Great service. Honest and professional
Campus garage did excellent work on our van. Eric and the mechanics were wonderful to work with.
I've taken my car here twice now. They do a free diagnostic on your car to figure out what is wrong, and are reasonably priced. They aren't cheap by any means, but they're not out to rob anyone either. So they will likely have the best deal compared to the competition. Service is very professional and friendly.…
There isn’t a more qualified or honest mechanic we are aware of in town and we have used 4 separate services over the years. They provide great service at reasonable prices.
Can’t recommend this place enough! I’ve been taking my car here for repairs and service throughout college will continue as along as I’m in Ames. They were able to fit me in day of when I had brake issues and needed a full replacement.
Great service, very quick and good work
Very knowledgeable. Good quality services that are reasonably priced.
Had a airflow sensor fixed
Excellent auto service garage with very experienced and friendly staff.
Excellent service as always. Eric & his crew will fix it & give honest professional estimates before doing work.Thanks!
Always terrific service! I’m grateful that I can usually get an appointment right away. Communication is good, they always call and explain things clearly in a way that I can understand. Prices seem reasonable and fair.
Very knowledgeable about my Porsches ( I have 2) labor rate is about 1/2 of dealers. Communication is excellent keeping customer informed. No waiting area (might be a good thing=). Most important answer to all questions is would I continue to do future business? YES!!!
Cannot recommend Campus Garage enough! They fit me in with a brake issue at the last minute when my regular garage wasn't able to. Knowledgeable, friendly, convenient and affordable. I'll be switching my car care here permanently.
First time customer, definitely will become a regular customer, they were friendly and honest, very trustworthy
Prompt professional polite. Evaluated, quoted cost, performed repairs. Quick and easy. What more could I ask for. Well pleased.
Great service! They were so helpful and efficient! I will definitely return if needed in the future.
Excellent service and great price, definitely will use them again to take great care of all our Audi needs
Friendly staff who know what they’re doing and don’t overcharge you. A great place to take your vehicle.
We've been using Campus Garage for decades! Eric is the best. It's nice to have a local mechanic we know and trust.
Campus Garage got back to me very quickly. Everything from setting up the appointment to the actual work was done very quickly. Each of the staff I talked to was friendly and upfront. I'll be recommending them to anyone I know that needs work. Thanks for everything, guys.
