OUR REVIEWS
Brigetta Norlander, 03/09/2025I don’t leave reviews, but Ken’s Auto went above and beyond. Absolutely a place and people you can trust. Our car was totaled by an uninsured driver. Took a Volvo to Ken’s for a pre-purchase inspection. They did not know me. I was not an established customer. In fact, live out of state. They made time quickly, advised against it, gave me lots of input regarding other potential cars, and when that didn’t work, located a car that did, found a new engine, new tires, etc., got it ready on a time crunch for a cross-state road trip. It handled beautifully. I wish I lived locally so I could continue to take my cars there. Best auto shop experience, hands down. Thank you!
