Best darn decision I made to have a second opinion! Dealer recommended a U- joint replacement that would have cost >$1000. I came here for a second opinion. Dan, Lucas and Chris were awesome. Dan found that the bolts needed tightening and the joint didn't need to be replaced. They were so helpful, professional, knowledgeable and honest. I will be a permanent customer. Thanks, Lucas, Dan and Chris! See you when I return!

I have been coming to honest one for a little over 10 years now. I have never had a complaint about the price or the service. They have worked on all my vehicles and have always been willing to work with me. From the office staff to the technicians, they always make sure that I am aware of issues that are coming and they have always backed up their work as well. Thank you all

I’ve used this shop twice now and both times the experience has been excellent. They do a great job communicating — clearly explaining the issues, the repair plan, and how long it will take. The staff is friendly, professional, and the shop is very well managed. I really appreciate their honesty and efficiency, and I’ll definitely continue to bring my car here for any future repairs.

Brought my car in to get tires and an oil change for winter and realized I needed a lot more work. The guys were great. I picked my car up and the check engine light was on and I turned around and went back and the boys made the light go off and tested it to see what was causing it. Also, let me know that if the light came back on in the next month to come back.
William Andrews
I brought my car in due to a dead battery and/or a bad alternator. The service was top notch. Thank you to Roberto and his team, new customer for life! I definitely recommend Honest-1 Auto Care.

Manager was extremely helpful and they were very transparent with my vehicle issues. Not pushy at all. Very pleasant experience, highly recommend.

After driving through flood waters and having my 'engine power low' lights come on I was in a panic! I am so relieved that Honest 1 was able to get me in right away. Staff Is very kind and friendly, the bathroom is clean and tidy, complimentary snack and waters , a play areas for children and they even have a massage chair. This is where i will be taking my vehicle from now on! I am very impressed with a shop that goes above and beyond

Signs you need a battery replacement
If you purchased the battery less than three years ago, it might be replacement time if:
- Your engine is slow to start or not starting
- Dashboard lights are on, but the car won't start
- Your lights seem dimmer than usual
- There's corrosion on the battery terminals
Whether you need a car battery replacement or jump-start, our Roadworthy Experts® are here to keep your ride running longer and more efficiently.
Look out for these battery drainers
- Extreme Temperatures: Both extreme heat and cold can put stress on your battery and wear it out faster
- Lack of Use: Infrequent use or long stretches in the garage means your battery isn't getting a chance to recharge as it should
- Overcharging: Going overboard (often due to a faulty alternator) can overheat and damage the battery
- Corrosion: Corrosion (white or blue gunk) on the battery terminals can mess with the charging process
- Electrical Drain: Leaving lights, electronics, or other gadgets on when the engine is off
Beyond the battery: Your alternators and starter
The alternator gets your engine running, and the starter keeps your battery charged on the go. Issues with these parts can be more challenging to identify, and a car battery replacement won’t fix them. If your alternator or starter faces problems, you might:
- Stall more and more often
- Notice dimmer internal or external lights
- Smell burning rubber or wires
- Hear a growling or whining noise
Schedule Roadworthy Certified® car battery services at an Honest1 near you. Our team won’t just get you back on the road. We’ll make sure you don’t need another charging system checkup again for a while.
