Select Auto Service

Was referred to Select Auto Service because he was a local mechanic in Ann Arbor. Called Joe to give me a quote because I already knew what the issue was. He came back with a quote that warranted a red flag, so I made some phone calls to the dealership and he was $700 over dealerships quote. I go and pick up my car and he charged me $160 for putting a quote together and feel he was dishonest with his labor rates on how long it would take to repair the vehicle.Its sad when you have to trust a dealership more than a local mechanic shop!

I brought my VW Tiguan here anytime it had anything major that needed fixing. They are honest and always double check for themselves that the dealers diagnoses is correct. They always come in cheaper than the dealer. Also they always estimate the time needed for the repair correctly. Love Select Auto!

Recommend this place. Subaru dealership in Ann Arbor wanted to charge $6300 for a problem with air conditioner and I got it fixed here for under $200. (The dealership did not diagnose the problem correctly in spite of charging over $300 to perform the diagnostic).

Long story short, I purchased a used 2017 Lexus RX350. Had it inspected by Lexus dealership before purchasing and they told me it needed rear shocks and a timing cover reseal. so I called shopping around for quotes and between the four different mechanics that I called all rated 4+ in the ann arbor area, this was the only shop that took 10 minutes explaining the timing cover reseal problem and kindly told me he didn’t have enough staff to perform that kind of work. As for the rear shocks some gave me quotes more than what the dealers prices were and other slightly below. This shop quote was the most fair, affordable and cheapest amongst the bunch. BTW non of the other shops agreed to take on the timing reseal job for whatever reason. To top it off this was the only shop that gave me a call back with a quote within an hour. I had to call the other shops again next day to get my quote. To the person I spoke to (believe it was Joe) thank you!

They are fair, qualified, serviceable and worry free. You can not go wrong. We have been using them for over 8 years now stared in the fall of 2014. Our car suddenly could not start - several garage I called started to bring us astronomical cost to tow the car and change many pieces. Our interaction with them made a lasting impact on me: Joe asked me over the phone "hey did you try the spare key? If this work - it is just the battery in the key! This will just cost you a few bucks to buy one at the grocery store". He was right. I called back and said I wanted to pay and he told me "are you kidding? I am just glad we could help you". Are they inexpensive? Or expensive? When I talk with friend everybody agree that they are fair priced mechanics for the Ann Arbor area. They are extremely serviceable and honest and helpful. Once we dropped the car while we were overseas for vaccay - Joe texted me all the informations and cost. We discussed by text message. He had to adapt to me and so he did. We came back to a perfectly running car. Outside of many repairs, on two different cars and many from our friends and family... A repair failed a few months later (a year to be fair) - they abide in their warranted work without a question or any problem. This happens, this is part of the game - glad I could count on them.
