What Drivers are Saying

Megatron Melby

I always have a great experience at Honest-1. They took excellent care of my car and went above and beyond with the work they did. Miles and Sean made me feel truly appreciated as a customer, which is rare to find these days. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable mechanic shop.

Daniel McDowell

Big shout out to the crew at honest-1 in new hope. Noticed a screw in my tire at 6pm. While the other tire shops in the area were too busy, these guys got me right in, looked at the tire, and determined that there was no leak. So no charge. What a great end to a bad scenario.

Erin Ahneman

I had a great experience at Honest 1 Auto Care. They provided me with all of the information I needed but with zero pressure to fix any of the issues that I didn’t know about prior to my visit. The attitude was “Keep these things in mind for the next 6-18 months.” I will be back and appreciate Kurt and the team at Honest 1 AC!!

Jesse Reed

Needed to get my wheel bearing replaced, not only was the quote less than I expected, I was able to get in same day. They also let me use a loaner car for the couple of hours they had my vehicle. I would absolutely recommend honest-1 to anyone. Thank you!

Alicia Brown

My first time to Honest 1 was very refreshing. The young lady that helped me in was very professional and pleasant. The quote she gave me for the battery was very reasonable, and I was able to have my battery replaced. I would definitely have services done there on all my cars. Thanks Honest 1.
