Really great place to get your car fixed at a reasonable price. Great guy, very helpful, honest and excellent service quality. Would recommend everyone to check the place out.
The car repair expert that is honest, upfront with diagnosis (good or bad), My 2005 Ford Freestar van was a great vehicle for the 5 years that owned it, Chris was referred by my neighbor who spoke very highly as to his abilities to make required repairs especially when more than one was needed. Thanks to Chris Thayer, I enjoyed my van right up till it's final days of Michigan weather torment. ... I'll be sure to mention him when asked "do you know a good auto repairman near Walled Lake, Mi.?"
It took a little time to get my vehicle in for service but there was good reason. Based on the excellent service, great communication and fair pricing offered by Chris and his staff, they must be in big demand. I've been looking for a primary auto service location since moving to MI a few years ago. Finally, I believe I've found it. Auto repair is a skill, for sure, and should come with a price. However, Thayer's appears to believe that there is a fair price for what they do, enough to earn profit to stay in existence and grow, and to bring a reliable service to the customer who should come back again and again, when need arises. For any business, that repeat customer is far better than throwing money at advertising with coupons to attract someone else in the door. I will repeat at Thayer's and word from my mouth is already being spread. Thank you, Chris.
Had my Veloster Turbo with Chris after it went into limp mode on the freeway. Every diagnostic step he started with the cheapest thing first rather than jumping into the most expensive. He kept in contact while I waited for parts from Korea, and did everything possibly in the meantime to get it running smooth again. Very reasonable pricing, very good experience overall.
This place is my go to whenever my car needs fixing! Usually my car breaks down at the worst possible timing. Whenever this happens, I call Chris (he's even in my contacts as Chris auto guy!) I have family in Ohio and whenever I have plans to travel down there, my car would break down on a Thursday and I would have to head down on Friday night. Chris has always fitted my car into his busy schedule due to my desperation. He's always fast, efficient, and never tried to overcharge or fix things that aren't broken. In fact after getting my oil changed somewhere else and having the oil change place scare me on repairs, I took it to Chris to see if these repairs were really necessary and needed. He looked at my car and said no. He's a family man, so he treats me like a part of the family. He's passionate about his work since he's had so many years in the automotive industry, as well as rebuilding classic cars. My boyfriend went in to the front of his shop where Chris has his work displayed like a classic car museum. He's also honest which is a rare find! I had a car that got totalled in a rear end hit and run, my airbags deployed and he told me that it was totalled because of the airbags and that some might put the deployed bags back in the car for a fee however he wouldn't do it because it isn't safe or legal. He's my go to whenever I get into a jam.
10/10 would recommend. The guy is nice, honest, and seems to care about his clients. Work was done quickly as well. Really helped me out in a pinch.
I took my truck in for a steering problem and he not only fixed it for a reasonable price but also did a quality inspection for free. I will definitely go back to him for any other repair. Very happy with Chris and his expertise.
This is a fantastic auto service ship, they were a big help in figuring out why my cadillac was shaking so bad at high speeds. He helped me out at a great cost and only took a day to figure out my issue. He will be seeing me again and be seeing family/ friends. (Plus he did extra work just because he thought it should be done, much appreciated!)
