Had my car towed on a weekend and they were able to fit me in Monday because of a cancellation. They called to explain the work that would be required and give me an estimate of both the cost and time to complete the job. They were accurate on both counts. Very professional and courteous. Thanks guys!

This was my first time using Knibbe and I was extremely pleased with the service. Shaun was very helpful and explained exactly what was going on with my AC after they had a chance to take a look. They were able to fix it the same day and the final price even came in under what I was initially quoted. It would have been easy for them to just charge whatever the quoted amount was but they were honest with the service and charged based on the actual time taken. I have just moved to the area and will make this spot my go-to for any repairs in the future.

We always use Knibbe for servicing our cars and we are never disappointed. Most recently we needed a service and knew that there were problems (engine lights, brakes etc). They took the car in the same day and completed all the work quickly, efficiently and at a reasonable cost. They are always friendly and polite. I would recommend them to anyone (and it's good to support excellent local companies like this one!)

I walked into front office and asked for assistance to replace brake light. Without hesitation I was helped. The taillight replaced and no charge! I would definitely bring my car here for servicing! A very pleasant experience’

I recently brought my van into Knibbe after reading some reviews online. They completely exceeded my expectations, Randy spoke with me several times over the phone to update me on the status. They weren't happy with an original part replacement and wanted to ensure the repair was done properly before returning my vehicle. I couldn't be happier. I have had less than stellar experiences elsewhere and it's relieving finding a place that seems honest and upfront. Showing you the part they replaced was a huge added bonus, I will definitely be backThank you so much Randy and the whole team and Knibbe.

I can always count on Knibbe for fair prices, friendly advice and great work. Their staff is super approachable and happy to explain in detail what services are required and why. They have also have recommended against certain services like fuel injection flush because they are not necessary. I feel like they have my best interests at heart.

The service and professionalism at Knibbe is always great. I am treated with respect, spoken to with consideration and everything is explained without anyone being condescending. They answer all of my questions, I never feel pressured to spend money on anything that isn't necessary, and they always make sure that the car is safe for me to drive.They go above and beyond and I am very grateful to them. Thank you.This particular time they reattached my front bumper which had come off unexpectedly. They fixed it so that I didn't have to replace it with a new one, which would have been expensive.?happy!

I visited the shop after talking with Joe. They are very professional, and detail oriented with clear expectations and cost estimates. The shop is very clean and organized and timely to complete the work. They did inspection and provided their opinion very reasonable. This was after I recived a different assessment and cost estimate on repair from other shop. I definitely fix and repair the car in this shop and like to advise others too. When you ask them about what maintenance is required, you feel that they care.

Been going to Knibbe for years now with different vehicles and it’s always great to deal with them. You always know the job is done right and they explain and show you what needs to be done. Very honest! They don’t do more repairs then is required and tell you up front if it can be deferred.

Never have I been to a Automotive Service company experience such amazing service. Not just one service tech but all of them are truly transparent and authentic.Their goal of providing the best service possible shines threw at every opportunity. Unlike other places the feeling that they are being honest about what needs to be repaired/serviced and explaining it as a real person.They went above and beyond when I needed help with a battery they offered their time and effort free of charge simply because they care.They provide a atmosphere where you feel like you are family and they provide the service as their it is their own vehicle

Knibbe staff always provides up front information in terms of what has been discovered or diagnosed with your vehicle. Unlike other repair locations, Knibbe advises the customer EARLY ON in the process, allowing additional items found and needing attention and the costs to repair shared. Then, the customer has the choice to proceed at the same appointment or delay and come back in the future. Great business practice. Honest, upfront, accurate pricing, friendly staff, on time delivery! What more can a customer ask for?

Had a great experience at Knibbe in October 2020. No one likes spending money on vehicle repairs...its one of the least exciting expenses. Knibbe makes the experience a pleasure with their friendly service, clear communication and up front approach to vehicle repairs. I had a clear understanding of what needed to be repaired and what could wait. I consider Knibbe my go to garage for vehicle repairs and maintenance.

The only place I'll take my car too and now the only place my partner goes to, when he needs work done on his truck. Honest. They know what they are doing. Friendly. I also like that they explain things in a way that I can understand. You'll receive the best service here.

As a young woman and first time car owner it was very important I found an honest and reliable automotive shop. The guys at Knibbe were so friendly, informative and most importantly they genuinely cared! This will definitely be my go to car shop going forward as I know I’m in safe hands here! Thanks again guys! Cheers!

This review is long over due,My family and I have used this garage for around 10 years. Whether it was for a simple fix for our vehicle or a more recent fix of a front axle and power transfer unit. Knibbe has fair pricing and excellent customer service.My most recent visit to Knibbe was due to a vibration and noise coming from my Ford Edge. When I called in they were able fit my vehicle in right away. With our bad luck the noise was actually due to a bad power transfer unit and front right driver axle. Our vehicle is a 2010 with 230,000km, and having a bigger mechanical expense had us worried about putting money into an older vehicle. Before making a decision on if we should fix our vehicle Fred went above and beyond by offering to do an additional inspection to see if anything else was damaged or needing repair, free of charge, so that we could make a better decision on whether or not to fix our vehicle.Once the vehicle was fixed up Fred took the time to show me the parts that were broken and why they needed to be replaced.Thank you Fred and Knibbe for always being a reliable garage and going the extra mile to help my family every time we have an issue with a vehicle.We definitely recommend!

I Have been coming to see Knibbe for about 10 years now. They are the only Auto shop I trust and recommend here in Calgary. Extremely kind, courteous, and honest. Any time there has been a problem, they have always called in advance to give me an update.I love taking any of my vehicles here !

We're all only human, including the folks at Knibbe. After missing the proper diagnosis on my 2005 Subaru, Sean took the bull by the horns and made things right. Owning up to an error and then going above and beyond to ensure the repairs were fully completed...with a full discount applied on the first repair attempt...earned my respect, my trust and my future business. Quality customer service backed up with integrity. That's a rare combination these days and I surely appreciated it.

I have gone to them every time I need a service because they are very professional and efficient. They make me feel that they actually care about my car and will give the service it needs without trying to talk me into 'extra' stuff. I recommend them as one of the best!

Just want to say thank you to the team at Knibbe! A couple of weeks ago I took my car into Crowfoot Hyundai for recall work and asked them to look at my windshield wiper that wasn’t making contact with the windshield. Long story short, Hyundai said it would cost me $70 for them to even look at it (I declined but they looked anyway), $77 for a part, plus whatever their installation fee was. I decided to call Knibbe. I spoke with Fred and asked for an appointment but he told me to just bring my car down later that day and he’d take a look. He had it fixed within 5 minutes. No part. No charge. He was just happy to help. The customer service at Knibbe is unmatched.

Quality, honest, service. I have been going to Knibbe for about three or four years now. They are the first auto repair shop that I feel like I can trust and isn't trying to fleece me for money. They are extremely accommodating for scheduling. Whenever an unexpected repair needs to be done, they actually show me the part that is defective and why it actually needs to be replaced.The attendants are friendly and the customer service is out of this world. I will not take my vehicles to any other shop.

Knibbe has been my mechanic for at least 14 years. I keep returning because I feel that I can trust them. They communicate very clearly, do not recommend unnecessary work, and their prices are fair. They are also first rate for friendliness and courtesy.

This is the best automotive repair shop in north Calgary. I've dealt with guys since 2010 and they have always been polite, fair and respectful. Most of the Northwest already knows this so they are always pretty busy. The wait for an appointment is always worth it but if it's an emergency, reach out to them and I'm sure they will be as accommodating as they can be.

By far the best experience I have had with any shop. Very straightforward and honest, they found and fixed a problem that the dealership never addressed during any of my multiple visits, and did it free of charge. Joe was great to deal with and very professional, they gained me as a customer for life. I highly recommend using Knibbe !!!
Jason Lawrence

Amazing customer service and spectacular results every time. I have a very old car that requires lots of attention and repairs. Every time I need to get it fixed there are endless amounts of issues that make me debate even keeping the car, however the mechanics here are excellent at pin-pointing the issues, fixing them perfectly, and charging a reasonable amount. The men at Knibbe are very respectful of the car's condition and of the money that goes into it. The trust that we have built with one another allows me to always feel comfortable when driving, or when things are being repaired. They go above and beyond to make sure that I leave with a smile on my face.

Beyond your normal mechanic. This place isn’t going to pull the wool over anyone’s eyes, Randy told me the honest situation with my car (which wasn’t great news...) but then immediately turned around, talked to his manager Shaun and saved me over $500 on the repair. Sure I still spent a ton of money, but nobody ever said mechanical work was easy. This place is fantastic, you’ll be a customer for life.

I had a great experience at Knibbe Automotive and didn't feel like I was getting scammed even though they kept my car 2 nights longer than planned. They (Brian, specifically) kept me informed throughout the process of what was happening and assured me it wasn't going to cost me extra to have my car there as they didn't want to waste my money. Very rarely have I gone to an auto repair shop where I felt okay leaving my car there longer than necessary, worrying about racking up a huge bill. I will definitely be recommending Knibbe to my family and friends, and bringing my car there again.

I've been taking all of our vehicles to Knibbe for several years. The first time I had a car that was making a really horrible exhaust noise. They easily could have told me that it needed a new muffler etc, but instead said that it needed this little part for about 75 bucks. I appreciated the honesty and have grown to really trust that they are just trying to treat their customers right and run a good business. I highly recommend Knibbe.

Older vehicle that needed an insurance inspection...and 1 repair related to it passing inspection. I knew about the 1 repair even before I dropped the vehicle off...so no surprises when Jordan gave me the news. They fixed it at a very good price. During the calls we talked about other maintenance on the older vehicle (that I had ignored for far too long). Jordan worked with me and my budget to get what we needed done. He never tried to upsell me as I knew the work was required and long overdue. Jordan actually gave me options on keeping the costs down if I wanted. I would absolutely go back to them - honest to deal with and fair priced. I fully recommend them - support local !! All work was done on time..and no followup issues.

I can’t say enough about this shop. The staff is courteous, reliable and trustworthy. Most of us have little idea on how to repair a vehicle so we count on our mechanic to be honest and knowledgeable, this is Knibbe. Everyone I have recommended this shop too has thanked me.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff made booking my appointment easy and convenient. The repair on my my truck and sedan were both done quickly and with high quality. The staff even gave me the option of less expensive fixes that will do pretty much the same thing as the more expensive options. Overall, very satisfied.

Knibbe Automotive repair is one of the best car repair shops I've ever been to! The customer service was professional yet friendly and I have absolutely no trouble recommending this shop to anyone who is looking into the simplest or most complex inquiries. Fred was extremely helpful both over the phone and in person and is a testament to Mr. Knibbe's dedication to hiring a quality team for the best customer experience. 5/5, would come back again.

My third visit to Knibbe in Crowfoot and I have nothing bad to say about this place. The people who work there are great. The quality of repairs is great. The value of work/customer service for the money I paid is great. I can’t say enough good things about this place!

The customer service is absolutely fantastic. I was hugely impressed by the professional and friendly behaviour of the Manager Shaun Eriksen. These folks not only carried out the maintenance work on my vehicle quickly and efficiently when I visited them today, Shaun said the charges would be on him - it was as if Santa was visiting me belatedly. I recommend this place to everyone for their auto repair works; of course, I would keep coming to these people for my auto issues. All the best to Knibbe!

I took my ram into dodge dealer for recall work and dodge had two expensive items they wanted to repair (steering column rack leak and new brakes). I was suspicious so I looked under my truck for leaks and there was only some residual oil from an oil change i did, and brakes seem fine to me, so after reading great reviews of Knibbe, I took my truck there for an inspection. They did not try to sell me new brakes (their report said 30% brake life left, which is just perfect for years yet), no steering column leak, AND they also found 4 bolts super loose on my transfer case to the engine (so they tightened them 🙂 which ended up greatly reducing a vibration issue that i gave up on with the dealer as the dealer had it 4 times to try and fix and could not). Greatly recommend, thank you Knibbe!

My engine light went on, this is a scary thing for anyone! I took it to Knibbe and they did a full diagnostic... then they handed me my bill for $0... I was super confused and they said since they didn't do any parts or anything yet and didn't technically fix it (it just went off on it's own right before the service of course!) they didn't feel right charging me.My Father took his car to a dealer after this cold pinch we just had and it cost him $250.00. I mean it's clear, why trust anyone else with your car?Go to Knibbe! Friendly, they know what they are doing, and they actually put the customer first!

Amazing customer service... I was stick with flat tires due to the cold and they fixed me up, replaced a small part and sent me on my way without even charging me! I used to take my vehicle to Knibbe and will make the drive to start using them again. They have always been a very honest and helpful auto repair.

First time here. High level of communication and customer service! Showed me the part that was replaced and explained what the part does etc. It was great knowing that the people knew what they were talking about. I appreciated that they checked the rest of the drivetrain after servicing part of it. Personally I found the labor cost a little bit unexpected, but the work done was great. Thank you Knibbe!

I have been a customer of Knibbe for 10+ years and their customer service and workmanship has been outstanding. They are unique in their industry as they are honest, meet or exceed expectations, and have little to no staff turnover. They explain exactly what work needs done, and they will show you any old parts. A few times they even diagnosed the problem over phone, and assured me that it wasn't an urgent issue, saving me time and money. I would highly recommend Sean, Jordan, John and the rest of the Knibbe team.

Great honest service! We took two family cars in for a Fall check up. Randy phoned with recommendations for both vehicles and gave us time to decide as to the course of action. With our daughters 14 year old car we were expecting a laundry list of recommended repairs and were thrilled to hear the recommendations were minimal and that her car is ‘mechanically sound’. A recommendation of a new battery was all that was needed. Upon pick up of our vehicles, Randy showed us the parts they replaced and educated us in the process. The price quoted was the price we paid.Thank you Knibbe for your honesty, diligence and super professional staff!

Literally. In 2016, we expanded to include German Automotive Repair. All of our technicians are licensed, and they come from a wide variety of backgrounds. We have worked on all the cars that you have heard of and some you maybe haven't!
