Would like to thank Bob for a great job his mechanics did on my 13 year old pick up truck. I knew it would need lots of work. New brakes , shocks, transmission flush, extra front end work, and new ABS sensor. Could not believe it was the same truck. It handled like a new vehicle. Well worth the cost of taking it there. Maybe I'll keep it for another 10 years. Thanks again Bob !!!!!!

After hearing from a Toyota Dealer on my 2009 Toyota Carolla that my right front ball joint had gone bad as well as contradicting information from 2 different auto mechanics I spoke with Bob who happily inspected my vehicle to later find out nothing was wrong but that I needed new brakes. The brake job was wonderful and I will definitely be bringing my other vehicles/friends/family to Tanela Auto in the near future. Bob and everyone at Tanela Auto Repair are amazing, honest, and extremely genuine individuals. I could not be more pleased with the customer service and exceptional work on my vehicle. My entire family goes to Tanela and I have recommended him to everyone that I know. I even recieved a call a few days later from Bob himself to see how my vehicle was performing... which is something I have never seen from any other auto repair service. Thanks!

I am a car enthusiast and very serious about maintaining my vehicles. I had been going to the same repair facility for years which unfortunately is no longer available. For a while now I have felt like a Nomad wandering and looking for the right, honest, fair & customer oriented repair facility. I now truly believe I have found that establishment. Late on a Friday I discovered my daughter's car leaking coolant. I had been looking over reviews of repair facilities for quite some time and Tanela Auto & Truck Repair really stood out. I called and spoke with Bob and immediately from the conversation I had the right feeling. My daughter really needed her car. Bob enthusiastically said he would look at the car on Saturday morning and would do his best to have the car done on the same day if he could. Immediately I was treated with complete respect. Bob was not just interested in the car he was also interested in me the customer. Bob informed me of the car's problem and I was so impressed by the way he thoroughly showed me the problem and detailed the costs and options. He never tried to force any extras or pressure me whatsoever. Work was done excellently in a timely manner and on a Saturday. Bob is a stand up guy who takes an interest in his customers. Bob personally called me on Monday morning just to check in and make sure that everything was to my satisfaction! Also received a follow up thank you letter as a first time customer showing his appreciation for my business. Never had a repair facility or any business given such personal attention. Going forward I look forward to years of the same great work and customer service from Bob and his staff. I HIGHLY & ENTHUSIASTICALLY recommend Tanela Auto & Truck Repair! Sam R.

The mechanics at Tanela did an excellent job on repairing my O2 sensor on my Toyota! Diagnosis was way cheaper than Midas! Bob also sent me a few 20$ off gift cards towards any future work as a thank you. He went a step further and personally called a week later just to check in and make sure that everything was running smooth! The attention to details and customer service are top notch here, I will definitely be back.

Another great job by my car guys. Worked on my 2003 Pilot this time. Car is now running great, was delivered as promised, and at a fair price. If you're looking at these reviews, I can tell you that you can't go wrong with Tanela for servicing your car. Thanks, guys.

Was looking for a place by the house and found this place. Great service sent me movie tickets the first time and drove me home since I did not have a ride back. Car runs good no complaints, nice to have a place to go and not worry about it.

No better repair shop around. They always fix whatever problem I have the first time around. I have never had to bring my car back for the same problem. Tanela is extremely honest and will never try and get you to buy parts you don't really need, unlike all the dealerships or Jiffy Lube. The owner, Bob, is straight to the point and extremely honest with you. I trust all the mechanics with my cars and never have to worry when I drop it off.

Bob at Tanela Auto & Truck Repair is great! He clearly explains the repairs required, and can often get it done the same day.

We have had our vehicles maintained by Bob for many years now. No problem has ever stumped him; we always get fast repairs at reasonable cost. Bob works with us to keep our costs low by recommending factory parts when they are essential and other, less expensive brands when he knows the quality is good. He will never try to sell us repairs that won't be needed for several months. Recently Bob repaired the rear brakes on our Lexus but didn't try to sell us a front brake job as well, saying that could be put off a few months. Then, when I happened to mention we were going to take a long car trip, he told me to get he front brakes done before we go. I always feel that Bob cares about me as a customer and is trying to meet my needs. Ted Washburn Barrington Corporate Townhomes

Last week, I got a call from my S.O. that the radiator was blowing steam, and had an 8" crack along the top. Being new to the area I had never found a mechanic, but by a stroke of luck my S.O. and I both found Tanela's online, and called them up independently. I am incredibly happy that I found Tanela's because the service was excellent, their prices are highly competitive, and they are very nice people. My car was out of the shop the next day, with a brand new radiator and a 2 year warranty on the work that was done. Additionally, they were very honest when suggesting future maintinence, and they did their best to make the experience of having a broken down car as painless as possible. They even sent us 2 free movie passes along with a thank you note a week later.
