Thank you so much to Ray and his team! They are always so efficient, and polite. New tire? Done. Oil change? Done. Whatever you need, he’s got it. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.

Twice I have been to Ray's place and he was very accommodating each time. I don't know what happened with the other reviewer below because that was not my experience at all. I've worked on my own car before - now I simply don't have the time or tools. Both times I went in thinking it was one thing, and it turned out to be something completely different. The great thing about Ray is that he seems to be excellent at diagnosing these issues. He is friendly without sugar-coating things and his prices are fair. My car is running like silk now. When you put hundreds of miles on the vehicle every week, that's a big deal.

I've been having my car repaired and maintained by Ray and his team at Peak Performance pretty much since they opened. They have helped keep my old Honda running in tip-top shape. From oil changes to brake work, exhaust and muffler repair and tire changes... Their prices are fair, and the work is done in a timely manner. Whatever work might need to be done, Ray lays it out for you clearly and in a straight-forward manner, which I appreciate. I whole-heartedly recommend them to anyone.

I had a good experience here. Had a thief try to get into my car and only succeeded in ruining the driver's side door handle and lock system. Took my vehicle here to have them do the work of disassembling my door, removing the window, and reconnecting the door handle lock system. The total cost for all services was $350, which was more than reasonable. The work done was quality. I will use this shop again should I have a need.

Super disappointed in this place. For being a reputable place that many many recommended, they tried to WAY overcharge me for not only things my car doesn’t even need replaced, but about $4k over what a new a/c compressor would have actually cost. Ended up charging me $200 for a diagnostic check, which is fine, but the last $200 this place will ever get from me and anyone I know. Needless to say, get a different opinion before letting this place have the okay to do anything to your car. Trying to scam a new female customer, wish I could say I’m even slightly surprised.

Good shop. Ray's helped me in rough patches multiple times when my car broke down. Also top tier service to Amanda for giving us a ride back home when my family and I needed one.

Ray was extremely easy to work with. They figured out what was wrong with my car in a short amount of time, and got it fixed in a timely manner. I figured it would be an arm and a leg for the work that I need it done but they were actually very reasonable! Would definitely recommend.

I love this shop. Ray has helped me out a few times now, he's super quick, thorough, and generous. I won't go anywhere else for car maintenance. Couldn't recommend enough!!

Ray and his team are THE best. I just really appreciate a car place that doesn't make women feel stupid, nervous or vulnerable in any way. Ray has always just put me at ease, and does a good honest job at the various repairs and tune-ups he's done for our family vehicles. Great communication. Great prices. Really trust them.

Ray is fantastic. He's kind, honest, and professional. I've seen his shop many times during my morning commute to work and when I began having trouble with my car starting, I looked his shop up and he had such good reviews that I chose to contact him. I emailed him, and he contacted me early Monday morning. This works really well for me as I typically have to be at work by 7:30 AM. He opens very early. I arrived at the shop later in the morning, and it was clean, well kept, and he remembered who I was and what I'd called about. We went out to my car, and I explained that I needed to get my car running again (there was some issue with the battery or electrical panel, and I don't know thing one about cars) because it was dying randomly and my husband had already tried working on it to no avail. I also needed to get my brakes worked on, and get a MO Safety Inspection - which i have no experience with as a prior Kansas resident. He assured me he would give my car a look over everywhere, and check out the electrical panel and battery especially well. He gave me estimates along the way that were incredibly affordable and fair. He personally drove me home so I didn't need to take the bus or wait hours for a ride - about a ten minute drive to my house. He stayed in touch with me that day, and I left my car overnight. He told me what I would need to have done to the car in the future, but did not push me to do it, he just informed me that it would be smart to have it done after this visit. He fixed my car, worked on my brakes, and did my MO safety inspection. The next day he offered to pick me up from my place of work - again, about 10 minutes from the shop, at rush hour - and brought me back to the shop so I could take my car home. There were no negatives to the experience whatsoever, and I say this with truth. Most of the time when I need to get my car worked on, there's a moment where I think "Oh no...I don't know what this person is talking about, but it's expensive and sounds important, I better do it." Not this time. He did tell me what I needed to have done, but he did what I could manage at the time and he did it for far less than I've been quoted before. He did it quickly and explained things well (like I said, I know not a thing about cars.) He was in contact with me the whole time my car was in the shop, anytime I had a question. He was extremely pleasant, professional, and friendly. I am so impressed after having poor experiences at many other auto shops and dealers. The experience was exactly what I was looking for. No fuss, he had it under control, and he was honest and extremely affordable. I couldn't be more pleased and I will be bringing my car back to him anytime it needs service. If I could give him five stars, I would.

My experience here couldn’t have been any better. I came in to get a tire leak fixed and my right headlight replaced. They were extremely accommodating and were able to get me in and out within 45 minutes. They do fast and reliable work. I also had the pleasure of chatting with Ray for a bit. He’s a genuine person and I really enjoyed talking to him.

Ray really took care of me today at Peak Performance. Took my van in to get a Missouri inspection cringing at what the cost would be for some of the other repairs I was looking for a quote on. Ray worked out a wonderful deal for me to help me not only afford the costs, but explained everything for me in a way I could understand as a non car person. When he noticed my cylinder was misfiring he offered to run diagnostics. Instead of trying to just take my money and fix it, Ray went out of his way to call a Chrysler dealership to check if my issue was still covered under warranty. Sure enough it was and he gave me their contact information and sent me on my way. A real honest business man right here who takes care of his customers and looks out for them. I cannot thank Ray enough for doing what he did and going out of his way to help me out, a complete stranger, just because I am a customer. What a wonderful business owner. I will continue to use Ray and his services for all of my car repair needs! I highly recommend him!

I've been going to Ray at Peak Performance for close to 15 years. He has done work on three different cars I've owned and has always been great to deal with. For a small shop, he gets work done pretty quickly, the work is done well and the prices are fair. He is generally significantly cheaper than a dealer and equal or better than other small independent shops. If he finds multiple things that need work, he can help you prioritize repairs if you don't want to do them all at once. In my experience, he has always been helpful and gone the extra mile to make me a satisfied customer. Hard to find a reputable and honest businessman in the auto repair business and when you find a good one like Ray, you want to stay with him!

Ray and Melissa were nice from the start. This was my second time going to this shop and I am very pleased with the work done on my wifes Ford Focus. They put the alternator in quickly and informed me in detail about my car and what needed to be done. Ray was honest with me about price from the start and he didnt break our bank. For sure we will be returning!

Kind of surprised that the reviews aren't higher here. I've always had great experiences... never felt like I was getting fleeced or sold things I didn't need, always felt like work was done correctly, and have always been impressed with the customer service. Ray, the owner is understanding about costs and has never tried to sell me something I don't need, and he is very clear about what things he think can wait for a while but telling you to keep an eye on them. Seems like a very nice guy. Been going here for years, and have never once felt like I needed to get a second opinion, or like work wasn't done correctly.

Ray never rips you off. He's very honest and gets that car repairs suck. I bought a 2005 Avalon and to get my pass Missouri inspection to Telle and a dealer wanted to charge me $3000. He passed me for less than $1000. He also rotated my tires and did an alignment for free. Just a super place.

I’ve been bringing my 20-year-old Toyota to Ray at Peak Performance Auto Repair for the past 15 years, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. Ray is always quick to get back to me, takes the time to explain anything he finds, and gives honest, straightforward advice about what my car really needs. More than once I thought I was facing a major repair, only to have Ray call and let me know it was actually a much smaller issue, something that shows just how much integrity he brings to his work. I completely trust him when he talks with me about my car. The service is always fast, high-quality, and reliable. I truly appreciate Ray and his team!
