Loved how transparent they were with my repairs and the surprise repair needed!!
They were fast, efficient, and incredibly kind—from the woman who answered the phone to Jason, whom I had the pleasure of working with throughout the entire process. The team at Scott’s truly went above and beyond to help me get my rear differential repaired properly and make sure everything was done right. They…
First off, everyone there is absolutely outstanding in their ability to not only fix, but also and most importantly provide an interpretation of your vehicle's actual issues from what you told them. Anything involving "It makes this weird..." or "When I drive it, it does..." can apparently be completely understood…
I will always bring my van here. Great service and great prices!
Awesome crew, serviced a work truck for us in Des Moines. Thanks Scott's Automotive!
We have taken both of our cars here a few times and they always do a great job!
I was recommended by a friend for "Scott's Automotive Services Inc." and now have found mechanics that know what they are doing and very friendly and professional. I will be using them from now on for all my vehicles. I am very Happy their services.... and recommend them ..... Thanks Scott's Automotive, Chris My…
Thank you for the attention to detail you take with each service request I need. This last visit was for a second opinion on a variety of issues. I moved out of town and tried to find a local mechanic. No one I have found is as HONEST, reliable and can get my car in rather quickly than Scott’s Automotive. You can…
I was recommended to go to Scott’s, actually by a different shop. Scott’s team did a great job on our Silverado. The communication was great and the turnaround was quick. They did such a good job, when I went to pick up the truck, I dropped off our older Explorer for new tires and an alignment. Highly recommended!
Shop is clean and inviting. Staff was friendly and knowledgable. I had a great experience and would recommend this repair shop to everyone.
Excellent service! Emergency tow, response time very good. Repairs and maintenance taken care of timely dispite their busy schedule. They kept me informed. I am always pleased with their thorough, professional service.
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS! Five stars! Scott, Dustin and the rest of the crew are so professional and knowledgeable. I knew I was in the best hands possible. Major wheel replacement along with other “things” that needed replaced. Detailed written information was provided followed by a phone call to review…
It's running good, curious did you do something with the PVC valve problem, the check engine light was off.
Clean friendly and great service. Reasonably priced as well as paynent options! Love the staff! Will not take my vehicle anywhere else. Highly recommend!
AMAZING customer service!!! I have been using Scott’s for all of my cars for over 10 years!! They are easy to work with and repairs are done right in very little time. I refuse to go anywhere else!
They repaired our rear arm control among other things on my Santa Fe. They did a great job. Kept in communication with us through it all and great prices! Also backed by AAA! Will continue to come back!
