Walked in hearing a rattling and not knowing what it was. Could have said anything. They told me it was just a loose piece and sent me on my way. Honest guys and they earned my trust right there. I will use them for all repairs here on out and would recommend them to anyone

Have always felt comfortable going here. Gary knew my Grandparents before this location opened, while working with Mr. lovetinsky. I have only gotten oil changed and tires rotation from them regularly. Price has gone up a little over the years, but still reasonable. I have gotten a free shuttle to work in Coralville for the last 6 years, but am starting a job in North Liberty. I'm not sure how far they will shuttle.

I take my car to harapat for everything I can't do myself. It does take a little while to get in because they are always busy but they are worth the wait. They are honest, inexpensive, and just good people!

I am not sure how to feel about this shop. I was quoted $390 for engine work. The guy was considerate to take on the job in a timely manner and was very friendly. a day later, I get a call that the job will take longer than they expected. He offers to put it back together free of charge. Fantastic! I asked for the new total and he says $460, so I appreciated the his work ethic and said $460 is alright. I pick up the car. The job was done properly but my bill was $630.... How? He explains it was 2 extra hours of work, so $150 x 2 but he will bill me for one. He also replaced a part just in case which was $40. I had that part in my garage so if he called me, I would've told him not to. Anyway, he insists that the total is $630 even though I had asked on the phone multiple times to confirm the new quote. Ended up paying $630 for something I was quoted 300-400. Not happy. The job was done correctly so I won't give 1 star.

Gary and his team are the best independent mechanics I've worked with. I've taken cares to them for over 15 years and they've long since win me over with quality work and honest estimates. Years back I had an idle problem on an old Ford Taurus and, unsure what exactly was causing the problem, Gary's shop replaced a part and offered to refund my money and reinstall the old part if that didn't fix the issue. It did and made me a long term customer.
