Went in thinking one repair, but at the end of the day they found a much smaller problem. Very happy with the professionalism they showed. Would definitely recommend all of my friends to Boves.

Tony and the guys at Boves Auto Repair are the best! I had to get some extensive work done on my car and mentioned I had to go to a concert later that week. They worked hard and had my car ready so I could go to Lollapalooza when I needed my car back. Even a little earlier than expected! As a woman, its hard to find a good repair shop that isnt trying to rip you off. These guys are fast, friendly, and reasonable! ☺️

Absolutely perfect. Tony is amazing and he saved my life yesterday! Thank you!

Other than great people and service, going to Boves is like in the scene from Goodfellas where they walk through the kitchen and getting a table upfront. Great, nice people. Known Tony for years through others and Vietnam veterans groups. What a guy, what a place. Always satisfied.

I am so impressed with Tony and his business, I feel like I won the lottery. Many auto repair places take advantage of women and charge way more and find all sorts of other problems that may or may not need to be fixed. Not only is Tony one of the nicest people I’ve dealt with, but he is very patient and explains everything in a way I can understand and does only the work that it needs and prices are very fair. They pick up and deliver my car also which is a big help. I trust Tony completely and my vehicle will never go anyplace else. What a great feeling of relief that I have Tony and Bove’s to take car of my car. Thanks Tony

Very Happy with their service and Tony gave me a fair price.

Only shop in Rockford I actually trust to do real work on my cars. Most other places dont really seem to problem solve. These guys will show you pictures and communicate with you, period. Thats 100% more than most will ever do. They will also not just simply replace things and see, like too many shops do.

The customer service and quality of work is bar none. Tony and team go above and beyond to make sure they are explaining everything so you understand and aren’t getting swindled, can’t say enough great things about Bove’s

I can’t say enough good things about Tony and his team. I’ve been going to him for the last two years, and now would not take my car anywhere else. They take care of you like family. He has answered my emails while hiking on vacation as well as at 10 pm. Fair and honest prices, and they do great work. My car is too low to get alignment done at his shop, so he even took it somewhere else for me to get it done while I was getting other things taken care of at his shop. Once again, I can’t recommend him highly enough. I’m so glad to have found Bove’s after moving to the area.

I have been going to Boves for my auto repairs for years and years. Always completely satisfied when i get my vehicles back, always. When family and friends ask where to take their vehicles for repair, I tell them Boves is the place to go.

Every time we go to Boves they are always amazingly professional, and explain everything they have to do to my car! Definitely the first place I call

We can always depend on Boves Auto and Truck Service to do a good job at a reasonable price. They also call if more work is discovered to be sure we want it done.

Great customer service! Quick and reliableThey never cheat you on a price! What they quote you is always what the cost is.

I went to Boves for a prepurchase inspection for a used car I was interested in. WOW is all I can say. The service was excellent. Very thorough inspection report along with supporting pictures allowed me to negotiate a great deal with the owner. The service was $110 (great price) and easily netted me $500 in value during negotiations. 400% return on investment that only took an hour of my time. Cant recommend this team and shop more! Thank you so much!

Very professional and personable. They provided prompt service and were very classy.

Excellent service and explanation of what needs to be done and what was done at a fair rate.

I would like to say thank you to kay for helping me out with my problem on my truck if it wasnt for her and the god lord I wouldnt been able to have my truck repair I would recommend this place to anyone that needs there car worked on thank yall again for the service I will be back

Its off now!!! Its fixed!!!! Thank you Tony!!!!😊

Was sent here by another shop because I was told they specialize in older carsAnd yet I was told by them my car is too old( not that they wouldnt work on it but it would be difficult to find parts)

Boves is a very professional auto repair shop. The work they do here is excellent. Good mechanics that get the job done right the first time. I have had exhaust work, brakes, rotors, wheel bearings, air cond, tires...all done to safely.

I like Boves Auto repair I had work done on my car I was extremely satisfied with the work that was done will definitely use his repair shop if needed again

They do a great job when they work on your car

Time and again I get nothing but courteous, straightforward, and pristine service every time I go to Boves. I love the team just as much as my car does!

Great service up front. Friendly, honest, and fast. We just wanted something specific done, they only did what we asked. Pricing is very reasonable. If i need any car work i cant do myself ill be taking my car here. Its hard to find good help these days.

Great place does good work

One of the best auto repair businesses in the area. Very nice counter help. Clean repair location and quick precise repairs.

Been going to Boves for years. They are family! They do FANTASTIC work and they are not over priced. I am pleased to have them work on my vehicles. I wouldnt change shops for the world! Best in Rockford! Keep up the FANTASTIC work everyone!

If I could give 10 stars to Bove’s auto, I would! Never in my life have I experienced such amazing & honest auto service! Tony has been absolutely outstanding to deal with! We had antifreeze leakage from our daughter’s Jeep. Bove’s did some work & everything seemed to work fine. Until the following day we noticed that antifreeze was leaking again. Bove’s auto worked on it again. And it leaked antifreeze for the third time. Bove’s auto came all the way to our house & picked up our vehicle, left us a car to drive & took time to really figure out what was actually wrong. After 3 days at the shop, Tony’s workers replaced water pump, which seemed to fix the problem. They brought our Jeep back & never charged us anything extra. We couldn’t believe it! And just extremely thankful for such honest & hard work. In this day & time businesses like Bove’s are so hard to find! This one is truly a gem! Thank you, Tony & your crew! We appreciate everything you’ve done!

De five Star Auto repair shop

Best autoshop in town. Honest work & customer friendly every time Ive gone there. Will never take my automobile any place else. Five thumbs up!!!

Good place for car repair

Truck broke down on a Saturday night and I had it towed to Boves. I mistakenly set an appointment to get it fixed for Tuesday morning instead of Monday. When I called Monday morning to see if I could get an earlier time, Tony told me they were already working on it, 24 hours before my set time. Not only did he get right to work on my truck, but he also didnt charge me an arm and a leg for it. He had it up and running by Monday afternoon. I cannot say enough good things about my experience there.

Friendly staff, got my car in and out, same day and it was very affordable!!

Best vehicle repair. They are so warm and friendly. The prices are excellent!!! You wont find a better car repair place.

Excellent did great job great service

Excellent work in a timely manner and at reasonable prices. Friendly staff and quality work.

Took my buick here and got some bad news. But they tell you what u need to prepare for if you should or shouldnt drive your vehicle. Very informational. Everyone I spoke with was nice and friendly. Not to mention my car rides excellent now. 700.00 dollars later. Thanks Boves. See ya soon for that last job!!

The guys who work here are super friendly, always explaining to you the process and what they are doing. Their prices are fair and they always remember your face. :)i will only come here!

Staff very professional, honest compassionate for clients. NO SCAMMERS...very up front about total costs of repair needed, accurate assessment of mechanical problems. Repairs within timelines to get resolved. Garage clean. Happy staff. Good telephone manners. Mechanics,knowledgable,respectful. Owner and mechanics attitudes great....Would refer anyone to Boves Auto Repair without any hesitation.

Took my car in, made noise when I turnedThought it was the tie rods that went bad. These people are very honest and reliable. You can always be assured that they do a good job! They also are very friendly. By the way, it wasnt the tie rods, it was something simple.

Outstanding service as always

Best place in town for auto repair! Ive been coming for 12 years. Prices are always fair! Service is excellent! I love this place! And I wont take my car anywhere else.

They always do exactly what I ask and if they see something that needs attention, they call me and ask if I would like it taken care of immediately or if I would prefer to hold off and plan for another time. I REALLY appreciate the way they care about their customers.

The Bove family has always taken VERY good care of my vehicle. There is NO need to go anywhere else. I have tried many other mechanics and garages in the Rockford area, most of them just lied to me about almost every repair.Then I found this family owned business, - and now I can feel at ease that when there is a car problem.

I had concerns about my 2007 Mini Cooper S (6 speed manual, 76k miles) because the Mini dealer said I would need a new transmission based on the noise I was hearing, at a cost of $5600!I took it to Tony at Boves in Rockford to get a second opinion, and he happily went on a ride with me to hear what I was describing. He assured me that it was normal gear wear sound, and that it would not need to be replaced.Thanks to Tony I saved $5600!

I love Boves! They provide exceptional services. Ranking number one in Rockford Illinois

They know there stuff and are very reasonable with price I wont let many touch my car unless its approved by boves

Very efficient and convenient service. Was able to promptly take care of our needs and was within $2 of what was quoted and within 5 minutes of the expected finish time. I would recommend them in a heartbeat.

Without a doubt the best place to have your car work done in the city of Rockford

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bove’s to anyone. They are one of the rare honest shops that can be counted on to diagnose and fix your problem with no hassle and friendly service. A+ service!

Good guys

Knowledge and experience is critical to running a top rated auto and truck repair shop. Boves is the best!

The only place to bring your car for service. Enough said.

Tony Very good man as Boom Did It Sent me and I am proud to meet you guys and assist me with my familys vehicle.

Very good. Work. Once they fix it there isnt any issues. Wonderful shop.

They did a great job getting my Pontiac going again!

Boves is hands down the best.Back in September 2018, I was looking at an older model Kia minivan at a dealer in Harvard, IL and was given the ok from the dealer to bring it back to Rockford for a pre-purchase inspection. After the pre-purchase inspection, Tony walked me under the van and pointed out to me the few things that needed some work (normal wear and tear). He said I shouldnt pass on this vehicle as it was in excellent used condition, very well maintained and looked new all the way around. My dad was a mechanic and I felt good about this purchase after having it on a lift and seeing it all myself and having someone as honest as Tony confirm what I thought during the drive from Harvard to Rockford.Since then, Boves has been the only shop to do routine maintenance and repairs - all related to normal wear and tear for a 13 year old vehicle - and I have never been disappointed. They overnight parts and get the work done quickly. My most recent repair was a gas tank replacement.They picked up my van yesterday, just before close, and said theyd check it first thing this morning and call me with an update. They called after lunch, not only with an update of what work was needed, but also to say that it was fixed and ready to go.They treat customers vehicles as if they were their own and customers like family. They are family owned and they are honest. Go to them first, or go to them for a second opinion, but trust them to get it done right at a fair price.

Top notch service, friendly staff, recommend 100% to get the job done right the first time.

Excellent service and honest work.
