from those reviewers, or Remington must have a double personality. Having said that, I hope that my assessment of Remington is a correct reading of how they truly feel about their customers and their business and it is not simply a behavior forced by competition reasons alone. It makes for a better quality of life...
Great fair place. Oil changes rock here. Keep up the good job
1st time there and, Was very nice no pressure to make a appt. Showed me what was wrong. And gave me prices.
I checked my truck in at around 8:30 and I got a call a few hours later for pick up. They fixed a bad repair done by Fair Muffler. Excellent work, my truck drives great! No more noise and they were also able to fit in an oil change. Highly recommend
Not following CDC guidelines and wearing masks around customers.
The owner is gruff, but friendly. The service with coupon was cheap and fast. The owner researched the best replacement tires for my make and model, and printed out an information sheet from the manufacturer. He offered the sale and service, but there was no pushing whatsoever. I would definetely go back for any future service.
I like them.Its tough to unequivocally recommend something outside ones expertise, but they seem like a good, honest car shop, in a sea of players. My dad used to go here a good long while back when their name was different, and now my mom is a regular customer, and I use them after I got tired of paying premiums to my original dealer which likes to dramatize everything and overcharge by double... I cant make guarantees, but Remington will probably give it you straight, and will charge you a pretty fair price. Reliable, conscientious. Will want you to come back by proving themselves instead of by pressuring you. I hope they keep this going for a long, long time.
Our family has been going here for years. They know our vehicles, educate us on what is happening and what needs to be done, and always charge an extremely fair price. I specifically drive here from the city because I trust them completely based on our entire history there.
Will be my mechanic for life. 100% trust these guys all the way around. Honestly prefer remington over my cars manufacturer for service work!!!
99.9 % of our customers are very satisfied! We have won the daily herald readers choice award,have an A+ B.B.B. rating,need I say more?the petty comments you read here are mostly from the"Casey camp"- more proof that google reviews are useless....come and make your own decision, no other shop offers better price and service than Remington automotive!
Brought my cars here for years. Guys are friendly and Im always out pretty fast (I do always call first to get an accurate estimate on how busy they are). My cars are always treated well and issues are resolved quickly. Not to mention, the best deal in town on a semisynthetic oil change!
Remington always takes care of us and has a family feel. Theyre always extremely fair and knowledgeable about any problems Ive ever had. My entire family goes there and I recommend them to all my friends as well. I wouldnt take my car anywhere else.
I grew up with a Dad that owned a gas/service station so Im just a little picky about auto repair. I have been totally disillusioned in the past with another Lake Zurich repair shop but then we found Remington. This is the second time weve brought one of our cars in and the second time that we had a great experience. They are knowledgeable, friendly, honest and they dont try and sell you repairs for things that arent broken. Also, their prices are amazing! Both times weve been in, the prices have been significantly lower than we expected. I would strongly recommend Remington Automotive!
Remington just performed a muffler replacement. Job was done quickly and professionally at a competitive price. I will definitely see them again for future work.
I have been to a few auto shops in town. Remington has been the most competitive in terms of price, the most timely and I get the best results. This is my go to shop
Like most other reviews, I like Remington too and use them exclusively to maintain and repair my vehicles. They give honest evaluations of repairs your car needs and have the best prices.
I love going here when my car has issues. They do amazing work and the staff is always willing to help you out.
Great service and support for my needs.
I thought I had a leak in the exhaust system. I could hear it. I brought my car in to Remington. they put it on the hoist and saw two corroded linkages. They recommended simply fixing the pipes by welding in two new pieces. They could have taken advantage of me by telling me I needed an exhaust system, but they were honest and advised me to do just what was necessary. I highly recommend them.
Always friendly and have never had any issues here. Ive always gotten in and out pretty quickly but showing up right when they open helps.
I cant recommend these guys enough! I have been going there since the change over, Roger and Brad are always willing to help and they do great work for a fair price!
Personal service - they know their customers and their cars
I have been going to Remington Automotive for about 5 years now. Top notch service on all of the vehicles I have brought in 100% of the time. If you want it done right the first time, all of the time, this is the place for you !
They are fast. And nice people
These guys are great! Always honest and straightforward
They pulled the old bait and switch on me.Needed a new Cat conv. Negotiated a quote and let me know it was a NEW part. Said I wouldnt need any welding, and my emission light should be working like new.I picked up my car and looked under and EVERY piece of the cat was welded.When I asked for explanation they changed their story and tried to tell me that nothing was welded. The owner put the blame back on me?? The bottom line was the part I received was not the part quoted. My check engine light is still on, and they wanted me to bring it in for another evaluation. The problem is they were supposed to do all this the first time.FIND SOMEONE ELSE. THEY ARE NOT HONEST, AND REALLY JUST DONT CARE.I would not recommend them to anyone. I have buyers remorse!
Remington is a wonderfully honest and trustworthy.
Brought my car in after botching my own self repair. They were not incredibly cheap but they were ectremely reasonable and corrected what I did wrong. they told me what i oviusly didnt do and what I did do correct. my car is in much better shape because of them. I cant wait for the next issue to arise so that I can have them fix it. (not really, but you know what I mean). They were honest straight forward and had great manners to not belittle my failure. Tho i am sure they were shaking their heads at my attempt, i would have. all in all I will be back there with my current car and all my future cars. Thank you guys.
Good price helpful. I will go back again
Great service great pricing
Good mechanics and very fair price
Honest and professional people.
Fair prices and good workmanship.
Only place I trust to work on my vehicles
Remington Auto does bad work, their prices are too high and the owner, Brad Remington is a moron.
Easy, fast and reliable
Awesome
Fast, friendly service
