I couldn’t be happier! These guys make sure to communicate every single detail and do their best to save me time and money. My work schedule didn’t allow same-day pickup of my car after new tires, service, and battery replacement, and the loaner car was so helpful! Always professional, friendly, and truly care about giving the best possible service.

I was introduced to Premier Automotive by my insurance agent Ken Sellner. We had gone to another repair place and gotten what looked to be a very inflated quote for repairs. Premier Automotive was very upfront and honest with the things that needed immediate attention versus items that could wait. Thank you so much for your honesty and workmanship!

We have been blessed by Chad,Tim, and Team since their days at the corner of 73rd and Hickman. Always friendly and professional, combined with high quality from top notch knowledge and ability, built on a firm foundation of trust and honesty. Whether a scheduled appointment or a dramatic emergency while on the road, we count on Premier with our automotive needs. Our adult children now have the same confidence in Premier with their cars, too. In the last two years, we have challenged Chad’s Team with some crazy issues, as well as relying on them for basic maintenance of our newer and older vehicles. Yesterday, our family van rolled 200,000 miles due to the care and advice Premier has offered. We could take our business anywhere in town, but we choose Premier!

These guys take great care of my family and our cars. Tim and Chad have diagnosed, consulted us, and fixed our cars quickly and for a fair price every single time. Ive never felt nickel and dimed and have built up a trust with them that so valuable when dealing with vehicles.

Premier Automotive is worthy of the highest possible recommendation for the quality of its work and its observance of the finest standards of automotive advice. Over the years, Chad has provided carefully considered recommendations regarding our family autos which have clearly been based on both deep experience and the necessary due diligence investigation of the given problem. The mechanics follow up on the execution of the approved repair plans with full commitment to their performance. Premier Automotive is the best choice available.

Brought a car in from a local dealership for a buyers inspection. Nate was very helpful over the phone and in person. Walked me over everything he found wrong with the car, answered any questions I had, and gave me his personal opinion on the car. Didn’t end up buying but glad I brought it to Nate and Premier.

This place was fast and thorough and very detailed and honest. They worked to get me a good appt. I was from out of town and they inspected my car for me and did a fantastic job telling me things they had noticed I wouldnt even think to look for. The people that worked there were very helpful too and friendly.

Chad worked on my car. His son Zach is so professional and friendly. Because I went through AAA Chad made sure to prioritize my vehicle and he kept in contact with me which I loved. I will definitely reccomed Premier Automotive to others, and the price was right around my range!! Thank you Chad and Zach!

Premier was able to get me in quickly and figured out what needed to be repaired. Bonus that they were able to get the work done that day! The employees I had contact with were knowledgeable, friendly and extremely helpful. They even saved me from making a costly repair recommend by the dealership that was unnecessary at this point, which to me equals honest mechanics and I super appreciate that. Highly recommend.

Service was prompt, fast and good. The charge seemed to be high for the service provided. The invoice did not break down labor and other costs to see if I received the AAA discount.

Review №29

I am really disappointed in Premiers service.. I brought my vehicle in 3 times with the same code. The first time- Chad the owner threw a lot of parts and money at it thinking he had it covered. The light comes on again- displaying the same code. I take it in and they straight up lied to me as what it was. The guy up front- Tim? Told me it was a warranted part but couldn’t tell me what it was as he wouldn’t make eye contact with me. The light comes on again displayed by the same code- never have I taken a vehicle back 3 times for the same code..Mind you they have a 3 yr- 36000 mile warranty on their work. Chad the owner wanted to charge me for more parts and not stand behind his guarantee. As I spoke to Chad he thought I was going to buy in on his diagnoses. In a nutshell Chad never fixed the problem from the Start..Premier just lost my family’s business.

I called one morning due to a check engine light. They were booked straight but he told me to come in and he’d at least read the light to understand the issue. Turned into a big one, they then gave me a rental, said leave it and we will do our best to get to it. I had mentioned I was going out of town. The next thing I knew they fixed and pinpointed the issue came when my cars oil had been changed (different place from here). They made enough notes for me to share with this other location so they could reimburse me for the issue they had created. So amazing!! Great service. Nice guys!!

This place destroyed my 2010 Jeep Wrangler. This place replaced my oil pan, gaskets and alternator in my Jeep Wrangler which cost $1,300. A few weeks later I drove my car to Minneapolis and my car died on the freeway. I was told by two mechanics up there that there was no oil in the vehicle, my oil sensor was bypassed or installed incorrectly by Premiere Auto. I had to scrap my Jeep. Tim at Premiere Auto who seems like the owner or general manager told me there was nothing they would do for me. He sold the work to me telling me that “if I had any problems that NAPA would cover their service work”.After I explained the situation to Tim he told me I had to pay to have the Jeep Towed from Minneapolis to Des Moines for them to look at it. Also NAPA refused to cover replacing the engine which was destroyed.I feel like these people ruined my life, went back in their promises and messed my life up.

This was my first time bringing my car to Premier and it was nothing but a great experience. Headlights and water pump needed to be replaced. They were able to provide me with a loaner car for the day and the repairs were done on time and honestly faster than expected. Saying all that they did this before the Holiday so that I was able to get home. Thank you!!

Review №36

What I like about Premier is they are professional and communicative. They discuss all options and make sure you understand whether service can wait, be handled less expensively or is an immediate safety issue. The chain shops just check the box and recommend everything. Highly recommend !

I took my vehicle for a check up since i intended to go on a road trip. They got me in fast and did a complete check up. Tim was very friendly and kind and i got my vehicle good to go in about 45 minutes. They also charge a super reasonable price for the check up in comparison with other places i checked.

Review №48

Finally a shop that I can TRUST! They have went above and beyond to make sure my vehicles are running great and are safe for my family! It’s awesome when a shop inspects your vehicle and finds something (another shop messed up) they document and take pictures etc. and they find the best solution! It’s even better when they inspect your vehicle and find nothing!!! When was the last time you went to a dealership and they didn’t find a way to take your money?!!

I trust the guys at Premier Auto. They fix it right and offer great advice. In an era when some car repair shops are known to upsell you stuff you dont need - Premier doesnt do that. They make sure your vehicle will run well and safely - and they let you know about issues you need to keep in mind for the future. Theyve have earned my trust.

I called for an appt and was unable to take the time slot that Tim initially gave me but he was very accommodating and found a time in which I could come prior to leaving town. I was very grateful. The work was done right on time, the price was good I will be back to use your services again. Thank you. Hats off to Tim professional and friendly.

These guys are rock stars! I was traveling and only in town for a day with a broken AC compressor. They were able to get my car in and out in a few hours. Courteous and helpful, had a loaner car available so I could still get the things done in town. Can’t recommend it them highly enough.

Review №58

I was reccomended by my friend Jane, and I love that they text and email you a full review of the diagnostics. The mechanic took the time to go in depth about the issues with my car on the phone before fixing it- which I really appreciated. They were able to get me in quickly and offered to let me use a loaner car while working on mine! Very professional and I plan to continue taking my car there.

The folks at Premier Automotive Service were great to work with. I especially appreciate the extra accommodations they offer: text message reminders, a vehicle inspection sent to my phone with photos, and the option to use a loaner car while mine was being serviced. This was my first experience with Premier, but I intend to return for future work.

I know from experience how important it is to find a good mechanic that you can trust. Premier Automotive Services has earned my confidence and trust. One of the premier services is with a standard oil and filter change you receive a 27 point safety inspection with the topping off of all fluids at no extra charge.

Review №72

Probably the best experience Ive ever had at a car repair place. I went to Premier because another car place said I needed shocks. Premier was going to be less expensive for the repair. Turns out I didnt need new shocks at all and Premier didnt try to fix something that didnt need fixing. They did a full inspection on my car and took pics of the underside of my car and emailed the pics to me. They found a nail in my tire which they removed. Also, I had a plate light out which they fixed. I had a no charge for this visit. The guys were very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a pleasant experience. I would definitely go to Premier with future car repairs.

Premier Automotive is best shop around! I live about 40 mins away but will always bring my cars here for all service needs! The service is great and timely. The prices are great too! I’ve never been treated better! I really enjoy the amount of information I am provided with from the inspections. The communication about what my car needs is always top notch! I will always recommend Premier to friends and family! Premier is a fair and honest shop, which is hard to find these days! Thanks for the awesome service every time I visit!

Premier automotive is an excellent place for csr repair. The people are up front and honest, and they are thorough. I had trouble with a battery, was told it was the starter by one person. I called 3 mechanics and the first two were condescending and ridiculously priced.Ironically the mechanic called honest wrench was the worst, he told me Id have to get analysis done first because he couldnt trust the first time. Fair enough I thought, but then he said it would be $185.... Are you kidding me?!I got a call back from premier and was told testing is $40. They replaced the battery, did another analysis /testing to see if the problem was anything else besides battery. I paid half, maybe less than half of what the other mechanics quoted me.

Chad was very friendly when I called to inquire about getting some work done. Once I decided to go with them, they were easy to work with and got our vehicle taken care of a lot quicker than the dealership we had been working with previously. Everyone we encountered between dropping off & picking up our vehicle, were very personable.Not sure about all repair types, but they were reasonably priced for our repair.

I got an inspection on my car and they told me to look at it it would cost $120. When my boyfriend went in a few days ago for an inspection they charged him $37.09. I set up both appointments under my name, the only things that was different is a male showed up to the second one. If youre a female I wouldnt recommend going here at all- send your boyfriend instead to save some money!
