New to Kansas, had difficult time to find a decent shop where they can be straight forward and not too focused on trying to sell 'too early' preventive maintenances. And this place was it. After hour drop off was simple, diagnostic cost was very reasonable and then they even applied discount. Fixed my vehicle's…

I rarely take the time to write reviews, but Chase absolutely deserves recognition. From the moment I walked into the shop, he went above and beyond to provide an outstanding customer experience. Chase was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly detailed throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable and informed every step of the way. What impressed me most was how much he genuinely cared—not just about the vehicle, but about making sure I was completely satisfied with the service. His patience and willingness to go the extra mile made a huge difference, and it was clear that he takes great pride in his work. His attention to detail, honesty, and commitment to doing the job right were second to none. He was thorough, transparent, and always kept me updated, which gave me complete confidence that my vehicle was in the best hands. It’s rare to find someone who combines technical expertise with such exceptional customer service. Chase treated me like family, not just another customer, and made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. What really sets Chase apart is his positive attitude and dedication to excellence. He consistently exceeded my expectations and demonstrated a level of professionalism that is hard to find these days. You can tell he truly cares about his customers and wants the best outcome for every person who walks through the door. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, caring, and truly dedicated to excellence, ask for Chase. He sets the standard for what great service should be and is a tremendous asset to the shop. Thank you, Chase, for making this one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at an auto shop!

My engine was destroyed on my 2018 Mazda 3 due to an incident on the expressway so I had it towed to Dipman Auto Service in Olathe. I consulted with Barth Nicholson at Dipman and of course my insurance company. Both parties coordinated everything and just about a week or so later, my car was fixed. They located a used engine that was a great match for my car with less miles than my original. They replaced the starter and of course the engine along with a couple other smaller things. I picked my car up yesterday and it’s running great and back to normal. I want to thank Barth and Dipman Auto and specifically the techs that worked on my car. This was the first new car I’ve ever purchased and it’s been a great car. Like I said, it’s a 2018 Mazda 3 so it’s nothing fancy but I’ve grown attached to this car and I’m grateful I’m able to keep it. I took it to the car wash today and detailed the inside. She’s shining and running smooth as ever. Thank you Dipman Auto Service!! - Jon Harris (Olathe, KS)

Dipman Auto Service was a great experience. I was visiting my brother from out of town when my thermostat failed. My brother has been taking his vehicles here for a decade. They got it in the very day and had it repaired same day. They made sure everything was right including a follow up check up so I also had them do an oil change. I would go back to them in a hot second. Barth and crew were professional, expert, and welcoming. 5 stars. Thanks guys!
