Todd and his guys at Foreign Aid are professional, helpful and kind. They provide great service and a variety of pricing options so you can choose the quality of repairs you wish to have. They are awesome over there. I recommend all of my family and friends to use them. I dont know why I havent chosen Foreign Aid sooner. They are located less than a mile from my house.

Called for help with my Jetta. As soon as I told him that I had replaced a part on my own, he said theyre not interested in helping with a vehicle when someone has attempted work on their own. This might make sense from a mechanical perspective, but that is HORRIBLE customer service and completely unprofessional. EDIT: In response to the shops reply: I found a different shop with much better, much more professional service. They got the car fixed in less than a day. Works like a champ! I wont stoop as low as they have with sarcasm and passive aggression. I recommend that anyone looking for help PICK ANY OTHER SHOP. These guys arent interested in helping...

Good service and good people and the jobs done right

Update 12/12/20 This summer it was time to rebuild the engine on our 1969 buggy. Todd and the crew did a great job. Coming in for its 300 mile break in oil change... I left the parking break on and over heated and killed the new engine. Todd stood behind their work and fixed the overheating problem by changing the 2nd new engine to a vertical fan instead of the type 3 pancake fan. He only charged me for parts and he ate the labor. Who does that?Two years ago, I purchased a VW dune buggy and needed some service that I could not do. A dune buggy friend, recommended Foreign Aid Auto. I was impressed with the work of Todd and Jim getting my buggy set up with new wiring and ready to license again. Fair prices and excellent service!

I highly recommend this place. They are high knowledgeable, no overpriced and get the work done in a timely fashion. I will be returning and referring friends and family.

Seemed pretty honest and fair pricing.

Todd is an honest guy. The work done on my cars have always been good. I’ve been taking my cars there for nearly a decade.

Owner is direct and to the point. Great place and great guy.

I have had an amazing experience at Foreign Aid Auto Repair! Not only did they do a quality job on my VW but they finished when they said they would! They are fair and honest. Gunner was amazing!As a young female, I always feel worried that auto shops will take advantage of my lack of car knowledge and overcharge me or not give me quality help. I did not feel this way at Foreign Aid. They walked me through each of the repairs my car needed and did extra work to make sure I was getting the right parts for my car! They gave me a great price for the parts and labor! My car is running smoothly and I walked away feeling great and having peace of mind as to the work done and the price paid! I highly recommend bringing your business here!

Todd was great. Saved me thousands on my 2004 5 series with a simple repair. Very honest guy.

These guys have done work 3 times on my Volvo XC70. One of the best, if not the best shops to have an import worked on. Their attention to detail and pride in their work is outstanding. Everyone in the shop is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They stand by their work and will do anything and everything in their control to ensure their customers have a positive experience.

Todd and his crew rebuilt our vw dune buggy engine. They went over and beyond is see the process through. Their attention to detail is amazing! The buggy runs like factory new. Can I give them 6 stars?

We were traveling through the area when we lost our power steering in our Mercedes Sprinter. We called Steve (owner) and he brought us in right away. He did everything in his power to get it repaired the same day so we could get back on the road. He loaned us a car while working in the van so we could run errands. His customer service was above and beyond what I have ever received by an auto mechanic, especially with no appointment. And it’s not because he wasn’t busy, because he was swamped. He just wanted to help out someone who was a full time traveler and get us up and running. Can’t say enough good things! He then gave us some sight seeing tips for the area and his number if we had any additional problems with the van while in town. Thanks Steve!!

Having an European car isnt easy. As we all know, they can be pretty complicated and pricey to pay for and maintain. If it werent for Auto Aid, Id honestly sell my Audi and get something else 😂. They make the experience so easy and affordable. I once was quoted $1400 for a fix that Foreign Aid did for $700. They know their cars and do a great job. 10/10, 5 Star, 2 thumbs up!!!

Great customer service

Ive been here twice with my 2005 LR3. They diagnosed the problem quickly, fixed the problem quickly and charged a fair price. I like them.

I was referred here by a close friend of mine that has had several vehicles from all over the world get fixed here. I have a newer VW that I put some serious engine damage to and they guided me through the entire process. Im not an expert, but the whole team explained things to me to where I had an understanding. If you are looking for honest, hard work, go here.

Been going here since Finn and his mullet. These guys are always great and willing to share thier knowledge.

Super friendly and knowledgeable

Todd & the crew at Foreign Aid are awesome to work with. They are honest to a fault & always take excellent care of their customers. On several occasions they have gone beyond what was necessary to make my experience very pleasant.I highly recommend Foreign Aid for any work on overseas makes (Audi, VW, BMW, Jaguar, Saab, etc.).

Bad experience.. rude staff.

These guys are great

Todd was great! They got me and my car in for a ATF change in about 24 hours. They gave me the best quotes for the service and really helped me feel confident about the service. They were informative and patient. They got my car out in roughly three hours and runs so smooth now. Thanks guys!

The best Auto repair store for my car😀😀😀💥💝

I took my car in last year when a guy sold me a lemon. They looked at and told me its not even worth fixing. He didnt even charge me for him to look at it. I really appreciated that.

Great people!Honest, fast and clear with what they do. I’ll always bring my Volkswagen over all the time 😃

I went in to get what I had been told by other car shops was a huge VERY expensive maintenance done on my BMW and they surprised me with half the cost I was told it was going to be. Not only did they fix my car for a lot cheaper than I had been told, but their knowledge of natural kindness was amazing. If you have a foreign car I would say this should be the first and only place you should go. Best car shop I have ever been to and I will be a lifelong customer.

Had a lot of work that needed to be done on my BMW, and he was able to perform the work at a lower cost than two other estimates. He used GREAT products and took care of my car like it was his own. Thanks Todd!

Ive been using Foreign Aid for all of my auto repairs for several years, and they are my go to auto shop in Utah County. They explain everything that they need to do to repair your car, and give you the other options to a complete repair if there are any. Once the repair is complete, they would always bring out the broken part and show me what the problem was, and even offered to let me keep the broken part if I wanted (I never took them up on the offer). These guys are honest, no nonsense mechanics, and when there was a problem with the initial repair, they took care of the follow up visit with no additional charge. Ive recommended Foreign Aid to several friends, and feel compelled to let anyone cruising Google Reviews know that this is a good place to take your car to get fixed.

Great service Todd is great and explains everything very well. Just got my 70 bug and these guys got her up and running well, still needs a little love but these guys have earned my trust and will continue to make it perfect. I will be back soon.!

Foreign Aid took care of our BMWs for years, always one time and get the job done.Work done on BMW 90, E60, E46, F10, X4 and X6.

I drive a Land Rover, which are picky vehicles. They shouldnt be taken just anywhere to be fixed; Foreign Aid Foreign Auto Repair is a certified repair shop for Land Rovers. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, and quick. I had a good experience there and will definitely be going back.

This place was very quick and fixed my Audi for a wonderful price! These guys know what they are doing.

I’ve been coming to Foreign Aid since 1999, and have always had quality honest work, at a fair price. I’ve now brought 30+ cars here and won’t go elsewhere.

Good, solid and quick work.for very decent prices. They do a quality job on my 04 Saab and the owner and all the mechanics are nice, helpful, and explain their work in hood detail. I really appreciate it.

They Are the best! I highly recommend them! I took my car to Jeffy Lube for an oil change and have them check my breaks. They were going to charge me at least 300$ to fix them... and I called my mechanic at foreign aid and they said to just bring the car in, it cost me less than 73$. They are super honest, will never try to tell you to fix something that doesnt need it and always charge a fair price for what needs to be fixed. I love those guys and wouldnt want to take my little car anywhere else!

Very helpful and the operation seems legit. I had a check engine light on and the codes. The owner of the shop checked it s d reset it free of charge and said the light was on because the car hadnt been driven enough on the freeway to burn the build up in the catalytic converter. Weve driven the car a couple hundred miles since and the check engine light has not come back on. The guy was very helpful despite being busy with scheduled work.

I took my mercedes-benz into Foreign aid, Because my air conditioner was not working. Todd was extraordinarily knowledgeable about my problem.The fan under the dashboard was bad. Gunner fix it in a timely manner, add the Freon and I was on my way. They were reasonably priced. I would Highly recommended this company to my Friends and Neighbors.

Hard to find a good rover shop these guys fixed it up good and half the price of the dealer

This shop always treats me well when I bring my Range Rover in for service. Im quoted very reasonable prices, and the entire staff treat me well, and repair my car right the first time! I highly recommend this mechanic for any service on your Land Rover!

Slow, bad estimates, over priced and they dont take responsibility if they screw something up.If you are dumb enough to buy a BMW then you deserve this place.

I have been going to their shop for 5 years now. Todd has always been honest and helped me get the parts I need at fair prices. I enjoy doing business with them, and Im glad I found mechanics that I can trust.

Todd and his team did a great job on my X5 back on the road same day and took care of my oil service at the same time

Would recommend this place to any person who has a Volkswagen Audi Mercedes or Porsche. They can literally fix anything and if they cant then let you know where to go how to do it and what itll cost. Theyre very upfront and you can tell how honest they are. I had a 2003 Volkswagen passat with a W8 motor. It was a very rare car and they were the only people in the valley who were willing and experienced enough to fix it. They pulled all of the bad parts out laid them on a table showed them to me asked me what I wanted to do after explaining all the options. Todd and his crew are the most intelligent and thorough mechanics I have met.

I wouldnt take my imports anywhere else. The guys at Foreign Aid are very knowledgeable and they dont sugar coat anything. They don’t try to take advantage you, and it’s nice to have an ally. They charge reasonable rates for quality work. I just wish I didn’t have to visit them so often...

Todd (owner) is an honest man. I had taken my 06 BMW to a different shop and they diagnosed it with needing a head gasket replaced, which I thought was a bit absurd. They also wanted $2800 to do the job. I took it to Foreign Aid for a 2nd opinion and Todd told me that it was not the head gasket, it was the oil filter housing gasket that needed to be replaced (common problem with BMWs). Im very pleased with the level of honesty and trust. I do recommend this automotive repair shop.

I chose to go to Foreign Aid due to the good reviews they had online and from a recommendation. I took my 2010 Passat in for a inspection to determine where an oil leak was coming from. Todds (the owner) team inspected it and determined it was coming from an leaking pump. I had the repair made and the cost ended up being over $600 dollars. Todd charged me two hours for labor even though it took only one hour. I waited in the lobby for the repair so I was aware of the time. I questioned Todd for the extra hour of labor. His response was, the manual called for two hours so thats what we charge. If a job takes over the recommended time we only charge the manual rate. So, i paid $90 towards someone elses repair. I drove my car home and the leak was still present. I called and they said it was probably residual left over from the repair. I keep checking after driving and the leak never stopped. I took it down to Foreign Aid and Todd looked under it and cleaned off the oil with air. He said it was residual oil left over from the repair. I drove home and now a few weeks later the leak is still present. I had an appointment today where they looked at it again and determined it is another issue. $280 repair. What upset me was Todd said, that I said the new repair stopped the leak for two weeks. I immediately said thats not true. It was leaking the same day I left after the first repair. He insisted that was what I said I told him you must have me confused with someone else. He said Well thats what I remember. He insisted he was correct. I will never give my business to him again. He is not the honest man I thought he was.

Excellent service. They do really good work that is detailed and complete. I take several of my Audis there. I have never had the car not right when I pick it up.

These guys are super honest and provide great work. Would recommend them if you have a foreign car.

Dylan and Jim are experts I love their advice and speed.

Really honest mechanic. Fixed my ford pickup a couple months ago in a timely fashion and for a really good deal! I havent had a problem with it since!

Always honest. Always looking out for his customers. Todd is awesome. Been using him for 6 years now on 5 cars. Never a problem.

I had a Volkswagen Passat W8 (very rare motor) that skipped a tooth on the timing. They were fast efficient and kept me updated every step of the way. The car ran better than when i bought it! Best auto repair place in Utah.

Taken my car here twice now and its been great. Fast turnaround, friendly service, honest work. Highly recommend for those with VW and BMWs.

I was having electrical problems/transmission faults last week. Big mistake taking to the dealership in Lindon, they told me it would be $2,500!! $1,500 for replacing a sensor. Took my BMW 328xi here instead and they were able to fix my car in less than two days (fast) by replacing my alternator regulator and battery. It was less than $600. Todd showed me the broken part and how it broke and told me how long I should expect my current alternator should last. Dang I wish I would have taken my car here for repairs long ago! So much $$$ wasted.They are honest, fast, and it feels nice to trust somewhere with your BMW.

Honestly, I only called the guy to get an idea of what my project might cost. I had contacted 5-6 other shops and was trying to find the best price and shop that could turn it as quick as possible. The guy was very rude. After explaining the Job I needed done he quoted me some absurd price and then over double the shop hours that any of the previous shops did.

The owner was super nice and I feel that he would be super nice to anyone one. Definitely a good place to do business.

Todd and his crew were fast and professional

Great people to work with! They even show you what they replaced, and always give the best deals!

Took my Nissan Armada in to Foreign Aid to have cracked and leaking exhaust manifolds repaired. BTW, horrible Nissan customer service, wouldnt do anything to stand by their product, even though this is a widely known defect. Last Nissan product Ill ever buy! Foreign Aid was awesome. They got my car right in, did the work for the price quoted, and had my car back to me the next day. Runs like a charm. Foreign Aid was recommended to me by a buddy, and they did not disappoint. 3 stars!

Foreign Aid auto repair is the best! I go there for all my car troubles. They are fast, friendly, efficient, and always give me a good deal.

My heater wasnt working in my 2000 Audi and here in Utah that is not a good thing!! I took it to a place in Orem and they said I needed a new heater core: $1500!!!My friend recommended Foreign Aid Auto, I took a chance and it paid off BIG time. They were able to fix it for $160. I almost cried! Thank you, thank you thank you Todd!

I cant recommend this place to anyone. We would take our cars there a few years back. We never had any oil leaks in either of our cars, but after getting our oil changed here in both cars, both cars had oil leaks. One we werent aware of until it was too late (we should have found it though).Maybe they do other things well, but dont get your oil changed here.

I always get excellent service here. The staff never makes me feel stupid, even when I lack the right vocabulary. They always save the damaged parts and explain what happened.

Had rod knock in my engine on my 06 Impreza. Called so many shops to get a diagnosis but they all beat around the bush, like a doctor who just cant quite tell you your baby has cancer. Foreign aid was straight up, ordered my parts for me, and got a brand new motor put in it in under 8 hours of labor. Extremely satisfied with the service I received and I look forward to bringing my car here every time I need something done!!PS the air conditioner was broken, and that was fixed, too!

My wife drives a Mercedes E320 4Matic. Driving down the freeway she lost all power, I thought it was the transmission. Had it towed to this shop and they figured out that it was a broken axle. They got the part, fixed it quick, and had me back on the road. Very satisfied! Thanks!

These guys worked on my 1973 vw bus and did a great job. My bus has never ran so good! Thx

I never felt so lucky about having my car break down 900 miles from home.After completing 6000 miles of a 7000 mile road trip, my 2003 convertible Saab “puked” oil on the highway as I left my hotel in Grand Junction. Using a Saab mechanic onlin search, there were two choices in Grand Junction and luckily the first one didn’t answer the phone because the one that did was Steve at Foreign Aid...though I think of them as “Local Hero.” From the first second, Steve was straight-forward: “I’m busy, but I’ll take a look at your leak.” He asked all the right questions, even though my knowledge about cars is small. He also saw the predicament I was in: far from home with my 3-yr old daughter, who he gave candy and WiFi access to keep her occupied as the car got diagnosised.Being a teacher - I asked him for his opinion if saving an old car like this was worth it vs the cost to fix, and after estimating the parts providing a high and low estimate, with the car not having many miles, he recommended fixing.Steve also was accommodating about a timetable. I wanted to get my daughter home, and he made it work for me to leave the car for nearly two weeks. When retrieving it, I successfully got to the car back home to San Diego.My personal favorite quote - “With all those European cars out front, do you sell cars too?” Steve’s response: “I can’t sell cars. I’m too honest.” He also is a wealth of wisdom about western Colorado, and gave me a couple local peaches to compare to my home state of New Jersey’s peaches. (Palisades peaches are quite sweet.)I don’t know if he only works on European cars, but if I lived locally, I’d bring any car I owned to him. I also liked that not once did he remind me that Saab isn’t in existence, which happens a lot with car guys.Like I said - how lucky was I to break down on the I-70 five miles from the Foreign Aid.

Todd charged me 20 dollars less than he quoted me to get work done on my land rover and got it done a day earlier than expected if thats not good business I dont know what is.(HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

Love these guys. Knowledgeable, helpful, I never worry about their diagnosis

4 years in the area, theyve done all the work on my two BMWs, including my 74, so theyre familiar with vintage cars too. Totally happy.

I cant say enough good things about Foreign Aid. On the way home from work, my car started making weird noises. I had work done on my car a few months previously at the Toyota dealership, and it had cost $1,300. I was afraid I wouldnt be able to make it all the way home, so I pulled into the nearest auto shop, which was Foreign Aid. I pulled in at 5:45, and their sign said they closed at 5:30. I went to the door hoping it would still be open, and it was. The man sitting inside was clearly off duty, but offered to run a diagnosis on my car.After finding the problem, which was a bad spark plug (which was what the dealership had fixed months earlier), Gunnar told me they could fix it the following day for about $10 in about 15 minutes. My car was under warranty at the dealership, so I gave them a call. They said they couldnt get to it for 2 days. By this point I was sitting in my car, wondering if I would be able to drive to an event I had planned on attending 20 minutes away. I walked back to the front of the store to ask Gunnar if my car would last that far. The door was locked this time, but he came and unlocked it. He had changed out of his work clothes and was clearly ready to go home.I asked him my question and told him what the dealership had told me. He went to the back and got a spark plug for me, and said he would change it for me really fast. By this time, it was almost 6:30 pm, a whole hour after they had closed. Gunnar was so kind and polite, and thorough in his explanation of what was happening with my car. He definitely didnt need to stay after for so long to help me, but he did.I only ended up being charged $2.78 for the spark plug. I couldnt believe it!!! I know the dealership wouldve charged me way more, and probably wouldnt have been so kind. THANK YOU GUNNAR AND FOREIGN AUTO!!! Ill definitely be returning with any car problems in the future.

ALWAYS, ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!! My mother has been taking her cars to Jim and Todd for more than 10 years now and they are ALWAYS so kind to her and ALWAYS are VERY INEXPENSIVE for the tremendous work they do on her 15 year old BMW740i Msport and Mercedes E430 4-matic. They are also EXTREMELY HELPFUL and KIND with me with my Mercedes ML55 AMG!!! The BEST KNOWLEDGE and PRICES in the STATE!!!

Good work, good prices.

I chose Foreign Aid because they are one of the few shops around that will work on my Saab. They have been honest and fair with me, and they do a good job.

I took my car in for a noise that the motor was making. They sold me a new engine and even after fixing it, it continued to make the same noise. The new engine leaked oil all over my driveway. They told me oil leaking was normal for a new engine and that I should just get used to the engine noise. I took it somewhere else and had the engine replaced and now there is no noise and no oil leak. I should seriously consider suing them.

Foreign Aid Auto Repair has the most reliable and affordable mechanics in the state of Utah.

Highly recommend this mechanic shop

Awesome Trustworthy Mechanics! I will be back...because I drive a Volvo!

Great customer service.

They have a passion for doing carsYou can fully trust them and a shop like this is hard to findI never have to worry about their prices as they are always fair

I had taken my E430 in because some one had cross threaded my lugs and they needed to be re taped, they did it and found a broken emergency brake part broken fixed it no charge. while i waited no less ill be back

Great, they are experts in bmws

I found Foreign Aid Auto on google and I took my Mini Cooper in to have my entire AC system fixed. They had it done within two days and they charged me less than what was quoted. They are what car care and customer service should be.

Front counter guy has serious anger issues and a short fuse! Threw phone at wall after I asked a question. Crazy that in this day and age people like that can still be in business.

Went above and beyond to help me resolve my issue that others could not and then gave me a very fair price that beat other estimates.

Worst experience I have had with an auto shop. Called on the phone to ask for advice and he asked for my credit card info because I was wasting his time. Go to another shop that actually has time to answer questions.

Foreign car expert

Solid
