Took my car in to have a new radiator installed and valve cover gaskets replaced was told over the phone by one of the mechanics they would change the oil. Took new parts and oil for them to use. After which I asked for a receipt to prove history of an oil change and was refused. 10 months later there's another oil leak from the valve covers so I take it to a mechanic that's close to my location. They've informed me the valve covers have not been replaced within the last year or 10k miles. Previous to that I took my car in to Vanznadt's for a brake job, the brakes squealed and grinded after leaving there and each time I went back Jimmy argued saying he couldn't hear anything wrong with them.

Brought a car in with issues starting and door not unlocking with the key. They held the car for an extra 4 days, charged more than what they originally said the repairs would be, and didn't even fix either of the issues the vehicle was having. In addition, they programmed someone's old key to the car as a fob and SANDED DOWN the actual key on the fob and it barely works (picture attached) instead of fixing the door which he entirely left alone when they originally said they could fix it. When we called back, got cursed out by the mechanic when he was asked to take another look at the car. They legitimately stole about $800 from my roommate to do absolutely nothing.

People who are fair and square don’t grow on trees.Car stuff is freaky sometimes and good service is special.So, even though this shop is further from our house and a bit inconvenient, this is our spot. Worthwhile if you need fair and square. If I want a smart, fair assessment, yeah… Jim is the guy.We’ve brought things to Vandzandt’s for a long while. Blessed by the experiences.

Very expensive oil change for $65 dollars and the girl told me I'm getting a good deal. ? I since then get it done at Walmart for $45.00. I'll never go back to them for this with the senseless price gouging they do.Service: Oil change

After my accident, and having almost lost my sanity, I decided to try to save my car once and for all. The car I fought so hard to conquer it. I still have cosmetic problems that I will be able to solve later, but what was up to them to solve was undoubtedly very well done. I needed of course to bring the purchased parts, but they made an exchange of my strut, put my new tire, and gave a new alignment. And my car that was stopped, is back on the road, and all thanks to Vanzandt’s. For a very fair and very profitable price, they did all the services and were very attentive to me. I highly recommend taking your car there, in case you need a quality mechanic and fair price.Services: Tires

I have been to many auto shops over the years, and I started using the big-name dealership that I purchased my car from. Why was I using an overpriced dealership, you ask? I'm glad that you asked. I was tired of being ripped off from the other independent auto shops around Springfield... that was until I tried Vanzandt's Affordable Auto Repair.Not only was I provided with a fair price for the labor and parts, but the parts even came with a lifetime warranty! At another repair shop (several to be precise), I was quoted over double the price for parts and labor, but it was only with a 12 month, 12,000 mile warranty, FOR 2.5 time the price and warranty that was offered to me by Vanzandt's. After seeing their work and honesty upfront, I will NEVER take my car to another auto repair shop as long a I live in the SGF area.Thank you Vanzandt's for restoring my faith in auto repair shops.

This place was cool to take my car to until My radio didn't work after they messed with it and then told me it was like that when I brought it in. SMH I immediately found a better and reliable mechanical service. Other than that, Very affordable services.

They were super nice! They were conversational and funny and made me feel so welcome. They were super quick and to top it off They properly pronouned me! I know for some that's silly but for me it's a pretty big deal. I will be using them again! <3Service: Vehicle Inspection

First time I used them was very satisfied, however the last time I used them I had an appointment for 8 am and my car didn't get started on until after 1:30. I was told a price on the phone, then was charged more than double. Though I have a warranty on my parts through them I likely won't go back.
