Van Sweden Automotive

Adam and Wayne have been servicing multiple vehicles for us for many years. From oil changes to full engine replacements they are the best! Honest and integrity! I have recommended them to friends who have all been pleased and made them their service shop as well! Highly recommend. Worth a small drive even if you are not from the Portage area.

I cannot wait to pick up my vehicle tomorrow (timed deliberately) so that I can exchange my car for a thank-you lunch to express my gratitude to Adam and Wayne. Spend **more** than actually necessary?? A.BIG.BIG.YES! Believe me when I tell you: these guys are principled. They understand the value of doing things because it’s the right thing to do and for the sake of community. The single BEST marker for this? Other top-tier auto experts in the industry needing to offload business or consult with respected, trusted professionals – go to THIS father and son duo. I am so very glad to have the peace of mind Van Sweden’s is around the corner. Clearly I’ll be tireless with my recommendations to anyone and everyone that will listen to me talk about my excellent experience(s) with them. PS: all the good stuff you see on the other reviews? That too :)

My family and I have been bringing our cars to Wayne and Adam for several years now. They are honest and for the quality of work they provide, their prices are incredibly reasonable! As an added bonus they are both just great guys who work hard! Thanks for always taking such excellent care of us!!

I’ve been taking my vehicles to Wayne and Adam for a long time. They are so personal, friendly, honest and always professional. It is nice knowing I am not taken advantage of and these gentleman will make sure I am safe driving my vehicles. Trust no one else, stop in and see the real difference in automotive repair shops! You won’t be sorry!

Best auto shop I’ve ever been to. Adam is awesome and super friendly. They are very straight forward with what you need to get fixed. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the Kalamazoo/Portage area. I won’t be going anywhere else for automotive service. Plus the shop dog is super fluffy and adorable!

Greg got our car in asap and assessed the problems and called us right away. He also did the repair same day. We appreciate his hard and honest work.

As someone who knows a little bit more than the basics about a car it's really hard for me to take my car to most any shop. After a lot of work and advice from another shop I thought we had the problem pinpoint it down so after being recommended to take my car to these guys I did. I was prepared for the worst and these guys came through with the best case scenario possible for me aside from my car not being broke at all. They saved me a little more than half of what I was expecting to put into my car. I highly recommend bringing your car to these fellas. HIGHLY recommend. I have never been so pleased with taking my car to the shop in my entire life. Take your car to Van Sweden's automotive with complete confidence.

I have been a customer of Adam & Wayne Van Sweden for years and will continue to use their services and refer family & friends to them. They are very experienced in troubleshooting and fixing the problem correctly the first time. I can't say enough about the friendly and professional service that Van Sweden Automotive provides. I strongly recommend using them.

If you need a mechanic in the Kalamazoo area, I recommend Van Sweden Automotive! My check engine light had gone on and the dealership couldn’t get me in for 10 days. When I finally got in, they said it was the catalytic converter and would be over $2,000. I took it to Van Sweden’s the next day to have them check it and he said we would start with the O2 sensor, which would be under $200. He also said a catalytic converter would not cost over $2,000. Well, the Check Engine light has not been on since then (about 3 1/2 weeks) & my appointment is tomorrow. I just called and told them and he said there’s no point in coming to get it fixed if it isn’t broke. He’s out for the good of people and not for the money he can make! I will definitely be back when I need something else serviced on my vehicle!

BEST EVER. I have had my daughters car in and out of another shop for the same no start reoccurring issue. Finally, when "they" tried to tell me that the alternator was the problem, which I know has nothing to do with starting the car, just charging the battery, I looked for a new mechanic. Fortunately, I found Van Sweden Automotive. They found the problem, fixed the problem, and showed us the faulty part, which the other place had put in the car. Great service, Great pricing. VERY HAPPY.

I have been going to Van Sweden for the past year or so on a few of my vehicles. I typically have older vehicles with higher mileage and the guys at Van Sweden always are straight shooters with me about what needs to be done. I've been to other automotive repair shops in my day and I can say with confidence Van Sweden are solid mechanics with good fair pricing.

We have had nothing but a good experience with Wayne and his son Adam. They have been helpful and fair with us and appear to be mindful of our budget. They diagnosed a problem with our sons truck that another auto shop could'nt find. They have my business for al our cars!

I've only had positive experiences with Van Sweden auto. Their prices are more than reasonable, and repairs are done right and last. Honest to deal with too. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

VanSweden Automotive repaired
the brakes on my car today. Quality work, speedy service and fair price. Nice people, too! Highly recommend!

Honest and Outstanding. I went in for what I thought was going to be a whole new exhaust system. Instead Adam checked it out and determined he could fix it instead. He repaired it for a fraction of the cost and got me in and out. 100% I'll be going back for all of my automotive needs.

Adam and Wayne are top-notch and will receive my business and recommendations moving forward. Not only are they knowledgeable but even more important, they are honest! Thank you both!

Outstanding communication and went out of their way to complete the exhaust work on my Jeep in time for a trip up north. Looks and sounds great!

Had to bring my car in twice, both emergencies as I live out of town with a busy schedule. I have had nothing but great service with this place. They have saved my day a couple of times. Thank you.

Reliable service reasonably priced. I you're looking for honest and dependable automotive service this is where you'll find it. Have had all my service needs taken care of for years.

Wayne and Adam are the best. Professional, trustworthy, and care about their customers. Definitely recommend!!
