Amazing mechanics and car shop!! Ty is as honest as they come. Fair pricing, great service, they shoot you straight and don’t try to up charge you things you don’t need. Forget the dealership body shops, all you need is Ty’s! Thanks for keeping my car healthy and problem free, guys!

One of the realest auto shops I’ve been too! They don’t bs you on the price, and they get it done super quick! I’ve had many places try to take advantage of me or just ignore my car’s issues. I will definitely be returning!

Ty’s has done so much for me and my Jeep Liberty. About a month ago came in for new shocks and struts and my ride feels much smoother especially on those front struts. Now I am back with a whole new set of problems that I needed looked at. They were able to fix this awful burning smell coming from the engine area and they fixed my braking and my ride has never felt smoother until now. Turns out my front rotors were warped and they were very honest telling me that my pads still had plenty of life left and I feel like any other shop would try to upsell me and say I need new pads and everything but not Ty’s. Ty’s has always been very honest. I also had a heater problem and they put so much time and effort working on that and you can tell the level of commitment that this place has to your vehicle every time you bring it in. You can tell that they are not so much worried about just getting cars off the lot as much as they are about actually fixing the problem and doing the job right and I appreciate that so much. I want to personally thank the technician Paul he worked so diligently and put so much time and effort into the Jeep Liberty and I’m looking at old repair orders and I see that he is assigned my vehicle a lot of the time and I can’t thank him enough and express my gratitude and that also goes out to Ty himself and all of the other technicians that have helped me with my car. Actually a few months back was having trouble with my battery so I swung into Ty’s and I didn’t even have an appointment but they stopped what they were doing and diagnosed I had a leaking battery put in a new battery and sent me on my way. Thank you Ty’s so much.

Extremely satisfied. Made an appointment to drop off my jeep, and they fixed the issue the same day for a very reasonable price. Highly recommend Ty's. 👌

My go-to auto-care, Ty's Automotive, since I moved here in 2018. Recommended to me by a neighbor and have used their services now and then since then. Yesterday, most recent. Ty personally helped diagnose condition of my car after dash Check Engine light came on. No charge. Always, honest and professional - top-notch mechanics/people!

Ty squeezed me in during a busy week. Great work, honest process, good price

Had a great experience. They are kind and professional and got my car running again quickly. They showed amazing integrity in our conversations by being clear with exactly what they thought the problem was, what the next steps are, and by back tracking installation of new parts when they later discovered that the old part still worked fine and the problem was elsewhere. They went above and beyond my expectations and Ty's will be my (hopefully infrequent) go-to for mechanic needs. Thanks guys!

I went to Tys and got brakes and rotors done for a very fair price. Very good work and very professional. Awesome experience. I've been looking for a good mechanic shop with good work and fair pricing for the last 20 years. I'm glad to say I've found my spot 💯💯💯

If you want a car repair shop that is clean, professional, and where the team has a contagious synergy, then I cannot highly recommend Ty’s Automotive in Broad Ripple enough! After being told by a car dealership in Carmel that I needed over $700 worth of services, I decided to get a second opinion. Thank goodness I did. The mechanics at Ty’s Automotive simply *get it*. They understand the incredible positions of power they hold and do not abuse it. We initially chose Ty’s Automotive because my husband, who owns an FJ Cruiser, took his car to them for repair. They were not only swift about diagnosing the issue, but they also fixed it at a very reasonable price. He wasn't charged a dime when he had to return for a minor tweak. The process was easy and seamless, and they earned our trust from that interaction, so I knew I could trust them with my car. When you entrust your car to a professional, you’re already vulnerable. Most of us don’t have the mechanical insight to fully understand what’s going on, so we rely on them to be truthful and honest—not only with pricing but with the necessity of the work that is or isn’t needed. No one likes to be taken advantage of, and Ty’s Automotive ensured I wasn’t. At the KIA dealership in Carmel, I was told the following repairs were necessary: a drive belt replacement for $265, an alignment for $99.99, a coolant exchange for $193, and a transmission fluid exchange for $220. This brought the total to $795.64—money I do not have. I would’ve ended up using a credit card and going into more debt than I could afford. In contrast, the team at Kia of Carmel could learn a lot from Ty’s. There is only one shining light at that dealership: Cory, who installed the fuse for my car's recall—he was absolutely amazing. But beyond Cory, it seems they don’t understand that people already approach dealerships with fear and apprehension, and for good reason. My car is a 2012 with only 89,000 miles on it. I hardly ever drive it, and I keep up with preventative maintenance. I cannot believe they attempted to rip me off. They should be ashamed. You have broken my trust, and that is not good. Ty’s Automotive, on the other hand, considered that times are tough, and people just can’t afford to be taken advantage of when they’re trying to maintain the vehicles that get them to and from the jobs that pay their bills. Their honesty and integrity were a breath of fresh air, especially as I prepare for a family road trip in just a few days. If you want a team that values integrity and fairness and genuinely cares about its customers, Ty’s Automotive is the place to go. They’ve earned my trust and business for life!

Always great service, the only place I feel comfortable bringing my car to. Knowledgeable staff, always polite, very helpful, reasonably priced, quick turnaround and they always do a great job. Absolute 5 star service.

Ty has been our mechanic of choice for many years. Good work, fair prices.

Absolutely would not recommend ESPESCIALLY if you do not understand how a car works. Ty himself is a scammer. These guys have no shame and will fool even an old lady with no car experience into dumping an obscene amount of money on an unfixable vehicle. They will not be honest with you. DO NOT TRUST THEM. Feel free to find out for yourself, but they do disguise their terrible prices and service very well. Would put 0/5 if I could.

Great shop, my family has gone there for years since the 49th and Penn shop. Courteous and professional

Edit: my ac worked from the beginning so no work was done, I never even had an electrical problem it was actually ny battery and another shop fixed it same day and it runs perfect now I was given documents to prove my car didn’t even have an electrical draw so my $40 would have been wasted, my car was in their parking lot not storage for two whole days crazy, and finally my bill and key was literally thrown at me upon asking for an explanation on why I had to pay anything. Tell people beforehand if they are going to be charged if the work needed is more in depth or just charge people for check ups. One star review beyond deserved. Thank you for the apology on poor communication Bad communication on charges and bad customer service. I’m sure they’re great if they can actually make money by fixing something on your car. Mine was an electrical issue that could not be fixed by them. I called to ask after dropping my car off at first if there was a charge and was told no. When I got there I was told I owed $40. After I spent like $30 on a Lyft to go pick it up. When trying to underestand why I owed money when they did nothing but identify a problem that wasn’t even the correct problem I later found out my cars fixed now, the owner got upset and threw the bill and my key at me and said just take it. Bad customer I understand of someone was having a hard day, but worse communication.

Took my 2017 Corvette here for transmission oil change. Found all of them very friendly, prompt and honest. Plus they are very close to where I live, so happy to have found a reliable service station for my ride. Spent fraction of the $ & half the time dealership would cost me. Glad I took my car there.

Always great to have these guys work on my car. Fast, efficient, and honest!

They are as of now 10 days out to obtain service on ones car that may take a couple of hours. That is saying something good about their work, but if you are a new potential customer and need work look elsewhere for the foreseeable future like when it snows a foot on the 24 of July of any future. Where there is good service at a reasonable price, the the service center will be what it is...busy

I don't think I'm ever going to take our vehicles anywhere else from now on! The mechanic assigned to my car called me a couple of hours after dropoff. He had done a full inspection, and we talked about what he saw in addition to the repairs I had requested. He carefully went over the options and helped me decide which repairs were worth it and which were lower priority. Very professional and good solid advice. My 20 year old Pontiac Vibe is going to live a little longer after all :-)

Took my here on a friends recommendation. I was being quoted over $1600 for work on my car. They were up front with me about what needed done and what didn’t. Saved over $1500. Highly recommend.

Ty is Indy's Scotty Kilmer, the famous You Tube Old School mechanic. Been going to see Ty for 15 years after finding him on Angie's List back in the day when you could trust the list before the company was purchased by unscrupulous Home Advisor. Ty won the prestigious Super Service Award every year! I love taking my car to Ty. He never ever sells you things you don't need because he has plenty of business and is not corporate chain with sales goals. Every visit is top notch professional and stress free with gentle prices. Today my 2010 Toyota Avalon (I call her "Cream Puff") got new rotors, tire rotation, full synthetic oil change, bulb replacement, cabin filter and thorough car inspection. The bill wasn't high and came to under $600 and only took 1.5 hours. The wait room is big and spacious, nice customers to chat with and family feel to the very clean shop. There's even an office cubicle if you want to work while you wait. All of his mechanics are kind and professional and VERY knowledgeable. He takes all the stress away and knows his stuff.

Ty's honest auto repair..

Ty’s is great! Amazing service, honest team and always have the clients best interest in mind… Brandt and his team have turned me away on business many times saying “you don’t need to spend this yet” or “ I would get a second opinion first before sinking xyz into your car” If you want a reliable and truly honest mechanic… go to Ty’s. We take all of our cars here and haven’t been disappointed yet Well done!

Went to the dealership for an oil change they came back with $1600 worth of work my car needed so I took it to Tys for their input. I needed new front break pads and my front control arms were loose but not dire. They explained everything to a T and their pricing around 35% less than the dealership which saved me about $1k (they fixed both control arms instead of only one quoted by the dealership). They are honest, thorough and do their work well. I feel safe driving my car again and will be using them for all my repair needs.
