Grand Rapids Auto Repair

Good service. Very thorough and well explained.

I love this place they stand behind their work, and you never have to worry about your car being properly fixed. It is a true pleasure doing business with Eric. Thanks so much

Taking the time to write a review because Ervine's does extremely exceptional work. The team at Ervine's went above and beyond to help me with many complications with Prius and did not raise the price for difficulties. For the services done and the thoroughness of company, the total bill was very reasonable, actually saves me time and money. Also because of there thorough work and attention to detail, I felt secure in driving car across the country and made it home Safely. Thanks Ervine's, glad I serviced with you.

I have been taking my Prius to Ervines since my warranty ended and you will never find a more honest, thorough and friendly family business in town 👍❤️

Finally! It's so nice to find a shop with real ethics and values, that doesn't rip off Hybrid owners. I'm so sick of [*brand deleted*] dealerships throughout Michigan who take unfair advantage of us "because where else are you gonna go?" Hybrids and electrics are good for the planet; it shouldn't hurt financially to own and drive one. All one can ask for is quality repair work at fair prices, and that's *exactly* what I get here at GRH. I'll make the 66-mile trip from Lansing to Ervine's with a song in my heart and a smile on my face, long as my Prius will start up and roll... And after that I may just have it towed here.

Fair prices for ethical, quality work. Finally, a shop that won't try to rip off Hybrid owners.

I had a great experience with Ervines. They were able to get me in within 24 hours when all the other places had a minimum wait of a week. They were very personable both on the phone and in person. Everything was explained very well to me before hand. I was also able to get a loner car free of charge. Then it turned out the repair needed for my car was covered under warranty and they recommended I take it to an authorized dealership so I would not be charged, even though they were capable of doing it. I was impressed with their honesty. They were the ones who called the car manufacturer to check. I would have never known. I was not charged anything, even for the inspection. I also appreciate the quick communication with text and email. I would highly recommend Ervine’s

To be fair, you can get your car services and repairs anywhere and generally speaking it will be taken care of. However, Ervine has a passion and proactive approach to the job that impressed me. They not only fixed my problem, but they also identified other issues or potential issues and made very helpful suggestions for future repairs. While a typical shop would present this to a customer verbally with limited explanation, Ervine provides a thorough online report of your vehicle which incorporates explanations, notes, pictures, videos of their findings. I can’t stress enough how impressive it was to see the report – it was like a college research project on your vehicle; for example ,you don’t get told verbally a wheel is squeaking, you get an explanation, a suspected root cause, and video of your actual wheel spinning so you can see and hear for yourself. They were thorough, quick, and very responsive with my questions and thoughts. I brought my vehicle there for a specific issue, but within 3 hours as a bonus, I received this very thorough report identifying overall state of affairs for the vehicle as a whole. This was immediately followed up with a call from Bruce to go over his findings and answer questions. As the work was being done, Bruce kept me informed on how it looked and the different possibility that I could expect (long story, but there was a condition on the vehicle that if process did or did not work would greatly affect the price –Bruce was successful at it and saved me money). I could explain more, but would be too wordy. The point I wanted to make is that Ervine was a great experience for me. It’s a mom/pop feel with very experienced technicians. Very thorough, very honest, very passionate. They treated my vehicle as it was their own. With the free benefit of a loaner vehicle, the experience was great and I will be back again. They are a great fair and honest company that I trust. Ervine was great and they deserve your consideration next time you have a vehicle issue needing fixing.

Always a pleasure, and much comfort in knowing my car is getting the knowledgeable care it needs. Highly recommended
