Top notch! We have had several different vehicles serviced with Smith's. They do a fantastic inspection and report. Never had an issue with any repairs. Super quick and friendly. Highly recommended!

Before I found Smiths Automotive, I googled “Prius specialist in Des Moines,” and their business popped up. They already had good reviews 4.4 stars so I felt comfortable to ask them for help. The lady on the phone was knowledgeable and friendly. I dropped off my car the night before, and it was promptly taken into their garage early the next morning. Their communication was on point. Their techs like Zack are knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. They diagnosed my car and gave me their best recommendations. I did not feel pressured. I definitely plan to do business with them in the future.

They got me in quickly on an emergent issue and did what they do best-excellent work. Since I had an oil change scheduled for the following week, they just took care of it, all while short staffed. These folks are the best.

We want to thank your tech for working to get our van fixed by the end of the day Wednesday. Have a good new year.

Excellent service, and very professional work. Some of the repairs are very competitively priced, but some are a little bit more expensive. Fortunately there is a pretty good warranty, and the somewhat higher prices are offset by some of the “free” perks (like a loaner vehicle without extra charge).
Thank you so much for the excellent review of our service and work. We really appreciate you taking the time to provide this thoughtful feedback. You make a fair point about our pricing - we strive to be competitive, but sometimes specialized repairs require a higher investment. However, we're glad to hear that our comprehensive warranty and complimentary perks like loaner vehicles help offset those costs for our customers. Providing outstanding value is just as important to us as top-notch service and workmanship. Feedback like yours helps us continually evaluate our pricing and offerings to ensure we're delivering the best possible experience for our customers. Thank you again for the review. We're grateful for customers like you, and we look forward to continuing to serve your 2016 Chevrolet Equinox and all other automotive needs. Please let us know if there's anything else we can do for you.
Awesome service. They take the time to expain everything. Great follow-up. Very knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Delivering high levels of knowledge, communication, and care for our customers is a top priority, so feedback like yours lets us know we're succeeding. Thank you again for the kind words and high recommendation. We're grateful to have customers like you, and we look forward to continuing to provide you with excellent service in the future. Please don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything else we can do for you.
The crew at smith’s went out of the the way to help me when my dodge stranded me on the side of the road. Hooked me up w a loaner Prius and went over all the detail’s about fixing my dodge, also enjoyed the adorable 4 legged shop canine (rocky) . They have a customer for life.
Thanks so much for the kind words! We're so glad we could help get you and your Dodge back on the road. And we appreciate you showing some love for our shop dog Rocky - he may be cute, but we keep him around for his top-notch diagnostic skills! 🐶 In all seriousness, it's customers like you that make days like that rewarding for us, even when they start off with a breakdown. We're happy to supply a "luxurious" Prius loaner car...everyone should get to experience one in their life! 😉 We look forward to seeing more of you and that Dodge of yours for many years to come. Just beware of Rocky when carrying food in the shop - he can easily take down a full-grown technician to get to some pizza crumbs! Thanks again from all of us here at Smith Automotive!
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While we're disappointed to see you had a negative experience, it seems you may have us confused with another provider, as we have no record of serving you. We always strive to deliver exceptional service and high-quality work for all our customers. If you've had an issue with another automotive business, we'd encourage you to reach out to them directly to resolve your concerns. We're happy to discuss our services and policies if you'd like, but it seems there may have been a mix-up here. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any questions. We'd be glad to clarify anything about our business and how we work to provide the best possible experience for our customers.
Double check any quote you receive. Got a quote for $200 for a speed sensor replacement. Ended up doing it in auto zone parking lot for $20 and 7 minutes of my time. They also tried quoting me over $1000 dollars for a repair. The part was $70 and repair took all of 20 minutes. $200 for differential fluid service. Again $30 in fluid and 15 minutes it’s fixed. All in all they wanted $1400 for $120 worth of parts and an hours worth of time. Sad….
Thank you for taking the time to provide this detailed feedback. We appreciate you sharing your experience, as it will help us identify opportunities to improve our pricing and better serve our customers. It's concerning to hear that our initial quotes were so far off from the actual costs you were able to find elsewhere. Providing transparent, accurate estimates is something we strive for, so this clearly indicates we have more work to do in that area. Your examples of the significant discrepancies between our quoted prices and the actual parts/labor costs are very valuable. We will thoroughly review our pricing practices, labor rates, and policies to ensure we are offering fair, competitive rates that align with the true work required. Transparency and trust are essential in the automotive repair industry. While we aim to provide comprehensive inspections and quality workmanship, we must also ensure our pricing matches the service delivered. Your feedback has given us important areas to focus on improving. Please know that we appreciate you taking the time to share these details. Constructive criticism like this helps us become a better, more customer-focused business. Thank you again for the review.
