The prices are very fair for the quality of work they do. I brought my car there on a recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed. Not only did the owner give me a great price, but he communicated with me every step of the way, finished the work before his time estimate, and he took me home and picked me up when my car was ready.

Extremely unprofessional, donΒ΄t waste your money with them. If there was the choice of giving them minus 5 stars I would do that, because they donΒ΄t deserve a single star. Worst service ever! All they want is your money, they donΒ΄t care about people or their belongings.

I’ve been here twice and they’re always willing to help and always give a detailed explanation, which I admire. They previously gave me the best deal in town to have my Jeep repaired and then continue to give me the best deal they can, I’m blown away really. I’ve never wanted to pay full price more. They are friendly and quick. If you want a mechanic who will actually care about your business, they’re the best in town! Thank you guys!

Great service. I live three hours away from Raymonds Auto Repair and unless its not possible, I make the three hour drive to have them service my vehicles. The reason why is because they are transparent and I KNOW the repairs will be done right.

Review β„–15

I really wish I could give more than 5 stars. I called and described what my car was doing and the owner knew exactly what it was. They were able to fix the part that everyone else said they would have to remove my dashboard and cost me more than $1500 and this was fixed without doing that and definitely not needing to pay that high price. Now I will have heat and NO MORE TICKING!!! Such awesome service and I am definitely coming back here when I need it. I will refer everyone to come to Raymonds.

Review β„–29

Highly recommend this place! As a women, a lot of mechanics try to tell me: this needs repairing, or that needs repairing. At Raymonds, they have never tried to sell a repair that was not needed. And when I have taken my car in for a 2nd opinion, they tell me the person who said I needed that repair done was nuts. Support local. Support Raymonds!

I am very very happy with the service that was provided! They were not only very honest they were kind! Their prices are more then reasonable! I explained that it was my only vehicle and considering the amount of work that needed to be done they had it back to me in less then 24hrs. They didn’t try to β€œsell” me on fixing things that didn’t need immediate attention and that was much appreciated. I highly recommend them for your car repair needs!

Review β„–34

My drivers side door handle broke. Raymond was so helpful and recommended that I order the part on line to get a better price. I found the part, took it to Raymond, and he repaired it good as new. Not only did he save me over $120 on this repair (as opposed to what the dealership would have charged) but he provided a ride to work and a ride back to the shop after the repair was complete. I highly recommend Raymonds Auto and will utilize them again I have a need.

Where do I start? Let’s just say tht junior, the owners son goes above and beyond to make sure all his customers are taken care of in a very timely manner, also the cheapest in town! No doubt about that! He takes time outta his day to make sure your vehicle is running top notch at its finest! I’ll ALWAYS go there for any vehicle repair that I need done. I’d highly recommend anyone and everyone to give him a shot at your vehicle and I guarantee you you WONT be disappointed whatsoever! No matter what the problem is, he has you covered and it’s a great feeling!

Raymonds went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and get me back on the road. They operated with efficiency, intelligence, and integrity. They even stayed almost two hours passed their closing time to make sure I got home safely. Raymonds prices are affordable and fair. They did excellent work and even suggested a few more issues with my car that I did not know about. Everyone was respectful, kind, and very accommodating. I will be back! Thanks you for all of your help!

The absolute best! They pride themselves in their fair prices and honesty, and make it a point to be upfront about what needs to be done and what you should expect to pay. Randy WILL figure out what is wrong with your car, and fix it quickly and efficiently.Hes never condescending, never takes advantage of their customers -- which I especially appreciate as someone who knows nothing about car repairs, car shops can be a bit intimidating.Raymonds care about their customers and their safety.

Review β„–41

I can’t say enough positive words for my experience with Raymond’s the past few days! I had never been there before, and when my car broke down he got me in the same day, and had my car up on the hoist shortly after arriving. The news I got wasn’t great, as it wasn’t a common problem. They were able to find the part needed and fix my car and have it fixed in the matter of a couple days. He even stayed late to make sure my car got done. I was expecting to wait at least a week for my car to be fixed, and I drove it home two days after dropping it off. Randy was honest about what was wrong and was fair with his pricing. When I came to pick it up I gave him a big hug I was so thankful to him and his shop. I never felt disrespected or taken advantage of which is a great feeling being someone who really doesn’t know about cars. I highly recommend anyone to use Raymond’s for their car needs, I’ll definitely be going there if I need anything more in the future!

I went in with the understanding something major was wrong with my car. He took the extra time to go over everything first which I am very glad he did because he found the issue which ended up saving me a lot. I think he went above and beyond what is expected and I appreciated and will recommend to anyone I know of for the very fast, high quality, and extra friendly service.

I came into Raymonds crying and upset due to my car accelerating on its own almost causing an accident with a pedestrian. Randy was AMAZING! He took very good care of me and got me up and running quickly. Moved here from Colorado so of course was sticker shocked when the price of repairs was as low as it was. I understand now why they are so busy. He was upfront and honest about work needed and what was important to fix now and what could wait to be fixed. I really appreciate all you have done for me. And definitely will be referring anyone who needs repairs to Raymonds.

Came here when I was having brake issues, wasnt getting any pressure to my brakes and it was very concerning with the winter season coming up. They took care of me and had my car done and back out in less than 24 hours. Drove like it was brand new. They also found other issues tht could have been very serious that I wasnt aware of. Helped out so much and I recommend them and will go to them in the future with any future concerns or questions.

Big Randy and Son were the only mechanics in our small town knowledgeable enough to get my GMC Terrain up and running after I swapped out bad 2010 2.4 ecotec for 2012 2.4 ecotec from a Buick Regal. Even doing research online for months few folks know how this is done. They Rock!!!!

Review β„–61

If I could give no stars, I would! I took my car in to have it looked at today. I had to wait a half hour longer than I was told to be there, because he didnt know a battery was dead on a vehicle he was already working on. A young looking kid clunked something under my car because he didnt have the thing low enough that raises my car. Raymond didnt put any cover on my seat before getting in, so now my seat is all greasy! When I got in my car my seat wouldnt move all the way forward after he moved it. He got an attitude and refused to fix it. He blamed it on a bar thats attached to my seat. Then, he got in and started driving without telling me what he was doing and was really rough driving it, after he just told me to be careful since my tie rod is about to fall off. He left my car parked on the side of the road and for me to tend to it myself. When I told him I was going to sue him, his response was You dont have any money Ive never been treated so rudely by someone whos supposed to be a professional!!! On top of having broken things in my car, my heater is now squealing and not working right since he looked at my car. It was NOT trash that made my seat quit working, but my kids cup, to which he broke because he didnt care enough to pay attention! I was never asked to leave, he threw his arms up and walked away.

Randy is a great guy - honest, upfront, and not into BSING people about auto repairs. He went above and beyond, even made sure I got home after dropping my car off and getting me back to the shop. After a ridiculously inflated quote by another garage, he correctly diagnosed the problem, fixed it, and my car is driving great. This is where I will bring my vehicles from now on for repairs. The combination of quality, price, and good people make this a no-brainer. Bring your vehicle to Raymonds, best garage in Bay City. Thanks again bud, appreciate you helping me out!!

Review β„–92

These guys are trustworthy and straight-shooters.No B.S.I had a bad experience at two other auto repair shops (Terminue and Muffler Man in Bay City) and when I finally went to Raymonds Auto--they leveled with me, treated me in a respectful way and clearly explained exactly what was wrong. They didnt try to rip me off or use scare-tactics/fear-tactics to extract more money out of me like some of the other shops tend to do.The problem they found literally could have saved my familys life. Heres what happened:I had a power-steering issue and went to Terminue. The mechanic fixed the power-steering issue, but when I drove away, I noticed a loud thumping sound coming from the front of the car. Hmm, thats odd--never had that problem before. So I went back to Terminue and they said it was the plastic panels that protect the under-carriage. He told me that there was no thumping noise now and everything is good. Okay, fine. So I drove away again and what-do-ya-know?? Same thumping noise. Did he even test drive and check it? No way. Because had he drove it, he immediately would have noticed the thumping. So, instead of going back to Terminue for the 3rd time, I went over to Muffler Man. They checked out the problem and told me it was the rods. Then he said that the rods could puncture through the hood and/or the dash. Told me that it was extremely dangerous. Yes, that freaked me out. Im visualizing steel rods impaling me or my wife and kids. The price they quoted me was steep. My gut-instinct was telling me that something was off with the Muffler Man guys. I left their shop and went to Raymonds. I was literally at my wits-end and getting more and more pissed off. The mechanics at Raymonds checked out my van and test drove it. Thats when they discovered the real problem. They couldnt believe that the other mechanics at both Terminue and Muffler Man failed to notice that the lug nuts were completely loose and that the front drivers side tire was about to fall off. For the record, Im not talking crap about Terminue as a whole...because for years Ive had my oil changed there and everything has always been fine. Its just that this one incident left a bad taste in my mouth. You know, one inept mechanic at Terminue, who was more-than-likely on auto pilot, failed to notice that when he removed the tire to fix the power-steering he didnt tighten the lug nuts on the drivers side wheel. He had plenty of chances to catch the problem.Then over to Muffler Man--they also didnt notice the problem. I explained the thumping in detail. Basically I said that whenever I accelerate the thumping momentarily stops...but whenever I take my foot off the accelerator the thumping would start up and become loud. The rods they said. Wrong.Raymonds actually took the time to correctly diagnose the issue. They systematically figured it out by eliminating all possible reasons. Thats the intelligent way to do things. My tire was close to falling off. Had I been on the freeway with my family and the drivers front tire would have fallen off...sheesh, I cant even imagine.Anyhow, Raymonds earned my business and Ive been telling my family and friends about them as well.
