They fixed things that were not on the estimate at no charge to me as they felt they could be a safety issue. Honest people with honest prices. Highly recommend.

They were very honest and did not try to up-sell me on things I did not need. They got my repair done so fast too! I cannot recommended them enough, just amazing!

Had a parasitic drain. And these guys surpassed my expectations in finding the cause for a very fair price.

I was in town on business and had my truck go dead with a possible failed alternator. I had a called Brian at 2 on a Friday with my alternator specs . I had my truck at his shop by 230 with the help of a stranger giving me a jump to make it over to his shop a 1/2 mile away . I drove in and he jumped right in and had me back on the road by 330. I can tell you that a company like this is worth more than a 5 star review . Really helped me out in a pinch and I’m not even a local . Highly recommend this company and the service is top notch . Thank you again !

I reccomend this place. Jamie helped me getting registered at last minute due to my car troubles. She had excellent customer service and was very polite during a frantic moment yesterday. Followed by Joshs customer service was attentive, polite manner. Gearhead really took care of me and my car, without being overpriced. This is my first review I have ever written, I am passionate about my experience here. I will definitely be a returning customer!!

Good honest folks here. The only place Ill bring my cars in for repair. They do both foreign and domestic with ease. And its always fixed right! Great place to drop the car on the way into the city via train hows the shop is a short 30-second walk to Glen Ellyn station! to top it all off if you are in the market for a good solid used automobile, they can find it for you!

Worked with Brian & team on a tricky diagnosis but they nailed it. Great problem solving and communication along the way. Very helpful with questions after the repair. Solid overall value and warranty. Would go back, would recommend.

I needed front brakes on my Cayenne! Matt got me in and out before the time he quoted and the parts were Porsche factory not aftermarket! They will have my service on non warranty work!

They came in highly recommend. I worked with Brain and I gave him a little hard time. After everything we went thru, something of course goes wrong. Brian was man of his word fixed the AUDI for a good price and stood behind his work. Very professional people

Guys are honest and have integrity. Dealer told me my wifes car needed $1K worth of work. Gearhead looked it over and told me that there was NO PROBLEM (and they were right). What really amazed me was that they charged me NOTHING to look my wifes car over. This was six years ago and I have been going to them ever since, without disappointment. Unless they change, they will have a customer for life, in me.P.S. They are especially good at High Line European Cars that are a few years old (out of warranty). They have a master certified mechanic and charge approximately 60% of what my dealer charged me for the same work. Highly recommend.

I live in Glen Ellyn and have used Gearhead for 15 years for my auto maintenance and repairs. These guys are the best! Honest; super-qualified; speedy work.Also, if you need a high-quality used car, talk to Todd (the owner) at Gearhead!!! He can help you get a much-better value than any dealer or CarMaxx. My family and I have bought several cars through Todd and they have exceeded expectations.Highly recommend!

Had my car (sorted) by them almost $4000 ! The brakes squeak like they’ve never been replaced they installed the cabin air filter backwards, and didn’t put the door back on and missed a bunch of things.

We have taken all of our cars to Gearhead. From a Corvette Z06 to a Mercedes E350 to a Honda Element. Every time they exceed our expectations. Today they fixed something at no charge that a dealership would have charged us hundreds for. These guys are fair priced but they do excellent work.

These guys are great, super friendly and reasonable prices for European cars where other shops would try to over charge you. Coming again soon for more work. Thanks guys.

Its hard to leave your favorite service center when moving to a new area. I consider myself lucky to have stumbled upon Gearhead when I relocated to Wheaton, and I couldnt be happier. Not only are the technicians qualified and efficient, the office staff provide detailed explanations and recommendations, the repairs are always done well and in a timely manor, I never feel that Im being sold work my vehicle doesnt need, and the prices are reasonable and affordable considering the high quality of work. Im in the process of converting all my friends and family to Gearhead customers!

Was told I would have the car looked at same day; once I dropped off they said it would take 2 days to review. Corrections were incomplete to the car and details were not discussed over phone. Will not be returning.
