"Mark and the staff always take care of me."

"Genuinely the kindest, most knowledgeable, most trustworthy mechanic shop I’ve ever been to. Can’t say enough good things. For years, our family has relied on them for honest work at honest prices. With independent mechanics, trust is crucial, and Harapat has proven themselves again and again. Most of the times we’ve come in have been for issues that seemed like they were going to be a lot of trouble- but the Harapat guys diagnose the problem with expert accuracy and fix it as fast as possible every time. They truly care about the health and safety of a vehicle. Trusted for decades by the Iowa City car community, and it isn’t hard to see why. Don’t get scammed at a dealership or some random shop. Bring your business to the good folks at Harapat!"

"This is truly a GREAT Auto Repair Shop. You could not ask for a more competent, professional, and honest group of auto service professionals. I have been going to Harapat for my auto service needs since 2004. Harahan Auto Service is truly Plato's idea of an Auto Service establishment."

"I’ve been taking my vehicle to Harapat for a few years now for my regular oil changes all the way to some big repairs and they always do an excellent job! Their customer service is unmatched and they’re always honest about what’s going on with your vehicle, which isn’t always the case in the auto repair industry. Would highly recommend!!"

"We have been bringing our cars here since the mid80s when they were downtown. At one point, when we had teenagers, we had 5 old cars going and Harapat Auto (used to be Lovetinsky's) kept all our cars running beautifully. We never had to bring our cars back for the same problem because they always fixed it the first time. Still is true today. They are very friendly, hardworking, knowledgeable and honest, and that is hard to find in a business today. When our kids are in town, they still bring their vehicles here, even though they live in a different state! Can't recommend this business highly enough!"
