We had such a great experience with this shop. Bruce took excellent care of my daughter’s car and made the entire process easy and stress-free. He was incredibly professional, the price was very reasonable, and the work was completed quickly and efficiently. It’s not always easy finding a repair shop you can trust, but we felt completely confident in the service we received. Because of this experience, we’ll definitely be using him for any future needs with her car. Highly recommend!

The very best in auto works! I switched from going to the Volvo dealership after Ackerman Auto was able to diagnose and fix a problem for nothing when the dealership was about to charge me several hundred dollars just to diagnose the issue. Ackerman Auto is one of the reasons that I can continue driving Volvos after 30+ years - great cars with expert, honest and affordable mechanics for maintenance.

I had a very disappointing experience with this shop. I was charged for an initial diagnosis that turned out to be incorrect. Based on that diagnosis, they performed a repair—mostly software-related work—that cost over $1,000 on my 2012 vehicle. Unfortunately, the repair did not resolve the AWD issue at all. When I brought the car back and explained that the problem was still present, I was then told that I would need a new rear differential for approximately $9,000 and that it would be better to sell the car. At no point was reimbursement or accountability offered for the incorrect diagnosis or the ineffective repair. What adds to the frustration is that they continue sending automated requests asking me to leave a review, despite not even correctly recording my name or vehicle information during service. I cannot recommend this shop based on my experience.

I went for an annual servicing. As always, the shop provides first rate work at a reasonable price. I am very satisfied, and have been at every visit.
