Armstead Automotive has proven to be reliable and professional with my needs in Saginaw and I'll continue to make appointments and recommend them to others. They're prompt, fair, and scheduling in advance was seamless. There is not a local dealership for my vehicle brand so finding a place I could trust was important to me.

Called in the morning, was able to get an appointment that same afternoon! One tire had a slow leak, and I also needed an oil change. First time there and it was a very pleasant experience. Knowledgeable, all was carefully explained, and the wait time was not long at all.

I had an inspection done, and with that they sent me a text message with a link that showed the information and pictures on their findings. This also included a quote for service that they recommended. Getting to see photos of what they seen and getting a quote before agreeing to any work was very helpful to me. The employees were good with communicating about how long things would take and keeping me informed on any delays and when my vehicle was ready.

I am very picky when it comes to finding a shop to work on my vehicles. When I first walked in I was greeted by Ben, who advised me on services for my car. I was nervous about the costs of repairs but Ben took the time to guide me thru every aspect of my repair all while making sure to advise me on anything else found while fixing my car. I would definitely recommend Armstead automotive, prices are in line with the norm, yet the quality is way above.

Very friendly and helpful. They were able to squeeze my vehicle in between the appointments and had me fixed and on the road by the end of day.

Armstead Auto is fabulous! I called very last minute - I needed someone to give my old Mini Cooper a once-over asap - and they did a terrific job! The car is running like a top and looks fantastic and they did it very promptly, keeping me informed the whole time. Prices are crazy reasonable too. Great place, highly recommend.

They got me in quickly and completed the work quickly. Friendly customer service as always. Pricing is very reasonable. I've been quite happy with them thus far! I also had them install headlights since the original post; they did a good job for a reasonable price. I'm still happy coming here and just sent my father-in-law here for tires as well!

Very impressed with the exceptional customer service. They even send you a text message with pictures to show you they inspected everything, not just the problem you brought your car in for. Very reasonably priced, which is great for someone who wants quality service but is on a tight budget. They made a great first impression, I think I’ve found a new shop for my friends and family! Highly recommended!!!

What a great business the staff was super nice and welcoming. I saved $00s here on a oil change for my Land Rover compared to the dealership. Very happy with my experience would definitely recommend and will use them exclusively.

Went here due to the air conditioning in my truck wasn't blowing cool air. Ended up being just shy of $1000. Pretty much the same as going to the dealership, but I have cool air for my service dog. Great group of guys who show their professionalism and customer service go above and beyond

Very nice people. Car didn't start after they fixed the part they needed fixed and they worked to figure it out for me and checked in later to make sure everything was still good

Armstead Auto was able to get my car in when most places said they couldn't get me in anywhere from 3 days to a week. I really needed my car, so I appreciated their promptness. Their prices were as expected and reasonable. They kept me informed through out the process. Will be back when I need to have my vehicle serviced.

Brought my truck in thinking it needed a new battery (needed a jump to get it started). But the guys checked it all out and the alternator and said everything was running fine. Cleared the message on my dash and my truck has been working great since! The young man at the counter could have easily sold me a battery but he didn't. If I have any further trouble I'll bring it back to Armstead Automotive.

Price was originally higher than I thought it would be, when I asked, I was told it was because they were using OEM AC Delco parts for the transmission cooler lines, which I was good with that and agreed that I would prefer AC Delco. A call later said they couldn’t get the lines to free from the cooler and a new one would have to be purchased, I again agreed to continue. When work was finished, I noticed the cooler was not an OEM AC Delco cooler that I assumed they were installing due to the previous discussion about the AC Delco lines! Still not happy about this. Comment from them was an AC Delco would have been more money, they said that they would guarantee the cooler for 3 years. Since the transmission cooler and lines were being changed, I asked for a transmission oil change out also. I checked the dipstick and found the oil was not registering on the stick, the manager checked it when I told him and then proceeded to fill it himself. Next I pointed out all the oil and grease marks all over the truck, on the hood, both front fenders, both driver and passenger doors, driver and passenger windows, front grill, front chrome, bumper, headlights, and more under the hood. The manager cleaned most of these spots when I returned to complain. He apologized but no other compensation for unapproved Chinese oil cooler, low oil after an oil swap oil that, had I not checked could have ruined my transmission. I also noticed a dent in one of my doors that had not been there prior, but I cannot prove it happened here. The person who took care of me said he would review video, but never heard anymore from him and would not at this point expect, even if seen on video, that they would take responsibility for this. So, for all this, I got an apology, some grease spots cleaned from my vehicle, and my oil topped off to where it should have been in the first place. Nothing for my gas to return there, no car wash, no ask to change out the oil cooler for an OEM AC Delco, and nothing for my time to return to take care of all this which put my whole day 1- 1.5 hours behind my schedule for the day. Will most likely return to the dealership for future repairs needed where I know OEM parts will be used and the vehicle repairs will be done correctly and cleanly!
