CR Automotive Repair - Urbana, Illinois

Amazing experience!
Calvin was honest with me from the beginning and was willing to help me learn. Talked to him for a while and his family has been in the business for generations, so it's in his blood.
He doesn't have much, if any employees, so his prices are low!!
Came from another shop with a problem they created and was so grateful that Calvin did not take advantage of me like many other places.
Trustworthy person with a passion for cars!!

Calvin did an amazing job on my Acura TL. I highly recommend his shop, his prices are really fair for the labor. He changed my rear break pads, rotors and calibers for a fair price and service was very good. My car was done at a reasonable time, not long at all. He also tells you up front all costs and etc. He's very honest and I appreciate him for that.

C.R. Automotive Repair is excellent! I called on a Wednesday for my sons car at college with engine light on and coolant leaking. Scheduled me for Saturday! Calvin was beyond exceptional and took the time to tell me what was wrong and what it would cost, and it was a great rate and not over charging me or doing work not needed. Super knowledgeable and friendly. I am so glad I found C.R. Automotive. Car is running great!!! I won’t go anywhere else!! Thank you !!!!

Calvin gave the best advice! I was on the verge of tears due to a strange car issue while on a road trip and Calvin was so knowledgeable, kind, and put my worries at ease. Thank you!

I love my old car, but sometimes you need to give up on a car. Calvin isn't just a mechanic. He is a friend who will guide you on what makes sense for YOUR situation.

One day my beloved car will have a problem that isn't worth fixing, and I can trust Calvin to let me know when its time has come.

I'll never spend hours trying to self diagnose, out of fear of being 'scammed' by a less reputable guy. Going here didn't just fix my car. Calvin has taken dozens of future hours of STRESS out of my life.

If you respect yourself, you need a guy for everything. He should be your car guy. He will always be my car guy.

Calvin is very honest and straightforward. I love his honesty. He was very detailed and make it clear on what my car needed and didn’t over charge me. Won’t go anywhere else again.

I have tried four different mechanics (at least) in this area and have either found them to recommend unnecessary work or overcharge for work. CR Automotive is the first I've encountered that has done neither! Calvin tells it like it is, explains why certain parts are important, and charges a fair price. CR Automotive is easy to communicate with and gets work done within the day. I will be back (but hopefully not soon!)
