Clintonville Automotive Repair Service

I cannot say enough about the kindness of the people working at this place. I was in the middle of an absolute crisis and Gary was such warm and understanding human. And the people who checked me out were also so warm and kind! They knew that I needed any sort of break, human kindness and understanding. As for my car, they got in back in working condition in no time! They truly seem to care about you. Which is very nice and refreshing. I can’t ever say enough thank yous to them.

I have been coming to CARS for almost 5 years, and they have always been wonderful. As a woman who has limited car knowledge, it's hard to find a place that won't take advantage of you, but CARS is one of those places that doesn't. Most recently, to potentially save me a lot of money, Paul went out of his way to research if my car's problem would be covered by the dealership since it was a common problem for Hyundais, something I would never know or consider. They have also monitored a problem on my car for years that I mentioned hoping not to have to pay for until finishing graduate school. They could easily lie and tell me it needs to be fixed now, but for a couple years now, they have told me at each oil change that it hasn't progressed. I'll be really sad to lose this place when I move out of town!

DO NOT COME HERE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A WOMAN! YOU WILL BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF! First off: rude as heck! Me and my friend’s van broke down on the side of the road the night before bc of a radiator leak. When we came in and asked for help the guy at the front said, “well here’s what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna charge you $150.59 regardless if I fix it or not, then if we decide to fix it it’ll just go up from there.” My friend asked “How much does it cost to fix a radiator?” He said “I’ll charge you $909 and that’s not including a coolant flush which will be $233.” It was like he was pulling these prices from his butt. And a coolant flush is PART OF THE PROCESS. That’s like going to the dentist and then charging you to rise your mouth out after they cleaned your teeth. This company saw 2 woman who were from out of town who were just looking for some help. And he tried to take advantage of us. Luckily we aren’t stupid and have ppl looking out for us. But I advise any women coming here alone, to NOT! They WILL take advantage of you. When we went to tell him no thank you, he was on the phone chit chatting with his buddy and we were trying to wave to be polite and he completely ignored us as if we weren’t even there. DO NOT COME HERE! We ended up buying our own parts at autozone (my uncle has a commercial discount so that saved some $) but we went down to BERNIE’S and they only charged us 2 hours worth of labor. We got our Radiator changed, upper and lower radiator hose change, coolant flush and re-stocked, thermometer changed and a coolant fan changed. All in all, for paying for our parts plus labor, we walked away paying $589.16 Where THIS GUY TRIED TO CHARGE OVER $1,300 , AGAIN, TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF WOMEN AND OUT OF TOWNERS! GO TO BERNIES!

I was impressed from the minute I made the appointment and along every step of the way. Everything was explained to me and they truly went above and beyond for me to make sure that I had a reliable car and peace of mind. They have made a loyal customer out of me!

The folks at Clintonville Auto have serviced our vehicle on several occasions and they are always very thorough in their diagnosis and thoughtful of how that is going to impact us financially. They have worked with vendors as well as their own staff to keep costs reasonable and stick to the estimate that they provide. I would highly recommend these guys to anyone looking to have their vehicle serviced by trustworthy individuals.
