The value of an honest answer
Jason brought his Jeep to us after being told he needed more than $2,000 in brake work elsewhere. We inspected the brakes. They were still at about 50%.
Sometimes taking good care of your car means telling you the repair can wait.
“Nick could have easily told me that they needed replacement but to my surprise they were sitting at about 50% and weren’t needed.”
Honest Auto in Plymouth is great. I have used these guys a few times and have never been disappointed in the service from Nick. I brought my jeep in recently to have my brakes inspected after being told elsewhere that I needed them and that they would be $2k plus to replace. Nick could have easily told me that they needed replacement but to my surprise they were sitting at about 50% and weren’t needed. Since they inspected these for free I had them do all of my other recommended services. I will always bring my cars here moving forward.

There’s a difference between being handed a list of repairs and understanding your car. Here’s how we help you make the call.
We explain what we find and prioritize the recommendations, so you can see what needs attention now and what can wait.
Review the recommended work and its cost before the work begins. Ask questions. Take a look at your options.
Approve or decline each service before we get to work. Clear communication continues with text updates along the way.
“The transparency was fantastic.”
Stevi Schwermann · Google reviewI highly recommend Honest Auto! I loved the text scheduling and update system. Drop off was very easy and flexible with clear after hours instructions. Nick took great care to thoroughly detail what was wrong with my car, what he recommended, and prioritized the fixes from most urgent to least. I was able to review the recommendations and see a cost estimate, and then approve or decline each service before work was done. The transparency was fantastic. The work was done very quickly and the cost was very reasonable. Nick even checked in to see how my car was doing a week later. Wonderful customer service & I will definitely be back next time I need a repair!

A closer look.
A clearer explanation.
Under the hood, and on your side
An unfamiliar wobble. A brake concern. An estimate you’d like a second opinion on. Bring us the questions as well as the car.
A thorough look at your vehicle, an explanation of the findings, and recommendations in order of priority.
Understand the condition of your brakes and the work they actually need before deciding on a repair.
Discuss what you’ve noticed, review the estimate, and choose the work you want us to carry out.
Tire sales & installation
Choosing tires is about more than a price tag. We sell and install tires with the consultation and attention to detail you’d expect from Honest Auto.
Ask us about all-season tires with the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rating, and what makes sense for the way you drive through a Minnesota winter.

This was not my first time at Honest Auto, and it won’t be my last. I’ve referred friends and family too! Nick always does a thorough review of the car to let me know where things stand from good shape to needs to be fixed now. As a single woman, it’s hard to find a shop you trust. This one is it!
