“ These guys are simply the best in the Midwest. Probably even farther, but I do not go that far to get my car repaired. Now having said that, Ron and the gang are as honest as it is going to get. Sometimes a little too honest. But at least you know the truth. I have brought three different vehicles to Ron in the last 18 months. In all 3 cases, he fixed the cars as quick as possible, and was highly fair in cost. Interestingly, the first one, a Ford Explorer, was deemed unrepairable by both the Ford dealer mechanic and another repair shop. So we found Last Chance since it was literally our Last Chance. That, and the fact we passed it everyday on the way home. You know what they say- Location, Location, Location! Well, we brought it into Ron, and after a very long conversation about life, love, and the pursuit of happiness, Ron got his guys to work and they pinpointed the problem and fixed it in one day's time. It was seriously impressive, and surprisingly cheap (Ron- if you read this do not raise prices). Best of all, it was fixed. Well then there was the BMW. That was a nightmare scenario that Ron and his guys were able to fix up for us and get it back on the road again. Word to the wise- avoid at all costs any BMW dealers located in Naperville. Whatever you do, no matter if your name is Bill, or your name is Jacob, avoid it. Well we just got to visit Spa Ron for a third time with the Escape. Problem diagnosed, repaired, and returned in less than 1 day. He always makes time, not only for us, but for every customer. I cannot figure out how they do it, but I do see the garage opened after 7PM on the way home from baseball practice with my son a lot. So maybe they throw time at it. Whatever it is, they do a fantastic job at fixing problems and getting customers moving again. Thanks Ron and team for all that you have done, and all that you have yet to do for our family's cars. One last note: You MUST take the time to meet with Sherry. Or is it Sheri. Or is it Sherri. Or perhaps it French, Cherie. Like Mon Cherie. Whatever- she is too cool for school. Without Sheri, or Sherry, or etc... Last Chance might be Lost Chance. Just kidding! She is the beautiful face of the franchise, and her pleasant and friendly smile greets you when you stop in. Be sure to chat with her- she is a rib tickler.”

Heat Not Working

Auto Repair In Plainfield

★★★★★

“ The heat in our 2006 Nissan Pathfinder was not working and it needed the u-joints replaced, so we brought it to Last Chance Auto Repair on the recommendation of a friend. Let's face it, no matter kind of high praise I may hear about a mechanic, I will always approach my first visit with a sense of dread and skepticism. I don't know THAT much about cars and I'm not made of money, so it is going to take quite a bit to gain my trust. This being said, I am pleased to report that my LCAR experience was every bit as good as my friend said it would be! What really stood out was the superior customer service. Sherri was pleasant and efficient in taking down my information and concerns about the car, and made sure I knew up front what their labor rate was (they even have a sign hung up stating this information). I hadn't previously experienced this kind of transparency with an auto repair shop, and it was much appreciated. She told me they would get back to me promptly with a diagnosis, and not start working on the vehicle without my consent. A few hours later I received a call from Ron and he confirmed what I already knew about the need for a u-joint replacement. With regards to the heater, he told me that the problem could be remedied by removing the core and soaking it in radiator flush. This was a pleasant surprise as the dealer had said the heater core would need to be replaced. Ron stated that the soaking procedure was not something most places would do and I believe him. When it came time to pick up and pay the next evening I dealt with Corry, Ron's son, as everyone else left early to attend some continuing education classes. Corry continued the top notch customer service in taking the time to educate me on exactly how my final billing amount was determined. He expressed a genuine concern in making sure I felt the price was fair and my overall experience satisfactory, which it was! I am very happy to have found a reliable mechanic, and will certainly be returning for next maintenance or repair job.”

Great Experience

Auto Repair In Plainfield

“ I had a great experience with Last Chance Auto Repair. I have never needed a real auto shop until now. Up until now, my dad was my mechanic, since I drove newer cars that didn't need more than regular maintenance. I didn't even know the first thing about calling a tow truck. Who do I call? Where do they take my car? My husband's car wouldn't start on a Tuesday morning. After replacing the battery, the car still would not start. On Wednesday morning, I called Last Chance, who has their own towing service. By Wednesday afternoon, tow truck driver Zach had picked up the car. By Thursday afternoon, I spoke with Sheri who quoted me exactly what the problem was and the price. She followed up with a second phone call to tell me that, in order to replace the starter, they had to remove and replace something to get to the starter. The heads up was much appreciated; I like that I can trust this place to contact me before ringing up a bill in my name. I didn't hear from anyone all day Friday, so I called on Saturday afternoon to investigate. I spoke with Ron, whom I spoke to during several other phone calls, but I could tell by his tone that he was definitely distracted and busy. There's a reason he works with cars and not people. Don't let his dry humor or shortness deter you from getting your car fixed here. The car was ready to pick up on Saturday, so we drove over. The garage is tiny, and it seems that there aren't a ton of employees, so if you're ringing their phone off the hook, there probably isn't anyone there manning the phone. It was a little frustrating at times talking to Ron, he always sounded surprised ("we have a Honda Accord here?"), but during most phone calls he was quite pleasant. Zach and Sheri were also very courteous and polite on the phone. When all was said and done, replacing the starter (including some gaskets and something else), plus the cost of the tow truck, minus the 10% off Yelp check-in deal, we spent around $450 - basically a car payment, which is by far better than being strapped with monthly payments.”

What is a catalytic converter all about and why do people steal them on a regular basis?

A catalytic converter is an essential component in a vehicle's exhaust system. It is responsible for reducing the emission of harmful pollutants, such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides, from the vehicle's exhaust. The catalytic converter is made up of a ceramic honeycomb core coated with precious metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium. These metals act as catalysts and help convert the harmful gases into less harmful ones before they exit the vehicle.

Catalytic converters are in high demand because they contain valuable precious metals that can be recycled for a substantial amount of money. Thieves typically target cars that are easy to access, such as SUVs and trucks, as these vehicles have larger catalytic converters. They can remove the catalytic converter in a matter of minutes using a saw or a wrench, and then sell it to a scrap yard or recycling center for a quick profit.

The cost of a new catalytic converter ranges from $500 to $2,500, but the value of the precious metals inside can be up to $400. The price of these metals varies, but as of 2021, platinum is worth around $1,100 per ounce, palladium around $2,400 per ounce, and rhodium around $27,000 per ounce.

The increase in theft of catalytic converters has become a significant problem for car owners, and the cost of replacing a stolen converter can be a financial burden. Some car owners have resorted to installing protective shields, security cameras, and alarms to deter thieves from stealing their catalytic converters.

The moral of the story: a catalytic converter is a vital part of a vehicle's exhaust system, and its theft has become a growing concern for car owners. Thieves steal them because they contain valuable precious metals that can be sold for a quick profit. Car owners should take precautions to protect their vehicles from theft and consider installing protective measures to prevent the theft of their catalytic converters.

Are the low cost oil change places a scam?

No, not by any means TYPICALLY. Shops need to make money, period. Nothing in life is free, in MOST cases. There is a lot of different types, brands, quality of oils & filters on the market today. The lower the price the lower the quality? Not necessarily true but in some cases without a doubt.

My family and I have a repair shop in Plainfield IL, Last Chance Auto Repair www.lastchanceautorepairs.com and we know all about oil changes. We offer conventional, semi & full synthetic oil changes. Our shop along with most shops that offer oil change services have many different brands of oils & filters available which in the long run can all vary in price. There is always oil change coupons (specials, check in’s, deals) coming through the door aka “the low cost oil change”. Lower cost, yes they do include a lower cost and in most cases lower cost doesn’t include the best of the best oil and filter but always quality (at most shops) nonetheless and a free 30 point inspection, well at least at our shop. When it comes to coupons there is always the fine print which is meant to protect the repair shop and to also inform the customer of the little things not included, the other fee’s and or the additional items that may very well be needed in the long run.

The point is in most cases the low cost isn’t a scam by any means but a marketing technique to get people in the door. In most cases the shops don’t make much on oil changes especially if there is a coupon. They may make a dollar and or may even break even or lose money after paying for the oil, filter, mechanic, etc. These oil changes will usually include a free inspection which is the potential money maker for the shop. Hence the up selling, add on, additional sale, did you know you are due for this, according to your maintenance schedule you are in need of, oh by the way this is about to fall off, etc.

So when is comes to scams, there is a lot of scams out there, everyone wants more money. Some places are better at getting more money than others. It’s always good to ask questions and do your do diligence to make sure your not the victim of a scam. The big ways some shops get over on people aka scammy-ish tactics may include: cheap oil & filters, that I would say is at the top of the list, fine print with additional charges that you may not have read and or understand, disposal fee’s, saying and pushing things that aren’t really needed and in some cases just doing some services without permission,

Anything in life can turn into a scam. It is a consumers responsibility to make sure not to turn into a victim. Before you do anything that involves money it’s always best practice to do some homework, research, due diligence, to help re-ensure a smooth, painless, process that doesn’t involve any hiccups. Some things you can do to prevent scamming include: ask for referrals, check out some online reviews, give the place a call and feel them out by asking questions, etc. Money is the root of all evil, don’t let the evilness get the better of you.
