“A Tale of Two Shops – just one example of how great Nofsinger’s has been over the years, as Dave is always quick to consult or scan my cars even when busy, and has always been more than reasonable.
Using technology many independent shops lack, Dave diagnosed my intermittent airbag light as a failing clock spring and then determined that Hyundai had a problem with the part so I might be able to get it repaired free at a dealership. No charge from Dave.
Sure enough, I found a technical service bulletin and an extension of the warranty to 15 years. This should be the end of the story, but you can always count on dealers to make Nofsinger’s look good. I booked a service appointment at a dealership in Villa Park (also reviewed) and insisted that they have the part in stock by the time I came so I wouldn’t have to go twice.
Short version: They didn’t have the part but didn’t tell me until I’d been there 2.5 hours waiting for an oil change I’d added and an open recall (underbody treatment) I’d agreed to only because I thought I was getting it all over with at once.
On top of that, the service writer told me the job would cost $700 when the part came in. Gee, I wonder where dealers get their bad reputations? After I pushed back, he scurried off to a manager and then returned to confirm there would be no charge, but there was never anything close to an apology.
I never went back. I got the part for $27 and installed it myself literally in 20 minutes. If I’d gone back to Nofsinger’s (where they’re always patient with my DIY endeavors), I guarantee it wouldn’t have cost $700. Or $200. They can do way more than you think, and if they can’t, they admit it.”
“Went to Pep Boys for a new battery. They wanted to charge me $351 for the battery and installation. I declined, and J1 got me in right away and had a new battery for just $254. J1 just got themselves a new repeat customer!”
“Thank you Austin for all you do and how awesome of a person you are. You care about your customers.
Truthful and honest always willing to help
Thank you

“Visited this location after finding a screw in my tire. 4:30PM, greeted immediately, given options and had new tire installed in 30 minutes. Back on the road at 5PM like nothing happened. Great crew and location, highly recommend!!”
“Loni is hands down the best mechanic I've had the pleasure of working with. We've been relocated nationally 10+ times over the last 20 years and visited many shops, big and small.
During our last move to Naperville, I visited a well known automotive shop who unfortunately gave me the run around for 8 weeks. What should have been a new brake pad/rotor installation and alignment ended up turning into months of non-stop screeching, excuse after excuse, and eventually both rear camber bolts seizing (with one completely snapping off), which made my car unsafe to drive.
I posted a photo of the bolt on social media, requesting any suggestions for reputable mechanics in the area. Multiple replies emphasized Loni's skill, knowledge, and expertise. I contacted Loni, who freely gave his time over the phone, and set up an appointment for the following day. Once the car was lifted, he again provided ample time to go over work the other company had performed, repairs that would need to be done, and an approximate time frame and dollar amount. He was patient, intelligent, and accommodating.
Loni not only fixed all the previous work that was done incompetently, he came in under budget and my vehicle was ready a few days earlier then expected.
I appreciated his straight shooting demeanor and 35+ years of master certified knowledge. There was no ambiguity regarding his expertise, he 110% knows what he's talking about and stands behind his work, guaranteed.
Loni (mechanic), Kathy (office manager), and Maury (owner) are a rare gem in the automotive shop industry. For as long as we're in IL, I will continue bringing my business to Automotivation.”
“Very happy with the car and the buying experience with Heritage Cadillac. Working with my sales rep Tommy and getting the back end work online before I came made everything go quickly. I got in 10 am and was driving my new xt6 by 12. They are great and really made the buying process a pleasure!”
“Just got my Audi R8 back from CPT and the car drives like it is brand new. Al has previously tuned the R8 and fixed any issue that has risen. Grateful for his expertise and skill. Plan on bringing my upcoming porsche 992 GT3 to him for modifications and pampering. Thank you to Al and his team!”
“I had a very great and satisfying experience getting my car fixed at Crash Champions. Kyle and his team are very kind and dedicated to their customers and give the best that they can to get your work done. They fixed my car perfectly and delivered before the estimated time. I was informed regularly about the status of my car everyday. Overall I had a great experience with the whole team out there! Thanks and highly recommended to everyone.”
“Have been using Bill's since moving to Lombard 20 years ago. Bought a Mazda 3 years ago and haven't need them but now told by the dealer my front brakes were at 5%. Talked to Bill and decided to go with him since his price was better. He just called and told me my brakes were at 50% and I don't need them! I commend him for his honesty and integrity plus he's drops me off and picks me up when the car is done! I'm going back to my trusty neighborhood mechanic. He's a gem!!!!!!Service: General repairs & maintenance”
“I can’t say enough positive things about Dave and Areawide Automotive. He is honest, ethical, and has never failed to deliver great service at a fair price. Services recommended by my Lexus dealer proved unnecessary and way too pricey. Dave beat the dealer’s “discounted” price to implement a repair by 60%. In addition, issues highlighted by the dealer for proactive repair proved unnecessary and are just typical of a car with 130,000 miles. This Lexus model can go 300,000 miles or more, and AreaWide can get it there.
I highly recommend AreaWide Automotive.”
“This place is an amazing place! I was a student at NUHS and give students a small discount which is helpful. They’re always busy but they get your car in and out pretty quickly. I would recommend anyone to bring their vehicles to them because they will take care of you and not charge you a lot of money. Staff is very nice and knowledgeable as well!”
“10/10 service, 10/10 affordability, 10/10 owner.
Genuinely have never been treated more respectfully and kind than how Nick and his amazing team did yesterday 4/26/2024.
Was driving on the highway and felt my car swaying, luckily I had met Nick about 2ish weeks ago at my job and he mentioned his shop.
Never did I think I’d need it but turns out after a quick check my control arm was snapped in half.
Not only did Nick show me what was going on he walked me through it and sure enough about 10 mins later he was on his way to pick up a part for me.
I really thought I’d be out of a car for a few days but nope, 3 pm rolls around and I get a call that it’s not only done but done an hour earlier than I was told!
A huge Thank you to Nick and his team, I’ll be back for new tires soon!
I’m a 23 yr old female so the feeling of being taken advantage of comes hand in hand walking into a mechanic shop, but not this one. You’ve got a customer for life and more business coming your way.”
“I showed up to the repair shop unannounced because my work car had a little issue with the bottom cover. The mechanic took me in 5 mins , fixed the cover in 10 mins, wished me to have a great day and let me go back to work. Wow,it was a kind gesture and I am grateful for it. Thank you so much!”
“I’ve been going to Tire Connections for about seven years now. They are competent, fair and reliable. The staff is friendly and explains the work they are doing. I even went there after my car had been repaired from an accident and they put my car on the lift and went step-by-step to show me what on the itemized repair list was done and not done. Highly recommend!!!”

“Always had a good experience here. The previous manage Eric, the new manager Jamie and the technicians were very friendly staff. Was able to get the job done very quickly. Highly recommend them for you auto needs. Thank you guys!”
“So I was involved in a collision near this place and I pulled out from traffic and parked in here. While waiting for a tow truck the owner came out and offered me a soda was extremely nice ! I would definitely go to a place and have work done. This guy truly is a nice guy and I would trust him with any repair! He truly cares and that’s hard to find nowadays…. Thank you for your kindness”
“Took both mine and my girlfriend’s car to this shop for an oil change a couple weeks ago. The gentleman who owns this place is very polite and professional and he had the oil in our cars changed in a very quick and timely manner. He also was happy to accommodate the fact that I had my own oil and filter. I was very happy with the pricing and the punctuality of this place. The owner also took time to chat with me while the service was being provided. I will definitely be back here going forward and highly recommend this shop to other people in need of auto care.”

“I have been coming here since they opened. They now require appointments, but they are so fast it’s not a problem. Most times I am in and out within 15 minutes. I also appreciate that they don’t try to sell all sorts of extra stuff like other oil change places. The owner/manager is always polite and respectful.”
“I came in for an oil change without an appointment. Got me in and out in about 40 mins. Very fast! I also liked how they didn’t try to make me buy extra stuff for my car!”
“We own stone auto repair nearby in Lombard and buy From this junkyard all the time they always have the best deals for motors and transmissions and modules and more I highly recommend. Ray told me about this place.”
“What he ability to deal with Sultan Matariyeh, the finance manager and found it to be a no stress experience. Sultan was extremely knowledgeable and walked us through every step of the process. He made sure we read and understood all the required material about the automobile. He gave numerous options on every required item and explained the good and potential downside of each. I highly recommend working with Sultan as he is truly customer oriented.”

“What a great group to work with! Bird is great at keeping you updated with the progress of your vehicle. And as a fellow VW owner, he is very precise in making sure everything is up to VW standards. They also provided my finished car on time without any delays and looks amazing! Even Sonia at the front desk is super nice and compassionate. I hope I never have to use their services again, but in the event I do, I know I'll be in good hands!”

“I always bring my cars here for work. Brought it in for an alignment, and found that there was a defective tierod that was causing my steering wheel to be slightly crooked when driving straight. Honest company, they dont just tell you whats wrong to try to rip you off, they show you the issue before they start work. They work quick and efficient also. Also got wheel hub bearings replaced at a good fair price.
No complaints and would recommend them.”
“They were really kind and helpful and got me tons of discounts and were really quick with their work too. Especially Jonathan, i hope i got the name right. I needed the car worked on asap as i had to be somewhere and they were quick.”
“Lombard Il location. GREAT! Ike and Olivia gave fantastic service. Showed genuine concern for the service I needed. I will definitely go there fir service of my other vehicles.”

“Best tire shop in Chicagoland bar none.
Sure, you could save $20 and buy cheaper somewhere else. But why risk getting cheap tires from unskilled technicians who don’t know how to properly balance a tire and then use an impact wrench to tighten your lug nuts causing your alloy rims to be distorted? Where’s your $20 savings now?
Seriously. I’ve had that happen. Don’t let it happen to you. Go to DuPage. Best tire shop around! Honest and knowledgeable experts.”
