Good work, great price, no nonsense. If every repair shop worked like this the entire industry would have a much better reputation! Always gets me back on the road fast with no fuss.

Owner and his manager are really cool guys, and know their stuff up & down & inside out.Super fast, though you might want to call ahead; as with any good business they CAN be busy.On top of all that they also have fair pricing. I personally make a little extra drive to bring my vehicles to them. I even had one vehicle towed over 30 miles to bring to them.A trusted automotive shop is one of the most valuable things one can have.

Tried Eds AA for the first time to change cars headlight bulbs on a friends recommendation. Was surprised that Ed was quick to take us in and got the job done expeditiously. The cost was probably cheaper than what I would have incurred if I bought the bulbs and was able to change the bulbs myself. Amazing positive experience.

I was recommended by a friend and I am super happy and very grateful for their service. Ed was super nice and very helpful with a tire lock issue I was having. I will definitely be using them again and referring him out. Thank you again Ed and staff for all your help. 😊

Honest and efficient. Jason has been my mechanic for years and years, never had a single issue with any work Ive ever had done here.

This place is great! They are fast, honest and reliable.One thing to note - Google Maps will NOT get you there! Youll have to read a map the old fashion way in order to find it. Best bet is to go north on Vermont from Illinois Ave - its at the end of Vermont on the east side of the street. I highly recommend Eds Affordable for any major or minor repairs to your vehicle!

Literally the only person I trust to work on my car. I appreciate that he explains something if Im unclear. Hell tell me if theres something that needs to be done soon so I can budget. The name may also imply it but theyll save you a buck, saved me having to replace a whole exhaust system, as a college student, that matters!

Ive been going to Eds for 15 years and he has worked on all my cars from my 95 Toyota Corolla to my current car which is a 2011 Acura TL. Plus he has also worked on my Moms car. Another thing is that he lets you bring in your own parts and gets your car fixed in a very decent time. Thx again for the Service over the Years.

Ed went above and beyond trying to diagnose a creak in my car. Told me everything he did as well as how he could exactly hear the issue I was hearing. Unfortunately couldnt pinpoint one part that was worn enough to cause the issue and said they had enough life in them not to warrant fixing so he gave me my car back completely free of charge. No acceptance of tip or anything so a 5 star review is the least I could do!

All my maintenance is done by Eds. Never had a problem going here as a female and thinking they will take advantage. Honest all the way around

My car was dropped off this morning at 6:30 AM via tow. After great customer service and a helping hand and great prices, my car was back up and running by 8:15am (less than 20 minutes after they open). I cant thank you all enough for the help and customer service you showed me and my father. When my car was on a tow truck at 6:30am I never would have guessed I would be back on the road that same morning, but again, because of these guys it was all possible. Thank you again and Im glad I found an excellent auto shop to always take my car to.

They should change their name to include honest. We have great faith that this team is honest as well as truly affordable. They do not over charge for their work. The team is fair and honest.

I have had our family and business vehicles serviced from Eds for over 15 years. The greatest part of doing business with Ed and his staff is their straight forward approach, no candy coating diagnosing problems and setting your expectation for what it is going to cost. Ed, Patty and the rest of the crew are top notch, down to earth, professionals. I know our cost of ownership on vehicles has been kept at a minimum with Eds Affordable.

Review №26

I needed to rent a truck to sort through boxes and hold them overnight. Ed, a very down-to-earth person, listened to the three scenarios of rental Id been contemplating, and then came up with a fourth scenario that fit my need. The rental of the U-Haul ended up costing me a little more than I expected (but less than it would have elsewhere), and I got a great deal on the additional time. The home purging has been going well because of this, and Im confident Ill return to Eds in future.

My family has been coming here for years. I continue to go there, even though I live 20 miles away now. I trust them to do a good job and to not invent expensive problems, like the chain places sometimes do.
