I Strongly Recommend!I have been using Uptown Auto Repair for a long time. I have never been disappointed with the quality of work they delivered. I have always dealt with Norm and he has proven himself to not only be honest and fair but goes beyond regular service to find the best deal on parts. He also doesnt just charge you the recommended labor hours. He actually gets things done quicker without sacrificing quality.

Really nice guys. Pulled into the post office across the street when my alert went off that I had low tire pressure, then found a screw in the front tire. I was about to head out on a weekend trip and surely had a look of desperation!I pulled in to the shop, less than 15 minutes later the tire was plugged, filled with air and I was on my way for a reasonable price. I likely wouldn’t have questioned any price but it was low and reasonable and they got me going so quickly!Thanks guys!

UAR was priced well, helpful, and timely. Will definitely return for any auto work.

Fast friendly service. Reasonable priced

Norm is the best. Always will to do the right thing and if one has an older vehicle always willing to provide options. Thank you Norm. Ray 07 xc90

I had a screw in my tire and they put a plug in. The job took less than a half hour and the price was reasonable.

First time working with Norm and his team. Thoroughly impressed. Exceptional workmanship. Exceptional quality and value for the services performed. Nice to know where to go for my vehicles. Awesome dealing with a fair shop and owner. Thank you Norm! Nino

A friend recommended Uptown Auto Repair to me Im glad he did. What I found was these guys are not only polite from the start but totally professional and on their game to completion of services. Ill be happy to recommend Uptown to everyone I know.

Service and price was great. Norm kept me very informed the whole way through as I had quite a few issues goin on. Glad I found this spot so close to home.

Reliable, honest and timely! Uptown Auto’s expertise is vast and offers good value. I highly recommend them.

We dont live in the area and needed Uptown Auto Repair to replace our punctured tire. Norm was incredibly patient in dealing with our insurance people and finished the job in time. In a situation like ours, we couldnt think of a better professional than Norm who was composed, knowledgeable and extremely helpful.We are really happy that we chose Uptown as the place we wanted our car to be towed to. Thank you to Norm and his team for the amazing work they do.

I have had Norm and his shop take care of my two babies. I have never let anyone touch them other than the dealer. Granted, they might not be Bentleys but they are special to me. About 2 months ago I had them do a compete 50K service. Was on time and reasonable.Recently I had my sister take her minivan up there because I stopped making a list of what I thought was wrong. When she asked what to tell Norm I simply said tell him to fix it. Not many places these days where I would still do that. Thanks UpTown!

A great local place. Nice guys. Reliable service & always done when promised.

Professional and fair priceStayed late to finish the job on a Saturday. Clean facility

Easy to set up appointment and quick work

This place gets it done right. Ive been bringing my work and personal trucks in for years and I have always had a good experience 👍

I always feel confident and well looked after. They are fair and competent. They are the best mechanics that I’ve ever used.

Excellent service and fair prices. I brought my old SUV here after another shop charged me $1450 to repair a bunch of stuff. I was really upset, brought it in, explained it has been round the ringer with other shops, and they took care of me. My Air Conditioner works now (thanks to a can of coolant) and so does my tailgate. They also figured out why the car was making a whistling noise, which every other shop failed to diagnose or fix, despite me asking for them to look into it. If youre nervous about finding someone who is going to cheat you, look no further.

I took my car to this shop on Febuary 12th, 2021, because my car would not start that morning and I suspected that it was leaking one of its fluids. A couple of hours later, they called me and told me that my car had no issues and I could come pick it up.As I was driving to work today(Febuary 16th), my car service engine light turned on and the oil light started flickering. It is also making strange noises while driving. Whatever issues my car has were obviously missed by this shop, and now I have to possibly go without my car during the week and find a different way to get to work. I will not be coming back.

I was having problems with my car, passing my emissions test, the manager Norman is pretty cool guy and very professional, I would definitely willContinue to take my car there and I will also recommend this shop if you are looking to do business with them. Thank you!

Great service, knowledgeable and prices are very fair. Quick turn around on getting the vehicle back as well. Overall - outstanding. Great to see that small businesses like this one can still make it in this day and age.

Great service! I will totally go back there again!

Fantastic service! Local shop with friendly and knowledgeable team of mechanics. They were able to order parts and make repairs with a very quick turnaround while maintaining competitive prices. Thanks again!

Norm and his team of mechanics are top notch. They are friendly, fast and professional. Uptown Auto Repair has fair pricing and offer a wide range of services. Norm takes the time to make sure your visit was a success by texting you the next day. I thought that was above and beyond. I would recommend them to anyone in need of a quality auto shop in the area. I will back when the need arises.

Always excellent service here. knowledgeable, professional, and friendly crew! Highly recommend taking your car here.

Turns out we only needed more antifreeze where they couldve told me a lot worse. I trust these guys with all my familys cars.

A wonderful auto garage! Really good service and realistic prices. Quick and easy! Highly recommended.

Quality of work is absolutely top notch! Customer service is like the good old days - customer is definitely the priority and appreciation for your business is paramount. I highly recommend Uptown Auto Repair - I havent encountered this level of quality and customer service in ages. They can be trusted to not oversell you or provide services that are not needed.

Noticed a slow leak on one of my tires and brought it into Uptown this morning. Fixed and ready to go in

I needed my rear brakes and rotors replaced on my Audi A6. Finding Uptown Auto Repair was a god-send. This place has made it to top on my list of go-too places for anything mechanical to be done on my car. Norm is honest and his word is golden. So glad I stumbled across this place.

Norm and his crew do a wonderful job. The work is always done on time when promised. Norm calls you before fixing something when an unexpected surprise arises. He goes over your options, and I always feel he is being fair and honest. What more can you ask for from your neighborhood mechanic?

Do not use this business. I brought my car in thinking it needed a new clutch. When I went to get my car, after new clutch was installed, I had the same problem. He asked if anyone had worked on the clutch before. I said no, why. He showed me how it was damaged. Looked like someone took a grinder and went to town on my clutch. Obviously, he couldnt put it my car and I couldnt prove he did it. Thief! Problem was the master cylinder, about $150-200. He got me for 1,600.

Great service, knowledgeable and prices are very fair. Quick turn around on getting the vehicle back as well. Overall - outstanding. Great to see that small businesses like this one can still make it in this day and age.

Norm is always polite and explains what needs to be done, and he gets the job done in a timely manner. Trust in a mechanic is hard to find, so glad I found Norm & Uptown Auto. Thank you.

My name is Alex. In my car Toyota Highlander 2004 I had coolant leaked out of engine head gasket. They replaced the engine head gasket and all screws applying special innovative technology to keep new screws in the engine body in place. I am very satisfied with the job they done. The owner and shop personnel pay the attention to each customer and explain with the details the nature of the problems and how to fix them. Its very pleasant environment for the customers. Thank you very much to the owner and the service technicians for the excellent work ! I highly recommend this auto repair shop !

Amazing crews. Got my vehicle in and serviced before the estimated time. Thanks guys and would refer my friends to this place!

They are honest and the pricing is good. I trust them with all my car service

Oil change was quick and at a reasonable price. Also my vehicle servicing was done very well. Nice people working there. Highly recommended!

Amazing crews. Got my vehicle in and serviced before the estimated time. Thanks guys and would refer my friends to this place!

I have always maintained a high amount of skepticism for all auto repair places, but I have repeatedly price checked this place against others on a variety of issues and they’re always the best priced with seemingly good work. This place is probably as good as it gets

Norm is extremely honest and upfront. His prices are fair and he will tell you what you need not what you don’t need. A lot of places sadly are dishonest. I’ve had experiences with dishonest mechanics who wanna charge up on certain parts and labor especially if you have an expensive vehicle sometimes shops might think “well he has the money so he won’t mind paying more. Not here, Norm gives you the diagnosis and will work with you the best he can. You can’t ask for anything more.

The team at Uptown has done really great work on my car several times. Their service was really above an beyond. I initially went there out of necessity but now go out of my way to bring my car there because I trust them. I was given all options that could be done, the best option in their opinion, and no work was done that wasn’t chosen by me. In all cases, the recomended option from Uptown was NOT the most expensive. Thanks again to Norm and the crew at Uptown!!

I found Norm to be straightforward and honest when I took my car in for failing brakes.He told me the calipers were fine, that the one set of brakes still had 50% and that only the one set needed repair. He easily couldve told me I needed everything replaced, as the it seems other shops I have used in the past seem to do (which is why I was looking for a new shop).I appreciate his honesty and I will definitely be returning in the future!

Best place around! Staff is very helpful. Would highly recommend!

This place is fantastic. I cannot recommend a better mechanic to go to. Prices are always honest and work is always thorough.

Norm is always friendly and helpful. Plus, the ride back to my house from Joseph was appreciated. Im no expert, but you do seem to provide good work at a fair price. The only thing was with my oil change. You didnt add windshield-washer fluid, which was empty--is this something you do or not? Has Jiffy Lube spoiled me for life on this? Thanks.

Always top service at a reasonable price! I trust Norm and his team to provide consistent, reliable repairs and maintenance on my familys cars, and I would happily recommend them to anyone.

Overall atmosphere is that everyone belongs. Always nice to walk in and have people know your name.

The owner answered all my questions. He was extremely helpful. This is honestly the first repair place Ive been to that I trust. Very reasonable prices, theyre not trying to rip you off or charge for unnecessary things.

Went above and beyond. So glad I went here. Would highly recommend.

I’m very happy about Uptown Auto repair. I’ve finally found a mechanic who is honest and tells me what’s needed on my cars. His prices are very reasonable.

I have needed a few different things done to my car since moving to Park Ridge in April and every singly time, Uptown Auto Repair has done a great job. They are honest, fair, reliable and quick!

I have had two emergency situations within the year and both times they were able to get me in and fix my car in a fast, stress free, manor.

Honest on price estimate & diagnosis. Provides multiple options on for repairs

Professional guys! Did the job as specified and got me back on the road. Would recommend

This is by far one of the best places in Park Ridge to get your vehicle worked on. They are always cordial, honest, and complete repairs in a very timely.

Professional, efficient and well priced!

Friendly people. Great service. Timely. My car looks brand new. I definitely recommend their work and services.

The service I received was outstanding. Mike your shop is a bit of a distance from my home but we will be bringing both cars to you in the future. I would recommend your shop to anyone that is in need of your service. P.S. Your Dog is Beautiful.

The tech did not pressure me into spending extra money and was upfront about the different solutions to my car problems. I highly recommend them!

Whenever you find a man with integrity, you need to maintain that relationship. Norm is a man of integrity and a great mechanic that I will always go to when I have car problems.Mike Duffy

McGarrys did a great job for us. We needed a headlight and turn signal casing replaced. We stopped by in the morning to inquire, they had the part shipped to them by noon and replaced by 1pm. Very econmical and fair as well. Great place and highly recommend.

I came to Uptown for brake service. It was very affordable and Norm explained everything in detail. Thank you for the great service. I wouldnt take my SUV anywhere else. I finally found my mechanic.

Norm always provides great service and is fair. We appreciate his integrity! Thanks Norm.

I have been using these gusy for years and always fair and honest. It is hard to find good auto repair shop and so I am glad they are so local and near the train. My wife drops off he car and walk to the train - easy!

Norm is excellent. Service is superior and reasonable. I love ❤️ this place.

One of the best places Ive been to in regards of car repair, was given the worst senerio about my car, but after a complete diagnostic, they figured out what the issue was and was repaired promptly at low cost.. Highly recommend this place.. Great service

Good prices, friendly people quality work

Great service, very straight forward with all the information about the work.

Very nice staff. Honest. Works in a timely manner. Affordable.

Great service all around, look no further!!

I got a flat tire and had my car towed here. They made great efforts to check the tire thoroughly for the leak so that I didnt have to buy a new one. Very honest!

Uptown Auto has been providing service to my 97 Buick for over a year now. I have been very satisfied with their service and would highly recommend them.

Those guys do an excellent job with reasonable prices

Very professional guys! They work fast and do a great job, cant complain.

Great customer service. Oil change was quick and reasonably priced.

Couldnt be more satisfied. Naram explained in detail what was needed and he exceeded my expectations. The rather extensive repair was on time and budget. I would highly recommend uptown and Naram to anyone and everyone04/15/2021. Used Uptown for an engine replacement (dont ask)! The car was done as promised and as quoted. Bottom line, I highly recommend Uptown, from an oil change to an engine change.

My wifes 2005 Highlander needed a new timing chain (we got 130,000 miles out of the original one). I asked Norm about it and he gave me a reasonable quote to do the job. It is a labor intensive repair but it had to be done. I dropped off the car early on a Wednesday, and picked it up the next day. The work was complete, car is runing great, there was no surprises with the bill, and Norm even sent me a follow up email afterwards thanking me for the business. I am in the retail business and these days customer service is so important. It is so nice to know that it means a lot to Norm and his business as well. This is not my first repair Norm has done, and it definately wont be my last. Thanks again, Norm!

Great place. Family owned and very honest.

Honest, easy to talk to, and they tell it like it is. They charge a fair price for outstanding work.

Good job for my land rover 2008 LR2 rear struts replacement, fast and good quality

Uptown is the best! They fix what needs fixing without overcharging or doing unnecessary work. We only go to Uptown!

Excellent service as always! Brought my car in because it was making a distinct noise. The backing plate on my brake had come loose and it was removed free of charge. Ive come back for everything since!

Great price and excellent repairs. Owner worked with my schedule.

I would say the owner Norm was very cool. That guy knows what he is talling about. I can tell the guy is a business man. I havent actually had any work done yet but i will in the future.

Great service with fast turnaround, as always. Nothing beats having a car mechanic with integrity who is looking out for your best interest instead of trying to make a few bucks with unneeded repairs.

Ive always been able to get fast and convenient oil changes here. Everyone is nice and Larry knows what hes doing, so I keep returning.

Good service experienced mechanic reasonable prices

Im pleased with McGarrys services from the time Larry greets me at the door to the time I pick up my car. I feel I can rely on their expertise.

I am always grateful that I brought my car to McGarrys Auto Repair. They have fast service, but the do the job right.

The best service, very fair GM

I feel I can rely on McGarrys expertise to help keep my car in top shape without overspending. Thank you for everything!

Fast painless tire repair when I needed it

Good quality shop.

Great work, fair fees, great team of mechanics.

I needed my car for a long trip in 1 day and Norm did an oil change and fluids check on short notice. He is always willing to go the extra mile for you.

Norm took me in last minute on a Saturday afternoon even though he had other jobs going. He did a quick diagnosis on the work and was very upfront and reasonable on his prices.

McGarrys has always been our go to auto repair shop in Park Ridge. Their service is outstanding and everything is explained to you in detail.

Fast and clean flat tire repair, thank you

In no time at all they had patched up my tire good at new. Thanks for the fast work, McGarys Auto Repair.
