Took my car up to Hunt and Knight Automotive because my AC went out and my hood latch was broken. They got me all fixed up and saved me a ton of money. Mark and his team were so nice and professional and even offered to give me a ride to work while they had my car. I will definitely be using them for all my car repairs going forward.

We were fully prepared to pay between $3k and $4k to replace the lifters on our truck. We had been told by a dealer that they could not replace lifters but that we needed an engine at a cost of $8k. We were upset but decided to check around. We were referred to Hunt & Knight by the shop that replaced the transmission a couple months earlier. They gave us a very good price to replace the lifters but when they called us they told us that the problem was not the lifters. It was just a cracked manifold. Wow!! They replaced the manifold and a couple other things that we needed done and the price was unbelievable! So fair! And the work was done quickly! We will definitely refer all our friends to them in the future. They could have ripped us off because we were expecting something way worse but they didn't. Honest and fair, polite and quick. Definitely worth a AAA rating.
Description of Work: Thought we needed lifters replaced on 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500

They were amazing. My car died and they actually drove me and they went above and beyond to help me. I will use them for everything. Their price was right because I thought other guys quoted me a lot higher than what they charged.

v After car was repaired, the brakes still did not stop the car as 'quickly' as they had when they were working well. I took the car back and they replaced the frt brake rotors (warr defect) without delay and with no additional cost. They were at all times attentive and responsive to my automotive needs, and this repair and the other work they have done for my car has.been well done. They have, at least twice, replaced a light bulb and answered other questions for me plesantly and without charge. They have recharged my AC fluid several times, changed the oil and done other repairs, always letting me know the price involved. They are always willing to discuss prices with you. We have lived in the Jeffersontown area for 13 years and have used this repair service for my Buick since I purchased it, at least 6-7 years ago. They are my 1st choice for repairs.

They found and repaired the noise without advising of the cost before servicing. About hit the floor when they told me the cost. This place is expensive and will pad the bill to fit their needs. They do no care about their customers. They could not care less about the misunderstanding. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE, THEY WILL TAKE YOU IF THEY CAN. $1200 is a lot for a loose spark plug, especially when they don't let you know before it starts getting into big money. Will never go back!

They replaced the gas tank. The fuel was dripping from it. There was a leak. I love this company. He gives you other options than giving you a new factory part. A lot of places don't give you other options. I have been using him for 3 years. He is very honest. Honesty is his best trait. Pricing is average. He is very good and I trust his company.

They've been great to work with! Their prices are very reasonable. Anytime that we've ever had anything done, if we had a problem, they immediately fixed it. Those problems have been very few. They've done an outstanding job overall. I would highly recommend them to anybody that's looking for a good automotive service!
Description of Work: We've been taking our cars to them for 20+ years. The last visit, my wife's van had to be towed to them since the alternator went out. Not only did they have it done by that afternoon, also let us know that the oil needed to be changed, which they took care of. There was very little down time.

This event was a couple of years ago, but was a memorably bad experience. 10 years ago I used them and they were good. At the time of my visit, a couple of years ago, their service was poor, their prices were high, and their personnel were rude. I have tried them twice since moving back to Louisville and will not try again.
Description of Work: I took my red 1975 Corvette (looks just like the one on their building) in to have a turn signal repaired. They called and said the ignition switch was broken; it worked perfectly when I took it in. They told me the car was old and that I should expect that. When I went to get the car, after paying for a new ignition switch (which is not near the turn signal), the arm rest was torn and the dash fascia was left in the floor. They came in and put the dash back together. They charged a large amount to repair the ignition they had broken and to repair the turn signal (that was repaired correctly). This was my second bad experience with them. This is an older car and they don't seem familiar with older cars.

Response from Hunt & Knight Automotive Techs
5/29/2009 The customer's first visit in 2009 was 5/29/2009. He described the car problem as ‘shorting headlights’ and an ‘exhaust noise’. We removed wiring connectors to all headlights, cleaned and repaired connectors (repaired connectors on low beam side as the connector was broken). We also welded the exhaust bracket on the driver’s side. We also found that there was no harness to pass seat belt that may be keeping the light on. It needed console and wiring repair under dash. We also recommended that he replace the clock if we were to do dash repair. Would need to remove left instrument cluster and left front quarter to trace wiring for security system wiring repairs. The total charge for this was $332.50 6/29/2009 On 6/29/2009, one full month later customer returned and stated that, “the key was hard to turn”. The vehicle wouldn’t run when it arrived. We checked the resistance in the ignition switch and replaced the ignition switch. The customer was charged $141.13 for this service. We feel that the charges are fair and reasonable. We did leave a bezel off as customer stated, but did install for the customer while he waited which only took a few minutes. We have a stellar reputation with AAA and the Better Business Bureau and would never jeopardize that standing.
