Thank you for fixing my old green Toyota Corolla super fast when I really needed it badly. I really appreciate a reliable repair and an affordable price too. It s hard to find a trustworthy place and my family and I will be back very, very soon for the rest of what was recommended. I feel they went above and beyond to be helpful.

Came in to get work done. They told me it would be 1100 to fix the car. They do the repairs. I pay $1100 and drive away. Check engine light is still on. They say it's something else they want me to pay them to fix. I don't know if they just picked the most expensive thing to replace or misdiagnosed the car but I will never return.

I went in for an oil change and tire rotation. I had an engine light to check my tire so I asked them if they could inspect my brake pads and anything else my car might need.I requested this service and as a woman, I m used to mechanics trying to upsell me on things I sometimes don t need.When I picked up my car, I braced myself to me bombarded with information.. but, I was told other than the services I requested, there s nothing else my car needs.I appreciated the honesty and also the fact that it s a family owned business.Will definitely return in the future!

They only had one tech, service took longer than it should ve, he broke parts and made me pay for it. Inexperienced service. Overcharged for service not done. And I m still waiting on parts that they said they d replace and it s been a month.

So many issues with my vehicle upon recently moving here. This place was recommended to me by a neighbor that saw my struggles with the mechanic I had. Went to Bandy's and felt comfortable. I feel repair/labor was fairly priced and great customer service!

I ve gone to them 5 times within 30 days simply because they don t know what they re doing.I initially went to them because my engine light popped on. They fixed it, just for my light to pop right back on for the same reason as soon as I left their shop. The issue is simply related to an O2 sensor, yet after 5 visits the problem persists.They guess and assume without confirming the issue, and as a result you end up paying for their trial & error experiments without the problem ever actually being fixed. I was told it was one thing, so I paid for that. The problem persisted a day later. Then I was told it was something else, so I paid for that. The problem persisted 2 days later. Enough is enough. They need to actually work for that Rover & Jaguar that they own, in oppose to just fraudulently ganking folks out of their hard earned money.Nice people, but ultimately a complete waste of time & money.Service: General repairs & maintenance

This is is the second vehicle that I have taken to get fixed from this shop and it is still jerking and cutting off when I drive. They told me they gave me an oil change, but the change oil message is still on the dash. I paid over $1000 for my car to still be broke. Don't go here!Services: Auto brake repair, Oil changeServices: Auto brake repair, Oil change

Love this repair shop. Super quick repairs ( within 2 days) and only 40 dollars diagnostic vs dealership $125 and a week or 2 wait time for parts. I highly recommend Bandy's

I was there after 8 am so it was bad from the start. I showed a coupon of theirs to the guy at the desk. He didn't recognize it. Told me to come back on Tuesday. I asked to make an appointment, nope can't do that. Said they were swamped today. As I drove off I did notice a bay area completely OPEN. So I am not sure what the deal was there. All I wanted to a thourough check of my car not major work done. Don't recommend this location.

Took my car in to Bandys as I have bad pulley. They charged me for a repair in which they didn't fix the issue, and say now it's another pulley. It's the exact same sound and happens exactly in the same manner. I wouldn't waste your time with this shop anymore. I'm not sure if it is under different management, but I would look for a more knowledgeable "mechanic" to take your vehicle in to. I mean how do you not fix an issue, return the car without saying anything, then say its now something else. After spending thousands at this shop over the years, I am convinced they aren't worth their 4 star rating anymore, or even a 1 star, and are not worth spending your hard earned money there. Looking for an honest and trustworthy shop who can actually diagnose, troubleshoot, and fix an issue.Service: General repairs & maintenance

Love that is family owned and ran by women. I feel like they will talk to me honestly about my vehicle and not diminish my opinion because I'm a woman! Oh and they are very reasonably priced based on quotes received from other shops. They care about the consumer. Highly recommend.

I decided to change a wheel bearing myself only to find that the bearing was fused in place. After calling a dozen shops, Bandy answered promptly, saw me within the hour, and helped free the old bearing. The 5 minute job was greeted with great service, friendliness, and great rates. Will definitely be back in the future!Services: General repairs & maintenance, Auto maintenanceServices: General repairs & maintenance, Auto maintenance

Make sure you check your oil after get it changed there. They like to take advantage of the elderly and charge for services they did NOT perform. Nice little racket ripping off old people on oil changes.

Catalytic converter was stolen off my 04 Ford ranger. They replaced it within a day and it was cheaper then anywhere else I called. Friendly and honest.

Best place in town! Trustworthy and honest. I'll go there for everything from now on. And my husband is an ASC certified technician/ diesel tech who doesn't have the time to work on are own cars but was very impressed with their service! Process are more than fair!

So far I've been happy with the service I've recieved here. Unfortunately my car is being difficult, so not all the work I was hoping to have done was able to be done. This is no fault of Bandy's!! The car will be back for some more tweaks in the future.Charles gave me as much time as I needed to talk about my car, ask him questions and his opinions. He didn't force me into getting any work done I did not want, he simply stated categorically what he found.After 5+ years in the area its nice to finally have found an auto facility that isnt out to get me for absolutely everything I have.

These guys are great! Brought my truck in and 20 minutes later they fixed my exhaust leak when other shops wouldn't even touch it. Thanks again, you've earned a new client.

Nice people, but they told me my car had xyz wrong with it and that it would cost a fortune. Took it somewhere else and all of that was not wrong. Also alot cheaper.

I had never used them before and had a terrible grinding noise in the front end of my truck.The automotive place I generally use could not get me for a week.Bandies was able to get me in the next day. They called with an estimate and the estimate was within the average pricing I found on the internet, actually closer to the lower end.I told them to complete the repair. It has been a week the noise is gone.I am happy with the repair and I will use them again.

I originally had my car taken to this place by a tow because my steering wheel started shaking horribly while I was on the highway. So I pulled over and had a tow pick it up and take it to Bandy s. I knew that I needed an oil change and a new o2 sensor, but that didn t have anything to do with why my steering wheel / whole car was shaking the way it was. The people there are really really nice, but they way over charged me just for an oil change and an o2 sensor just to not find out or fix what my car was originally taken there for. :(Service: Oil change

I haven't been here enough to give a great review. I've had issues with my car since repairs but I dont think it's bandys fault. They have great ratings. I just happen to have a really old car that hardly had maintenance done before I purchased it. Very nice and patient shop.

Auto Mechanics - Hard to find a trustworthy one or one that does not have experienced people working. Bandy's is TRUSTWORTHY and have great knowledge through experience with vehicles.I took my truck in to find out about my exhaust that was making noise - they were able to diagnose the issue very quickly with a very fair rate. I recommend Bandys for your Brakes or exhaust (and other issues) FOR SURE. Thanks for proving there are still good Mom and Pop shops out there that wont break it off in you for price!

My pontiac was treated with love and care, even though she's almost 20 years old. They were efficient and timely, explained everything in layman's terms, and answered all of my questions honestly and thoroughly. They treat you like family, and have the best prices I've seen around, to-boot.
