Minneapolis Auto Repair

Needed a headlight fixed. In and out in less than two hours, and the cost was far less than I expected. Great customer service!

Doug and his crew are great! I've only had wonderful experiences. They're quick, and do a great job. They don't over charge and I'd trust them with any of my vehicles. Highly recommended.

Nelson's is one of the few garages I feel totally comfortable trusting my vehicle to. They do the work they say they're gonna do and I never get some BS about some previously unknown problem that's gonna cost extra money. My starter went out last week and they fixed it right up like they said they would. No hassle, no "Oh and your blinker fluid is out but we'll get that fixed for whatever money you have in your account." Good, honest mechanics.

okay, this is the best most prompt auto service I have ever received. They got my car in immediately and had the brakes done within an hour. I will definitely return for other car service needs.

Super fast friendly service. I’ve stopped here a couple times and both times the service has been great.

Great shop, I've been looking for a reliable & reputable shop since moving to the cities and I can confidently say they've earned my business for as long I live in the cities. My girlfriend's car shredded its serpentine belt on her way to work and Doug had the car picked up and a new belt put on in no time at all. After some time driving the belt they installed started squeaking obnoxiously. Doug stood by their warranty and put a new belt on free of charge which fixed our issues for good. Very easy to work with and great communicators.

I took my car in with some brakes that I purchased late last year. I had tested my dealership on the quality of my brakes, they said they were “good” but they were worn down to the metal. So I decided to go to Nelson’s instead. I took my own parts (which I think they don’t normally allow, but I had already purchased) and they completed a perfect brake install in less than an hour - during the U of Minnesota playoff football game - nonetheless. They gave me a great price on the labor that was almost 50% of the dealership “discounted” labor. I loved the experience, it’s a short walk from where I live and I will definitely be back for the spark plug replacement I need done. I don’t have a garage to do my own work right now, this feels like my garage. Finally, they seem more knowledgeable than the “20 year technicians with unmatched knowledge” the dealership kept bragging about.

Fantastic customer service and quality of work!

They were super easy to work with through the diagnosis and went out of their way to help me out, and we're helpful beyond what I would expect a mechanic to be. These guys were super nice and I'd give them business again! Tim was great.

I’ve trusted the folks at Nelson’s with my cars for the last 4 years and will carry on as long as they’re in business. No nonsense, incredibly helpful, and friendly folks that make you feel informed and welcome. Prices are well-explained and reasonable, never shady. They’re very honest with you, too. If it won’t be worth it to fix, they tell you. They’ve probably saved me hundreds if not thousands. Helps that they have great taste in beer, too! 😊
