I’ve had work done here twice so far and it has been a friendly and efficient process every time. Bill is great at recommending only necessary repairs and letting me know what’s going on under the hood.

Bill and the team at 4th Street Auto are the best in the Metro Detroit Area! Finding a honest, reasonably priced and great quality auto repair service is hard to come by these days! Bill and his team always make sure to take care of me and my car!

My family has taken our cars to 4th Street Auto for many years. The care and quality they put into their work is unmatched. For example, the staff helped rescue a kitten from under the hood of a car while I was getting my oiled changed recently. They not only care for their customers, but are happy to help out a fury friend as well. Highly recommend! :)

Fourth Street Auto is the only place I trust with my vehicles. Whether it’s general maintenance or a major repair, their service is second to none, and I drive away knowing the job has been done right by expert mechanics, using quality parts and no short cuts. Honest, trustworthy, and dependable business. I highly recommend Fourth Street Auto for a job done right!

This place is AMAZING! Seriously, I first found them when my cars brakes were making a horrible noise. Bill was wonderful and did some diagnostics for me same day, but then pointed out it was an issue caused by the dealership and wont take my money. Fast forward to present day I purchased a van and it needed an oil change and I asked them to add an inspection, it was so detailed. I got the brakes replaced and a coolant flush. The shop was able to do all the work and have it back to me in a few days even though I told them it was low priority. I cant recommend them enough.

The absolute best shop Ive ever been to! Please bring your car here! A place that will give it to you straight-- if you dont need a service, they wont try to make you get it. If you do need service, know that it will be of the best quality.Bill and the crew go WAY above and beyond the job they need to do. If theres something they are unfamiliar with, they will do all they can to get the answer.I recently had major car issues, and instead of trying to charge the arm and a leg they could have, they helped me come to the decision that it was probably best to start looking for something new. While I struggled to find something, Bill offered to keep an eye out for any cars that come his way. Long story short, I now have a great, reliable car that I know is verifiably safe! [None of this was for any kind of commission or to sway me to leave any kind of review. Also, be aware that they are not actual car salespeople, so this isnt a service to be expected.. just a way to prove they really cared about me as a client.]I will honestly be eternally grateful for 4th Street, as theyve saved my butt a few times. Please check them out if youre needing some work done!

The quality of the customer service that I received from these guys was above and beyond anything else that Ive ever experienced.

I had heard nothing but great things about 4th street, and they gave me a great referral to B & B collision a few months ago. So, when I needed a brake job and to have my AC checked, I called them. Turns out, my car was overdue for a couple other general maintenance things.Terry was very communicative and honest about what needed to be done, what could wait etc. Gave me clear estimates on what the work would cost and when I decided to get more work done that would take more time, they offered me a loaner so I wasn’t stuck at home.In addition, during their thorough work with my car, they found something that had been done incorrectly by a tire shop, explained it clearly to me and gave me the parts I would need to go bAck to the shop and see if they would refund me that portion.At the end of the day, I checked out with Rick. It was a great experience with 4th Street Auto. I can’t imagine taking my car anywhere else now.

Bill and his staff are amazing. I made an appointment and took it in for a standard oil change. They also helped me with some other small issues. I was able to go home in 40 mins. On top of that, I called back asking if they could also do my husbands car same day. Bill took it in with no hesitation. So glad to have found this local business!

Review №32

Fourth Street Auto Care was recommended to me by a friend, who called this business honest and fair. I agree with this opinion based on my first visit, where they told me that I could wait on new brakes for a while longer. I appreciated the honesty, and will take their advice and replace the brakes during my next visit.

Review №33

I’ve been bringing my cars to 4th Street for the last 15 years for a variety of repairs, big and small. Bill is the best, most honest mechanic I’ve ever dealt with. If something doesn’t need to be done, he’ll let you know - he doesn’t suggest unnecessary work just to make money. Even if it’s just for an oil change, 4th street is the only place my husband and I ever take our cars!

I have never had bad service from 4th Street Auto in all the 40+ years I have been having my vehicles serviced there. You are a first class business with caring men who take their work seriously. I especially am grateful for your men picking-up my wife and returning her home safely. You went out of your way to make our experience a great one! You guys are consummate professionals and I do and will continue to to recommend anyone I can to your business.. Your friendships have meant so much to my family over the years.. MY DEEPEST THANKS FOR A JOB WELL DONE, AS ALWAYS!!!

Great experience! Went to get my brakes checked by these guys because my regular mechanic is moving shops. They told me my brakes were fine and I had an entire vehicle inspection total cost was fairly priced under $70. I would definitely go back again. These guys seem honest and honest mechanics are hard to find.

Wonderful customer service. Our car broke down on a Sunday and the owner responded to us via text to let us know we could drop our car off and would be looked at first thing Monday morning. And it ACTUALLY was! Imagine that people doing what they say they are going to do!It ended up being an easy fix (new battery). But the price was great and the service was even better. Both of our Dads were mechanics and took care of all our car problems. They both passed away within the last few years so it is nice to have someone we can trust again. Thank you!

Ladies! This is a place where you can feel safe to bring your car. Service was excellent, friendly, and the prices are reasonable. I wasnt pressured to take care of everything all at once. We addressed the immediate needs and I was given a thorough breakdown of what thier inspection found. Again without any pressure to take care of things that could wait alittle bit. As a single parent that was very appreciated.

I went to 4th Street Auto to have my wheel bearings replaced after being quoted an insane amount from Precision Auto. They were very thorough in their diagnosis and work. Bill was very upfront and called me to come in an show me the issues while the car was on the lift. Its safe to say this is my new repair shop.

Review №59

While I did not need a repair here, I took my car here to see if they could determine if it needed any work due to a noise that started after my front end got damaged. I’m really glad I went here as they did not charge to take a quick listen/look under the hold. Very friendly nice gentleman that helped me, not sure if it was the owner or not. Honda dealership in Ferndale would have charged me $120 just to look/listen. Thank you.

This is not only a top notch auto shop, they are incredibly kind, honest and fair. They do excellent work! If they feel someone else will be able to perform a better, more cost efficient service, they will send you to one of their trusted associates. They sent me to just such a place for some muffler work, and it was fantastic. I highly recommend 4th street auto care center.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with these men for over 20 years. I have never been over charged for a single thing. When my car mysteriously lost the oil filter, they took great pains to figure out what happened. When it could not be determined whose fault it was, 4th Street split the cost of the repair with the oil filter company and I did not pay a cent. They are honest, hard working and honorable men. They have my business as long as I have breath. Terry Girard

Top notchI cant say enough nice things about the service at 4th Street Auto. I wouldnt bring my car anywhere else. I just brought my car in for an oil change and they noticed a leak in the axle seal. Any other shop wouldve told me the service was needed with a price quote, but instead they told me it was likely under warranty and to take it to the dealer.Their prices are very reasonable for actual service also - theyve been taking great care of my cars for ten years now.

4th Street Auto provides wonderful, prompt and cost effective service and repairs. We trust the staff there implicitly, and heartily recommend them to others.When your vehicle needs repairs, the staff will tell you. When expensive repairs are not necessary, theyll tell you that, too. What I appreciate most is their honesty and that when they fix something, its fixed right the first time.

Review №72

Great old Skool auto repair shop where they actually care about doing right by the customer. All I ever want from a auto repair shop is to tell me 3 things: 1) What has to be fixed right away 2) What can be fixed sometime later 3) What needs to be fixed but is not a priority and is fine like it is. They do that for you. Trust is everything-highly recommend

Review №86

Ive been taking our cars to 4th Street since 2010 when the garage Id been going to closed. So obviously Im happy with 4th Street. The staff are all friendly people and they care about what they do and about the cars that theyre working on. One point about the staff, theyve all been there since I started with them and that means that they get along well. Good relationships between workers leads to better quality work. Theyre honest and do excellent work. I dont recall ever taking a car back to have something redone. Two of the cars are over 20 years old (one will be 30 later this year). These are cars that a lot of mechanics know little about, but 4th Street does very well with them. Ive recommended them to other people and will continue to do so.

My truck started vibrating really bad on my way home from work (I work the midnight shift). I called them at 7 a.m. when they opened and asked if they could look at it for me. They had me bring it right down and by 11:30 a.m. the same day, it had been diagnosed, fixed, and I was taking it back home. I will definitely be taking my vehicle back when I need service again!
