Stay away! All the reviews that warn of this place are correct. I discovered an oil leak and first took my car to Jiffy Lube, who made mention of my car being in superb condition; however, they were not equipped to fix the oil leak, so my boyfriend took it to the nearest place available, which Jiffy Lube recommended. Unfortunately, for me, that was M and R Import Services. Once I received the $1200 dollar estima... view morete to fix both an oil leak from the rear main seal and an oil leak from the side axle seal. I suspected I was being overcharged so I called a mechanic whom I trusted and he told me he would fix it for $400-500 less than they were charging me. When I called M and R to try to retrieve my car before they repaired it, I was told me they were going to have to charge me $350 because they had already disassembled the car (though no repairs had been done at this point). In order to save time, and because I was already out $350 and would now only be saving $50-150 to move my car to another mechanic, I decided to let M and R fix it. What a mistake! The day after I received my car, it began shaking when I reached 60mph. In addition to the shaking, the engine has lost significant power (it`s a VR6 Jetta) I returned it to them and told them that there must be a tire balancing issue or an alignment issue from when they took my car apart. They declared it was something entirely new, provided me with an additional $800 estimate, and, yet, wouldn`t bother telling me what was wrong with my car. My car was running smoothly when I took it in, and is now a wobbling mess. Prior to taking it to M and R, it had never had the shakes, so for it to shake the day after having it fixed, as well as having significant less engine power, and then for them to tell me that these car problems are new and in no way related to their repairs, suggests that they intentionally screwed with my car in order to ply me for more money. If you don`t want to be overcharged and have your car tinkered with so that it needs additional repairs, you should avoid this place. Please don`t get ripped off like I did.

M&R has rejuvenated my Land Rover Discovery. They were fast and very honest about letting me know of the problems I had with SUV. They also provided me with options and suggestions on the best way to handle issues. I tried going to different places before because "it was cheaper" and found that these places didn`t provide the quality of work that Mike and his staff at M&R has. I highly recommend... view more M&R for European vehicle owners!

M&R is one of the finest auto shops in the city of Chicago. For years now my entire family has been taking our multiple cars and SUV?ˆ™s to M&R with nothing but exceptional service and unmatched customer care. The crew at M&R are extremely professional and very honest. From large jobs to simple jobs they always treat your car with the upmost importance and deliver on their word. Their willingness and re... view moreadiness to meet a customer?ˆ™s scheduling needs is absolutely unmatched. They truly go above and beyond to serve their customers as best as they can. I suggest M&R to all my associates and friends and receive nothing but gratitude for sending them to M&R. On top of that the countless times they have diagnosed a problem the dealer couldn?ˆ™t and solved those issues swiftly, truly speaks volumes to their level of care and professionalism. I highly recommend that you bring your vehicle to M&R you will not be sorry you did.

I have been a customer for over five years and I have NEVER been disappointed with their service. The mechanics do excellent work, everyone is professional and super friendly and the prices aren`t bad at all! M&R goes above and beyond to make sure your car receives the best repair service (they even check my oil, tires and fluids for me which I really appreciate!) I highly rececommend their business.

I recently moved to Chicago and was in search for qualified service station. I was in luck because I found a business card on my car, Mini Cooper S. Honestly i was a bit hesitant given this company reviews. But i gave them a shot and they sure didn`t disappoint! If your seeking an honest dependable repair facility with great customer service, I highly recommend this shop. Their labor rate was better by 25% from any l... view moreocal dealership. My vehicle was clean, properly repaired & they even took my car to the State Smog Test for me. I also noticed that they inspected all my tires pressure, & even refilled my extra washer fluid container in my trunk. Every detail counts, at least for me. It was a pleasure doing business with this independent shop. Needless to say I have and will continue to recommend friends to M&R.

These guys left an adhesive-backed card on my driver window to advertise, and it wouldn`t come off. I`ll have to spend 30 minutes going over a good part of the window with a razor blade just to get the garbage removed. If I`m lucky I won`t do any damage to my car.

I brought my Scion in with what I thought was a loud muffler. I was convinced cause I had taken the car to a gas station that put it up on the rack and said it was.... after doing a leak test. So I decided to try M&R because they are in the neighborhood and I did not want to go back to the dealer because every time I have done that I go through price shock after they have done any work. I talked to them about what I... view more needed ... they priced out the muffler and with install seemed very fair. So I walk home and they call and I`m thinking ""here comes the real cost"". They said that it was just a connector and not the muffler. The repair was done for very little money ... and they were super nice. Thanks M&R ...I will be back!
