Always professional and do a great job. I’ve been going to Hopkins for almost 10 years. Top notch.
They missed a huge issue with my engine and convinced me it was a separate issue. Caused engine failure, which could have been avoided or fixed earlier. They have been consistently rude to work with as well, which I would normally forgive, but thought I would mention.Overall, if you need basic work done then they are, admittedly, decent; but I wouldnt go to them if there was a real problem or if your not very knowledgeable about your car. Long turn around time as well.
Super friendly staff and speedy service. I highly recommend this local business for your automotive repairs.
Jeff, Jeff & Donny (sorry I dont know anyone elses name) are the absolute best! They do the best work! They truly care about their customers! They only want to help you and never try to hustle you. I cant say enough wonderful things about Hopkins other than thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you have done for me!!
Took my car in for an oil change. They got my auto in quickly and had it ready when I needed it. And Hopkins Auto is in the neighborhood!! It was definitely a win!
Very good automotive repair shop, Jeff hopkins is a very honest and fair person
I have gone to Hopkins for service for years. They provide excellent service and great customer support. I highly recommend Hopkins Automotive to anyone in need of service on their vehicle.
On website it says they have a taxi service I called three times all three times the person was rude and told me they do not drive people back to their homes
Great service great prices
These guys are awesome! I dropped my car off late at night and couldnt come get it until after they closed. They worked with me and made it a stress free experience. Highly recommend! They do a wonderful job for a great price!
Hopkins is one of the best. Jeff is a straight shooter and is very honest. I started taking my cars to them a few years ago after my brother-in-law suggested them and I have not looked back. I dont take my car to anyone else for service anymore. There is a reason this place is always super busy and its because people trust Hopkins and they do great work!
I had friends in the auto industry when I moved to Indianapolis. I asked them for an honest and competent mechanic. Independently of each other, 3 picked Hopkins. They said the work is done right and most importantly for a non-mechanic like me, they only do what you need. They do not up sell their work.I drive older cars. Two times he has given me a quote on work but then added at this point I wouldnt do it if I were you. Hes also done things like fix a vacuum leak with duct tape saying well see if that holds for a year or so before we decide to order an expensive part.Yes, the phone calls can be...abrupt. He didnt go to school to be a phone receptionist. Hes more friendly in person, but still his game is auto repair, not phone conversing. Get over it.
I had an electrical issue in my truck, which Jeff and his team resolved in a short period of time at a fair price. I would not hesitate to go back and anticipate doing so if I have a need.
My husband and I and our adult children all drive older cars, and Jeff is our trusted mechanic. He goes above and beyond by doing only whats necessary, at a reasonable price. And, hes been known on a few occasions to actually fit us in on a super busy day. We highly recommend Hopkins Automotive! Thanks Jeff!
Jeff has been absolutely amazing to myself and the rest of my family. He only suggests what needs done and for those of us whos money is tight, this is very helpful. Jeff is very transparent and now that I live over 5 hours away and get the run around from virtually every mechanic I have encountered, I wait until I come back to Indy just to have Jeff look at my car.
I have to say hands down the best shop ive ever gone too. Jeff is the coolest down to earth guy. He is fare and honest and fast. He has gone above and beyond for me as a customer. I will be returning for all future repairs and recommend to all my ppl.
My first experience with Hopkins was a few months ago. I called them because I generally dislike going to dealerships. I needed a simple oil change. My car is a tiny 2013 ford...he wanted to charge me 70 dollars...thats nuts. I dont know much about cars, but I feel that when things go wrong I generally have a good idea of what could be wrong. Today I had an emergency, the belt on my car had split out of no where, and again me disliking typical dealership shops regularly I decided to call Hopkins. After expressing my worry about my car and asking if they had any spaces today I was answered with a no and silence. I was not offered alternatives times or any kind of typical human interaction from a decent business. I would say third times a charm but Im thinking not. Thanks for NOTHING Hopkins.
Desk clerk person (could be owner was very rude to me) and asked why he was being so rude to me refuses my business. He is very disrespectful towards me and I won’t be going back after this
Hopkins has gone above and beyond for me multiple times. They are honest, reliable, and super helpful! Im not taking my care anywhere else, I trust them!
I received a fair price on two separate issues with my car. They were also very quick with the repair. Ill be back whenever I need service again!
First class operation - Jeff and staff take care of our fleet of cars and we appreciate them .
Ive been going to Hopkins for about ten years now. I have nothing but 100% positive things to say about Jeff and the rest of his team. When I had high-mileage vehicles, he always suggested repairs that were consistent with what he felt was warranted, given the value of the vehicle. When we had our children and I wanted to make sure my wifes van was as safe as it could be, they made sure it was running perfectly. Just today, he saved me a pile of money by working to replace a connector when the dealer would have only been able to replace the entire wiring harness. I see the few negative reviews on here and I understand that people can have a negative experience anywhere, and its natural to vent frustration through a negative review. However, Jeff and his team have been nothing but honest, reliable, flexible, helpful, and positive throughout every single one of my experiences with them over the past decade. Theyve earned my trust and I send anyone who asks me for a shop recommendation their direction.
Honest place & excellent service! I brought my Trailblazer in at 100k miles for service. I had a long list of things that I thought I wanted done. When I called the Chevy dealer, they were more than happy to perform ALL of those services. However, when I talked to Jeff, he went through my list and sorted out the things that needed to be done, then things that didnt need to be done at all, and the things that should be put off to 150k. Basically, he cut the list in half and the dealer was going to just do the whole list and charge me a LOT. At 120k, my truck is running great and Jeff saved me a ton of money. Ill always take my vehicle(s) there for service.1/19/18 Update: Truck is now over 165k, and Hopkins is still the only place I go even though its a bit out of the way for me.
Great, honest service. Very considerate staff, willing to work with your schedule as best as they can.
Its simply said, The Best
Always does an excellent job and so honest you could play poker with him over the phone!
Great business with prompt and friendly service. I will certainly use Hopkins Auto in the future and have already recommended others do the same.
They always do great work
The staff is always helpful and work very quickly and professionally.
Reliable, trustworthy, and reasonably priced. Jeff is awesome!
I have been using Jeff for a couple of years and we trust him. weve always been happy with his work.
Love, Love, Love these guys! I have had them work on several older cars and 15 passenger vans.
Great! Honest! Been taking my wifes and mine vehicle there for years.
Great place to get your car service
Best auto repair shop in Indy
My company had been bringing our company trucks to Hopkins for repair for quite a few years. We exclusively used Hopkins unless the turnaround for repair was too long and we had to get an emergency repair elsewhere. I took over responsibility for a portion of our fleet a few years ago, and the first time I brought in a truck, Jeff was rude and dismissive. He actually acted annoyed that I was bringing him business, then acted more annoyed that I would ask for an estimate on how long the repair would take. Not once did I say, That wont do, Im taking my business elsewhere. It was never an emergency, I just have to plan and coordinate around the absence of the truck, like anybody would have to, be it a personal or company vehicle. And yet, even though I never reacted to his rudeness with more rudeness or impatience, every time I brought in a truck for repair, I got the same attitude. I dont know what makes a person run their shop this way, but we have taken our business elsewhere because of it.
A+
Jeff has been our familys mechanic for decades. I wouldnt go anywhere else.
Honest and reliable.
Won’t take our cars anywhere else.
Was reasonable and fixed what it was in for
Wow, i called in for a service quote and the guy was super rude for nothing
Exceptional service
Great service!!!!
