We have taken our cars there for the last 10 years. They do a good job. Communication is good. I always drop off my car and they are fairly quick. We have always been very pleased with them.

It's local, in my neighborhood. They have been really good. We have taken our vehicles there for probably about the last 10 years something like that. I would say they do a good job. He is a great communicator. I've never waited there I always drop it off. They do a good job answering questions, especially when it comes to auto mechanic's answering questions.

This was the worst automotive experience i've ever had. My car wasn't running for a couple of weeks and i called him to ask if i could tow it there. He said fine. This was my 3rd or 4th time going there. So i had it towed there and as soon as he received the car he called me and said he refused to fix it and I needed to come and get it. I asked why and he said because it was so dirty and smelly, and he's tired of people bringing him junk, he cant get his guys to enter the car and he doesn't want to catch any diseases. I offered to come clean the car out and he said no just come get it. My car isn't any more dirty than it was all the other times I came. I have three kids, they don't make and effort to keep the car clean. There was no smell I could detect and i drove the car daily before it broke down. I have also heard that i'm not the first person he mistreated. If I could give him zero stars I would.
Description of Work: i requested a dianosis of what was wrong with my car, but he refused to give it.

It went very well and I was very pleased and will continue to have my car taken care of by them.
Description of Work: I had a check engine light and I have a Lincoln Aviator and was afraid that it was going to cost a lot to fix, but it turned out to be a hose that needed to be replaced. They did all the work including a part for one price that I could afford. They we were really friendly and made comfortable while waiting.

As a non-mechanic, I'm leery of the corporate "grease monkey" shops that will do their best to scare you into believing that you need a whole bunch of repairs or they're not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your vehicle. When I needed work on my 2012 Caliber that was making strange 'bed spring' noises at low speeds, I took it to Mike's Auto Care and found that Mike is nothing like that at all. He and his mechanics did an excellent job fixing the rear struts of my vehicle as well as tightening up my front suspension so that my car rides better now than it has been riding for awhile. I'm very satisfied with Mike's and his team of mechanic's work and will bring my car back to his shop when I need the inevitable brake jobs, muffler work, suspension work, or any other repairs. He's a man who stands behind his work, will take time to explain, in terms I can understand, what's going on with my car, what is needed now and what can wait, and who won't try to scare me into making a lot of unnecessary repairs. I highly recommend Mike's Auto Care.

I'm fairly picky about who works on my car. I had heard great things about Mike's so I called to make an appointment to have the car looked at. I could tell from the phone conversation that Mike was professional, knowledgeable and fair! I showed up early for my appointment and they took my car for a drive, diagnosed the problem and even though we had discussed doing any needed work at a later date, Mike stated that he hated me driving with brakes that were metal on metal and if I wanted, they would do the work right then. This was a very pleasant surprise as it was late in the day and I knew they had other cars to work on. I appreciated their consideration and I knew they weren't trying to rip me off but that they genuinely cared about my safety. The price was very reasonable for a Lexus and the job was completed in an efficient manner. As a single woman it's hard to know who to trust in the car repair arena but Mike was incredible and I deeply appreciate his honesty, professionalism and caring nature. I have my son's car scheduled to go in later this week and will have no doubt that Mike and his staff will only recommend work that needs to be done and not gauge us for the extra $$$. This is an excellent establishment!

I needed a reputable local mechanic to inspect a vehicle I had seen advertised online. From the picture and description the vehicle looked nice. Mike did a thorough inspection of the vehicle. He found it had not been properly maintained. Rust issues, repair issues etc. Based on his advice I passed on the vehicle. Saved me a lot of grief and aggravation.

The day before I went to Mike's Auto Care, I had taken my Chevrolet Equinox to a local transmission shop; however, the technicians could not find anything causing the second gear to hesitate. Mike put it on his scope and checked it out. The computer indicated that nothing was wrong, but after doing a couple of test drives and checking everything, Mike found the problem, which was a minor issue. He repaired it the same day, and the transmission has been working perfectly ever since. I highly recommend this shop as they are very professional and efficient.

My car was producing some scraping noise from right rear wheel. I knew it was an issue with brakes. Mike's replaced all rear pads and back rotors. I made an appointment and when I brought car to the shop, Mike was very thorough in explanations about possible problems and what might be required. Car was repaired that day and all is working very well. I was impressed that Mike called to verify costs of a couple of additional items, wipers and filters and offered me price options. He didn't just go ahead and replace with most expensive. No attempts to sell me any unneeded services as my dealer might. he also was thorough in explaining everything that was done. I appreciate the good and quick service. Thank you Mike's automotive Care, Inc. You have a new customer.

I took my 2007 Silverado pickup truck in to three different places to fix a problem. The truck was consistently going into a reduced engine power mode. So basically I would be driving 70 mph and my truck would shift into a 35 mile an hour maximum mode. It was dangerous and very frustrating! The three different places (including a dealer) tried to fix my problem but failed to do so. When I spoke with them about the issue they had no suggestions as to what the problem could be and frankly I don't feel as if they wanted to take a second look at it. It was a mystery and each place had different solutions to the problem. They all failed! Each time the places charged me a minimum of 250 dollars. I was very frustrated??.I looked up MIke's auto care on Angies List and thought I would give them a chance. I spoke to Mike directly on the phone. He was polite and he listened to every word I said. He was genuinely caring about my problem. Also, he could tell that I was angry about the problems I was having. He told me a time in which my vehicle would be fixed and he nailed it. He spent extra time trying to find the actual problem and he called me as soon as he did. A mouse had gotten in and chewed a wire in a harness. It was hard to find because of where it was located. Anyways, ,, long story short, my truck now runs perfect because of Mike going the extra mile. I will take my vehicles to him for the rest of my life. It is hard to find a auto care provider that isn't going to rip you off. Mike is a stand up guy with good business ethics. I suggest not to look anywhere else for your vehicle needs. I was so happy I had him do my brakes as well.

they got it in right away and it was fixed a day later. Mike called me as soon as he could tell me something he didn't recommend any thing beyond what I needed to keep my car running. The best part is he doesn't treat me like a women who shouldn't know anything about cars. that is a sure way to turn me away is to treat me like i'm just a women.

We moved to Okemos about 5 years ago, and have tried a few mechanics in this area. We are trying to keep one of our current cars in decent shape until our son turns 16 in July. After having a bad experience with the mechanics in this area (See Woods auto care) we went back to Mike. He is outstanding. Explains cost, parts, labor and if something needs to be replaced. He is always very transparent. Mike and his staff are always friendly and the shop is clean. It is worth the 15 minute drive to go back over there actually deal with a mechanic who is friendly and can be trusted.

Mike is one of the most honest people I have met. Listening to him talk to other customers and how he has generally advised me not to waste money on minor issues, because the car is old, has generated a very high level of trust in his advice. The work he has done has been fast and convenient. Mike's is the only place I will bring my car!

Mike has always been super helpful and efficient with us. He explains what will be done, what he'll look for, and if he finds anything else. He usually doesn't 'find anything else' like other providers do when they open the hood. He's also very great at explaining what NEEDS to be done for the car to be safe to drive, what SHOULD be done in the near future and what would be HELPFUL to your car when you have the funds/if you want to do it. We take our cars to him for all their repairs, and are more than happy to be repeat customers. He squeezes us in if it's an emergency/if we NEED something done, or will start looking at it right away the next day.
