What can I say about Helmut & Vito’s except that is the best independent auto service in the Chicago area, period. I own a 2000 Mercedes CK320 Cabriolet with only 30,000 miles on the odometer and H&V is the only shop that services my car.

- Berwyn, IL

These guys are great! We’ve been taking our vehicles there (05′ A6, 05 BMW and an 06′ A4) for a few years now and have always had the best service at an honest price.

- Naperville, IL

I dread going to the mechanic – often feels like I’m a gold fish in a shark tank. These guys were great – I needed a new alternator and they offered a cheaper refurbished part to bring the cost down. Also they dropped me off and picked me up! All in all they were: fair, friendly, and responsive!
