They ve worked on my car before and they ve done great work however, a few days ago, I dropped it off for a steering rack and tie rods When I picked the car up, I noticed there was a scratch on it. I look at my dash cam footage, and I see when they were pulling it into the shop. They backed it into something And Makes a big deal of it and pays me a fraction of what it cost to fix. Then he goes out into the shop and starts cussing about me and talking about me behind my back And yelling about how I m scamming him And that there was nothing that happened. Even after I showed him the video, he still denies it. Dave, the owner is who said all this is a terrible businessman and he doesn t admit when he s wrong or when his company damaged other peoples property. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR CAR DAMAGED!

Called in about getting my cracked radiator fixed and mike had me come in to the shop to show me everything, in person, that s wrong with my vehicle. He showed me what I needed fixed to get my car safely back on the road. He was open about prices and procedures and kind the whole time! Really appreciate it! I got my radiator fixed as well as a crack in my gas tank!

I took my 2005 Impala in for a diagnostics of my air condition system because it wasnt working. Mr. David McCall had me in and out in less than an hour and the air was very cold. He explained in full detail what the problem was and potential future problems. He was very nice and courteous and the facility was clean and well organized. The price was reasonable and I recommed everyone take their vehicle there for repairs. The only thing he doesnt do is wheel alignments so you will have to find that on your own. I plan to give Mr Dave more work and I highly recommend him to everyone.Kevin C.

These people are amazing! I have used their services several times and have always been more than satisfied. Rhonda always works hard to fit me in when I need them. And she is always professional, yet extremely personable. Dave is an exception mechanic who does exceptional work. I am a widowed senior female who knows nothing about cars, and I know I have never been taken advantage of when they have repaired my car. Their prices are very reasonable and their work guaranteed. I wouldn't even think of taking my car anywhere else. I have recommended them to several others .

Took a car I bought up there, they told me it was this and that, spent $3000 to have them fix it, get it back with them saying it needed an exhaust plenum, abotger 1500, took it to another shop, cracked head, that wasnt the problem before. Can't prove they did it, but at the very least, they wasted my time and money.

I have a 2008 Saturn which I use for a work car. It had 111,000 miles on it when the front end began rusting out. Took it to a body shop and they said it couldn't be fixed. Mr Radiator said he could weld it, gave me a decent estimate. Came back to pick it up and he charged me about half that. Said when he got into it that it wasn't as much work as he was expecting. That was over 100 000 miles ago. I don't even consider taking any of our vehicles anywhere else

IF YOU RE FROM OUT OF TOWN DON T GO HERE. I was in Indianapolis for a concert, my water pump broke I went to Mr Radiator the next morning to see if I can fix it asap and get on the road. My car was overheating so bad that it stalled out trying to get to him. After I got there he looked in the car and said it s your Radiator and it was going to cost about 1100. to fix and the earliest he can do it was the next day. I was for certain it was the water pump because of where the water was exiting but he was trying to convince me it was a cracked radiator. I was coming from Kentucky and I stressed that to him that I wouldn t be able to afford another nights stay and a radiator. He still insisted it was the radiator. After having my club brother come pick me up and look at the car he decided we tow it to someone else. We took it to a friend of his and he put it on a lift diagnosed it and found out it was the water pump. This shop takes full advantage of when a person is in a trouble, he knew I had no one back home and I was to far away from home to get a second opinion. Instead of being a true mechanic and helping someone he did the mom and pop shop thing and tried to convince someone it s another issue to fix something that s not broken. He over prices everything to make a quicker dollar.Service: Auto maintenance

Dave and his staff are always happy to help! I recommend them to anyone especially if you have a problem you can't solve. Dave is definitely guru when it comes to cars. Plus he always uses new parts and does a thorough job. Always makes you feel at ease as well.

I was driving through Indianapolis on 70 West, when my check engine light came on and I lost my power steering. I was able to get off at an exit downtown and call a few shops. He actually took the time to show me what was wrong with my car. Mr. Radiator was able to fix my car, he replaced my water pump, belt, and topped off my fluids, and got me back on the road within 4 hours, working through the lunch hour. Also, they let my dog hang out in the waiting room and got him a bowl of water and some crackers. Cannot recommend this place enough! Great prices, service, and more importantly amazing people!Services: Steering & suspension repair, Auto engine diagnostic, Engine repair

Unfortunately I had to get a major job done. A new engine. Dave, the owner was amazing through the whole process. He called me each day with updates. He called me with any issues along the way. He was able to finish the job a full day early. Very reasonably priced and professionalism at its best.

Called around to several places to get my radiator replaced, not only was Mr. Radiator the most reasonably priced, but the repair was very fast as well. I had several issues on my end & everyone I spoke to was very patient, respectful, and worked with me to help me out. I wish I d known about this place sooner, I will be returning for any future car problems!

Mr. Radiator is a rare example of true old fashioned service and integrity. Understanding that no one is excited to shell out significant cash on vehicle repair, these guys handle it with style and grace. I have been taking my cars to Mr. Radiator for 15 years. Sometimes we had a great news "quick fix", sometimes the parts and labor were much more significant. In any of these cases everyone here was sensitive to my needs as a customer first, and respectful of my time and money as if it were their own. If you want your repairs done the right way, quickly, and cost effectively, look no further for your lifelong mechanic.

Mr. Radiator is a great shop. Dave and David do great work in a reasonable time frame for a fair price. Have been taking our trucks there for years with no problems. Highly recommended, thanks guys!

I have been taking my vehicles to Mr. Radiator for more than 15 years, and it is not really convenient to do so as I live on the NW side of Indy. But Dave is honest and able to explain and or demonstrate what is wrong and how he will fix it. He s worked on my Aerostar minivan, my Ford Ranger truck, and my Subaru Forester, repairing various problems: brakes, exhaust, power window motors, suspension issues, A/C problems, as well as routine maintenance like oil changes. I never worry about being taken advantage of here.Services: Exhaust, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic, Auto engine tuning, Engine repair, Brakes, A/C installation & repair, Oil change

Absolutely a God-send. My van broke down and had a problem with the spark plug. Mechanics were courteous. Price was fair. If I actually lived in Indianapolis, I would trust them to work on my van every time. Instead, I can tell other people that these guys will be good to you. Gob bless.

Dave fixed my Kubota radiator, it was much more cost efficient than buying a new one. Great service, quick turnaround, quality work, I would use this shop again. Everyone I dealt with was professional and friendly.

Mr. Radiator (Dave) is an excellent mechanic and cares about people. He fixed my a/c and explained all sorts of things about my vehicle. I will definitely bring my car to Mr. Radiator for future repairs and advice!Highly Recommend!

Took a chance on this place with my 24 year old car late last year. It had many, many problems and they fixed most (that I could afford) and told me it would last through the winter. Had my doubts but it made it just fine through the worst winter I can remember! The hood had always been a major problem to get open and closed and one side hinge was broken too, but they got it closed tight for the winter. Problem was that I was never able to get it open afterwards! I called them this week and told them the problem and I had no money due to losing my job. They said bring it in. They tried and tried and got the hood open. And then, to my surprise, took the front of the car apart and fixed the hood so it now opens and closes perfectly!!! And charged me nothing to do it....even helped me put all the fluids in that it desperately needed (I had them with me). Can't thank them enough or recommend them highly enough. Just wonderful. Will never go anyplace else and will tell everyone I know to go there.

I took my Jeep Grand Cherokee (48,000 mi) to the local Chrysler dealer to diagnosis two problems I was having.1) Dash light indicator icon warnings would flash on and off periodically as well as fog lights and head lights would not alternate correctly. The dealer's recommendation was to Replace clock spring (found to be clicking when turning). This service would cost $1515.17. Replace Dynamic Sensor at a cost of $730.00. To fix that problem totaled $2245.27. On the recommendation of an acquaintance, I contacted Dave at Mr. Radiator. He installed a new Jeep alternator. With labor, the total invoice came to $335.23. That problem was solved at a savings to me of $1179.94.2) The second problem I had was that the engine would die intermittently at idle at stop lights. The Chrysler dealer diagnosed this problem and recommended replacing the throttle body, the IAC and the throttle position sensor. This estimate was $925.66. Dave cleaned the throttle body, installed a new sensor for a total cost of $178.00. The Jeep runs great and I saved a total of $2657.60Would I recommend Mr. Radiator? Dah!

Charged me almost 2x the All Data rate and time. Then it was back to the shop 4 times over the next 2 weeks because they failed to fix things properly. Very overpriced for the quality of work performed.

TG a trusted friend recommended Mr. Muffler. Dave, David and the team are serious mechanics who delivered top quality service taking extra care to make sure my SUV was in safe running condition after another shop had hacked it.

Absolutely a joke do not ever take your vehicle to this place. I got way over charged for brakes and they never fixed what I brought my truck in for! Then when I asked about fixing the actually problem they wanted to charge me even more then what I had already paid. So unless you want to be over charged and screwed over please do not go here!
