I love bringing my vehicle here. I am always informed of the problem and what my options are to deal with it. I also love that they do an inspection of other needs my vehicle has and discuss the urgency of fixing those needs so I can budget for them. The work is always done in a timely manner and the office staff is really nice!

Revive Auto was awesome to work with. Andy was more than willing to answer all of my questions regarding installing a leveling kit on my 2017 Chevy Tahoe and went above and beyond to ensure I had peace of mind.

I am so pleased with the work that Andy did on my motorhome. It has never performed better and better gas mileage also! His customer service was excellent. I am very pleased. Thankyou Andy and Revive auto!

I highly recommend Revive Auto Care. I had taken my vehicle to McGrath for an oil change and a warranty item. They did not secure bolts correctly under my vehicle which left a piece loose and hanging off. Revive was very nice on the phone and got me in right away. They even showed me what had happened. Needless to say, this is now the company that I will be taking my vehicle to for maintenance and repairs when needed.

(For context, I brought my car in for an inspection after buying it from a private seller.) I don’t think I have enough good things to say- they were able to get my car looked at in a timely manner and gave me a really detailed inspection with pictures of what’s wrong, what needs to be fixed immediately and what can wait. They had a loaner car available the day I brought mine in, which took so much stress out of the process. They were super friendly and helpful, and it was easy to get in touch when I had questions or concerns. I’ll definitely be bringing my car back to them!

Revive auto care services my 2018 Audi s4 and they do a wonderful job. They are the only ones who have touched it since it was new other than the dealer.

A transmission fluid leak while maneuvering into an Iowa City tailgate spot is highly over-rated, but it beats the highway. Tow was a challenge, but I knew I needed to be close to home at a shop I know and trust. That's Big Jim’s. Andy and his team had my truck back on the road by Thursday after replacing the transmission fluid lines and - most importantly - confirming a transmission replacement was unnecessary. Big Jim’s motto should be you get what you pay for. If you want the cheapest or fastest solution, look elsewhere. If you want thorough, competent and ethical service, Andy is the man.

Sara and Andy at Revive are great. I trust Revive Auto Care for all my major car/truck repairs. Engine, timing, transmission, A/C, exhaust...they can do it all.

Took my car there to have the air conditioner checked out I had a leak. They told me where the leak was. I replaced the hose two days later the compressor locked up. I stopped by there to ask if they could come out and take a listen to it. The lady said they were busy and she didn’t have nobody. I’ll never take anything there again $900 to change the air conditioner line that was The line was only $176 your labor rate must be $350 an hour

Took RV to Revive/Iowa Off Road to have kit from Weldtec Design installed. They were awesome to work with and would have no hesitation on going back.

Andy fixed a truck for me last me before a trip across the country. As a previous satisfied customer of his I had no worries it would be fixed right the first time. Great service! Great prices! 5 stars

I will honestly not take my car to another shop. Andy and his team have helped me out, time and time again. They are up front about the cost, honest about what is necessary to be done now, what can wait, and what the cost will be. There's no judgment on making choices that may not have been helpful with your car, just education provided to make better ones. If you want a solid mechanic and a good experience, go see them at Revive Auto Care!

two other shops misdiagnosed my problem and both told me they could not work on my car because it was a hybrid... Revive not only solved my problem but when others told me the only way to fix my inner tie rod ends play was to replace my entire rack and pinion because the tie rod ends could not be bought separately. Revive found a way to get just the tie rod ends and the repair was half as much as if I replaced the entire rack.... They also replaced 4 burned out marker bulbs at no cost and kept me informed the entire time they had my car...... A++++++++
