Worth the visit for sure. You have no idea how welcomed and comforted I felt after speaking with Amber and having Chris work on my car. I'm so glad to see this kind of attitude and energy in a mechanic shop here in Idaho Falls. I hope they keep doin what they do best. Honesty, integrity and support not just for the…

Super nice people. They were spot on with the quote they gave me. No surprises and good quality work. This was my first time using them. I have family and friends who used them and they were always happy. They gave updates on the repair process and left a little note from the tech who did the work....and a cookie my wife promptly claimed as hers!

Needed an emergency repair. Josh worked me in immediately and got me on the road right away. I have never had a bad experience with Oswald's. The above was posted a year ago and I wanted to add to it. I have been a customer of Oswald's for six or seven years. Kevin the owner and Josh the service manager bend over…

Oswald’s always does outstanding work. I had a steering box replaced, oil leaks and the A/C repaired. Everything works great and when I’ve had any issues with repairs they have stood behind their work. Great shop and even better people!

I was first impressed with Oswald Service & Repair back in June (2020) when they very quickly did some repair work in multiple areas on the 2005 Subaru that my teenagers drive. I had shopped around and received quotes from other shops but their quote was the lowest so I went with them. Best automotive repair…

Oswalds is the only place that I would take my vehicle. They are trust worthy, efficient and the staff is friendly. They offer the best service all the way around. It is great knowing that a company takes great care of the customers as well as the vehicles.

They are always great about getting work done on time and are very reasonably priced. They checked my car out for other needed repairs. They let me know what the issues were without being pushy about getting the work done.

Tim was an excellent source of giving me options to have my son’s vehicle inspected, 60 point or 91 point, and never tried to persuade me to take the more expensive option. The mechanics did an excellent job of getting numerous repairs done in a timely manner. My son’s car was a mess and now it is running…

I will always take my vehicles to Oswalds. They give you an appointment tell you what it will cost and usually get done the same day. If not they will tell you why and it's usually because there is either a lot of work to be done or the parts weren't there when they were supposed be. There is never a lot of cars…
