Central Service & Repair

Highly recommended this place! Took my Tiffin Class A here and they were awesome. Much better than a Freightliner or Cummins coach care facility. They can do it all from cars to tricks and RVs of any size.

These guys and gals have never screwed with me. They get me in quick and shoot me straight. Even over the phone they give me their working diagnosis and what I can expect. It’s like going to a doctor that is extremely brilliant AND has excellent bedside manor. Other garages seem annoyed or put out that they have to work on your car. Central, however, is friendly and happy to help you. This place is the best!

There is no one I trust more with my vehicle. I trust the quality of the work and the trustworthy opinions. I know I’m getting taken care of and that I never have to worry when I take my care to Central Service & Repair.

I’ve been a few times and will go back! They are all about customer service and truth! I had a really bald tire once and they said they just didn’t feel right about letting me leave and driving in it. I hadn’t gone there for that so it wasn’t part of my budget, and they barely charged me for an almost new tire. I felt better about driving after that. They are quick with oil changes, as quick as any Jiffy Lube.

Had an issue with a noise underneath my car. Without an appointment I brought it over at 7am when they opened. The owner Nick met me as he heard the door open. I described my problem to him. He said they would take a look at it and get back to me as soon as they could. I was shocked that they could fit me in and so quickly. I had been googling my issues and expected a repair of $ 2k or more. Nick called me by 9am with the great news that they were able to fix everything for $ 133. I was beside myself, yet another reason I will continue to visit this shop every single time I have any issues. I am 100% confident that the dealer would have charged me at a minimum $ 1000 to do the same fix. Thanks again Nick, hopefully see you only for my regularly scheduled oil changes!
Also after my last visit I was advised to do my own air and cabin filter changes, I ordered them on amazon, watched a youtube video, then for ¼ of the price and 15 minutes of my time had 2 brand new filters and a new set of wipers to boot.

This is a repair shop that sweet talks you and then screws you! I took my vehicle in and had more problems then before. They will tell you to bring it back and will find a new «different «issue that of course cost you more money This will repeat a few more times and your «$ 1500» original quote will end up cost you thousands more… SCAM. After I got wise and on the 4^th issue and of course being told to «bring it back» by Mike… I took it to another shop and it turned out Central Service put the wrong size belt on. The OTHER shop only charged me for the belt and I’m sure Central Service would of charged hundreds.
STAY AWAY… check the filtered Unilocal review and others like Google. I’m filling a complaint with the BBB.

Probably the best auto repair shop I have ever been to!!! I came for service due to emissions failure and everyone was nice and friendly and informative. Being female, you always feel a little uneducated about cars but they explain everything to you in the simplest way possible!!! My fiancée came and got new tires and a service and he also raved about the service. If you are in the suburbs this place is a definite GO TO!!!

I love this place. The NICEST people ever. I’m not very educated on cars and have been ripped off a few times. These guys, and lady at the counter are so friendly. They really care. I now come here for everything and won’t go any place else.

Love these guys — super friendly and always take time to explain what is going on with my car, and what my options are. And not once have I ever felt like they were trying to «up-​sell» me.
Being a female, I HATE having to going to repair shops… All you ladies know what Im talking about — you come in for an oil change and end up with a 3 page list of «urgent» repairs needed for your car… and somehow the most «urgent» of them always end up being the most expensive ones on the list… Really guys? Urg…
But this place is TOTALLY different. I drive all the way from the city to come here and its WELL worth it!
Bottom line — I wont take my car anywhere else. Highly recommended :)

Not bad. but don’t expect to be in and out on your lunch break. I went in for what I thought was a quick oil change (with appointment) and it ended up taking over an hour to complete. They were very friendly, and I appreciated the time they took to explain possible issues, but they should really find out if you just want an oil change or not, given their widespread-​use of coupons.
The place reminds me of a local «mom and pop» joint you would find down south. After the keys were dropped off in front and the vehicle was ready, it took 20+ minutes for the woman working in front to complete the «work» she had to do in order for me to pay and leave. It just seems like a very archaic operation.

Very good services; not in my local community but found awesome deal on GroupOn and so far, I found it to be worth my time going all the way to this business for oil change and tire rotation.

Picked up a coupon from Groupon that included free oil changes. I went in expecting to be met with a cold shoulder and a hurry-​up-​and-​get-​this-​guy-​out-​of-​here feeling.
I was wrong. I came in and was greeted right away by the owner himself. While I was waiting on my car to receive an oil change the owner sat with my girlfriend and I for a good 15 minutes talking to us and making sure everything was going well while explaining his business and passion for good service.
The oil change was done in a timely manner and everything went smoothly. There was not even a hint of upselling and I never felt uncomfortable while there.
I live in Schaumburg and this is a little bit of a drive just for an oil change but now that I have been there once I don’t think I will go anywhere else for future service of my vehicle.
The entire management and floor team there were very professional and friendly. It is also located in an easily accessible location and well-​kept neighborhood.
I am going back this Saturday for another oil change and I look forward to speaking with the owner again to let him know what I think of his business. As a new resident to Illinois I am happy to know I have found a trustworthy auto business.

Thanks Dealfind! After picking up a deal on 3 oil changes (along with other coupons), I took advantage of my first oil change. I was very impressed with the customer service here. Mike took the time to walk me through everything about the deal and my car.
I felt like my business was important to them and that’s why I’ll definitely be a repeat customer. It feels like it can be difficult to find high quality businesses today but this certainly is one. My best friend had been here before me and felt the same way. I highly recommend Central Service & Repair!
