My husband paid the bill. I don't know if they actually did any work at all. They are wonderful. They are our auto repair shop of choice. We've been using them for a long time.

After not being able to start the car, my girlfriend and I checked the gas and tried jumping it - without success. We knew anything beyond that was out of our expertise. I called Mr. Lerum and dealt with him directly, he was extremely courteous and professional. The car was towed to his shop, which he set up for me, and then did the required work to get it back up and running. He determined two of the cells in the battery were frozen solid, and no amount of jumping it would have gotten it to run. It was towed on Thursday, and we got it back the next day by noon. I found this extremely quick especially considering when we picked the car up, his shop was quite busy. I'm not surprised though, people will come a long way for the kind of professional service Mr. Lerum provides.
Description of Work: Towed car, checked electronics (alternator etc.), replaced battery, replaced air filter.

She coasted in while he was shoveling his driveway on a Sunday afternoon, I don't think he was even open. He looked at her truck and verified that it was in fact her alternator and quoted her a fair price. I work in the neighborhood and I have coworkers who bring their cars there and they say they always get good service and a fair price.
Description of Work: Replaced my mother's alternator

They did the work when I needed to schedule it. They didn't do any unnecessary work. I felt the price was fair and the work was done well.
Description of Work: They lubricated the windows on our car to eliminate a loud screeching noise that the front window made when it was raised or lowered. The only problem window was the front left but they did all four.

I have been going there for a year now. They don’t overcharge. We bought a certain number of oil changes and it is $13 for an oil change. I would give them an eight out of eight.

It was a perfect experience that instills my faith in the honest small business operator.
Description of Work: I went to Lerum sure my brakes needed replacement as well as get a new battery. Tim Lerum looked at the brakes and assured me that they still had about 50% life left in them. He could have sold me new brakes but instead told me the truth which will make me a long term customer. Bravo to the honest!

The hose busted while I was on the road. I went to the nearest service station. I pulled in right at lunch time and they put me right to the head of the line. They did that because they noticed it was my work truck. The man that was working on my truck was not feeling or looking good and was going to leave, but he stayed to fix my truck. They did a really good job. Totally satisfied. They were just super. They took care of me.
Description of Work: They replaced a heater hose on my truck.

I have been going for about 20 years. They always give me a price range. They have even worked with me, allowing me to make payments on a slightly more expensive job. They also show me the work they do so that I can compare before and after. Everyone there is friendly, professional and they go out of their way to be helpful.
Description of Work: I take my car there for any repairs on my car.

I was very impressed by the service and professionalism of the staff. My car was ready BEFORE PROMISED! (They had a cancellation). It runs like a new car again for the cost of a new car payment.
Description of Work: I chose Lerum Automotive due to it's proximity to my home and good reports on Angie's List. My 10 year old car was running poorly. I called this company to make an appointment and I was told that they would not be able to look at my car until tomorrow. Tim agreed that I could bring it in today so they could give me a written estimate for repair when they were able to get to it. I dropped the car off around 11 am. I received a call at 2 pm with an estimate. They replaced the plugs and plug wires on my approval (which were not bad but recommended) and a bad ignition coil. The actual price was 28.07 greater than the estimate. I was told that the car would be ready by 5:00.

They are very honest, seem to be knowledgeable, and they'll tell you if you don't need the work. They also try to find inexpensive ways to do things to save money. They won't try to sell you something that isn't needed. They are very nice and pleasant people to deal with.
Description of Work: They repaired a clutch on an older car ('94 Saturn).

WHEN THE DEALER REFUSED TO LOOK AT OUR CAR FOR TWO WEEKS WE TOOK IT TO LERUM. TIM RAN A VERY COMPREHENSIVE CHECK OF THE CAR, AND WAS HONEST ENOUGH TO INFORM US WHEN HE HAD DONE AS MUCH AS HE COULD (HE WARNED US UP FRONT THAT HE MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO COMPLETELY DIAGNOSE OUT IMPORT). WE HAVE USED LERUM AUTOMOTIVE FOR MANY YEARS. THEY HAVE APPEARED TO BE COMPLETELY OPEN AN HONEST, EVEN RECOMMENDING WORK NOT BE DONE, OR SUGGESTING CHEAPER ALTERNATIVES. ON THE RARE OCCASION THEY MAKE A MISTAKE (THEY ONCE USED ORGANIC RATHER THAN SYNTHETIC OIL) THEY CORRECT IT (IN THAT CASE I WOULD NEVER HAVE KNOWN IF THEY HAD NOT TOLD ME) WITH NO FUSS. AN EXCELLENT OPERATION.
