Consumer Comments for South Import Motors

Consumer from Burnsville, MN
Jun 05, 2024

South Import Motors is the finest auto repair shop we've ever used in the TC or elsewhere. The staff is responsive and knowledgeable and the techs are amazing. They kept my 16 year old VW going all the way to the end. Not only are they knowledgeable, they are incredibly honest. When they discover an issue or make a diagnosis, they always tell you what is wrong and how long you can live with it or even whether it doesn't need to be fixed. I can't say enough good things about South Import. We've been using their services since for 25 years.

All work is well done and done promptly. They offer complete explanations, not only of the service they recommend, but of services they feel are not needed. Very friendly staff.
