Great place, very professional service Jaime is definitely very knowledgeable
I have entered a previous review of Davila Auto Services and this is an edit entered on April 5, 2023. I am completely satisfied with the work and service that I have received at Davila Auto Services and my person that I primarily interact with is the service manager named Jaime. I have had quite a bit of work performed on my car at Davila as my car was approaching 100,000 miles. As of this writing, my 2015 Kia Optima SLX Turbo is now over 102,000 miles and runs like new. I have not had the need for any engine work, but they have replaced my rack & pinion, brakes, rotors. shocks, springs and radiator fan module. Sure, the parts and labor cost where considered costly and I would have preferred to pay less, but it was very fair and reasonable. Because I am extremely dependent on my car, having the work done right was my priority. I have never had any issues with work performed. I completed my last visit by jokingly telling Jaime that I appreciate him, but hope I don't see him for awhile. I stumbled onto Davila Auto Services, over a year ago, as a result of being unable to start my car following switching out the car battery in the parking lot of Costco's; which is down the street. My auto dealership, where I had been taking my car for maintenance, is in Matteson, Illinois ( too far). I randomly and nervously selected Davila Auto Services via Google Maps. I interacted with Mr. Davila at that time. It was diagnosed simply as a loose cable wire and he charged me less that then hourly labor cost. At that time, I realized that I found my new repair shop.
Have been using them for many years and many vehicles!
I depend on my vehicle for work so when it needs maintenance or repair I go to the guys that always deliver! Great communication, great staff and fair pricing. What more can you ask for. If I ever move out of the area I’ll still be driving back to Pilsen for my auto repairs.
I've had 2 great experiences with these guys. A tow from their partners was like 75 bucks since I was local, and they had the repairs done the next day both times. They are very clear about what you are paying for and do good work. My new go-to mechanic.
Excellent & great service
Wonderful service, always gives me a great price and can fit me in whenever I call! So grateful this place is in the neighborhood
I came from a shop that did not fix my car and my AAA lead me to here they took great care of my car and very up front about what was going on with it• Great service in the times we live now it's good knowing God has some good jewels around, AndDAVILA AUTO SERVICE is one great place to go. Shout to Gabriel for taking good care of my car as the winter time comes in.Ask for him by name!
Davila Auto Service is an amazing place I am so grateful to have found. I first took my car in for belt replacement and they were very quick, affordable and friendly with the repair. I came back a second time in distress after someone stole my catalytic converter, and Jamie made the process of replacing it and repair much more bearable. I love this place and will keep coming back.
What can I say? I'm all smiles. Davila Auto Service is amazing. Excellent customer service! Very reliable and quick. I came in on a Wednesday and right away someone greeted me for my car issue. Within minutes they pulled my car in and fulfilled the need of my oil change. Now I can travel and my engine be secured. The problems fixed. Thankyou Davila for your service! BEST PLACE TO GO TO IN CHICAGOLAND. 🥳
At Davila first off the staff is so nice they they are so sufficient and quick do not try and over charge you they are A1.
Great people to work with, helped us figure out a complicated warranty situation after a break down from a repair at a different shop
I’ve used Davila for several jobs on my car and they’re always fast, even squeezing me in when they’re super busy. Very knowledgeable and their pricing is very competitive, so they’re both cheaper and more effective than other garages I’ve used.
Jamie has taken care of us 3+ times now at Davila Auto Service. He’s fixed our engine, turbo charger, coolant leak, and now wheel bearings. Each time Davila has given us a fast and fair quote, while also doing a great job communicating timelines. We’ve had poor experiences with three other mechanics in the city, and Davila has stood head and shoulders above the rest. What impressed us most is how quickly they would call us and communicate their findings, timelines, and proposed solutions. If you want a reliable, fast, and trustworthy mechanic - give them a try!
Awesome place, AAA referred us to this place, just moved from Texas and we had car issues they took care of us with professional respect , ran several test to Diagnose the problem and fixed it right away! Couldn’t have choose a better place
I visited Davila twice in the span of a month, once for a check engine light and once for a stolen catalytic converter on my 2009 Volkswagen Rabbit. Every aspect of working with them was fantastic; Gabriel especially went above and beyond to answer all of my questions and they were very honest and transparent. They were incredibly communicative with my car insurance and made sure to be accessible during the claim and repair process. Would highly recommend for anyone who needs work done on a European or any car!

I have employed them as my primary mechanic in Chicago for the past two years. In that time, I had a variety of work done on my auto: fuel line replacement, resonator replacement, diagnostics work done on brakes, and most recently a new catalytic converter installed.
All in all, the labor pricing is very competitive and the new parts/auto repairs have lasted and maintained their quality. They also work fast with most repairs done in a day.

This is by far the best automotive repair shop I have used! They are very reasonable, thorough, patient and incredibly friendly and helpful. I had my brakes and rotors done and they were a lot more reasonable than my dealership. They were very communicative and even helped me locate a reasonable tire shop. My brother recommended this shop. He says that they have kept his 17 year old Honda Civic in excellent shape. They were also very patient with all of my questions that I had. I highly recommend this auto shop!

These guys came as a suggestion from a friend and I am so grateful for their reference. Jamie and Juan are incredible. They went way above and beyond what was asked to help out in a tough time. A trustworthy honest car shop is hard to come by and I will continue to drive from Bucktown to see them when my car needs serviced. Do yourself a favor and bring your car to them!

My superheroes! Jaime and Juan went the extra mile to stay until AAA dropped off my car then gave a lift home. They literally had my car back up and running within less than 24hrs. So glad I found these guys and definitely will be back again

After having 12 cars and have been to several mechanics, I have to say this shop is by far one of the best. It actually feels like I’m dealing with family. I have had two vehicles that they have serviced and I can honestly say I’m satisfied. The customer service is great. Their communication is excellent. I love the way they explain everything.
Their turnaround time is on point and I never have to wait long. Two days at the most and that’s if I'm getting work done. This place is a winner!
I’ll definitely be bringing all my car here. Affordable and quality service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🏆

Had an issue with my brakes while near downtown, and needed a local place to take a look. They were able to take me in and fix the issue within the same day. Worked with Johnny and he was great at communicating the issue. Their rates are super reasonable and their location is a few blocks from the 18th st pink line stop.

I started coming here last year when my car battery died. I live around the corner and they came over and jumped my car and brought it over to their shop to fix. They never charged me for jumping my car and driving it over (granted I live super close), but still a very kind thing to do considering they didn’t have to do that.
I admittedly do not know much about cars (lol), but feel completely comfortable bringing my car here whenever I have an issue. I recently had to get a bigger car issue fixed, and they were responsive, timely, and easy! Would recommend!
