Monona Motors

Great place. They got me in right away, fixed may car quickly, and the prices were reasonable. They spoke TO me like an adult. Explaining the process. They didn’t talk down to me or make me feel like I was taking up their time. I’ll definitely go back.

Had an electrical problem with my beloved old Subaru Outback, so I took it in and chatted with John. He listened, then asked if I had recently taken it to the carwash. Yes. Then he showed me the button on the top of the steering column, which has something to do with the exterior lights — who knows what. John said when they wipe down the interior of the car at the wash, they had inadvertently pushed the button. Problem solved! No charge! Other shops would likely have socked me with a stiff fee to run diagnostics.
So I made an appointment for an oil change. Took «Ru» in and waited all of maybe half an hour. Quick, efficient and affordable. Greg even found a minor issue that might have developed into a problem. Maybe with their help, I can keep «Ru» on the road for another 150,000 miles.

Happy to echo the sentiments here — good, honest shop with fair prices.
No up-​sell here — I’ve actually had them tell me I didn’t need work after another shop tried to tell me I did. Keeps me coming back, for sure.
Awesome building, and historic — apparently, the city of Monona was founded there!

If you have time, grab an ice cream at the bait shop a couple of doors down, and wander over to the lake.

Don’t let the rough exterior fool you, but this place is great! John and his crew were very honest and personable. Would recommend without hesitation!

I have gone to Monona motors for 10 years+ with my cars. I have always been happy with the service, and the prices are unbelievably reasonable. If you’re in Monona, they’ll pick you up and drop you off as well.

Great work at a fair price. I recommend without hesitation.

I really trust the guys at Monona Motors. I feel that their prices are fair, and they will explain things in lay-man’s terms. I feel fortunate to have an honest, quality garage like this in my neighborhood.
