This last Friday is the second time I have used Aim High Automotive services. I have a 2005 F-150 that needed the A/C and e-brake checked. About 3 hours after leaving the truck I was called to be notified of the problems and what was needed. After I approved, they had the truck ready the same day at 5:15 pm. The A/C and e-brake work like new.The quality of their service and work is as great as it was about a year and a half ago when I brought the truck the first time. This coming week I will be leaving a Honda for them to work in the struts.

Bill and the techs at Aim High are excellent. Sometimes its hard to find repair shop with integrity. This is it. They are fast working and estimates are spot on and the times I have went in to pay, they were lower than the estimate. Bill is very easy to talk to and professional. Thanks again.

This is by far the best auto repair shop in the Des Moines area. They are honest and professional. They do a fantastic job on everything they service. I moved 240 miles away and will still get my oil change done here.

Very honest and fair. Great communication and great price. After being quoted almost double for this work to be done they were able to get me in sooner and for way less then anywhere else. Highly recommend for any service you need done.

Highly recommend. The only place I will go for my car care needs.

Bill and his team are always amazing and doing whats best for each customer.

Came into the shop and they were swamped with business and a man down for the day. They still got me in and out with a foreign vehicle that many others turned away. I am so grateful that I ended up at AIM HIGH. They even stayed $40 under what they quoted me even after running into issues. This is the only place I’d come back to in the area!

Bill gave me a quote and replaced my alternator for a fair price.The service and customer service was great. The repair solved the issue and now we have a functioning vehicle.

Very prompt and professional. Took the time to explain exactly what was wrong with my daughters vehicle and fixed it the same day. Will definitely use them again!

Bill is one of the greatest mechanics that Ive ever had the pleasure of dealing with. He was very polite and concise when explaining things to me and was fair in his pricing. I live almost an hour away, but I will continue to use Bill for any future automotive issues that I may have. I would recommend Aim High Automotive to anyone at any time.

Staff is so helpful and honest. Would recommend to all persons in Ankeny. Prices are very competitive.

Just moved to the area and wanted to find a shop that would fix my truck right the first time. They knocked it out of the park! They have small town values in the city. Fast service and very reasonably priced while keeping the customer first. I will definitely be going back to support this small business!

This place takes integrity to the highest level. My son was given a $3000 estimate to fix his AC at another shop, and they fixed it here for a total of $100. I didn’t think you could still find a business run the “old fashioned way” any more. My son has been back a total of 4 times and I’ve gone there once with all outstanding results. ~ Frank C. and son Eddie

Bill did a great job for a very fair price. He wont try to screw anyone over.

Trustworthy and great value!

When I first went in with my car, the man attending me was obviously busy and had things that were pressuring him. When I went to pick up my car, he apologized for being as he described it short with me. This is supposed to be a review on the business, and it is. A business is no better than the people that make up what it is. This mans humility was rare. This mans way he handled himself that day as a representative of the company to me was worth more than five stars.

One Thursday night, two lights of my Honda minivan lighted up. Although I know very little about cars, I knew that I couldnt drive it to the Honda dealer, which is about 15 miles away. I had to find a car repair shop nearby. I was super nervous since I knew little about cars and not sure whether I will be asked for too much for the diagnosis and repair. Friday morning, I searched online and found Aim High Automotive with all 5 star reviews. I read some of them and found the words like honest, fair price, quick, treat customers car as their own etc, which made me relieved and decided to call Aim High. I was told that I could bright my car in and they could work on it that morning. After I met Bill when bring my car in, I felt more relieved and had a peaceful mind. He is very kind and he trusts his customer. They repaired my car and replaced the tires in several hours. From my experience, Aim high deserves all of the good words that the customers wrote in their reviews. I highly recommend Aim High Automotive. Thank you, Bill!

Excellent. Best auto shop experience I have ever had! Would send my grandmother there.

After getting quotes from 4 different mechanics I decided to give Aim High a shot. They were a $1000 less expensive, had excellent communication as far as when my vehicle would be done and only had it for a day and a half.They now have my business from here on out. To everyone at Aim High, thank you so much!

Excellent service. Top notch. Highly recommended!! Fair and honest. Doesnt come much better that these guys!

Bill, owner of Aim High Automotive, is the expert you want to have work on your vehicle. He has been working on our vehicles for years. My car needed 3 services & he had me in & out in 1 day. He charges very fair prices for his services. The dealership where I bought my car gave me a free first oil change & told me I needed my brakes done & gave me an estimate. Bill saved me $350.00 on my brakes & more on the other services he provided. Thanks Bill!!

I moved to Ankeny about a year ago, and when I saw that Aim High was just down the street from my house, and read their stellar reviews, I knew I had to give them a try. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Bill Doyle is the owner of the company, but he doesn’t just sit behind a desk and tell people what to do, he is personally involved with repairs as well. They are a small, family owned business, and they are great people who treat their customers with respect every time. Though they are extremely popular and have many customers, they will always get you on their schedule within a reasonable timeframe, and if they have an opening sooner than your scheduled appointment, they will call you and try to get you in early. They are swift with repairs, while still maintaining accuracy and quality, they always make sure that you have your car back when you need it, with everything taken care of.I trust Bill and his team completely, and the quality of their work is top-notch. They have provided absolutely amazing service to me, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a mechanic they can trust. Their prices are fair and reasonable, and unlike other mechanics I’ve been to, they are always honest about what needs to be fixed on your vehicle. If they find something that needs fixed that wasn’t expected, Bill or a member of his team will always call you first to make sure you want to proceed with fixing the problem, rather than doing it without your permission. If you’ve gotten an estimate from another mechanic and something seems fishy, go to Aim High and ask them to do their own free estimate to make sure it seems right. Whether you have a problem with your vehicle, just need a routine oil change, or anything in between, Aim High Automotive is the place to get it done right for a fair price. I will never take my vehicle anywhere else again!

Took my Jeep here a few days ago. Got it fixed up right away and at an affordable price. Plus I could walk to this place from my house! Its awesome to have such a professional mechanic so close to home.

Chose this place strictly by reading reviews, as i was in a pinch! They did not disappoint! Honest, and straight to the point. Affordable and quality. Great Job! Definitely recommend and will visit again!

Bill is very upfront, including very practical advice for some quirky problems with my old van. (For comparison, even the dealer wouldnt help me with my van)

Great staff! Very knowledgeable! They do good and expedient service. The team at Aim High Automotive had me back on the road in lesser hours than expected . I highly recommend.

Fantastic service! They are now my go-to.

Bill was very accommodating to my needs, got me in and out fast, was knowledgeable and priced fairly. I would recommend Bill and his shop to anyone!!!Thank You! Bill

I have lived in Ankeny for a couple years now. Since moving here I have always used Aim High Automotive. Service is exceptional to say the least. Prices are also very reasonable. Dont waste your time going anywhere else.

Quality work by excellent staff. Priced right.

These people are what you want mechanics to be. Sent my wife in with a wiper fluid pump problem I didnt have time to fix and they were fantastically honest. Amazing folks. We wont go anywhere else ever again.

Outstanding service and would highly recommend the work done by Aim High Automotive. Very reasonable cost and they were able to get our car in quickly and complete the work the same day. Great experience.

Probably one of the best mechanics in the entire metro. The owners able to get you in promptly and always at a reasonable price. Ive never had to doubt his quality, and you can rest assured that any car issue you took it in for wont reoccur. Great guy to work with and a repeat customer. Thanks!

I was very happy with the service and the price! Bill said I only needed part of what someone else from another automotive shop quoted me on repair work. I saved money and he was very honest and personable! I highly recommend Aim High Automotive😊

My Town and Country was making a squeaking noise coming from the front right wheel. I called and Brian said I could bring it in right then at 3 in afternoon. I brought it in and he and Bill diagnosed and fixed the issue in a few minutes. Both guys were very professional, knowledgeable and provided excellent service. I will definitely be bringing both my cars there from now on!

Brakes went out as I pulled into town. Dropped it off at 10pm on Friday. New brake lines installed and ready to roll out on Tuesday even though I told him I would be out of town for the week. Spent time to show me the technology used to ensure the lines would outlast the rest of the truck. As a shop teacher, I was so impressed with the work and detailed explanation, I asked him to give it a complete checkup.

I called on a very cold day because my truck was having a battery connection issue and would not start. I got it running but I was concerned with it happening again. Bill told me to bring it in and he got right to it. He made some adjustments and got me confidently back on the road. I appreciate the quick service and I will definitely be back when my 2002 S10 decides to have another issue. Thank you for your help!!! A friend has used AIM High for some brake work in the past and was very satisfied with his work and price. Give them call with your auto repair needs. I will.

Excellent local place to get your vehicle serviced. They are very knowledgeable about vehicles and give you honest and accurate information.

Great service with great results. Hard to get a good honest mechanic.This is the place!Bill very good .explained everything and reasonable prices

I have been going to Bill for several years for my automotive repair needs. I have been very satisfied. He is honest and reasonable. It is not easy finding an automotive repair shop that is honest and/or not over priced. I have no reservations in sending my friends and family. In fact, I have.

I cant tell you how grateful I am to Aim Automotive. My fuel pump went out on my car and I was stranded. I called my normal mechanic and they said that it would be two weeks at least before they could get it in. Obviously I could not go 2 weeks without a car so my dad referred me to AIM. He had had some work done and was happy with the results. I called them and had my car back in 48 hours. Much better than 2 weeks for sure. They were friendly when I talked with them on the phone and in person. The most important thing to me was they didnt try to sell me on a bunch of extra services that I may or may not have needed. The price was more than fair considering I had to have it towed to there place and they were fitting me in during the week. I appreciate everything they did for me last week especially since I was in such a jam. I will use them in the future for sure. Thanks again to the staff at AIM Automotive.

Ive been here a couple time since the switch to Aim High Automotive and have had nothing but great things to say! Bill is an honest mechanics and really knows his stuff. His work has always been quick and very affordable. I will definately be returning to Aim High Automotive for all my car needs. Thanks Bill, keep up the outstanding work!

I started going to aim high about six months ago. So far Aim High has put tires on both of our cars, performed routine maintenance, and extensive work done, which involved my insurance company. Aim High came through for me on all of these! I really love their alignments! Ours car have never driven so straight and smooth! Bottom line, Aim High is a complete and trustworthy shop that leaves us satisfied every time !!!

The first time I brought my car to Aim High it was for oil or brakes or something simple. They told me it was probably time to replace the timing belt. I figured this was the same sort of upsell nonsense you get at the quick lube places and said, Maybe next time.Well, I was right about the next time part because the second time I brought my car to Aim High was on the back of a tow truck after my timing belt broke a few months later. Fortunately, the engine was non-interfering so the lesson in trusting an honest, courteous and capable mechanic like Bill wasnt dearly bought. I recommend anyone looking for a good mechanic at least give Aim High a try.

What a great experience! We just moved to Ankeny and needed work done on our vehicle before travelling for the Holidays. Bill was able to get all the work done that afternoon and we were ready to hit the road. While waiting in the customers lounge, I saw how passionate Bill was about his work and his customers. Just a great team who does great work! Thanks a heap Bill!

I had a great experience. I stopped in one day with questions and I could get in the next day. I had comfortable surroundings to wait in as my car was repaired. Bill was helpful and answered my questions. The repair was done sooner than originally quoted. Its a place I would recommend for car repair.

Great service. Honest and trustworthy. If you want a mechanic you can trust at a fair price, this is it.

Ive worked with Bill since he was with Dewey Ford. In my opinion he is one of the best mechanics in Iowa. My lexus died randomly when I was driving and wouldnt start after that. When I saw that Bill had opened his own shop, I didnt think twice about where I wanted to take my car. He was EXTREMELY thorough with his inspection, probably more than my hour diagnostic was worth in time and money. I would highly recommend you going to Aim High, you will never meet a more honest and brilliant mechanic. Thanks for your help Bill!

I had a great experience at Aim High today. I had some parts from my Jeeps lift kit that I needed installed and Bill got me in right away and got it done quick. The prices were good, nice facility, and friendly staff. Will return in the future if I need any auto work done.

One of lifes challenges is to find an honest, knowledgeable, and trustworthy mechanic. Bill Doyle at Aim High is all of these and then some. He has helped me out on a couple of occasions now with an older car that my teenage daughter drives. We cant afford to buy her a newer car, so we need to keep this one running and with Bills mechanical expertise and honest business practices, he has NEVER DISAPPOINTED me! Do yourself a favor and the next time you need a repair on your vehicle-take it to Aim High and you wont regret that decision. Aim High has earned my business and my loyalty. Keep up the excellent work, Bill! We sincerely appreciate you getting our car back on the road.

Honest, Quality service. Bill is amazing! They can do anything, and it’s always done right. Refreshing to have a mechanic shoot straight.

I recently went here to have work done on my car. I called needing to get my car in right away. They told me to bring it right in and were able to get my car fixed and taken care of quickly. The owner, Vince, was very friendly and helpful! I will definitely be returning for any future auto needs and would recommend to others!

Very friendly and trustworthy workers. They got me in last minute working through their lunch hour. They also gave me complimentary steering wheel fluid. Quality service, affordable prices, and amazing staff.

AIM High Automotive is my new favorite place for car repair.The new waiting area is great, and theyve got one of only 1,400 mechanics nationwide with a Senior Masters in automotive repair.Affordable rates, great service.

I took in my daughters car for a grinding noise coming from the rear wheel. I was pretty sure I knew what was wrong and the approximate cost to fix. Turns out, my usual mechanic had no immediate openings, but they were able to get me in right away. When the part needed was delayed in shipping, they kept me informed and even offered to provide courtesy rides wherever I needed to go. Great shop and quick honest work.

Just want to say thanks to Bill at AIM Auto! Fast, friendly, and reliable service! I was referred there by a friend and was apprehensive at first as you never know what you are going to get when you get your car worked on. Can honestly say I will never go anywhere else. Ive had brakes, oil change and other engine work done by Bill. Quality work! and I wasnt sold things i didnt need!!!

Decided to take my car here since I was having no luck elsewhere, Bill replaced a part that had just been previously replaced, so I was skeptical that my car would be fine. Turns out he knew what he was doing and the other place I took it to did not. My car has been great for over a few weeks now, with no problems. He gave me his honest opinion and he was right, also told me that if I had any more problems since I was worried about it to just bring it back in. Great service and a working care :) Thank you so much!!!

Got my ties balanced for $40. Not a bad price considering the city. This place was really fast! I called them at 9:00 am and am writing this review with a balanced car at 12:00. Thanks guys at Aim High!!!

Great place. Ask for Bill and he will help you get it done right.

I was having some issues with my car, the coolant was leaking. I called and spoke to Brandon and Bill, I brought my car in on Wednesday to be looked at. I had asked if they had wifi so that I could work while they looked at my car and Bill made sure to give me the wifi password. I was in and out in about 40 minutes. They put dye in the coolant and had me continue to drive it and watch for the fluorescent green and if I saw it bring it back in. So I did just that on Thuraday, he called same day to get pricing and had the replacement part Friday morning. Got it fixed in probably record time. Such kind and amazing people! We will most definitely take our cars there from now on.

They were so helpful, didnt try to talk down to me and didnt overcharge. Ill be going there for all my auto work

Aim High Automotive is the only place we take our vehicles due to the honesty, quick turn around, and knowledge this business is able to provide. This garage is a rare find in terms of population size. I would encourage anyone to check it out. You wont be disappointed.

I highly recommend Bill Doyle & the Aim High Automotive Staff for all auto repairs. The staff is professional, understanding, & kind. The facility is clean & very well kept. I trust all my vehicle repairs to Aim High.

Excellent experience! I needed a mechanic in Ankeny, and these guys were awesome. They were honest, did the work that needed done (and nothing else!) They were quick -diagnosis of a problem AND a fix in under 2 hours. Called on Friday afternoon, got an appointment for the next Monday. Couldn’t have gone any better!

I had a great experience with Aim High Automotive. My car wouldnt start one morning, so I called three repair shops and no answer. Seconds later, my phone rang and it was Bill from AIM High. Hed missed my call (I didnt leave a message), but called back in case I needed something. He arranged for a tow truck, so I didnt have to, when he figured the issue out, I got a call, he gave me an estimate and went to work. Being a lady, Im always skeptical when dealing with anything auto related...I always assume I going to be taken advantage of. Bill was friendly and easy to work with and his cost estimate was on target. I HIGHLY recommend AIM High and am pleased to have found a go-to auto repair shop I can trust.

Aim High got us an appointment last minute to do a vehicle check before we purchased it. They were very accommodating and did a full check up and gave us recommendations. Very helpful, quick, and thorough!

Looking for a good honest, reliable place to take your car? Sanders Auto Lab is the best place to go. Vince Sanders, owner, and his staff and honest, professional, and can fix anything -- from changing oil to replacing an engine. I have taken my car to him since the 80s; now my daughter, and grandchildren take their cars to Sanders.

Took my car to Aim High Automotive after getting an alignment from another shop in town. It was clear something was still wrong with the car. Aim High was able to get my car in the next morning and was completed later that day. They were affordable and unlike the first shop everything was fixed and working great when I picked it up.

Fast reliable service at affordable prices. Wouldnt take my cars anywhere else.

I highly recommend this repair facility. All work was done in a timely manner and at a fair price.

I showed up at the shop w/o an appt. 5 minutes before close. Bill stayed almost another hour to make sure that my vehicle was safe to drive before I left. Please consider giving Aim High Automotive your business!!!

I had an issue where too much oil was put in my car, and it was in desperate need to an oil change..Was referred to them by a co-worker and called in with about 2 1/2 hours before their closing time. They were able to get me in the same day and checked out in a timely manner!Before leaving i was presented a sheet for possible future repairs, but they gave me a good time frame of when certain things would need maintenance before causing additional future issues. Its nice to not feel rushed to fix everything!Overall, everything went smooth and quick and would recommend them to anyone looking for Auto Service in the future. Great Service!

Brought an older car in and explained my goals for the car considering its age and value. Bill understood my objectives and performed some reasonable repairs that kept the car safe and functioning, shop was easy to communicate with plus excellent customer-service.. will be back again.

The owner was very sincere. He didnt try to scam me or have me pay for something I didnt need. The shop is very clean and professional. Definitely would recommend this business to my friends and family.

I chose Aim High Automotive over other automotive service shops in the area in no small part due to reading the many reviews from other customers, all of which are exceedingly positive.Having been a customer since earlier this year, I too have nothing but positive experiences, and I offer an unfettered recommendation to anyone in the market. Whether you just need a particular service/repair, or, like me, youd like to establish a lasting service relationship, (as one might with a doctor or lawyer) Aim High is an excellent choice.For the important criteria I look for in an auto shop - price, knowledgability, honesty, speed, and quality/workmanship - Mr. Doyle and his business meet or exceed all expectations without exception.Mine has been a 5-star experience through and through. I have no hesitation to opine that this is a true gem in the Des Moines area.

Fair and honest. Great prices. Give them a shot. You wont be sorry!!!! Cleanest bathroom Ive ever seen in a shop.

My daughter is going to school and we are a state away. Her car was having trouble. How many ways could this go wrong???Bill was able to get us in and look the car over. He gave us an estimate to fix the items I knew were a problem and also pointed out some other items that needed attention that I had not seen.Saved us from having a broken down car on the side of the road in the Iowa winter.We thank Bill for helping us out. It feels good to have someone I can trust to send my daughter to if we have any other issues.

I highly recommend Aim High Automotive! Reasonably priced, friendly, honest service! Happy to support a local Ankeny business.

AMAZING PLACE!!! HIGHLY RECOMENDED!!!! They came in late after hours to work on my car and the pricing was amazingly reasonable. I will never go anywhere else but him and if I had a choice to tip him I would have!!!!!

I had car trouble while heading from Chicago to California. My grandpa lives in Ankeny and recommend Aim High. I was very happy with the service. He was honest, friendly, and got my car running fast.

Bill did a great job with going through in detail and fixing problems on my new used vehicle purchase. Really felt like he went the extra mile and was up front and honest with everything that needed to be addressed. I would recommend aim high to anybody.

Very friendly staff, knowledgeable and efficient. My husband (former mechanic himself)) sends our car work that he doesnt want to do himself to Bill.

Oustanding local service at a very good price. Local owners who live in Ankeny and understand how to take care of their customers. I will definitely use them again in the future.

Visited Aim High for the first time this week. Very impressed. Professional, reasonable and trustworthy. Will be going back.

This is a great place to get your car fixed, I take any of my cars that need an Alignment done to Bill he does great work.

Bill is great to work with. Fast, Friendly and Prices are reasonable. Will be going back!!!

Took my car here on a whim because my normal mechanic is always days out from being able to get me in. Bill squeezed me in ASAP, communicated exactly what I needed to know, and was well priced. I will certainly go back.

Great service, Bill fit me in and had my repairs done fast. Great shop. I will be back.

Bill always does great work on our vehicles. Trusted place to take your vehicles!

The service here was fantastic. Bills recommendations for my car repair saved me hundreds. This will be the only place I take my vehicles. Thanks Bill!

Fast, efficient, honest and very fair pricing.

Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. Service was quick and well done. Ill be using them in the future.

Thank you so much for fixing our car!! You have earned a customer for life!! Runs great!!

Fair Prices; very reliable/honest; friendly people. they have you and your vehicles best interest at heart.

Look no further this is the shop you need to take your vehicles for repairs or maintenance! My experience couldnt have gone better ! Very reasonably priced, and excellent customer service!

Bill is great so work with! Saved me so much money compared to going to dealership service center

Clear. Concise. Professional. I will suggest to any and all.

Great Customer Service, was honest, timely and was willing to go the extra mile when I was in a time crunch! stayed late to finish.Thanks Bill and the crew at Aim High!

First time at this business. Very helpful and seemed competent. Will return.

Great service and good to work with!
