Des Moines & Ankeny Auto Repair

I had a running issue with my Cruz. After having it a another shop I took it to Honest Wrenches. While the car was getting worked on I was given a loaner car. They were able to get the problem figured out, and the car runs great! Thanks again

You can always count on them to get the job done right.

I was stranded with two dogs and a cat and the Honest Wrenches were not only amazing mechanics but caring and empathetic people who turned this nightmare into a learning experience. I would recommend this company with confidence and without reservations

I was tired of being taken advantage of by shops advising me to replace many more components than were really necessary so I did my research and thought I'd give these guys a try. I have been an auto mechanic for years back before everything was computerized so I know something about how cars work and what's required to fix them. Josh was straight up front with me about what needed to be fixed right away and what could wait. Got my mustang running smooth and quiet again for more than reasonable money. Their shuttle service was excellent and dropped me off and picked me up on time in a comfortable vehicle. Very nice people all around. I would recommend them to anyone.

Amazing Experience! I missed my small town mechanic with old school customer service and personal care. Than I found these folks they treated me like I was part of the family. There process of inspecting my vehicle from bumper to bumper taking pictures of every inspected part with its condition was unbelievable. They also take liquid samples of all fluids and analyze it's condition, than they send you a full report in a email pictures and all explaining what maintenance needs to be done. I had my engine cleaned, flushed and conditioned due to carbon build up, Transmission cleaned,flushed and conditioned and fuel system cleaned. Found my oil leak and fixed it. This process took 1.5 days they gave me a loaner vehicle at no charge. They take ownership in there work on your vehicle and treat your vehicle as it was there own. I got tired of the dealerships shop having to wait three weeks for an appointment no personal care and over priced parts/labor. With Honest Wrenches I made an appointment online 2 days out recieved conformation right away unbelievable experience. I will be getting all my service done at Honest Wrenches from now on. Do yourself a favor and just try these folks you won't be disappointed

I made a post on fb looking for a shop that was good with electrical for gm/ Cadillac and was told to try this place out. Josh is a stand up guy with no b.s gimmicks. I'm mechanically inclined but with no time to find bad wiring I had this vehicle towed in. I gave Josh the rundown on my findings and thoughts, and they had it running the next day with the issue narrowed down. For a average everyday person it is difficult and stressful trying to find a reputable shop with fair prices. I would refer someone here with out a doubt that you would be taken care of.

Great service! They explain things well! Done quickly!

I'm very impressed. We brought my fiancé's vehicle in when the transmission failed, and everyone was very straightforward. Photos of everything, explained everything to us politely and thoroughly, and didn't pressure us into any particular decision. I came in later for routine maintenance and an inspection. I worked primarily with JD and Josh, and they always treated me with respect. Every other shop I've ever patroned has treated me with condescension or as if I couldn't understand; these folks always speak to me like an equal, and I feel respected. The pricing is usually pretty standard; some things cost a little more than average, but they use excellent parts and have excellent staff. You actually get what you pay for with this shop. At the end of the day, I actually look forward to seeing these folks, even when I am frustrated about car issues.

I called to make an appointment for service to my ventilation system on my car and they were able to get me in the next day right away. By early afternoon they had my problem diagnosed and parts on the way and I got my car back the next day. Josh and his staff were knowledgeable and friendly throughout the whole process. I also enjoyed the digital service review. If I need work done in the future I will be bringing my car back in and recommending to friends and family you do the same.
