I first took my car into Trussells last week and they were able to get me in and out in one day. I then needed to get a new tire and they told me it would take a day and when I let them know I needed to go out of town the following day they sent someone out that night to get the parts I needed and got me in the very next morning. Took care of everything and the car is driving like a dream. So fast, friendly and professional. They worked around my schedule and Made my vacation plans possible.

Took my vehicle there for a manifold gasket repair they said it would be a day job. Which is fine picked it up and dropped it off at home. Went to my firestation ( less than 2 miles from my home)and tried to come back and my car starts smoking blue and white smoke from engine bay and coming into the car. I pull over and see a trail a mile long of coolant and oil all over the ground. Very disappointed treated with respect to them and they did the same but then my car breaks down glad I didnt have my kids or wife in the car!

Every pleasant staff. Great customer service and always friendly, smiling and helpful. And I like the fact that they are willing to work with you, in a nice friendly professional manner. Every once have I encountered rudeness or unprofessionalism from this business.

We try to support local, small businesses as often as possible. This was our first and will be our only service from Trussells. This makes us sad, but if we can prevent someone from having the same experience - great.We work extensively on all of our cars for this very reason, but wanted to save some time and effort and decided to pay to have it done. Big mistake.Larry (or the owner) was pretty decent throughout our experience and we told him all of the below - which he seemingly listened, made minor price adjustments ($90ish dollars off of a $1,000 job 👎) for our frustrations and made remarks about improving in these areas.The story: Initially very pleasant and we were thankful we found them. Then... the scheduling and communications of our job became progressively very frustrating. We truly were and continued to try to be patient, but when you end up being run around with broken promises for 3+ weeks with massive inconveniences and having to spend HUNDREDS of dollars to make up for not having your vehicle for a longer than estimated time - you get vocal tones #Karen 😄 This was no special job, but a labor intensive one I guess. We had to bring our car back numerous times because they would tell us bring it in! We will begin work tomorrow! Then... we didnt get to it today or the last few days - do you want to pick it up and bring it back next week? or I guess we need to order parts now and it will be 3 days until we get them even though we knew a week ago what parts would be needed when we did the initial assessment, but no one thought to order them until now 🤦‍♀️. We were initially told it would be a 9 hour job/1.5 days - it took 2.75 weeks for them to even START along with spotty, patronizing communication and multiple excuses for it. Then when I simply called to check on their progress after no communication for 4 days - I get told as a 30+ year old female, Young lady, I dont think you or your husband understand the work that goes into this job and maybe itll be done today... young lady this, sweetie that 🤢 even though you are fully aware THEY were the ones that told you the estimated time it would take 2.75 weeks ago. And when we went to pick up the car, they told us they shouldnt have taken on the job in the first place. Well that makes me confident in your competency and work ethic - I would rather you didnt work on the car at all then, because I dont think Im wrong to be a little unsure you did the best you could to ensure the safety and security of the fix (i.e. did you spit in my drink because youre upset with me now?). Also they completely ruined my boho style seat cover and steering wheel cover that I got for Christmas this year. I guess my fault for not taking them off not knowing they would sit in my car often and touch the steering wheel often with their greasy hands and legs.My guess - no one wanted to do this more labor intensive job and so they kept postponing it and taking other jobs. They seem to be honest 🤞 and kind (as long as youre not frustrated with them) and hopefully they did a decent job. Time will tell. It seems from the reviews that they do great with minor, quick buck jobs. Good for them 👍Unfortunately you have to be a squeaky wheel to get anywhere with businesses these days, because no ones cares about actually doing what is best for the customer or owning up to their incompetencies or mistakes. It is not in our character to be confrontational or rude or not pay full price for service. But being a nurse - Id get fired for this type of work ethic, communication and care or lack there of.You might think this is harsh - Im sorry. I very rarely write bad reviews on a places, because I know theyre doing their best and we all have bad days. Not fully convinced here. This was uncalled for on so many levels and could have been handled much better. I hope they change their ways. Peace.

Worst service in niles couldnt even call me back for a quote and I was a returning customer then quoted me 129 dollars an hour to install shocks then told me they wasnt able to do said work because I had bought the shocks myself.. I went else were.. and had my truck serviced and couldnt be more pleased and it didnt cost me no where near there quoted price..

Needed an alignment, Tony took me back to my house while my van was getting fixed. He came and got me when it was finished. I didnt ask for them to take me, they offered. That is great customer service, I will be back for future service. Thanks guy 👍👍

Ive been going to trussells for years. Larry is always upfront and honest about whats what. I never feel scammed and any time Ive had questions or a dispute hes always done right by me. Service prices are equal to or a little above market, but Id rather pay a little more to a local shop and know Im not getting screwed over. Great people. Theyve worked on literally all my vehicles. Cant rate this place highly enough.

Larry and crew are always honest and reliable when it comes to business and satisfaction! They are fair with their prices and the turn around time is very quick. After going to multiple places around town I was introduced to Trussell’s by my father and have never gone to another place since! I would highly recommend Trussell’s to anyone that is looking to either have work done or get your car checked out. They treat people like family and with respect which is hard to find these days.

September 2019Trussells Auto Care are fast and efficient. They do their best to accommodate emergency situations and your schedule. Extremely helpful and friendly. Very honest and upfront with costs and work needed. They never do more then required. I wont take my vehicles any where else.October 2019Once again they worked around my busy life and I had my car back within hours, not days. They go above and beyond for all their customers. If you need a mechanic and want someone with integrity who will always be honest, look no further. You just found them.

I reached out to Trussells after receiving a high estimate from a competitor. I was pleasantly surprised by their lower prices, incredibly fast turn-a-round for my vehicle repairs, and by the friendliness of the staff. Ill definitely be back. Thank you!

Review №23

I would leave them five stars but I have been in there two times the first time was awesome service very polite, The second time though I provided him the information of what it needed and sat there for two and half just to have the service tech come out and tell me that they do not work on diesels there which would not of been a big deal if they didn’t already know from previous experiences and repairs that I had a diesel..... So that was kind of upsetting but the owner Larry was cool enough to call round local shops to see who would work on diesel trucks, Also Carrie is cool as Hell!! That being said I would recommend them for any auto repairs as long as you don’t need diesel motor repairs lol

Review №34

With a LOF and tire rotation, I would have thought they would take the time to check the tire pressure. Every tire has a different pressure, with one being low. Convenient and reasonably priced otherwise.

Review №35

Everyone I came in contact with was extremely helpful and courteous. They did their best to accommodate me quickly after I had an unexpected breakdown and had my vehicle towed there. I arrived after business hours and was still greeted in the parking lot and allowed to come inside to fill out my paperwork. I felt the labor charges were very reasonable. They even went above and beyond to replace a defective part that was still under warranty from the store I purchased it from originally, at no additional cost. I was treated very well and made to feel as though I had been coming there for years for my automotive needs. Thanks to the wonderful service I received, I will absolutely return to Trussels for my future automotive needs!

Review №49

Very honest and hardworking mechanics. There have been several times that I was quoted a price but turns out he should have quoted more because the price of the part was actually more than originally quoted. Regardless, Larry gave me the quoted price. Although it cost him a couple hundred, I am certain he has earned it back in my personal advertisement and refusal to go anywhere else for any car issues.We have been using Larry as our main mechanic for as long as I can remember. Highly recommend going to Trussells first!

Trussell’s Auto repair was enthusiastically recommended to us when we were ‘stranded ‘ in Niles Michigan in our ‘dead’ vehicle. Knowing Trussell’s was closed I phoned anyway to leave a message that the tow truck would be dropping my vehicle there. However, a man answered the phone. He said he was working catching up on paper work. He took all my information and said they’d get right on the repair on Monday. Thirty minutes later this man shows up where I was waiting for the tow truck. He said he just wanted to ‘make sure I was alright ‘. My vehicle was repaired in a timely manner with several phone calls during the repair period to give me detailed updates on progress. Great people. Great service.
