I was driving from Arizona to Vermont, and my truck died on the highway. I was towed to Master Auto Repair and they were so quick, nice, clean, and helpful! I had a bad fuel pump/filter, and was back on the road the next day. Go to this shop!!!

My transmission blew out more than 6 hours away from home. By luck of the draw, AAA towed my car here. The assistant manager, Ryan, was very helpful in laying out all of my repair options and lending advice

5-star review by Kyle Kuhlman

Fast and reliable service. Staff was extremely professional and the owners are just downright great people. They accommodated us after a blow out tire in Missouri. They where able to work on the car immediately allowing the remainder of our day to be spent elsewhere.

5-star review by Mike Radosevich

They got me in right away. Diagnosed my problems that other merchanics missed and my car hasn't run this good in years. Will be coming back in the future. Reasonably priced for the amount of work they did as well. Thank you Master Auto Repair.

5-star review by Mike Hallbauer

They did my wife's alignment and rotate upon my request. Drives 1000 times better. If there ever is a job I'm not capable of doing myself ill always take it to Master Auto Repair off Vandali in Collinsville. Thanks guys!
