In January 10,2023 AAA tow service was called by me (Betty Chevis) to have my car towed my car for repairs because of the clutch on my car malfunctioning (stuck in the down position). I received information from the Matt’s mechanic that not only was the clutch need to replaced but the transmission needed to be replaced. The service I received from Matt’s was outstanding. I was even given a vehicle to drive until my car was repaired. I am Very pleased and would recommend Matt’s to family, friends and new members.

Stopped in this afternoon to have a tire repaired and Demetrius couldn't of been more helpful. He truly had my best interest in mind which is hard to find these days. I will bring my work vehicle from Matt's going forward just because of the level of service. THANKS DEMETRIUS!

The folks at Matt’s were super friendly and were in the process of fixing the transmission in our car when they found additional problems with the car and notified me of the problem. After finding replacement parts to fix the car it was decided that the cost was more than the car, they put the car back together for me and I replaced it with another car. They even had a loaner car to use while they were fixing my car. Will definitely use they again.

Wow! where do I begin? Matt, Jenn and the entire crew were very accommodating and very straight forward. I usually dread going to any automotive repair center but my experience at Matt's changed my perspective totally. I had an out of state trip that would have been impossible if they did not go out of their way to get me in for the necessary repairs. They completed the repairs as they promised and the charges were very reasonable. I would definitely recommend Matt's Automotive Service Center.

I had them test and fix my ABS system. Matt's was very up-front with the estimate and the costs of labor, and the whole repair. I was pleased they gave me the choice to choose or deny those services I either did or didn't want. Overall, a good experience.

I called about my check engine light. Jenni was super friendly and said they were pretty booked into the following week but thought they could squeeze me in. They did! She was very helpful and the mechanic(s) fixed the issue and I had my car back within a day! Very thorough and timely. Matt's with have my future business and anyone else I can recommend!!

00:55 10 Nov 22

Matt’s was recommended to me for when my college son’s car needed to have a check engine light checked. The online scheduler is a great feature as well as their texting platform. They were very easy to work with, prices fair. They recognized another potential problem and notified us right away.

Always know that I can depend and trust Matt's Automotive to take excellent care of my vehicle! Love the fact that they take photos of everything and show you 1st hand what needs to get repaired and what doesn't. They are upfront about everything, and I have never ever felt pushed into repairing something that I didn't want done at the time. They put you as the customer in the driver's seat when it comes to deciding on what and when you want to get things repaired! In my opinion, one of the best automotive repair shops around!

Amazing customer service. Fair and transparent pricing. I’ll go back here every time I need automotive work.

Customer services was great! The vehicle maintenance was completed quickly and done right with a fair price. I’ll definitely go back.

The entire team at Matt's as been great to work with. We've been taking our cars to them since we moved to the Fargo area in 2018. On this particular time I had them assess some issues with my car that had I got them fixed would have been a considerable expense but they advised me to not do so given I am planning on getting a new car in the near future. What business tells you to not do something that would generate them significant revenue because it's the best thing for you? Well, when it comes to servicing your vehicle, Matt's is just that place. Will be a life-long customer

I loved them. Very upbeat, honest and caring. They explained everything gave me their opinion and you know they were very honest. I am so happy with my service. I will recommend them to anyone. Thank you again ?

I always go to Matt’s for my car repairs. They are friendly, reliable, and quick to get me in ASAP. I brought my car in to investigate some odd noises in my engine. Since my husband’s car was in an auto body shop, I needed my car as quickly as possible. Vern and the technician worked hard to get the assessment done by the end of the day and Carly drove to my house first thing the next day so I could get my car back, schedule the repairs, and get home to take my husband to work. I always appreciate the excellent customer service I get from Vern and the rest of Matt’s staff. Thank you!

Mary McCall

Another visit to Matt's for standard car maintenance and another first-class experience! Vern and his team at the location right north of 13th Av S do an excellent job. Honest, friendly and great customer service! I have to tell this story. My brake sensor came on in my car so I told them to replace the brake pads. Soon get a call back from Vern after they'd started the work and he said you have plenty of brake pad left so no need to replace yet. WHAT???? Man do I appreciate that type of honesty and service! Customer for lfe here. Thank you!

I decided to give Matt’s Automotive a shot after hearing so much about them on Y94. I took my vehicle in for an oil change and a complete check of repairs/maintenance that may be needed and I ended up getting some of the more needed items taken care of. Since this was going to take some time they made sure I got home and back to my vehicle when it was all done. For the first time in my life, I did not feel overwhelmed by their recommendations but informed. I will be going back for all of my vehicle needs and recommending them to family and friends.

Alicia Rauzi

01:14 14 Jan 22

Work was done quickly and accurately. I think their pick up and drop off your car for free service is amazing. Every service station should have this service. I will use them every time from now on.

So I’m new to Fargo, discovered Matt’s on google. Had good reviews so decided to take my 16 4Runner for an oil change! Super amazing service, bar none! Came up in conversation that we’re expecting a baby and they put a couple of stuffed teddy bears wearing a Matt’s y shirts! Loved the extra care and service they provide. Also did a free 27 point inspection and found something I was looking for a while. That 27 point inspection was free and included in the price of oil change. And they also rotated the tires which is part of their oil change service! Again if you’re looking for a quality mechanic/car shop in town, look no further! They are just awesome. Only one thing is that they are more on the pricey side, but that is to be expected when you get such great service like that! They also had a super clean shop and waiting area. Which had a coffee bar and a pop cooler for their customers. No greasy hands anywhere on the vehicle and no smell of that you just took your vehicle into a car shop! Cannot recommended enough! Thank you guys, I’ll be a lifetime customer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We’ve been going to Matt’s for 8 years. The folks there are friendly, honest, and knowledgeable. A special shout out to Vern, his help has been invaluable to us for many years. As a woman I am treated with respect and not spoken “down to”. Matt is a straightforward person who cares about his customers and community. He does well in hiring people that care, like Vern.

Jenn Wood

19:18 05 Oct 21

Matt’s Automotive has always been a staple of our maintenance plan for our vehicles. I know and trust that they have my best interests in mind and when they make a recommendation it is based on reducing my frustrations with my vehicle and not for other reasons. We also love the commitment that Matt’s automotive continues to make to the community through giving back with their time, talents, and treasure. Thank you for another great visit!

I've been here twice. I have been recommending them to friends and family for repairs because of word of mouth accounts from others. I had not had a reason to utilize their services until recently. My air conditioner when out and my car was out of alignment. Although the ac was an easier fix than I expected I was confused by the process so I asked a lot of questions. They were so patient responding to me and stayed passed their closing time to finishing explaining how they did diagnostics to discover a few other issues. We came up with a game plan to fix the issues my car was having. I have not had a mechanic do that with me before. They do have loaner vehicles if you have full coverage insurance but everyone and their mother was having their cars worked on at the same time. It was okay because I didn't need a car that bad. The labor fees are a little much but what good mechanics aren't? Plus they are still cheaper than some mechanics in the FM area. I gladly payed it and will in the future. Their customer service is so wonderful, I will continue to recommend them.

I went to Matt's because of a Costco membership coupon and for a second opinion on some work needed on my vehicle and I'm glad I did! I was really impressed with how professional and thorough this place is. They were able to diagnose the issue I was experiencing and also did some routine maintenance. The coupon was just a plus on top of the great service. I really liked the text updates so I could access any information about issues and see images/videos provided if they found known issues. I also liked the ability to see the prices of maintenance needed and a list of what the maintenance is for. I appreciated Vern calling me and bring prompt about updates and explaining anything I had questions on. He was very flexible and knowledgeable. Very pleased with his customer service experience. Last, but not least, loved that they put a plushie in my baby's car seat. Such a nice touch. Whoever came up with that idea, you're awesome! My child will hug anything plushie so she liked it right away. 🤍

I’ve always appreciated the service at Matt’s. I had a nail in my tire and I called Vern and asked if he could get me in on a Friday morning. He was able to do so and even lined up a courtesy ride for me so I didn’t have to miss time from work. Matt has put together a great team of professionals and I highly recommend his shops. Thanks again!

The Wizard Josh

15:22 19 Jul 21

The best automotive service I have ever worked with! They kept in contact daily and made it known they aren't just about getting paid. They make sure the job is done completely. We had dropped the car off and the next day went into labor, they went as far as everyone signing a "congratulation" card. 10/10 would highly recommend

Alysha Stanczyk

14:18 14 Jul 21

My first time using Matt’s Auto, I chose them because of their high reviews and I’m glad I did. They were very professional and friendly. I dropped my car off in the morning to be looked at before we take an out of state trip. They actually gave me a ride to work! The lady who drove me was very pleasant. They kept me informed, even sent me a very detailed list of services they recommended with prices. I was very impressed by this. They were able to have my car finished by the time I left work. Prices were fair and honest. They vacuumed the front floor of my car and left a sweet stuffed animal in my daughter’s car seat!

Ashley Schulz

20:02 10 Jun 21

I brought my car in to Matt's Automotive Service Center because I needed a place that I could trust with a Saab that is no longer in production and are notoriously difficult to work on. The amazing team there exceeded every expectation I could have possibly had and then some! Vern was extremely kind and helpful whenever I had a question or concern and went out of his way to assist me and ensure my visit was fantastic! I will 100% be bringing my vehicles and any future ones here along with recommending anyone I can!

Jason Ecker

13:47 26 May 21

I appreciate their tolerance with me. I forgot my appointment and which branch I should be going and they were very graceful and flexible. I also appreciate the honesty and integrity of their work and told me details about the repair or what happened. I would definitely recommend Matt's Automotive Service Center to everyone who owns a set of wheels! If I could give 10 stars for this review, I would :)

John Asperin

20:02 18 May 21

I don't impress very easily when it comes to taking my vehicle to a mechanic. Does anybody now days? However...I was EXTREMELY floored by the service I received for my vehicle! The technology they used was up to date WITHOUT all of the up to date prices! I have never been so thoroughly informed on every aspect of my vehicles needs by an automotive center before. They gave me before and after pictures of everything they worked on and pictures of everything that will need to be worked on in the near future. Pictures of my engine, brakes, under the vehicle, fluids...you name it! No decisions were made without explanations and my prior approval. Also, I wasn't pressured into spending money on repairs that didn't have to be done until a later time. I've finally found a new high quality automotive center for my vehicle and would highly recommend Matt's for all of your vehicles service needs. Thanks guys!

06/10/19 I found Matt's when I moved to Fargo a couple years ago. Matt's is always helpful and super fast. I go there for all my service and will continue to in the future. Update 4/12/21- Brought my car in for an oil change and once again had a great experience. If you're looking for a place to keep your car in great shape, this is my recommendation.

Travis Gavin

05:33 13 Apr 21

Great experience as always. I have trusted Matt’s for years and will continue to go there. Never had a bad time at Matt’s.

Nate J

23:38 29 Mar 21

They were really helpful. I had a pretty easy problem with my car, and they were able to see my car that day. This could have been because it was a slow week, but it was really nice to be able to have a shop see my car right away. The price for my fix was very reasonable.

I purchased 4 new tires from Matt’s, they were able to get me in quickly, were able to get the tires that others said were special order same day. Had an oil change done and a very thorough inspection and found things the dealer missed that will be under warranty. Tires came with roadside assistance and they took care of my black rims that I had concerns a tire installer may scratch.

Collin Ryan

21:48 28 Jan 21

Matt’s Auto is the absolute best! They are very friendly and professional. As a young female, it can be intimidating going to an auto shop alone, but at Matt’s they always lay out everything crystal clear for you and help you make the best informed decisions for your vehicle’s needs. I can’t recommend them enough!!

Cecelia Hopkins

I have a cross country move coming up and wanted to make sure my car was good to go before I left. Many of my family members and friends recommend Matt’s and I am pleased with their services. Being a young female, it’s a little intimidating bringing my car into a shop, but the staff was so kind, knowledgeable, and genuine. They did the inspection on my car and got back to me quickly, listing items that I needed fixed as a red flag or yellow flag. Red flags were highly recommended to be done and yellow flags are things I should be watching, but weren’t a severe issue at the moment. That was very helpful, and when the staff went over the red flag items they explained why it should be fixed and what it does for the car. I felt informed and I felt like the staff was genuinely trying to help me. I also used Matt’s collision center to get my windshield fixed and the staff there was also very easy to work. It took about a week for my car to be fixed (I told them I wasn’t in a rush when I brought my vehicle in), and everyday I got a call from the shop that gave me an update on my car and the progress of their work. Overall it was great service and if I lived in the area Matt’s would be my go-to shop! One more thing I’d like to mention is I saw on their website that they occasionally give out free oil changes to single parents and teachers, among other things. I enjoy using a business that gives back to the community so much!

Wasn't told how long it would take, but a lady came in shortly after me and was told about a half hour. So I sat down and less then 10 minutes later I was on my way. Friendly staff. Edit of ten minutes of reading the reviews....sounds like I may be in for more of a regular customer. They sound like they know what they are doing and (at least in the reviews) like to keep the customer informed at almost every step of the process. Just from my short experience there I and from reviews would definitely recommend.

13:06 28 Sep 20

I attended their “Single Parent Strong” event and I was so happy with their professionalism, promptness, and over all friendly and caring demeanor for their customers. Thank you so much for the oil change, it means a whole lot! ?

Crystal Johnson

04:40 28 Sep 20

Yesterday, Matt's off 13th dedicated their whole day to giving single mothers (including me) free oil changes. I walked in and they had the paperwork already done and ready to take my car. The waiting area was very clean and everyone was so nice. The bouncy castle was there for kids to jump in. I didn't converse much because I had to hold back my tears. Its been very hectic for me personally these past few weeks and this was a highlight of my week. Thank you to Matt and all your employees for their compassion, integrity, and helping the community. I know this is just one small thing you do during the year but it means so much.

23:27 27 Sep 20

Every time I go get something done from them he gets done in a timely manner and I never have to worry about them doing a poor job. I love how they value their customers.

Rachel Villarreal

18:03 27 Sep 20

Service was very straight forward and informative. I received a call explaining some of the issues found during the inspection after our transmission fluid change, they even informed me of things that could probably wait. Staff was incredibly personable and nice.

Joshua Mathis

22:46 18 Sep 20

Great customer service and follow up with everything they were doing. They not only explained but they also took the time to show me what they were doing and why; answering questions all along the way. Vern and Dave were awesome and I will definitely do service with Matt’s again. Very happy I chose to do business with them.

C Radtke

22:48 01 Sep 20

Called in and asked if they could take a look at an aggressive oil leak on my truck. They found a convenient time that worked with my schedule and got me on the books. I brought my truck in on time and they got me right in. I worked with their general manager, Vern who was very professional and informative as to what exactly was wrong with my vehicle. Got everything fixed, changed the oil, rotated my tires... even greased my suspension and cleaned off the bottom of my vehicle as the oil leak managed to coat the entire underbody of my truck. I was very pleased with the customer service as well as the work they did and would highly recommend Matt’s Automotive.

Matt's Automotive Service gave free oil changes to teachers! They were very quick and helpful and made it a fun experience for all of us. Thank you so much!

Awesome staff members!! To the gal that gave me a ride to my OTF class, thank you!! It was perfect timing dropping me off and picking me up! I really appreciate it. ? Vern is awesome and very knowledgeable! He gave me all the info I needed to know about the services provided, thank you! Will definitely recommend!

Great service, up front prices, pictures to back up recommendations. I also love to see all that Matt does in, and for, the community.

00:52 09 Jul 20

Our car was in Matt’s Automotive for 2 weeks after being hit by one of my daycare parents. We were very pleased with the customer service, Justin was was great! We never had to call about updates, they always reached out to us, they talked directly to our insurance company, when we got our car back it was clean inside and out, we even had a little stuffed animal in our car seat which our son loved. It’s the little things that make you appreciate and recognize companies. They go above and beyond. Very professional yet treated you like family. Hopefully we won’t need to return to a shop for a while but if we do, we plan to return to Matt’s automotive again and again. Highly recommended. They deserve a 5 star rating.

Jade Thelen

23:09 07 Jul 20

I'd just like to start with how appreciative I am for Matt's, I took my car in had more then a few things replaced. They called and kept me updated with everything that was happening, all in all great customer service to go along with good work. I'd definitely 10/10 recommend.

Boe Janglez

02:22 01 Jul 20

I've always had good experiences with Matt's automotive, I went to his Moorhead location when they first opened and Matt always did good work, met timelines, and had great customer service. Now I go to 42nd St location a lot Vern does a great job. they always work with me on various things my fleet needs to stay running. I've recently brought a truck to the collision center when I hit a deer, Justin has done a great job communicating with myself and insurance and getting things taken care of. Sometimes the problems I have with my fleet are complicated and it seems like they have really skilled technicians that get problems figured out and solved efficiently as well as good service managers who can get things scheduled right and they do work that I trust.

brian woelfel

18:59 05 Jun 20

Matt's accommodates changing schedules and conveniently updates you through several methods of communication so you can approve further repair options, complete with links to estimates and pictures of what they intend to work on, before they work on it. Very professional and smooth transaction, definitely recommend.

Caleb

19:39 27 May 20

Great company. Had a minor mishap with my vehicle and was upset initially at the unexpected cost was able to voice that. Picked up car next day apologized to the gentleman and he apologized as well. Josh is a great asset and showed great professionalism! Great customer service and thorough job done.

Jc Carlos

16:33 20 May 20

I would definitely recommend Matt's automotive. Heads up to vern never to busy to answer questions and to find information for you. This time it happened to be tires. Gives you different options. And lots of info. I hope Matt is paying you well. Well deserved. Same goes for tech's get the job done right the first time. Thank you

Vehicle pickup was so convenient due to covid. I was little nervous about trying out a new place but i was pleasantly surprised. I plan on doing all my future work with them.

Pastor kiwi

18:35 20 Apr 20

As always, Matt's is a picture of professionalism and doing the right job the first time. I do a lot of work on older vehicles and for the tough jobs that I may not have the capacity to get done, I always source this work out to Matt's and they have always come through in these times of needs for me. If you are looking for the right mechanic that you can trust to get the job done for you, Matt's is the place to turn! My neighbor and I have done enough car work to know when a mechanic is doing the correct job and Matt's does an exceptional job in the work they have performed for us on those tough jobs.

Anthony Stauss

13:06 08 Feb 20

Love this place! Service was once again top notch and quick. William kept me informed throughout the whole time and I love the pictures and descriptions that are sent by text! 10/10 would highly recommend.

Magan Pritzl

18:44 24 Jan 20

When I called over the phone to schedule a oil change they gave me a near exact price estimate in would pay in store. Relatively cheap. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. Their 70 point inspection helped me identify any future problems I would have with the vehicle. Definately will be returning for future service.

Kalob How

21:11 28 Dec 19

We recently had a minor incident and Matt's Automotive Service Center went out of their way to help me get my vehicle taken care of. Everyone was super friendly and professional. They gave us a loaner car to drive, which was truly appreciated. The collision center made sure our car was absolutely perfect before they gave it back to us. We want to thank them for their excellent service and professionalism! Thank You!

Jess WZ

19:07 26 Dec 19

Scheduled my service online. Awesome customer service from start to finish. Appointment confirmations when scheduled and again the day before. Preliminary estimate of charges eliminated any surprises in overall cost. With that in mind, the pricing is also far superior to that of my dealership. 10/10 would recommend.

Joseph Thorson

15:17 11 Dec 19

I felt as though I was made a priority when I did a walk in d/t some sounds my car was making. Even though I didn't have an appointment, they got me right in when I mentioned that I had been there before. The place is super clean, new looking, and inviting and the customer service is wonderful! I thought it was cool that they emailed me with updates and I was able to approve services via email/online rather than having to talk on the phone every time there was a change. When I did call it never took more than 5-10 minutes to get a call back if somebody didn't answer. They gave me a rental car for free and I was able to use it for 2 weeks when there were some additional things that were found wrong with my car. Really great place, I'll go here for all of my vehicle needs as long as I live in the FM area!

Hannah Knutson

02:20 05 Dec 19

I've been going to Matt's Auto for years now. My last experience deserved a review. I recently took a car in for an inspection before deciding whether I wanted to buy this used car or not. They did a 70 point inspection and were extremely thorough. When the car was done they explained to me exactly everything that they found and answered all of my questions. What really got me, was after I had decided against the vehicle that they had inspected, I talked with William and Vern for a solid 20 minutes about their opinions and recommendations for a good, reliable vehicle. Vern wrote me a list of vehicles he recommends and a list to stay away from! He had a lot of amazing advice and they really went out of their way to help me out. Being a young girl, I've never felt like they were taking advantage of me or being condescending in any way, which is a huge deal to me. They email me pictures of any issues they find and even offer to take me back to look at them. They have my business for years to come!

Excellent customer service, thanks Jessica! Scheduled oil/tire service and a few days later fan stopped working. Matt’s was able to accommodate the added problem... quickly found the cause and repaired all. Appreciated the simplicity of text/email updates (with photos) while at work, and everyone I talked to was super helpful and kind. The auto tech did an excellent job. Only a couple recs, the shuttle service confused me. Initially I understood could pick up my keys at 1230, then later was left message and told pick up vehicle anywhere from 1030 to 1230, which wouldn’t work. I ultimately had my husband take me to shop early in am instead of shuttle with plan to have my vehicle delivered to my work place end of day. By end of day I learned shuttle stops at 5 pm, car was ready after 5, so had to call husband to drive back into town and then to shop to get vehicle. Adding a detailed description of how the service works, times available, on website would have saved hassle for planning my first service at shop. I also found when people left me messages and asked that I call back, was frustrating trying to reach person who called because I was never given an extension or direct way to reach the person... spent a fair amount of time on hold. However, now that I understand how their shuttle service works, will be much simpler to arrange next time. I am relieved to find a shop I trust, thank you. I will be back.

Matt’s staff are professional and are consistent with making sure you get taken care of. They keep you informed about any looming issues with your vehicle, give you price quotes up front and help you determine a reasonable repair/maintenance plan for your vehicle that will ensure your vehicle stays reliable. Their service is top notch and you never have to wonder if it was done right.

Love Matt's Automotive!! I highly recommend. Very professional and friendly staff. Really awesome atmosphere. I was offered coffee while I waited and they had a TV. I got in right away and they kept me posted as to what was going on with my car. They were very thorough and showed me pictures of what they found. I trust them and that is very important to me!! It's also within walking distance of restaurants and shopping. Very convenient . They also left a cute stuffed animal on the booster seat I had in the back seat. Thanks Matt's Automotive!!

It was my first time taking my vehicle to Matt’s Automotive and the first impression was amazing. I was immediately greeted by Jessica and Will and felt at ease. I was offered a ride home, but hung out at the shop and was told to make myself at home since I was staying. It was really nice to be able to charge my phone at their charging station and watch TV while my vehicle was being looked at. I will definitely be taking my vehicle back to Matt’s and will recommend them to all of my friends.

Casey Hornung

13:25 23 Oct 19

Will is one awesome dude! I always get exceptional service at any Matt’s Automotive locations. Called Vern and needed to get some tires on my car. Was in and out quickly and Will made sure I got the car back before I had to get back on the road. Thanks Matt’s!

Marc Hedlund

I have been going to Matt’s for a while now and I am always pleased with how professional and courteous they are. They really take the time to listen to my concerns and are willing to work with me based on my needs. I love their road side assistance!! Thank you sooo much!

The team at Matt’s Automotive helped get my vehicle up and running incredibly quick. The various locations worked together to get my vehicle serviced quicker so I could get back up and running sooner, and the price came in lower than estimated as well. Overall it was an excellent experience and I would highly recommend them!

This was a great experience. The staff was efficient and pleasant. William made the experience very good with his earnest efforts to make sure I was kept informed about the status of my truck. I was especially impressed with the report I received when the inspection was completed. I was give a comprehensive report which included photos of what they found, I will be using Matt"s automotive again.

I needed a last minute oil change before leaving town. Luckily Will was able to get in and on the road in a timely matter. Customer service was great. I will definitely be coming back for maintenance and repair!

The staff at Matt's was very helpful and easy to work with. They were accommodating and dropped me off where I needed to go after leaving my car to be worked on. I love their in depth health report of the vehicle as well. I would recommend them!

I had a wonderful experience here at Matt’s Automotive Service Center. All the staff is very kind and explained everything to me each step of the way. I had a question about my invoice and was immediately called regarding my concern and everything was explain thoroughly. I will definitely be coming back!

Maggie Cowan

21:15 16 Sep 19

I was thoroughly impressed with my experience at Matt’s! My car broke down just outside of Matt’s so chose this shop based on location solely and now I will not go anywhere else! Very organized, clear layout of what should be done, easy acceptance process for quotes and the job was finished in a very timely manner. Thank you!

I just moved to the area and was in need of tires. I went in and from start to finish they were professional and friendly. I’ll definitely be taking my vehicle there when I need anything done! Wonderful place!

Amazing customer service! I have never been given such honest and trustworthy feedback from any car repair service. I had been quoted $800 for a radiator repair at another local establishment near Kmart- but was quickly recommended to Matt's by an awesome former customer in town. Matt's was able to diagnose the problem at around $130!! And, I just found out about perks of road-side assistance and service warranty! I honestly could not be happier! My only wish is that I had found out about these guys sooner (work off salary, not commission- I think that's all i need to know)! Oh BTW they basically inspect your whole vehicle and send you a text w the rundown- awesome.

I honestly haven’t experienced such prompt and respectful service at an automotive shop in years! After using dealerships for the past several years (and finally getting fed up with them) it was refreshing not to be “sold” anything other than what I made an appointment for that day. I went in for a routine oil change and the service was completed effectively and efficiently; I was in and out in 40 minutes at most. I didn’t have to wait around in a showroom or feel pressured by associates. While waiting, I hung out in the lounge area which was extremely clean, inviting, and comfortable. The staff treated me with respect and was welcoming the second I stepped in the door. Honestly, absolutely necessary, I will not go anywhere else to service my vehicle! Also, the online appointment booking was simple and verification of the appointment was done promptly. Thanks Matt’s Automotive Team, you all are the best!

First impression on entering the shop was pleasant surprise at the setting. Very clean and didn't have the typical grungy feel of many auto shops. The technicians I spoke with were all outstandingly helpful, knowledgeable, and quite pleasant to top it off. I went in to get a new set of all season tires and the employee walked me through different options and gave the impression he wasn't simply trying to make a sale but actually cared.

Ian Shattuck

01:10 14 Jun 19

This is the first time to Matt's. My car was overdue for an oil change, I called and got in the next day. The guys are very friendly and explained their inspection during the oil change. I didn't have to wait and was in and out quickly. Thank you! P.S. Your new plant looks very nice! :)

Steph Flatla

18:24 05 Jun 19

Great service! Communication is the best of any service center ever, the staff all speak knowledgeably and are happy to educate you, without being pushy about extra or other services. Will continue to use Matt's and recommend them to everyone!

Andrew Steinberg

21:42 23 May 19

I enjoy this place more than any other repair shop I've been to. They do not talk down to me like most other places but still explain things so I understand them (not a car savvy person). I also appreciate how they show all the recommendations and can let me know what is more important to get done sooner rather than pushing to do everything at once. Also, they have gotten me in quickly the couple times I've been there.

Morgan Eickhoff

22:59 16 May 19

I had something serious come up with my car and Matt’s auto service was able to fit me in the same day! Justin was very helpful and let me know everything that was going on and would let me know prices before they did anything to my car. I highly recommend going to Matt’s auto service!

Tori Archer

22:19 16 May 19

The staff at Matt's Automotive are definitely customer centered, that's one of the main reasons why I keep going back! I appreciated how Justin took the time to explain to me about what my car needed to have done. They are also very efficient, timely, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend them!

My wife and I have been going to Matt's Automotive service center for about 2 years. We trust them very much with how they handle our vehicles and with the reviews of our vehicles as well. They are always thorough and keep us informed of what needs to be addressed. We have been assisted at the desk by Vern whom is always friendly and informative. They have always done their best to make sure we either had a vehicle to loan for the day or a ride anywhere need when we dropped off our vehicle. We do all of vehicle work here. We will continue to be a loyal customer for many years to come.

Joshua Lunday

22:55 29 Apr 19

Matt’s is not my usual repair shop. We were helping our friends with their vehicle as they had to be out of town for a family emergency. The guys at the shop were so helpful and respectful of the situation. If anything ever happens at our usual repair shop, my family will switch all of our business to Matt’s. They even had a vehicle that I could use while the vehicle was being worked on.

David Kemper

12:14 26 Apr 19

Besides the friendly and welcoming atmosphere, the honest and down-to-earth approach is what brought me back. Who wants to spend money on repairs? But with their breakdown of the problem and the guarantees that becomes attached, it is worth it. Jason and his team were OUTSTANDING!

Gigia Augustin

15:04 13 Apr 19

The staff at Matt's Automotive are super stars! Very efficient, timely, reasonably priced, and customer centered. It is not easy to find honest mechanics with great skills and personalities to match... when you do... stick with them and tell your friends so they can rest assured that they are being taken care of and treated fairly! I recommend them highly!

01:33 13 Apr 19

Vernon at Matt's automotive is very helpful in fixing my car. They did an excellent job in completing the work and very patient while insurance took a long time to respond. They even provided a loaner car which was a life saver for me. I would definitely recommend Matt's automotive

Brought my car in after taking it to auto dealership and was charged half the price at Matt's I was charged at the dealership. Very pleased with service and price. Reccomend them and will be a loyal customer.

Jim Kunz

23:57 10 Apr 19

Always pleasant to work with. Vern was great at keeping me informed of status of repairs. I like the text communication and they picked me up and dropped me off. I will certainly use again.

Doug Griffin

19:18 10 Apr 19

I came to Matt's with many things wrong with my car. I informed them I wanted to know everything that was wrong with my car but I only had enough to fix certain things. They were amazing about working with me and my budget. They took the time to explain everything and keep me updated throughout the process. I would recommend them to anyone! Their prices are not crazy high and they can work you in if your in a pinch!

Breanna Hunecke

19:31 03 Apr 19

Great customer service! Loaner vehicles available. That was unexpected. Fixed problem that another local shop couldn't. Kept me updated as work was going on. First time customer. They get my business from now on. Thanks again!

Jeffrey Johnson

17:13 14 Mar 19

I had my vehicle towed in on a Sunday, when I called in on Monday morning they got it in same day and had a fix for me that same day. They presented all options super clearly and let me know the prices up front. Once a fix was decided, the work got done with good quality. The only problem I had was that the project did get delayed twice by a day, so not a huge deal.

Nick Mabee

22:45 13 Mar 19

Went to Matt's Automotive for an oil change. Great service and experience! Had my 4-year old nephew with (he had insisted on dressing as spiderman). When my car was done we even found a Matt's Auto beanie bear holding a pic of spiderman sitting his car seat. Made our day! Thank you!

My experience with Matt’s was one of the best, if not the best, vehicle repair experiences I have ever had in my lifetime of owning a vehicle. Their customer service was outstanding, the costs were appealing, and the technology platform they use to update customers on their vehicle inspection, estimates, repair feedback, and additional notes was like something I have never experienced! You have to check out Matt’s next time you need auto repair and care.

Dane Johansen

23:28 03 Jan 19

Everyone at Matt’s Automotive were wonderful to work with. I had a flawless experience and they went above and beyond finding a way to warranty parts that Corwin wouldn’t help me with. They went out of their way to get me a vehicle to drive while mine was getting worked on. Vern was especially outstanding!! I would highly recommend bringing your vehicle here for all your needs!

Candace Claus

I was having trouble with my Ford pickup not shifting properly and needed help, especially since I was over an hour from my home. I brought my truck to Matt’s, without having any knowledge of their business. I walked in the front door and was immediately impressed with the cleanliness and professional look of the front desk and lobby. I met with Jason and he was very honest and upfront with me. My truck was thoroughly inspected, over and beyond anything I had expected. Not only was my transmission issue diagnosed, but they gave me a detailed list of every other mechanical issue that needed repair. I was initially quoted a price for the transmission diagnostic, and at the end, that is all they charged me, even after spending a good amount of time looking over my entire truck! The communication from Matt’s was very appreciated. Jess was on the phone with me many times keeping me updated and did a great job explaining the final diagnosis. I have a daughter that just finished college in Fargo, and will be residing there working at her new job. Thankfully she lives nearby Matt’s Automotive. It gives a father piece of mind that I can comfortably send her to a honest business that takes pride in everything they do. Hard to find that quality in today’s world. Don’t expect to walk in and have your vehicle fixed immediately. I say that on a positive note! Good things are worth waiting for. Working in law enforcement, I learned to watch, listen and trust my ever growing gut! As I stood in the lobby and watched the number of customers herding into Matt’s, I realized they have obviously worked very hard to draw that kind of flow. Even though they deal with a large amount of customers, they can handle it...and make a point to do it without stressing. Overall, I cannot say enough about Matt’s. I appreciate privately run businesses that are successful in our corporate, box store world. Matt’s is a very fine example of this. Thank you to everyone at Matt’sfor your help and look forward to seeing you again! Sincerely, Paul

Matt’s Automotive Service was amazing to work with. I drive a Range Rover so it is hard to find good spots to work on my car in Fargo. They were upfront with all the costs. Worked with me to drop me off @ my apartment. Would highly recommend them to anyone needing auto service!

00:50 05 Dec 18

Their prices seem a little higher than average but they make up for it in service. Had my rear brakes replaced in May. Matt's will warranty work for 3yr/36kmiles. Well at the start of this winter I started to have issues with my new brakes squeaking when cold. I took my car in in mid November and they ended up replacing the rotors and pads that were squeaking and I didn't have to fight them to make it happen: the replaced them with a smile! If you're scared of mechanics I definitely recommend Matt's.

Oliver Isaac

I get regular oil changes and check ups keeping my car in good shape. New brakes this summer developed a squeak and they worked to make it right. Ask questions and they will explain.

The customer service here is some of the best I've had in the area. I went in to have my astro start looked at. It turned out just to be a quick fix and they didn't charge me. I am super appreciative of the team at Matt's. I would reccommend this business to anyone in the area.

I very highly recommend Vern Newman and his crewmen, all of them, but especially DAVE. Poor Dave was tasked to work on my 1993 Buick Roadmaster Hearse which had been sitting in a field for a while...Mice had taken over the air filter to use as nesting material and Dave duct-taped his jeans legs shut so the live ones wouldn't..well, you get the drift. I bought this car sight-unseen. I asked Vern to replace all the tires, hoses, everything rubber-y and hose-y, etc...And to make it safe enough for me to fly up to Fargo from Fort Worth, Texas and drive it home! And anything else he could find that needed fixing. He sent me pictures over text message to show me stuff that needed work and why. These guys are absolutely trustworthy. They didn't fix it if it wasn't broke, and they did fix what was broke! They went over my car for 3 weeks and made sure it was great! All this for a probably-not-returning customer. Hey, Vern...we sure could use you and your guys down here in Texas!!

I first took my car to another place (was quoted one thing and told another). I called Matt's in a panic and released my car to them from the other shop. Matt's kept me updated on everything by texts and calls! They made sure to call me before they did anything extra. Ended up having to have the other front wheel bearing changed and had to leave my car there. I got a loaner car for the time they had mine. When Matt's told me that there was a light on that was not there, Vern told me that he was not sending me out of the shop with that light on if I did not come in with it on. Found out that a tab got bent a little bit when the part got sent on. I did not have to pay any extra on it since he said it was an error on their part. I HIGHLY recommend Matt's!!! They are now my go-to place for all my repairs. Thank you so much.

My car was backed in to. I went to Matt’s through a referral of a friend. I was able to bring my car immediately in after speaking to Travis on the phone. Travis was awesome! He was super friendly and explained everything step-by-step to me. He was more than helpful! Also told me if I had any questions on how insurance is handling this or anything to call him and he will try to help which was above and beyond his job. Although I’ve never had to fix my car due to collision, I have been to different shops- and this one has had the best service I’ve delt with!

I always enjoy going to Matt’s auto. The staff is friendly and you’re treated with respect each and every time you step inside the establishment. I have always had great service and am treated with respect!

11:45 04 Apr 18

I am VERY pleased with service received at Matt’s Automotive!!! Extreme timely responses. Left initial email at 7:40 am and received phone call from VERN at 8:01! Appreciate straight forward, kind and understanding service. Had car serviced a month to date at another service center. They were BUSY yes. But Matt’s came back with info that could have/should have been made known to me month earlier. Not only did they explain car problems but emailed with pictures, all that was fine, all that was cautionary and what was absolutely the problem. Even MATT himself responded to emails. Unfortunately, car issues arose just days after the passing of my mother in law. I HAVE NEVER had a service center owner and manager express sympathy nor compassion to such a degree. VERN is a gem. What service center manager would offer a hug of COMPASSION. None dare I say!!!! And Matt!!! The community is blessed to have him out there building a business on HONESTY, INTEGRITY and PRINCIPLES!! My family and I thank you for your kind words and more than fair treatment regardless of our personal grieving!!! I will, and have, told anyone I know about how absolutely GREAT ALL STAFF at Matt’s Automotive are!!!! I will be back. You are now my “ go to guys “ and “gals”!!!!!! Thank you for the blessing you were at a difficult time of our life. I was very touched and will spread the word. Good guys do finish first!!!! You deserve every bit of your ratings and have gained lifelong customer!!! Continued growth and prosperity to you ALL!!! Your compassion and empathy will not be forgotten!!!! YOU ARE ALL ROCKSTARS!!!

18:27 30 Mar 18

Honest, competitively priced, expedient. Also friendly which was unexpected but not unappreciated. Vern at the front desk is friendly, professional, and has a unique ability to thoroughly explain everything in layman's terms. As I waited for my oil to be changed, I watched him handle several customers with the utmost diligence. Whoever is in charge of keeping the lobby clean is doing an excellent job because that place is spotless despite the slushy spring weather. Service was quick and very reasonably priced. I also used a $10 off coupon from the back of my Cash Wise receipt which was awesome. I will definitely recommend them to friends and family.

Eric H

03:13 10 Mar 18

Great service, Vern was very good about explaining the problems with our vehicle. Help to determine what was propriety to fix first. They also kept us updated on progress of the vehicle. I would highly recommend Matt's for your repairs.

I've been going to Matt's Garage for a little more than 2 years. Their warranty is awesome, the roadside assistance has saved the day, and I love how fast their services are along with the courtesy rides. The best part tho is that I'm never talked down to or 'mansplained' to. I'm treated with extremely professional courtesy and given all the information and time I need. Matt's Garage uses great visual tools, and also I love that they will text me updates. Recently Vern at the Fargo location spent 20 minutes on the phone, talking through my options because I'm in a position of... get a new car or fix my old one. Matt's Garage helped me make a decision I feel very good about. They have a customer for life in me!

Melanie Haven Gilbert

Awesome as always. Just did a transmission flush with them and they filled my tires with air. No questions at all. They are great there.

Josh Hoffart

21:07 19 Feb 18

Wow! Thanks for fixing my truck. Better yet, thank you Vern for educating me better than anyone ever has on technical issues with my truck. I was able to go home and "speak with confidence"! :-)

Marcia Davis

02:25 08 Feb 18

I received a much higher quote from my regular mechanic. Decided to look at other shops and Matt had the best price. Not only did they have a good price, but they provided great customer service. I will be returning not only for the price, but the unbeatable value they provide.

15:25 02 Feb 18

I am so glad I decided to go to Matt’s Automotive. They treat their customers with respect and appreciation. Everyone I interacted with was polite and friendly. They have such a wonderful reputation and give back to our community. It’s nice to find a shop I can trust. Another plus is having a courtesy car service. They are now my go to shop for all things automotive. Thank you.

23:55 01 Feb 18

Absolutely great service. From booking the appointment to picking up my vehicle, every part of the experience was excellent. Great customer service, very knowledgeable, kept me informed and up to date, made an effort to complete the work as soon as possible, and kept my costs as low as possible. Would definitely recommend.

Theodore Jetty Jr.

04:01 29 Jan 18

Very knowledgeable and helpful staff! Vern was able to answer my questions quickly, and in a way I understood. He was able to help me right then and there with a new remote for my AstroStart, which I really appreciated.

Jamie Neary

22:20 03 Jan 18

I called Matt's this morning at 9am. I told Vern at the Fargo store my concerns we were having with our vehicle & that Gateway had our vehicle for 6 days with said concern. I released my vehicle from the hands of Gateway due to lack of communication, along with other conflicts. Vern at Matt's Automotive Service Center was extremely helpful. Matt's had our vehicle for 6 hours & boom, vehicle fixed. 6 days compared to 6 hours! I cannot thank Matt's team enough. They are prompt, professional, poise & have exceptional customer service. Thank you Vern & all your guys to help us out. Expect spontaneous delicious pizza from us.

Ashley Tripp

00:03 13 Dec 17

Wonderful service! Very detailed in the process and what needed to be done. Great customer service from answering all my questions, explaining everything, to the teddy bears provided for my 2 children. Also a clean and inviting lobby to sit and work in while waiting. First class experience!

Stephanie Drietz

18:09 05 Dec 17

Definitely a five star business. Great communication & work done in a timely manner. They took the initiative to keep me updated on the status of my car repairs throughout the process. Top quality work & excellent customer service!

03:05 01 Dec 17

This was the first shop I've been in where they actually do progress updates, online reviews, and Actually do the follow up and the end of the day...Chris and the mechanic were super friendly and didn't over charge me for anything (rates are low). My vehicle needed a complete tune up and handful of other things replaced too. They had it done in 1 day.. I couldn't believe it!! The results are amazing. Drives like I just bought it from the dealership... Excellent Job!!! I just moved here last month and you guys have my business for life.

Jacob Brown

08:29 21 Sep 17

Amazing service. Staff is outstanding and the facility is amazing. They provide you with an estimate before hand so you know exactly what you're paying for. If you need a ride or vehicle they're very willing to help you out. I will definitely be going here for any future services and recommend this place to anyone looking for any type of automotive service or repair.

Ally Cull

13:58 26 Aug 17

We came to Matt's because our other mechanic closed. Matt's has treated us with respect and professionalism. We have never gotten the feeling they were trying to sell us on work we really didn't need done. From a major transmission fix to simple oil changes they have done great work and we will be repeat customers.

Lora Schoepp

16:24 17 Aug 17

I brought my car in for a little TLC since it had gotten over 100,000 miles on it. After a quick inspection Matt's Automotive called me with a few minor fixes that should be done. They described each problem they found, what needs to be done to fix it, and gave me a quote for each thing. Understanding that these things can be expensive, they gave me a variety of options depending on the severity of the problem. Unfortunately a week after my repairs one of the parts malfunctioned causing me to bring my vehicle back. Matt's Automotive took great care of my car, replaced the part that was defective, and gave me a car to drive in the mean time at no cost to me! Great guys and great service!

Tina Billings

19:56 10 Aug 17

Had a brake issue and brought my car in to Matt's. That were very friendly and did a diagnostic (which they capped so that I wouldn't wind up with some crazy unexpected charge). They found the issue and gave me a quote as well as went over some of the potential issues that could come up during the repair. The original work came in under the quoted amount. They discovered another issue and let me know about it before doing any work and gave me an estimate and let me decide first whether I wanted the additional work. That repair also came in under the estimate. They were fast in getting my repairs done, very knowledgeable, and very friendly. Highly recommend them. I dealt with Chris and he was great to work with.

Ian Cole

00:09 05 Aug 17

I bring my car to Matt's because the employees have always given me detailed information about problems and options. They explain procedures, answer my questions, and provide better-than-usual warranties of their work. In addition, they reward customers with things like roadside assistance and now, a cash back gift card on repairs. As a customer, I am both respected and appreciated. I've been a customer of Matt's for a few years and recommend them frequently to friends and people at work.
