For the last two years I’ve been hearing about the mustang guy in Schaumburg. But nobody ever remembered the first name or the shop name. All I’ve heard is this guy knows his stuff. By happenstance I came across him on Facebook, sent him a message and within a half an hour I got a response. Some thing a lot of companies these days don’t do.Another half hour later we were chatting on the phone and set up an appointment for me to bring it in. My car has been too Hopkins Ford, auto showcase where I bought it, and Bob Rohrman Ford for the same problem with the IRCM manifold plates sticking and the car dying out in traffic. It was also brought to another performance shop who need to do a little bit more Research and Development before they blow someone’s car up.A few days later when I had time I was invited up to the shop. Very clean very organized and only a handful of cars in there. After speaking with Steve I found out it’s not due to a lack of work right because he’s the only one that works on the cars. Within 15 minutes I was able to tell he knew his stuff. He is completely BS free, and the most transparent mechanic I’ve ever met. One of the first things he stated was he wanted to earn my trust before he made me a client.We took the car out, and come to find out it had some serious issues because of who I took it to before to have it tuned. After speaking with the tuner, a few rides later, a new set of spark plugs, a brand new custom tune, and my car has never been faster. Come to find out all of the levels were off from the previous tune and it had spark and knock issues. After the quickest compression test I’ve seen, it was good to know the engine was still OK and we can move forward.In the several hours I was there I met several clients who we’re super happy with the work Steve has done. I had the privilege of meeting his detailing partner as well as his wife and kid, and since I spent the day there his family was even kind enough to buy me tacos. Yes, F***in’ tacos. The guy fixes my car, and his lovely wife brings us tacos… Best car experience Ever…There are still a few things that have to be fixed from the previous mechanic who I trusted, and it was just a life lesson that you have to watch who you trust because I come to find out not only could I have blown up my engine I could’ve killed myself racing around. When my funds are replenished, this is the only person who will touch my car. My car wouldn’t go into fuel enrichment, ergo since I bought the thing I’ve never had a full V8 mustang. It was more like a six. And with about 10 grand of upgrades, still N/A, after this tune, I have to relearn how to drive the car. My power literally doubled after the tune I received from untamed.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ customer service, I even got a text after my ride home to make sure I was happy with the car. I got a check in phone call a few days later to make sure my car was still right and I was still happy. This guy has cornered the industry on how to make people feel wanted as customers. I was so impressed, I was able to refer one of my best friends to him, and get one of my best friends cars away from the people who almost blew up mine.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ value, performance, tacos, and he was the only person who could figure out and fix the issue I’ve had for the last two years since I bought my 2016 Mustang GT premium PP2. If you have a coyote, you’re a fool to bring it anywhere else, it would just be a waste of time and money. Thank you again untamed auto for the best auto experience I’ve ever had. Hopefully one day you guys can sell cars, because I’d buy one from you for life.

Steve from Untamed Auto is a stand up guy! He was able to diagnose a wheel wobble that 2 other shops missed. He road tested before and after the fix to make sure that it was gone. He even called me to follow up after I left to make sure that I was satisfied. If that’s not customer service, I don’t know what is. Thanks Steve!

Will highly recommend taking your mustang to untamed auto for mechanic job or performance. Took my mustang to get a short throw shifter install, and it was done right /done same day . Steve will get you best prices for any part you will need . Amazing customer service.

Untamed Auto is amazing. They preform honest and quality work. They are capable of anything from basic routine maintenance to the most extreme performance mods. After finding Untamed I wont go anywhere else.

Amazing experience at Untamed Auto!! Steve and everyone else there were really down to earth and provided great company and amazing work/results! Would highly recommend going to Steve!

Took my mustang here a couple times now and every time Steve does an amazing job. No matter what you need done he will not only get it done but help you in deciding what parts you need. He and team go above and beyond what most mechanics will do; sending videos, pictures and showing you every step along the way. If you need work done to any car/truck especially if you want to go fast Steve is the man.

Once again Steve at Untamed Auto was able to help me out and fix my truck. A little back story I bought my 2010 Ford F-150 used and the dealership gave me an aftermarket warranty. Shortly after purchasing the vehicle my transmission started slamming and bucking. I took it to Steve and he was able to diagnose that I needed a new transmission. Thankfully he was able to work with the warranty company and I got a new transmission installed in only a few days time, would definitely recommend Steve and his shop to others and will be going back for all my car needs!

Steve knows his stuff. Very honest. Good people to work with

Have been a customer for about ten years. Steve is honest, a great mechanic, and always gets my car in. Does the job right the first time.Thanks Steve!

Steve from untamed auto and performance took great care of my mustang, went in for header install and some tuning and he got me in and out in a timely manner and kept his word, sent pictures during the entire process and even informed me about damage I had to the car that I already knew about. I would definitely go back and recommend anyone else to go if they want to be in great hands

Steve and his crew are the best around. They do all of the work to my vehicles and take customer service to a whole new level. If you are in need of anything done to any of your vehicles, this is the shop to go to!

These guys Rock!! They saved me so much money! & All because they were honest, and didnt overcharge me. I am so happy to know I have a reliable mechanic right here in my neighborhood.

If you want your vehicle fixed right the first time, at a great price and by expert awesome mechanics. This is the place for you. Untamed Auto is one of a kind.

My Subaru WRX experienced a spun bearing, so I connected with the owner (Steve) about getting my motor rebuilt with a stronger block. The initial experience speaking with him was excellent. He layed out all the pricing of the parts clearly. He was very knowledgeable of my vehicle and gave me recommendations for upgrades and maintenance that could/should be done while the motor was out(Saving me money on labor in the long run).I decided to go with an IAG Stage 2 Tuff block.. IAG blocks are typically made to order (on backorder). So there was a bit of a wait.. While waiting for the part, Steve constantly followed up with the Vendor to push them to get the block shipped ASAP, he always kept me in the loop.After the short block, clutch, timing kit, etc arrived, Steve and his team worked day and night to get my engine reassembled and get my subie back on the road. I believe it was only like 3 days after everything arrived, I was picking up my car from them.They with everything with a fine tooth comb. It is almost 6 months later, and my car is running better than ever.Everyone on the Untamed team are extremely knowledgeable and talented. They are always willing to answer any questions you have. There labor prices are beyond fair. Overall it was a great experience. I will be going here for any major upgrades or repairs that need to be done to my Subie.What more can you ask for? Quality fast work, with great customer service.

I found Untamed via a Google search--great ratings so I thought Id give them a call. I had a check engine light come on about a week ago. OReileys ran diagnostics on it which indicated it could be a coolant thermostat issue. I took my car to pep boys and they quoted me $288. When I called Untamed they quoted me a much lower price based on the problem I described. I called on a Thursday afternoon and they made time for me ASAP on Saturday so I wouldnt have to miss work. When I brought my car in I was blown away by the honesty and personableness of Steve and Ron the owners. Both of them helped to run diagnostics on my car and talk to me about the potential problem. Crazy enough, the check engine light went off right before they went to run the diagnostics. They still ran them, but then left it up to me if I wanted to proceed with changing the coolant thermostat or not. I drive a 2003 Ford Focus so the part was 15 years old at this point and I have emission testing coming up so I didnt want to risk it going back on. Im an Ounce of Prevention type so I told him to yes, please go ahead with the repair anyways. He quoted me a MUCH better rate than Pep Boys--considerably lower to my astonishment. Steve and Ron moved 3 other cars they were working on out of the garage to get my car in and up on a lift. Steve took care of the repair in about an hour and even did an oil change I asked for at the last minute. After that, he showed me the undercarriage of my car and explained it still looked to be in pretty good shape. No major leaks or damage. I told him I just got my muffler replaced somewhere else back in November and it had cost me about $1000. He advised me that I may have been charged the maximum price for the parts (parts alone totaled over $700). He thought the job could have been done for somewhere between 500-700 total. Wow. These guys are the real deal! Honest and knowledgable. I learned so much and I really appreciate the time they took to talk to me and explain everything to me. They didnt sell me anything I didnt need and didnt coincidentally find more things wrong with my car. I brought my Dad with me in case I would have to leave my car at the shop. When my dad had questions about his own car (some interior upholstery stuff and a scratch on the front end), they took the time to look his car over and advised him on the most cost effective route (which they were honest and told him they didnt specialize in that and he could get a better deal elsewhere). Just A+ service all around. Kudos to operating your business with honesty, integrity and true passion for mechanics. Will be coming back to see Steve and Ron for future repairs and I highly recommend to anyone who is reading these reviews and considering Untamed for their auto repairs. (Notable to mention that I live in Elgin and it is well worth the trip for me to come back out and see these guys.) Thank you for your help, Untamed!

Great shop and good guys

It is good
