I stopped at the garage on my way home tonight because I had a metal panel/cover dragging. They pulled my car in, pulled the piece off and refused to accept payment. This made my day, thank you so much!

John was really friendly and professional switched my filter/changed my oil at a really reasonable price and accurately diagnosed a transmission problem (even went the extra mile to show me the gross filter). He informed me that my had a service bulletin on the issue he diagnosed and probably saved me tons of money by telling me to call Toyota first helpful, knowledgeable guy. They definitely found a new customer! Dropped my car off in the morning and had it back by the afternoon.Services: Air & cabin filter replacement, Oil change

My son had his engine light on his car. He is still in high school and has to pay for his own repairs so we wanted to go to a place that was reliable and honest. My neighbor recommended this place. They explained up front the ranging cost to check and engine light and explained they could run the code for us at no charge and if there was a problem we could schedule an appointment later in the week. My son went to the garage and it turned out it was just that he was not tightening his gas cap. They reset his engine light and did not charge us anything. I REALLY appreciate this because I used to work at an automotive dealership and the service department there use to charge their hourly rate for this service which was $65 back in 2001....it is now $95. Thank you for being honest and reliable and taking care of your customers. I will definitely return for our service repairs in the future.

I had a great experience with EE Thomas garage. Very friendly service. My car was fixed properly. They called me with the price to fix it upfront. No surprises. Highly recommended!

Showed up with the valve stem on my tire broken at the end of a bitterly cold day and they didn't hesitate to help and only charged five bucks. Grateful.

The Best!2003 Honda Pilot, 115K miles.Replaced Timing Belt, Water Pump, Cam and Crank Seals, Motor Mount, idler pulley, accessory belts etc.Basically... the works and more for the 105,000 mile recommended service interval. Pricing was well below the cost of the dealer, and the little extra things they did were greatly appreciated!I'm writing this 3 months after the work was done...the vehicle is running like new. We were going to sell it in this year...but now we'll hang on to it, and visit EE Thomas for all our service needs.I can't thank Johnny and his crew enough for their professional and honest work!Kevin SharpeNew Berlin, IL8/13/2015Dodge Ram Pickup.Installed my new fuel pump and fuel tank hanger straps...and a front shock that had a frozen lower mounting bolt.Dropped the truck off at 8AM...They called me at 2PM to tell me the work was done!The good news...the labor cost was LESS than I had agreed to pay when I made the appointment!Everything worked out fine. No more engine hesitation, noticeable difference in front end handling over bumps, and they apparently calibrated the dash gas gauge...which had been incorrect forever.I like these guys, and more importantly, I trust them!

I have had a few vehicles worked on here a 05 Chevy Silverado 2500 hd brake booster I ve had a 09 impala sway bar done and on two different occasions I ve had my 04 mercury Grand marquis worked on first time round both front shocks second time intake manifold rear diff fluid trans service and a bunch of other little things like cleaning battery terminals etc.and I can say these people are trustworthy honest with their diagnosis and take care of your car just like you would I would never go anywhere else if I had one negative is that they are always busy but well worth the wait to get a quality repair

Figured out what was wrong with my car in barely a day. Didn t go through with the repair as the car wasn t worth the money. Didn t even get charged for diagnostics, Great professional guys.
