Standon Automotive Technology

Just a note that I have a fair amount of auto repair knowledge but little time to do the work myself and have worked in the auto repair business in the past so I usually know enough to spot a dishonest mechanic when I talk to one. These guys aren’t those guys, they seem honest and reliable. Took my car in for a tune up and for a noise that sounded like a bad cv joint. They did the tuneup at a fair cost but could not recreate the noise I had heard. A lot of shops would have thrown parts and labor at the issue trying to guess what the issue was, on my dime of course. These guys didn’t, they were HONEST and said they couldn’t fix it if they couldn’t find it and wouldn’t want to just charge me for parts and labor if they didn’t know they were fixing the issue the first time. How refreshing to find an honest shop! :).

The best priced and most honest car repair service I have ever experienced. The owner Sam is super nice and explains everything to you. His business was once featured in Chicago Magazine for one of the top 100 Auto Repair places in the entire Chicagoland.
He usually will take my car in the next day even when he is busy.

I almost always take my car in to Standon. I’ve been seeing them since I got my first car!
No complaints here. They get the job done right the first time, have a quick turn-​around time and are very friendly and helpful. I like that I can drop my car off at night, as well.
I recently had a weird car emergency (my car wouldn’t turn off without disconnecting the battery) and they took me in immediately after they realized the urgency of the problem.
Any time I need serious car repairs, I go to Standon. They do wonderful, and guaranteed, work that doesn’t cost me too much.
