Bob and his crew were great! I brought my 1993 Acura Legend in for some work on the AC. Since Acura no longer makes parts for a 30 year old vehicle they somehow located a very difficult to find part (heater core). They helped me when no one else could or would do the work. Highly recommend!

Had a very hard to find part go bad on my 2000 infinity. Sparks was transparent about the difficulties finding the part, and diligent in scouring the US to find a replacement not covered in rust and decay.They rebuilt my exhaust system and engine supports. My engine no longer vibrates the entire car, and the cabin stopped smelling of exhaust.Professional and Courteous

Great Professional Service. Great Communications with Customers. I have been using Sparks and they have always done a great job. Never tried to sell me something I didnt need or do work on a vehicle that wasnt needed. I consider Sparks completely Professional and Trustworthy as well as charging fair competitive prices.

Had a great experience with Sparks Complete Car Care. Had a check engine light and car was overheating. I searched Google for a shop nearby and Im glad I found them. Bob was super friendly and even gave me a ride back and forth to my house. They diagnosed the issue and repaired my car quickly. They were upfront and honest with their quotes and even added a couple free services with the repair. I highly recommend this shop and will be using their services again.

Nice, kind, but expensive. They wanted $275 to replace my battery. Ended up getting it at costco and putting it in myself for $170. They still charged me $55 for the diagnosis, but still saved like $60.Yeah, I know how an economy works. No one asked you to do it for free.

Have No Doubt you are in good hands! They are outstanding and honest. Two items never used to describe a car care center. Bob the owner is fantastic. His staff is incredible. Very reliable and trustworthy. They are willing to take the time to explain to you the issue, possible solutions to fix it in a cost effective manner.

Review №22

Never took my car somewhere and spent almost $2000 to bring it in a week later when no one drove it to find out he wanted another $800. Not to mention when my daughter picked up the car with me she said the check engine light was on the min she got in. But didnt tell me till we got home. The best part is when I told Bob about it and question him. He threatened me. I would never bring my car back there or recommend him to anyone.. I will say my car is old and has 130k on it.

Review №23

I was referred to Sparks Complete Auto Care by a dear friend. These days it is hard to find an honest and trustworthy mechanic. I highly recommend Sparks Complete Auto Care where you can get a true diagnostic test done. And then have it explained to you exactly what is wrong with your vehicle and then given a fair price.

I come to Sparks because of the high degree of personal and professional treatment I receive.

Sparks is the right call. My car didn’t sit there too long and technicians are completely careful with it. It was making noises from not having an oil change for a while but I called bob and with no appointment he got my car back running with no problem. I will only be getting serviced by them in the future because I like theservice they provide and their efficiency too.

If you need an honest vehicle assessment, fair pricing, and top notch customer service, look no further than Sparks. Rockys customer service is at a world class level and she always has a smile on her face. Bobs explanation of issues with the vehicle is clear and concise and he is always looking for ways to save time and money for the customer. Sparks is simply the best in the area.

Review №31

We have come to Sparks for many years now. We first tried them because of a coupon card which made the oil changes very affordable. Then we continued to come for issues that came up with our VW van. Now, we have stayed because of Bobs personal attention that he gives us. He doesnt nickel and dime us to check out issues that are going on. Its nice to have our own personal mechanic we can depend upon.

Review №33

I always bring our cars to Bob and the Mechanics at Sparks. On Saturday afternoon I realized that I head a headlight out, I drive to Autozone and thought I could just buy a bulb and pop it in, but that was not the case. It appeared way more complicated than my remedial mechanical skills could handle. So I drove to Sparks but unfortunately got there 5 minutes after closing. I thought I was doomed to drive with one headlight until Monday but Ray jumped into action and got it fixed in less than 20 minutes. As always the price was fair, the service, and work was excellent. Ray went above and beyond, they had just closed, he could have left, but he didn’t, he stayed and helped. Thank You!

Bob, Victor, ismael and Rocky are absolutely outstanding in customer service and quality of work! Ive been a loyal customer for years and have always trusted the opinion, workmanship and honesty of price and service, whenever Ive needed to have a vehicle attended to. I now have my daughter taking her vehicle here as well and wouldnt have it any other way. I can always count on Bob to be ever present and willing to answer any of my questions and provide help in anyway he can. His staff is phenomenal when dealing with even the smallest concerns of their customers and I for one, appreciate it immensely. Thank you to Bob and his stellar team for once again easing my mind and providing me with excellence of service above and beyond what most other places are willing to give you. Youve got a forever loyal customer in my family. Thank you for a great experience! ~Carla S. and family.

I have to say I am very impressed with the service of this establishment. It is rare to find an honest mechanic these days. Bob the owner educates you on the process and his prices cannot be beaten. If you wanted to be treated fair, you need to take your vehicle here for all of your service needs.

Review №40

I picked them because they had won the small business of the year award. Now I know why they did!They could not have been friendlier or more accommodating. Got us in early and stayed a little late to make sure the car was done that same day! Plus they went above and beyond to help fix an issue that we didn’t even bring the car in for.Not to even mention that their pricing beat all of the big boys and they didn’t push”extra” work that always seems to pop up when you go to the major chains.The biggest thing was that the price quote they gave us when we left the car off was exactly what we paid when we picked it up. I have never had that happen before!If I could give them 10 stars I would. Definitely earned a customer for life!

Review №46

Dont take your car here! I purchased a coupon for 3 oil changes. The first time I went there, things were fine. The second time, they drained the transmission fluid instead of the oil. The third time I went there, the lift broke with my car on it causing extensive damage to the drivers side when the car tipped over and hit a support column. While the lift breaking was not their fault, the way they handled the situation was very poor. The man working the front desk was very difficult to work with and gave inaccurate information about my car. The owner of the business was difficult to reach. They kept my car for two weeks to fix it, and when the car was returned to me, it was not completely repaired. My car has leather interior, and the door was replaced with a cloth interior, not leather. The frame of the driver’s side mirror was cracked, there were several stains in the car that weren’t there when I took the car in, my cell phone holder was broken, and while the outside of the car had been washed, the inside of the car was a mess. Several other items were not addressed as well. Trying to get the issues addressed was also a nightmare. Bob, the owner, is not always at the business, and the man at the front desk wouldn’t give us any information on how to reach him, yet wasn’t able to help us himself. Finally we were able to talk to Bob and he made an appointment for us to bring the car back to have it fixed to my satisfaction. We gave him a detailed list of all the items that needed to be fixed. Unfortunately, only some of the repairs were done. He won’t reimburse me for the broken cell phone holder, the stains were not removed, and a trim piece along the door is still loose. I also now have a whistling noise coming from the door that was not there when I first took the car in. In addition, I asked for all the paperwork on the work done on my car, including paperwork from Maaco, where they sent the car to be fixed, and he refuses to give it to me. This business had the opportunity to take a bad situation and make it better. At the minimum they should have made sure my car was fixed and returned to me in the same condition it was in when I took it to them. They could have gone above and beyond to make amends and had the car detailed and returned to me in even better condition, but instead I got a car that has more damage to it and is now of less value. Avoid this place!

Review №49

My experience at this facility has been consistently positive over many years. From routine oil changes, the other multitude of maintenance cars require, to brake jobs, Sparks has helped me keep my vehicles breakdown free. Mostly, I appreciate the respect of having my questions addressed & the knowledge that the work is backed by trustworthy proprietor (and staff) who is receptive to any follow-up concerns after the job is done. Its the little things like when I need a pre-trip tuneup, I can get a free 24 point inspection because Sparks is a AAA Approved shop, and I have peace of mind on the road trip. Gotta have a AAA membership of course, which also gets me 10% off the Sparks tab. The dealerships would like you to believe they are the only folks that should touch your new vehicle, Not So!

The service and work performed at Sparks was excellent. We took our vehicle to Sparks after a minor collision. The team at Sparks diagnosed our issue, provided a realistic timeframe for repairs, worked directly with all parties involved in the insurance claim, and returned our repaired vehicle in the timeframe they originally estimated. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and certainly recommend Sparks to others!

DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR HERE. My tire pressure light was on and I thought maybe there was a nail, brought my vehicle in for them to check for nail and take it out and plug the tire. Long story short there wasnt a nail in the tire but somehow it took the technician one entire hour to figure that out. He hooked my vehicle up to the diagnostic machine and ended up making every light on my dashboard pop on and he had no clue how to get them to go off. I will never go back and to think I paid almost $30 for them to turn a simple issue into a major one. If I could give negative stars I would.

This car repair shop - SPARKS Complete Car Care is full of incompetent people and fraud.Each time I visited their repair center they installed cheap faulty parts in my vehicle which lead to further issues.For example - they recently recommend that I put a new battery in my car since there is no life left in the one installed then. I accepted and paid for thatOne month after that the so called New battery died on me. When I got my car towed to the dealership they wher surprised to see what it costed me to put this new battery which was much more expensive than the brand they and manufacturer recommends.Well long story short, in the span of just few months I had to spend huge amount of money to undo the damage caused by SPARKS car shop.To make matter worse, when I approached the SPARKS center with these details and asked them to compensate me for their shoddy job, the person at the front desk tells me that the owner is out pf the country so they cannot help me in such matters.Now knowing these facts, its up to you to decide if you still like to take your vehicle to this shop. Good luck.

DONT COME HERE! Had a complete break job done in March. In April the brakes locked up on a road trip. The repair shop that fixed their work said the rotors were grooved on the inside and none of the calpier slides were lubricated. $1100. later and being stranded out of state, Im writing this review. AAA should be ashamed of themselves for backing this shop.The star listed above represents a NEGATIVE (-1) STAR RATING

Review №81

I rarely write negative reviews as they mostly get ignored however, I hope you will take the time to read this one! This is absolutely one of the worst companies to do business with in the area. I spent over $600 for work that was neither authorized or needed. I took my sons truck in to have an oil leak fixed and told them that we were selling the truck and I didnt want to waste money on needless repairs. The offered to conduct a test to check where the oil change was located and came back to tell me where the major leaks were located. I explained that I was unwilling to pay the extimated $800 to get the truck fixed and they went ahead and did $600 of repairs without my approval. What is worse is that the leaks are as bad or worse than before and they refuse to do anything about it. They are dishonest and will take you for all they can. Please be careful about leaving any vehicle with this group of thieves.

Will never go here again and based on my experience i would not recommend this to anybody. I was driving from Bradley, IL to Naperville. I had to make a couple of stops. All of the sudden my vehicle jerked during reverse and again in drive. So I decided to stop at Sparks(only because it was close to my house) After speaking with the technician, I decided to set up an appointment for the following morning. I first received a quote for the diagnostics, ok thats normal. I asked Johnny if the cost of the diagnostics goes toward any repair necessary, his response was yes. I left to go home. Feeling better that Sparks would repair my car the following day. I brought my car in at about 9am. After doing research the night before i informed them that the speed sensors might need to be replaced. At 3:30 Johnny called me and informed me that the speed sensors need replacing and that the total would be $216 plus the $100 Diagnostics. Bringing the total to $316. I questioned the Diagnostics charge and he said I think we can do something about that. I went on with the repair with the understanding that the total was going to be around $216 and my repair would have been completed. At 5:00pm Johnny called and told me my car was ready to pick up. I went in and picked up my car. I drove no more than half mile and my engine light came back on. I immediately called and Johnny told me to bring my car back in tomorrow. I brought it back the next day and they said it would take them longer to look at the car to diagnose further, however they were not going to charge me again. As if i was supposed to pay for them not fixing the problem. I unfortunately could not bring my car back for 1 week, to give Sparks 2 whole days to look at my car. I received a call that evening and Johnny Said We are unable to find the problem, and you might not want to throw money at a car and still not solve the problem. I have a 95 Saturn, with only 75k miles. The next morning I went to pick up my car and Johnny gave me my keys along with some BS report on the Transmissions of 1991 to 1994 Saturns. Again I have a 95. I left determined to take my vehicle somewhere else. After further research i found that 2 sensors could cause problems. both were only $15 each and were easy to repair, I decided to buy the parts and have a knowledgeable friend install them for me. After Installing the 2 sensors, which only took 20 min. total, I noticed an immediate fix. I have driven my car 600 miles since taking my car to Sparks, and my Service engine light has yet to come on. I hope my experience can help other consumers choose a better location than Sparks of Naperville.
