Auto Select Appleton North

"Worst mechanics I took my car! I took my Prius for an inspection because it was giving a noise on the right side and when I turned all direction to the right side and I reverse the direction locks, they indicated me several parts to be replaced so that the problems were solved, I spent more than 2,200 dollars and the problems STILL CONTINUE, they claimed to have more parts with problems, so why didn’t they leave me on the first visit? Mechanic garbage, they only find a reason to move where they shouldn’t!"

"This is one of the best shops in Appleton. My car was stolen and damage, but they worked quickly to get it fixed for me. I had the fastest and friendliest auto experience here."

"Tony and his team are amazing! We have been bringing our vehicles to Auto Select for years. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy and get us back on the road in a timely manner without putting too much of a dent in our checkbook!"

"My experience at this auto shop was nothing short of frustrating and disappointing. My primary concern was the high-temperature warning light constantly coming on, indicating engine overheating issues with my 2011 Subaru Legacy, which had 119,000 miles on it. Initially, I contacted them to inquire if they could address a potential head gasket problem, explaining that my vehicle was experiencing overheating problems. They assured me that they could handle it, so I brought my car in. During this first visit, they strongly recommended a water pump replacement and convinced me to go for a timing kit as well, resulting in a payment of around $900. However, my frustration escalated when, less than 100 miles after leaving their shop, my car once again started overheating. I contacted the auto shop, and they agreed to take another look at it, leading to my second visit. This time, they claimed my vehicle needed a new radiator and thermostat. I asked if they could simply test the head gasket before proceeding with any additional work. Their response was that they needed to fix the radiator and thermostat first to test the head gasket properly. I also questioned why they hadn't identified the radiator issues during the initial visit, to which their response was an unsatisfying, "things break down." This was baffling to me because I had recently had a new thermostat and radiator installed by another shop just 500 miles prior, and I had not noticed any signs of leakage or unusual odors. While I was on the phone with them, they claimed they were testing the head gasket and informed me that it was indeed the source of the problem. I immediately inquired about getting it fixed, to which they started giving me a convoluted explanation of why they hadn't recommended addressing the head gasket earlier. Instead, they proposed searching for a used engine at a junkyard and installing it but couldn't guarantee its condition beforehand. To make matters worse, they stated that if the used engine failed, I would be responsible for the labor costs to install another engine. This revelation left me utterly baffled and frustrated, as it became evident that their competence was seriously in question. Seeking a resolution, I asked to speak with the owner about my concerns, especially considering the fact that I was looking at an overall cost of $1,800 and still faced the exact same issue I had before bringing my car in. Shockingly, the owner's proposed solution was to credit me the cost of the second visit (approximately $900) if I simply handed over the title of my car for trade-in. This left me utterly flabbergasted. In hindsight, I've come to realize that there are several standard methods any competent mechanic could have used to easily diagnose a blown head gasket. My experience at this auto shop was marked by incompetence, mismanagement, and a shocking lack of accountability."
