                      I have been here a few times for multiple issues, some preventative and a couple of times to fix something in an emergency. Every time the experience has been great. The owner(s) are super helpful and nice, the work has always been done really well, and the prices were great. They also don't push you to do work that doesn't need to be done right away. Very happy and will definitely return!

                      I called to ask for a quote on a repair. The guy cuts me off and talks for 2 minutes to someone in the background then says he doesn't do quotes on the phone and im wasting his time. Ok. Good luck with your business model.

                      Great work, honest work, honest price.  Jan is a great mechanic and has been in the business for many years!!  He will do what needs to be done and go over everything in detail.  If something doesn't need to be fixed right away, he will tell you.  He's and honest guy, making a living for his family like the rest of us.  If you're looking for a dependable mechanic that you can trust, look no further.  Good people running a fair and honest business.

                      So glad my friends recommended them! Drove in for the first time with a weird sound after another mechanic had done some work.The owner came right out (even though he had other work going on and I didn't have an appointment) and checked out the car and pointed out exactly what was wrong and needed to be replaced.  He gave some tough love about one repair, and gave me all the info so that I could make the best decision about what to do with our family vehicle.  We will be stopping off our vehicle later tonight for a new idler, belt, and hose. And begin the task of planning for our next vehicle as the next most likely thing to go will be more to fix than my trade in.  I appreciate that they took the time to understand the issue with the car, our transportation needs, and our family dynamic all into account as they helped get our family van back on the road for the holidays.

                      Jan Sojka at Forge is an honest and knowledgeable guy who has a history of working on the German autos in Germany (or somewhere in Europe iirc). He knows them very well, and he'll be straight with you at every turn. His prices are fair, his work is always reliable and honest, and he does what he says without a fuss or upcharge after upcharge. He should absolutely be considered for your go to service shop for German autos especially. Don't be fooled by the understated shop appearance - he's the real deal - a master at his trade imo.

                      By far the best mechanic around who works on both Foreign and Domestic cars. (been with them for many years) Jan Sojka  and his wife Lois are a great team of professionals who make you feel as though you are a member of their family. Very pleasant to work with. I consider myself lucky to have found a knowledgeable and honest mechanic. Do yourself a favor and make them your mechanic.

                      Are you looking for an honest mechanic? This is where to go. I am consistently impressed with the quality of the work AND the fairness of the price. I have brought small and large problems here and always leave feeling like I received a quality repair at a reasonable price.

                      Jan is the best! He is trustworthy and fair and pragmatic.  Not only does he fix things when I'm in the shop, he has given us remote support over the phone which has helped us out of some difficult situations!

                      The mechanic is a really nice guy, knows his stuff. He is good at explaining things to those who are not as educated on how cars work and such. Not sure how he gets things done as he seems to work by himself but he does it! Been to a couple of mechanics in the area but I like Forge Auto the best.

                      Jan and his wife are the best! Will never tell you to repair something that isn't needed, very honest and hard working plus very reasonable pricing as well!

                      Forge Auto Works gave me a great deal with fixing my throttlebody! I highly recommend them and will use them in the future again, if needed. Thank you Jan and Lois for treating me like family!
