Auto repair service near Clearing, IL

Hayes has been around since the 80's my parents took their cars to them and now I do. They are straight forward and fair. I am never worried about what is being repaired as they keep me well informed and aware what is needed and when.

We were on our way to Chicago earlier this week when we got stuck in a traffic jam. A woman working at a local restaurant noticed that our car was leaking oil. KAR service was close to the train station, so we brought it in and explained our situation. We were able to leave our vehicle with KAR; walk to the train station and go have our mini-vacation while KAR fixed our car up. The man we spoke with was polite and worked with our situation. When we got back from Chicago we simply walked back to KAR and picked up our vehicle. Great customer service that helped make the best of a bad situation.

Stretch (Bob Zimmerman) Amazing kind person. Can fix anything. Restoring a 63-67 Corvette, his specialty, or a daily driver. I've known him for since the mid-70's when he worked with Richard Buxbaum. Classic Motors (corvettes) in Hinsdale. Best mechanic on the planet!!
