Jason and crew are gone!! I dropped my car off and they had it for two weeks. Got it back and problem was never fixed. Gas light was on. Maybe they did some joy riding?? Dont know mileage in and out wasnt documented. Went to dealer and it was fixed in 1 day for the same price they were going to charge me. Had been going here since 2008. Wont be back.Check the dates of previous reviews. Not sure when new management was taken over.

Went in for an oil change and tire rotation. Learned that Jason and his crew have moved on. The new owner and crew are a huge disappointment. They didnt close the air box, they broke the air in take hose, and there was oil everywhere in the engine compartment. There was also oil on the windshield, fenders, and bumper. They stole the change from vehicle. The prices jumped from $35 to $66. The worst part is that they didnt even bother to mention the things they broke. The excuse I was given for the poor workmanship is that they were very busy and the tech didnt know what he was doing. I will not be back.

Ron is awesome. Kept me updated on service and issues. Mechanics know their trade. Applied all coupons possible and work was completed in a timely fashion. Drove my car 1900 miles right after work finished. Smooth ride. Car ran great.Highly recommend!

I was referred here by a coworker. I must say, I was totally impressed by my experience. They had exceeded my expectations. Ron at check in was very friendly and accommodating, yet professional. The work was done in a timely manner. This location has significantly raised the bar in car service. I hope they don’t get tired of seeing me because I’m coming back! Thank you for the phenomenal service!

PLEASE READ! Ive gone to the Tuffy Tire and Auto Service located at 3190 N. Aurora Rd., Aurora, IL for a good 15 to 20 years when Jason was the owner. I could always trust his honesty and help every time I went to get my car serviced. On August 5, I went to get my oil changed and discovered that Jason no longer owned this Tuffy location. Naturally I was disappointed. Without going into full detail of the experience I had I just want to HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend ALL of you to get a secondopinion on any high quote given. I am thankful I did. The quote I got was extremely high and the second opinion I got was an eye opener!! I am a person who loves to give positive reviews but I am not able to in this situation. I feel morally obligated to share this. I will NOT be returning here.

Hello fellow people who need their cars worked on! So, long story short, I knew my brakes were going so I started saving up but then on June 10, 2021 I heard this horrible grinding sound. Figured it was brakes and sure enough it was. Brought it in and was immediately taken care of by RON. He was super cool, willing to help me since it was not safe to drive my car, and was consistent with reaching out to me, updating me and getting the job done in a timely but efficient manner ! I very much appreciated not only his ability to help me, but he also has a great personality which honestly separates him from other people I know in the industry which draws me to come back in. And that says a lot considering I live an hour away. Thank you Ron!

The people at this Tuffy, especially Ron, went totally above and beyond for me when I was in need. It has been hard for me to find mechanics who are patient and understanding, and not taking advantage of me because I am a young woman, and who are also trustworthy when it comes to repairs. I will be bringing my car back here for as long as I am in the Chicagoland area (and maybe even after that).

This is my go to place for vehicle service. I find their professionalism, vehicle service, and customer service to be top notch from their owners/managers to their technicians. I highly recommend this place for your vehicle needs. Not once have I ever felt cheated or misinformed and have always looked forward to having my vehicle serviced. They have been working with me for 4/5 years now. Lastly, since I do know that this matters to a lot of people, their pricing is very much reasonable and of value, especially with the aforementioned courtesy and service they render.

I love Tuffy Auto Services in Aurora. Jason and his team are very friendly, professional and honest. As a woman I always feel comfortable going there. He doesnt try to screw you over. They explain everything in detail and if needed will show you the problem area. If you are a woman who needs a trustworthy auto shop to take your vehicle, I highly recommend them.

I never been to this Tuffy but i spoke to someone on the phone and that was enough for me to understand this is a reliable and honest people. Finding auto repair places who knows what they are doing is not difficult but finding a honest mechanic is nearly impossible. When i spoke to someone at this place for a quote, he said that my car should be covered under warranty, unlike the place where i took for oil change, they quoted nearly $700 for my drive axile repair.

Extremely friendly, honest and providing accurate recommendations. Jason is always got a smile, willing to help and over delivering! Always a pleasure to work with Jason and his team and often call or stop in for advice or review of quotes from dealers or other shops for repairs! Highly recommend taking your car to Tuffys for your maintenance and/or repairs.

The guys at Tuffy are focused on doing a job once and doing it right. Every time I go, Jason probably spends more time with me explaining what is going on than he does on my truck! They are up front and honest about what work needs to be done and they go through the trouble to diagnose the real problem and find the proper solution. I will be going back every time I need work done.

This is my third it fourth time taking my car to Tuffy on North Aurora and my experience has been very pleasant, every time. The crew has been consistently knowledgeable, friendly, efficient, and considerate. Everything about the way they do business here deserves repeat business. Chris and Jason, specifically, are both pleasures to work with. Thanks to all the guys there for their honest and reliable work!

Review №31

I dont write many reviews but Tuffy helped me out when I was in a jam. I had brake problems to the point my car couldnt move and I luckily called Tuffys because they were close. They helped with absolutely everything and completely took care of a nightmare brake situation. One thing I noticed while I was waiting for my brakes to get fixed is how good their relationship with their vendors, tow truck driver and customers was. Everything you could want in an auto services manager: trustworthy and cares that your car gets fixed right.

I have known Jason since he opened. I am a car collector and very particular about my cars and who works on them. Jason and all his team members are a rare breed. They actually give a damn about you and your cars. I do not trust dealers. But I trust Jason to have taken some 7 cars to him over the years from a classic Studebaker Avanti, a late model Corvette and the family cars, a Benz and now this SRX that is Cubby Blue that keeps on getting a flat every 6 months it seems(lousy Naperville roads).In the auto repair business it is impossible to find someone like Jason who is fair and honest!!!

We have been going to Jason & his crew for about 4-5 yrs now and have never been disappointed. When my transmission needed work Jason called a trusted repair shop, told them I was a good customer and needed help. They took me right away and took care of me. Jason believes in marrying the tech to the car so they know the car and always go above and beyond to make sure my daily ride is safe and sound. Jason always explains everything in laymans terms and offers to use parts we purchase to save money if we want. The waiting room is clean and comfortable as well as the restroom! Hes extra careful during the current Covid crisis to sanitize the keys & the car. Great customer service and great workmanship wins everytime! Thx - Laurie & Steve

Review №45

Took my first car here and had nothing but great service from Jason and Chris. I ended up having to buy a new car, and Jason took the time to squeeze me in at the end of busy day to take a look at a car I was test driving to see if it was worth the buy because He is an honest guy, and I trust him. He was able to help diagnose some issues that the dealer had not found. Ended up not buying the car, and potentially saved thousands of dollars in repairs, Thanks Jason!! Cant say there are many shops around that would do the same, and I will be referring the shop to all my friends.

If I could give this place more than five stars I would!!!! The owner Jason Decort, his account manager (sorry I didnt catch her name), and ALL of his staff are absolutely AMAZING. Before any work was done on my car they inspected the dealerships suggestions, which I appreciated. Jason also took the time to explain & show me everything that needed to be done to my car. Great customer service :-) I will be back

Jason at Tuffy Auto is a Great place to bring your car for service. Let me explain, that I have been to several repair places and they will always try to add repairs that are currently unnecessary to increase their profits. Here at the Tuffy Auto at 3190 N. Aurora Road, in Aurora, IL they give you the facts in laymans term to explain what is wrong with your car. I bring all of my four cars to this location. I had a situation where my check engine light was on and they replaced a bad valve, but the light would then come back on again. I was warned before hand, it might be the main circuit board if the light came back on, which can cost more money for a electronic board. I brought the car back and left it for 3-4 days, as I was out of town for business. When I came back, they decided before changing the main electronic board, they took the time to clean all the ground locations for the emission control on the car. No just to let you know this is my old 2003 Honda Accord with 175,000 miles, so its pretty old but still running with a rebuilt transmission! Well, driving the car again, the check engine light never came on again and Jason at Tuffy Auto solved the problem. They didnt event charge me for the extra time they took to diagnose and cleaning all the grounds contacts for the emission system. Plus, they saved me another $600 from having to buy a computer main board! This is an honest repair shop, that you cant go wrong with. They are qualified mechanics that diagnose problems you may have with your car and give you honest, fair, repairs as opposed to many other repair shops trying to increase the bill, where some other shops dont think you know anything about cars. But, Tuffy will go in great detail to explain what is happening to your car, so you will understand what is being done and why. I cant say more, but this is the shop I would highly recommend going to for servicing your car as I have for the past 20

Thank you Tuffy Staff for helping us with our van when the alternator went out. We were towed in and had no idea what to expect. We were on our way to a wedding. You went out of your way to see that it was fixed quickly. We appreciated the water and soft drinks in the lobby. You really helped us out in a jam. Thank you.

Chris provided reassurance when I called regarding my car issues. With his accommodation to bring my car in when I really wasnt looking forward to it, brought me in to do something I held off for a long time and honestly if it wasnt for him may have not gotten done. Its all about trust when taking your car in somewhere and he built that with his explanations of my car issues with a walk through it. Very kind staff. Considerate. And really cares about people.

Review №57

The greatest workshop in automotive history. Do you think I am being overly dramatic? Well, give it a shot and see for yourself. Jason and his team are the only people ever to tell me that my car DIDNT need anything and everything looked great. In this world of bogus repairs and scare tactics, Tuffy at Aurora is the GOAT.

I had a truly amazing experience with this location. I was traveling on business and needed some emergency work done on my vehicle so I could safely drive back home to Des Moines, IA. The owner was completely open and honest about what needed to be done and they had me on my way well ahead of the approaching snowstorm. I would recommend Tuffy in Aurora to anyone!Signed,A well pleased customer

Review №59

The BEST shop that you can take your car, period. Ive been taking my cars here for prob 10 years. We keep our cars until they just dont run anymore and you will not find a MORE Honest shop and owner in Jason. Never pads the work, understands if the car is older and you want to just keep it safe, will only recommend what has to be fixed vs things that are broken but will be fine for a safety perspective. I even take my new car there for all regular servicing, wont go anywhere else. You will not be disappointed with the service at Tuffys. I literally can not say enough good things about Jason, his shop and the work they do.

Review №60

I love this place even though I no longer live in the area i still travel put here just for their services. Jason is super nice and honest, youre definitely not getting upcharged for work here. Its hard to come across a place thats not charging you an arm and a leg. They work with you, take payment plans, and try to fit you in their schedule no matter how busy. If you wait there you get complimentary drinks or coffee and tv. Theyll show you whats wrong, tell you how you got it, and work with you to fix it.

Review №61

Jason isnt there any longer. Had our brakes done and I dont think they tested before giving back the car. Almost immediately had an issue with the caliper (seemed to almost detach) which was blamed on a slide pin bolt being worn to failure. It seems questionable that this bolt would fail immediately after a brake job.

I have been taking my car to this Tuffy for 15 years and am still amazed by their remarkably excellent service. From Day One, Jason and his crew have gone the extra mile to explain everything clearly, repair everything needed, advise me of repairs that could wait, and tried to find discounts wherever possible. At over 200,000 miles my 98 Rav4 is still as reliable as ever thanks to their exceptional care. I will not take my car anywhere else as long as these guys are around. Thank you for being the one place I can count on!

I came here to get an oil change on a weekday morning. When I walked in, I had to wait a few minutes before I could even speak to someone. I needed the oil change done before the evening as I was going on a road trip that day. The staff member said that they supposedly were to busy to do a simple oil change sometime during that day and recommended I go somewhere else. I did. I went to Pepboys where they gave me ~$30 off of my synthetic oil change and a free tire rotation.

The reviews are true. I have been taking our cars to Tuffy Aurora for almost 3 years now. Although we have moved about 30 mins away to Naperville, I still find time to go there. A truly honest business with great workmanship! There arent many shops which would tell you that your car didnt need something. You have all heard the stories of a $50 repair coming out to be $500 in the end. Not here!

Tuffys is very customer-oriented. They arent like most auto shops or stealerships where you get cheated into buying more than what you need, the prices are fair to good, and the turnaround time is excellent.Perhaps most importantly though, the staff at Tuffys are fantastic. Theyre honest, transparent, passionate people who are very helpful and informative. If you dont understand the work being done, they will explain it to you in laymans terms without treating you like a moron. The shop owner, Jason, is very cordial and looks after his customers like family.Overall, Tuffys is the place to go if you need any work done on your car, from a simple oil change or part replacement to a full brake job or engine repair. They certainly have our familys business.

They are so OVERPRICED. I have a 2006 Honda odyssey and replaced its high pressure power steering wheel hose. They charged me $479 after tax. Surprisingly, this is a discounted price. Initially it was more than $500 (I asked him for a discount instead of finding another shop since I was kind of in a hurry).The other day they quoted me about $600 for starter motor replacement (aftermarket), and I ended up doing it myself. If you do googling you will find their price way over the top.I wouldnt do any business with them.
