We were traveling back from vacation and got a flat tire. Morrison was there quickly and put the spare on. After following him back to the shop the tire was repaired and we were back on the road. They were the best!

This place was absolutely incredible. Ryan and Ron helped us after we had an unfortunate experience with a part failing on our car a part that had just been replaced the day before. We were in trouble in the middle of a roadtrip but they were friendly, kind, kept us informed as to what they were doing, and gave us honest answers. We would highly recommend them!

We were going from DesMoines to Dayton and the alternator died. We were on I 80 calling multiple shops and nobody could even look at the car for 3-7 days. Found Morrisons and they got us right in, confirmed the alternator was bad and had a new one delivered in 15 minutes and installed in 90 minutes. Professional, friendly, and fast! I highly recommend them!Service: General repairs & maintenance

We just moved to the area and unfortunately had a problem with our car. We called Ron and he came promptly to our rescue. Not only did he tow our car, but since we don t have anyone close by that we know he gave us and our groceries a ride home. He and his mechanic quickly diagnosed and repaired our car. When our car was finished Ron even came and picked me up and brought me back to the shop. After the car repairs I asked Ron about new tires and he quickly put together 3 options for me. After choosing the new tires his mechanic had all four changed and back on in about 30 minutes. I m happy we chose to call Morrison Repair. A+ service!

Very, very poor service. Our car broke down 700 miles from home with our 2 year old daughter with us. The guy on the phone initially told us it would take about day to fix, so didn't seem too bad. After two days I called to check the status, and the same guy was very rude and dismissive. Couldn't care less about us. Was annoyed that I even bothered him by calling. Four days later, still 700 miles from home, we call again. Car finally fixed, but no one bothered to call and let us know.The car died the next day and wouldn't start for a long time. When I went to fill it with gas, about half a gallon poured out from under the van all over the gas station. After convincing the gas station attendant to not call the fire department on us, I crawled under the van and noticed they had the fuel lines hooked up wrong. The vent tube was completely disconnected, pouring gas all over the place.Go somewhere else.

I blew a tire on a loaded trailer on Saturday late afternoon when it was 95 degrees. I called and they came to my aid even though they were closed. The tire was an odd size, but he had two on his truck. We decided to change both tires on the trailer and I was back on the road. He was very helpful and professional.

Great guys that do good work and fair prices I was glad to have chosen Morrison my single axle utility trailer needed a hub and they took care of it in a timely manner. If I was in the area again I wouldn t hesitate to stop back.

Call this gentleman today to get an alignment and he informed me that since he did not do the work on the vehicle that he would not align. He asked me what I had done to the vehicle I told him that I just had shocks and struts and control alarms upper control arms and sway linkage and tie rod ends and inner tie rod ends done. And mind you this was done by a professional mechanic that doesn t do alignments and this gentleman will not align my vehicle. I mean I m pretty sure as an alignment goes you re supposed to check swaybar linkage inner tire rod ends outer tie rod ends shocks and struts anything that goes with the lineman you re supposed to check with you do the alignment

Stranded today with a blow tire on the motorhome with an odd size. They had 1 in stock to get us back on the road. But after review of the other 3 they actually ran 50 miles one way and picked up the remaining tires needed. Truely lifesavers with great customer service

Stranded on a Sunday, just starting out on vacation. Ron Came in to the shop, recommended the work to be done, drove to Des Moines to get the parts, was back the next morning fixing my rig.Ron even recommended a hotel, and charged a very reasonable price.I can't thank him enough!

What can I say....Ron was a lifesaver for me the other day. My serpentine belt went flying on the interstate after my belt tensioner busted on my VW Passat and Ron was there to save the day. It was Saturday and no one else was willing to take my call. Ron drove to Des Moines that day grabbed the needed parts to fix my car and I was back on the interstate to finish my weekend trip. Ron is a very genuine guy and I was very impressed with this service. His rates were also very fair. One of the kindest mechanics I have ever met. I highly recommend Morrison Enterprises to anyone in need of genuine service.

In the grand scheme of Life, nobody wants to have to visit a mechanic. We want our cars to work fine and never break down. But if you are unfortunate to have your car breakdown, You would be lucky to have your car breakdown near exit 182. All you can ask for when visiting The Mechanic is a fair price and an honest assessment. That is what you will get at Ron Morrison's auto repair shop. He may not be the warmest and fuzziest of characters but at least he won't swindle you.

I was on my way back from Chicago for a weekend trip, and was a few hundred miles from home. My tire blew on the interstate, and I was told that I should call this place and that they would help me. I called and a guy answered the phone, and I explained the situation and asked if he would be able to help me if I could get my car to his shop. He said "No, we are closed. I'm just answering the phone." and was not of help at all when I asked if anything was possible to help me get on my way. Now I realize that I can't expect a business to help me when it is closed, but he was just completely dismissive of my clearly panicked state. There was no "I'm sorry, but we're closed. I would be happy to get it fixed tomorrow though.", which would have worked.Just completely dismissive, and not helpful at all. If you're in a bind, good luck getting help out of these people.

Our car died on the highway and got it towed for $60 bucks. The owner RON gave us a free ride to the hotel. Ron is really caring and helpful! His prices are very fair. Thank you Ron. :-)

AMAZING! 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone. They were closed for the holiday but opened up just for us to get a new trailer tire. Wonderful service and we are so grateful.

Traveling 80 on our way to Wyoming from Ohio our wheel bearing went out. Called first thing in the morning came and towed us to the shop, got the parts there, everything replaced, and had us out of there and back on the road by 11. Effecient work and we're very appreciative!

Ron is nice, professional and knowledgeable. His prices were reasonable and he was able to help me out in a pinch (though it seems like some people expect a shop to help them out no matter what time of day or day of the week).
