They take care of your car
by 121578 at Citysearch
I purchased a car that needed work done and I took my car to quite a few places for estimates and after hearing all the estimates, I thought I would never get my car fixed. I was online one day and just googled auto repair- Chicago and Rod's came up. I was hesitant at first because I was not familiar with the shop and I just knew i would be quoted some outrageous price from there too. I wasn't going to call, but something inside kept telling me to call. When I called and asked for a quote on my issue, I was at a loss for words for what they quoted me, almost $1000 cheaper than what Pepe Boys and others quoted me. I knew I wanted to do business with them because the person that answered the phone also answered every question that I had and gave me all honest answers. I knew from that point, I wanted to give them my business. My car was towed to them on Thursday and they kept me informed on the progress of my repairs and my car was done early Saturday morning. Everyone in the shop was so nice and professional and I was even shown pictures of my engine before and after. My car is running wonderfully and I would definitley recommend Rod's to anyone that needs auto repair. The quality of the service that I recieved out shines the affordable price that I paid. Thanks alot and great job!!!
- Pros: Time was taken to make sure everything was done correctly.

Very happy with Rod's auto center
by CarlosJRodriguez at Citysearch
I've had alot of problems with the trans of my 1999 oldsmobile Bravada and have been to a lot of shops in the last two years. I was tired of being hassled and having to come back again and again for repairs.
After seeing one of their ads I decided to give Rod's Auto a try.
I'm glad I did. Rod, the owner, is honest and easy to talk to. He explained everything clearly including all my options. I didn't feel pressured at all, and I didn't feel that anything was done that wasn't needed. My trans was done quickly without paying an arm and a leg. I haven't had a problem since. It's almost too good to be true.
I'll definately be back for tune-ups; I found my new repair shop right here!

Best Shop ever!
by LTDmastaGT at Citysearch
Rod and his crew are simply the best! They provide you top-notch service overall. Rod has been in buisness for over 20 years and it shows - great prices, quality work, and IF you do have an issue they will take care of it for you without a fuss.
Evereytime i go there it sems to get better! I take all my cars there, and their entire crew - Louis, Wendell, Henry, Juan, Chris and Epi are probably the best mechanics in the city along with their expert trans builder Charles who took care of my trans for my Pickup. Rod and Pete always make sure the work done to my cars gets done right and on time!
Definetley a great place for service in the south loop/Bridgeport area!
- Pros: excellent service
- Cons: none
