Des Moines & Ankeny Auto Repair

Honest Wrenches does a detailed inspection Everytime your car goes in for service. They take pictures of everything they check and point out what has an issue and why, and a video is included to explain it, which is sent to you via a text message that you can refer back to. They will bend over backwards to work with your schedule, including providing free loaner cars while your vehicle is being worked on as well as picking you up and dropping you off. Glad I followed up on a coupon sent in the mail because it is a night and day experience working with them and any other repair shop I have been to.

They are professional, efficient and friendly. I have been taking my vehicles here and I have no complaints at all. They are always honest about what my vehicles need. It's better than the dealerships.

The staff and mechanics were very helpful and explained what was needed, things that could wait and just overall the condition of my vehicle. They even told me I don't need breakpads. The last place I took it told me I needed my breaks all done. Thanks for a good experience and for the dunkin doughnut. It was delicious.

My experience was amazing they went above and beyond to help me and even picked up my car from my job and dropped it back off as a courtesy which was so convienient and they have very affordable pricing I will forever bring my car back to them because they really care and are all about the customer

Absolutely amazing mechanics!! We had taken our car to 3 different locations for a recurring issue, where the car would not start. The dealer told us it was a wiring issue, and would be over $4,000 to fix. The second said it was a battery problem, and the 3rd would not even look at it. Honest wrenches took the time to do a thorough inspection, and found out it was our starter. They worked with our warranty company, and got it covered. When it was done, the owner picked me up at my house to come get it. They even followed up a week later, just to make sure everything was good. I can not recommend this place enough.

Free loaner vehicle and that aren’t trying to make you spend more money than you have to. JD is the best!!!

Josh is a good kid, had to educate a little but a good kid. I like that they dont push everything to be done right away. I watched him interact with other customers, i was very pleased with how they treat there customers. It was like the customer was a family member and was looking out for them and there best interest.

I brought my car to Honest Wrenches after I hit some road debris and the underbelly shield on my car was damaged. It was a fairly minor issue, but the guys took my concerns seriously and I could tell they truly wanted to help get my car back to normal. That particular part for my vehicle was rather expensive; instead of pushing an expensive part, they suggested that they repair the shield instead of replacing it. I had a few concerns about that process, but they answered all of my questions and when I got the car back I couldn't even tell that the part was ever damaged. I was really impressed and relieved. They have great service and I was surprised and grateful to receive a loaner vehicle. The diagnostic includes pictures and recommendations which are super helpful. Josh was my service adviser and is a great communicator. I appreciated his knowledge and advice for my car and maintenance. Everyone else I talked to there along the way was awesome and enthusiastic. I'm really glad I found somewhere I can trust to take my vehicle. Thanks guys!

best service I have ever received! this will become my place to take my cars from now on.
