Very accommodating, good rate on indoor storage for my AMG before the delivery driver picked it up

Absolute 5 star experience. I broke down outside of Lincoln, in my 2010 Volkswagen Passat, approximately 20 miles out, century got to me quickly! The people over at century were responsive and honest throughout the whole experience, and even came in on a closed day just so I could get my car back, which is absolutely above and beyond! Just wanted to say thanks to you all over there for getting my car in and out in a timely manner! To everyone reading, these guys will get you set straight, the tow price was unbeatable, as well as the parts/labor/repair. Thank you all, many blessings! - Jesse

Average pricing, friendly people, but I would have liked them to have called me prior to making the repairs when I had asked for a tow and engine diagnostic. They also tried to charge me $30 for changing the battery in my key fob (I got a 5 pack of the batteries for $6 on amazon). Was $75 for a 4 mile tow, $147 for a 2016 Honda Accord battery, $60 for testing charging and starting system and battery replacement, then 7.25% tax.

Recommend this place to anyone. The parking lot setup is kind of jank, but the price and service are great.

I can't say enough good things about Century Automotive. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with such kindness and professionalism. I needed to have my intoxalock installed and calibrated, which I knew could be a bit of a hassle . However, the team at Century Automotive went out of their way to ensure everything was done perfectly and efficiently. They made the entire process smooth and stress free. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly unmatched. I highly recommend Century Automotive. They are simply the best!

These folks are truly wonderful! They worked with me to assist with repairs on my daughter's car. I'm 3 hours away, and they called me with each step in the diagnosis to explain what they were seeing, how they'd like to proceed, and got approval/OK's from me before taking those next steps. Everything was clear, rational, and promptly addressed. The online scheduling was also a great option for me to be able to document what I knew was going on up front, any history, a VIN, etc. They definitely read it because when we first spoke on the phone, that shared context helped keep everything clear for what was needed. No matter how you look at it, cars can be expensive to own and maintain. When they need repair, it's going to cost something. Along this repair journey, I was also given plenty of clarity on what would NOT need to be done to avoid unnecessary costs since it's not a car in need of premium parts or million-mile longevity. That is an above-and-beyond behavior in my book, and one that I'd highlight as a differentiator for the technicians at Century Automotive. I'm very thankful for Lenny and the team, and though we all hope to not need repairs often, they'll get my business and referrals for those in the area without any hesitation!

All around great experience. Very thankful for the customer support


Apr 06, 2024

These guys do AMAZING work! They've done work on my vehicle several times for fraction of what dealerships will. (I own an ageing 2010 Nissan, that needs some TLC, beyond DIY work). I recommend all of my friends and family to Century if they have any Auto issues. Save yourself some money and headache and take your vehicle to Century. It's nice supporting a local business, as opposed to the big dealership. The owners of the shop are great!

Amazing customer service and caring environment. As a walk in I'll be a new long lasting customer!

Honest, reliable automotive service


Feb 06, 2024

Always fast and more than fair on price. Been doing business with them for almost 20 years. Having a mechanic you can trust is as good as money in the bank!


Feb 06, 2024

Best customer service and quality, and fairly priced! Love coming here!!!


Feb 06, 2024

Century is a very good place to get a car serviced. They are quick and the entire staff is friendly. I would recommend them to anybody


Feb 06, 2024

Extremely friendly! They repaired my car at a very acceptable price. Century also helped me swap out my busted rear wiper-blade. The service was fast and they treated me with respect. I 100% recommend them for any car repair and towing.


Feb 06, 2024

Great service and fast. Prices were reasonable.


Feb 06, 2024

Great service!

I got a flat tire out on Hwy77. They were able to promptly tow my truck back to their shop & replace my tires, to get me back on the road. Thank you Century!

I've had every vehicle I've ever owned re-keyed. That's with a tow sir and never once did it cost me $950......even at the Volkswagen dealership with the tow it was only $350 you straight took your time up until the 15 days was past and you didn't even start the job. You should've had the job done. You had a guy that was interested in buying it and you told me that after 15 days even though the job wasn't finished you were going to start charging me a fee. You told me that it said it right on the wall even though i never stepped a foot in the place cause you were still working on fixing it. You know what kinda fishy business your up to better than anybody bud. What you did to me wasn't fair especially knowing I didn't have a title for it yet. You're not right for what you did to me. Word of mouth goes a long way. Especially when there's a mouth out here that's bigger than Matts mouth. That's bad business either way.

Lenny understands cars and diagnosing problems. I trust Century to fix and help maintain my car. Highly recommend!!


Feb 06, 2024

One of very few places in Lincoln that will not take you for a fool. My fiance went to a place called breaks plus and they were going to charge her 3k just to replace the brake lines. It was around $800 for a full brake service including brake line repair. Other places in town also quoted around $2.5k for brake lines only! This team of mechanics are experienced, humble, and they treat you like a person not like a clueless bag of money! I honestly don't go anywhere else in town when my cars need work. They deserve every penny!


Feb 06, 2024

Poor management. There driver ran a stop sign coming onto hwy 34.right infront of a semi coming down a hill.


Feb 06, 2024

Very happy with the service. I will be returning!


Feb 06, 2023

So I had a clutch go out on my jeep on my way to work so I needed a tow and repair service. Soi wanted anew clutch and a cv axel on the driver's side because it clicked when you turned and the tire shook when breaking. But they only fixed the clutch. Didn't give me a new cv axel but a control arm and that I didn't ask for.also several other things I didn't ask for. Or discussed with. And after 1900.00 she turns around and charged me for the tow when I was told the tow was free if I get repair service there. After I paid the 1900.00 I am not happy with the service. And still have half the issue still needing fixed.


Feb 06, 2023

Fast and fair! They get our vehicles in and out! Done right the first time! Very trustworthy!


Feb 06, 2023

Feb 06, 2023

I do not like this shop they are not professional they like to sabotage people's vehicles put old Parts back on pretend like they know how to fix it an overcharged outrageous I wonder if they got their degree wish I know they don't and they're trying to make other shops look bad when it's them you never fix my timing chain and my power steering is not fix either I pay you cash this guy ripped me off


Feb 06, 2023

Nicest repair shop. Completely transparent and honest about every single part of the process. As somebody who doesn't know much about cars or repairs, I felt completely comfortable there. I trust the staff and owners 100%. Thanks L. & co.!


Feb 06, 2023

Staff is very friendly and the communication is excellent! They got my car in fast, diagnosed quickly, and fixed within a few hours! They communicated with me the cost before proceeding with the fix and my car drives better than ever! Very honest and professional, I will definitely being going back!
