READ UPDATES Had my car serviced here a few times and the price was absolutely fair and had very quick service. They had let me use a loaner car each time to get back to work. Mike is an awesome tech and a great guy to work with. Will definitely go back. UPDATE: Had my water pump and timing belt replaced after the pump started leaking like a maniac. Mike recommended the timing belt to be replaced as it was in pretty bad shape. Had both done and was back in my car the next day. Also had a loaner on hand to use for the day. Thanks again Mike!
Discount Auto really did a great job for me! I was in need of a new fuel pump and every garage I contacted wasn't giving me an honest pricing. When I contacted Ed, I finally found someone that would give me a reasonable price. They were very helpful in getting my car to the shop and finishing the job in a timely manner. Ed was fantastic in helping me out even when it wasn't the most convenient time for him and I really appreciate it! These guys were fantastic!
I've been going to discount auto for many years, i've had really good service from Ed and their mechanic i believe his name is Mike. They have done tires, brakes, and my recent work was my timing belt. I've had fast and efficient service every time. Also, their prices are very fair compared to other automotive shops around. They even wash it! I wasn't expecting that but it shows that they go out of the way for their customers. Thank you again discount! I will make sure to recommend my friends to your location.
I brought my car in with out an appointment, I was having persistent tire issues and my steering/handling seemed to be declining. I own a used vehicle and bought it from what I thought to be a reputable dealership. Everyone I spoke to at Discount Auto and Tire was very helpful and honest. They found issues that I brought up to my dealership that they told me they looked at, but clearly did not. Their honesty saved me double the amount of time, trouble and money that I would have spent at the dealership where I purchased my vehicle. They repaired my vehicle in no time. My car has never driven better than it does now! THANK YOU, I will be back!
I called them on a Sunday morning to get my car that had a flat tire towed from the busy interstate on a cold day. The service was fast and well done. If you have insurance coverage for towing, always call the provider directly and then get reimbursed. The service is quicker and the provider gets more money.ServicesService not listed
Very helpful and knowledgeable people! I went there to get a new battery for my car Toyota, since it died out really quick with no apparent cause, however, they checked and told me that the battery is perfectly fine and I could even get a replacement battery free of charge, if I want to, since the battery was still under warranty..., However, the real issue was the Alternator which was not charging the battery at all times while the engine was running. They explained everything to me in such a nice way, i feel myself half engineer. : Ordered the part really quick, and fixed the issue in no time. Would strongly recommend their services to people living in commutable distances. : : :
Great Experience here. My car overheated and I had to go to a shop near where it broke down. Just so happened that Discount Auto Services is near where I live so I brought it over there after hours in order to drop it off. An employee saw that I was in the parking lot and looking to drop it off and checked me in after hours. The service was great and they were able to fix it at a reasonable cost the following day. I do think that some of the negative reviews attributed to this business could have been a few people frustrated with the process of their car breaking down. It sucks whenever it happens but all you can hope for is quick and honest service. As far as I'm concerned, I got that here.
Best auto service and staff I've ever had or heard of! I was visiting MN from out of state over the weekend and my Jeep broke down on Saturday, 20 minutes from closing. Butch diagnosed it that evening and had me on the road again by late Sunday night. I didn't get into my story or why I needed to be home as soon as possible, Butch could see I was in a bind and swooped in anyway. He put over 7 hours of work into that thing on his personal time and I just couldn't believe it. He kept in touch with me to make sure I got home okay and told me to call if I needed any other help with the Jeep. Butch is one of the best mechanics I've ever met, and one of the best people I've ever met. I'm certain the rest of the family at Discount Auto Service and Tire Center share the same traits. Forget about "Iowa-nice", you guys define "Minnesotan-nice"! Thanks again.
THIS SHOP STOLE MY BATTERY! I’m not joking. I had my vehicle towed there with the battery inside. They concluded they weren’t able to service the vehicle, at which point I had to towed it to another shop. The new shop called me immediately saying the battery was totally missing. George said he did NOT have my battery, it must have been stolen. But the hardware to install the battery was placed nicely where the battery should have been. Even the bolts were put back nicely on the screws. DO NOT GO HERE! THIS SHOP SHOULD BE PRESSED WITH CRIMINAL CHARGES!
This company engages in price gouging and is absolutely the worst and most unprofessional experience I've ever had dealing with a business. They advertise tows starting at $65 as seen in picture but charged me $99 just to load the vehicle. I also paid the place they were picking up the vehicle $60 to load the vehicle and it's easy forklift sets car on the flatbed not winching it out of ditch. Very aggressive driver Sean threatened to pull his gun and impound me vehicle when I tried to reason with him for their rates. In the past I have also used them 3 times and previously they've charged me $80 for a compete 20 mile tow. NEVER AGAIN, take your business elsewhere
