Mone's Auto Repair

Excellent service. I took a car that i wanted to buy for inspection. He did a thorough inspection and made sure all boxes were checked. Not too expensive. Nice guy! Would recommend.

Great service, friendly staff, and always open to answering any questions I had. I recently edited this review because the mechanics did not catch the issue that resulted in the full replacement of my starter. Nice people but they seem to have limited expertise.

Back home, I have a hometown mechanic that I trust. If my son ever has a problem while he’s at school, this is where I’ll send him for help. Here’s why: So we had just bid our son farewell after a fun Dad’s Weekend at UIUC. Our car overheated. I pulled over to put in a jug of coolant that I kept on hand. Pouring it in the radiator didn’t fix it, as every drop came flowing out from under the car. We were two and half hours from home with darkness approaching on a Sunday night. My beautiful wife googled “mechanic near me” and Mones was near the top of the list. Luckily it was just a mile away. With the engine cooled down, I chose to nurse it to his shop. The plan was to use our son’s car to go home, leave our car there with a note, and hope for the best. Luckily she made it there with no problem. Another turn of luck: it appeared as if three generations of this family owned businesses were still there, on a Sunday evening, toiling away. They were helpful and friendly. My mind was at ease
