Matt's Auto Repair - Willmar MN Location

The History Of Our Willmar Location

Nestled in the historic town of Willmar, MN, Matt’s Automotive Service Center takes pride in offering exceptional auto repair services that raise the bar for automotive industry standards. 

Originally owned by a dedicated husband and wife team specializing in Asian and European cars, the sudden passing of the husband led to the wife taking over. In October 2022, we acquired this shop and embarked on an extensive remodeling project. We transformed the store into a freshly remodeled environment, complete with a new lobby and office area, plus air conditioning for our technicians in the shop, creating a fantastic space to serve our guests. With a focus on exceptional service, we have retained the majority of the existing staff who constantly demonstrate growth. 

At Matt’s Automotive Service Center in Willmar, we believe in delivering more than just an auto repair experience.

I like that they have details and pics to go with itemized quotes. So far, I've had good service, and poor service. I will stick with them for now, but wish their prices weren't a nickel and dime situation. A little more personal service and explanation of importance of the list of repair items would go a long way to keeping me.

I called in the morning and told Dustin what the problem i was experiencing and he asked me to come by and he would take a look. As we are from out of state, he got us in the schedule and took care of the problem. Very good experience and would highly recommend.

They did a good job. Informed me of what needs to be fixed and cost. I was able to decline any extra things they found or would need attention. Professional staff.

a major shout out to Dustin!!! We came in from out of town after our car started shaking on the highway. Matt’s Automotive Service Center was able to see us before the end of the day and fix the balance on the wheels quickly so we could make it back to our family vacation with a smooth ride. Friendly, helpful, and super speedy service. I also saw Dustin handling multiple calls at the same time - with a good sense of humor, a deep knowledge of the problems his customers were having, and a calm patient presence - especially given it was so late in a work day. Top notch. Thanks again!

Switched to Matt’s a few months ago with my 3 Foreign cars and have had great luck with them! Dustin is great at communicating what needs to be done and timelines always work out. I’ve been very appreciative of the work they have done for me and will continue to use their services!

I have gone to them twice, when they told me the cost of fixing the vehicle I was shocked. I got an estimate for a repair on my van from 2 places, and they both came back with $250, but needed about 4 days to do the world. I went to Matt's and they said $950. When I mentioned how much the other places wanted, the guy got mad at me told me to leave and take the vehicle to one of the other places. Claimed there was no way to get the part for less than $600. Both Napa and O'Reilly's had the part in stock for under $120. I ended up taking the vehicle to Town and Country in Spicer and had the work done the next day for $255. And those guys make you feel appreciated for coming to them.

I was very pleased with the work they did and the staff was very helpful on explaining everything that needed to be done. Would recommend going to have your car or truck looked at.

Quick review for this amazing service center. In from out of town and Dustin and the team were absolutely amazing!!! They were able to get us in for an issue we were having, when no one else in the area would. Within a few hours they had us on the road. Friendly and professional customer service, with a hot cup of coffee and a comfy place to park ourselves. The place was the cleanest service center I have been in. Thank you Dustin and the team for your overwhelming hospitality!!!

Recently purchased a 2013 Escalade, CEL came on, read the code -bad oil pressure sensor- 50 bucks at the store. After buying the part, I realized after a quick search it was more than I wanted to do in a parking spot.. pull up the fuel line etc.. booked appointment online- they put the part I bought in for a mere $527.00! I asked what did I get for that?! He said they put the switch in .. $250hr rate.. can’t imagine it’s more than a 45 min job.. guy at the counter was far from welcoming… really deserves 0 stars.. stay far, far away.

We were stranded with a new puppy and our other dog 3 hours from home. They found the issue, tracked down the parts we needed and Josh went above and beyond and was willing to stay late to replace what was needed and get us back on the road. Wonderful to work with, talk to and I would forever highly recommend them!! Thank you again!

Dustin was so extremely helpful and never left me in the dark. I don’t know anything about cars, but he explained things in a way I could understand. They did a fantastic job on my car and will definitely be coming back.

Had them check out our car after a different shop failed to diagnose it correctly after having it for a month, which did more damage in the end. Got an answer within two days and let me tell you the amount this shop goes through to help you out and make sure you understand everything 100% is just crazy, they will go above and beyond to ensure things get fixed the right way RIGHT away. Definitely recommend coming here if you want a shop you can rely on with great service. Huge shoutout to Andrew and Dustin for helping us out so much, those two helped us the whole way, gave us great advice and explained everything to us through and through. Can’t explain how happy I am with this team.

I have been taking my Subaru to Matt's since I bought it. It is one of few places besides a Sunaru dealership that will work on them. Matt's always gets me in quickly and always lets me know when the services are done so I can make arrangements to get back and pick it up.

We needed a GPS Tracking and Recovery System installed on a clients new vehicle in the Willmar, MN area. We reached out to Dustin at Matt's to get it done and couldn't be happier. The system was installed quickly and professionally at a very reasonable price.I highly recommend Dustin and the crew at Matt's.
