Auto Repair in Fruitland, ID

“I typically only write reviews if I have an amazing experience or really negative experience. This review of Modern Auto Service in Fruitland, ID is the former. Kevin and all the folks at Modern Automotive went way above and beyond any expectations I had.

I was on an extended road trip when my Sprinter van experienced sudden power loss. I called several repair shops in the area. While most of the shops I spoke with seemed to want to help me, they said they were back logged for several weeks. I explained my circumstances to Kevin and he immediately grasped the difficulty of the situation I was in. Kevin told me to swing by the shop and they would find a way to fit me in. This was about 3:00PM. He explained that their mechanics were in training that day but they would fit me in first thing the next day.

I showed up at 700AM the next day and sure enough, they had me first in line. Modern Auto Service also provided me with a loaner vehicle at no additional charge. The problem ended up being a blown out hose for the turbo. A less transparent and honorable shop could easily have said I needed a new turbo. Which would have cost more than 10 times as much. By 4:00PM the day after the problem occurred, I was on the road again.

I am so very grateful to Kevin and everyone at Modern Auto Service in Fuitland, ID. I wish they were in my hometown. If every auto repair shop had the integrity, transparency, and honesty of Modern Auto Service I feel people would not dread taking their vehicle to be repaired.”

“Wicked Wrench provided some Wicked awesome customer service! Met Brooke and Brandon thru work when I used to be deliver their parts delivery guy and connected right away. I took them my 08 Silverado to have the front suspension done and Brandon did an awesome job with coilover recommendations! He did his research on my truck, he picked out some Belltech coilovers, chose a great color to match my truck and treated it like it was his own vehicle. Will definitely be coming back for further projects!!”

“I was very impressed with the company. An error was made when servicing my son's vehicle. The company acknowledged it and rectified it immediately and professionally. Mistakes happen and it is nice to see a company that quickly rectifies it quickly. Good job, Expert Auto!”

“I could never say enough good things about Pete at American Apex Auto repair. He is the kind of genuinely good human being that seems to be so rare to find these days. He's always been beyond honest and generous and helpful anytime I've ever had to take any number of my cars into his shop.

His pricing is beyond fair, which in and of itself is ridiculously unheard of these days. Not only has the price always been less than what I've expected, he always make sure to explain exactly what's going on and exactly what he did to fix it. The transparency you get when you go to the shop is deeply refreshing.

I know there's certain things that he doesn't work on, but honestly give him a call before you go to any other shop in the area. You won't regret ever going to American Apex Auto Repair.

He's always gone above and beyond to help, he's even come to my house when my car wouldn't start to save me a tow. If you want your next mechanic visit to be as painless as possible give Pete a call.”

“Great group of guys. They were able to problem solve when the mufflers I brought to them wouldn't fit on the vehicle. They also listened to my request for what I was looking for out of it and customized my exhaust to what I was after. They don't just work on them they are automotive enthusiasts also and their passion for their industry shows. I highly recommend their shop and look forward to doing business with them again in the future.”

“Fast, friendly and efficient service! It's nice to see a local business that gives back to the community, with their free oil changes for vets on veterans day! Awesome receptionist and staff!”

“I went in for an oil change and they did a great job! I was impressed with their efficiency and customer service. They even gave me a coupon on the cost so it was worth the cost. I recommend Jiffy Lube to everyone.”
