They are wonderful, and they are the only ones I have ever used. His name is Mike, I sent all my friends there, and they all love him. One of my friends had a Merkor, a very expensive German car. She had bought it from a dealer who was a friend of hers. It kept stopping on the highway, and she kept taking it back to the dealer. The dealer kept on saying that they couldn’t find anything wrong. I told her to take it to Mike and she did. He looked it over and he called her back and told her that he knew exactly what was wrong, and she wrote it down. He said that the dealer didn’t want to fix it because it was very expensive, and the car was still under warranty. He told her to take it back to the dealer, tell them what was wrong with it, and if she had a problem, to call him. That’s exactly what it was, and it never happened again. He didn’t charge her anything for that. I never go back to the dealer when I buy a car, I always go back to him. A couple of friends of mine went back to the dealer because their cars were still under warranty. The dealer didn’t get them fixed, so they went to Mike, and he told them what the problem was for free, he wrote it down, and he told them to take their cars back to the dealer and get them fixed. The dealers don’t fix my problems, they would rather have me buy a new car. He is totally honest, and for some minor work like replacing a headlight or a rear light bulb, he says that it’s too much trouble to write up a bill, and he doesn’t charge me anything. In my thirty years of going to him, I have never come away, and had to go back because of work defects.
Description of Work: I use Glenlake International Auto Care, Inc. for my auto service. I have used them for thirty years, ever since I moved to Chicago. The last time I used their services, they replaced two sensors that were part of the ignition system. Otherwise I would never pass an emissions test. They also did an oil change, and replaced a filter.

I wouldn't be going back to them for 25 years if they didn't do good work. They are less expensive and are more knowledgeable than going to a dealer and I will keep using them.
Description of Work: I use Glenlake to work on every vehicle I have owned since 1975. They do body work and mechanical. I was there last about 6 months for work on my 24 year old BMW.

I have been going to him since 1982 and I have never had to go back in to get something fixed again once he’s fixed it. He can diagnose the problem immediately. I have sent so many friends to him.
Description of Work: They fixed my back up lights which involved electrical work. This was a big deal.
