Recently had a poor experience. Alan does not know how to talk to customers when there is a conflict. I left feeling upset, unheard and shook up. Alan was very rude. Will never go back.

We were on vacation in Bemidji, 8 hours from home, and we felt a vibration when we drove our car. So we made an appointment to have Kenny's run a diagnostic on it. They just drove the car, put it on the lift and told us our front brakes were bad. They could get the parts and fix it for $935. They made an appointment which I canceled shortly afterwards. We drove the car home and took it to our own mechanic as well as the dealership and both told us the brakes were fine. Shame on Alan for trying to scam us so far from home. I would warn any vacationers to get a second opinion if they deal with Kenny's tire and service. In your reply you mention that we came in for a tire rotation and that the right tire wouldn't move and you showed my partner this situation. However , we had just put new tires on the car 2 days earlier and we didn't need them rotated. My husband wasn't there, he was on a bike ride. You must have us confused with someone else.

The staff takes pride in their work. They are friendly and customer orientated. My car needed a new ECM and they went above and beyond expectations. Giving me discounts on warranties and always keeping me informed. Car troubles are never fun, but they made it easy.

My vehicle had stopped working altogether, and I'd arranged early in the morning with Kenny's to work on it, once I'd had it towed in to them. But the tow company was having its own problems, and didn't get my vehicle (and me) to Kenny's until eight minutes before Kenny's closed! Nevertheless, before I knew it, Kenny's had pulled my car into one of the service bays for the night and given me a loaner car to use instead, since I was then without transportation. The next morning, before I was even out of bed, Kenny's left a message that my vehicle was finished, and that I could come pick it up. They had made an astute diagnosis, the fix had been simple, and the cost was minor. Many thanks to you, Al, and the team at Kenny's: you saved me an enormous amount of time, money, and angst!

I had A+ service. It was my first time ever going here and I’ve never had a better experience at any other place. They have the nicest workers and they got me in and out quicker than I could have ever imagined.

Went to Kenny’s for a tire alignment. It took almost three hours (got there at one left around three thirty) for them to do the alignment, they did have to replace a bolt but the three hours was a bit of a wait just for an alignment.. I had no other transportation so I had to sit there. Very friendly people so it wasn’t terrible sitting there. Once my alignment was done they test drove it, told me everything was fine and I paid (186$)and left, as I was driving home I noticed my steering wheel was off centered towards the right. Then as I was driving I noticed the steering wheel would correct it’s self center and my car would pull to the right as it corrected itself. As I would drive it would switch back and forth, from being crooked to straight again, pulling me each time then straighten back out. If I took a right turn it was worse. I called Kenny’s as soon as I noticed it doing it, they told me since it was almost closing time to come back in tomorrow as soon as I can and they will test drive it again. I went back the next morning and rode with the guy so I could explain what was going on. I could visibly see my car doing it and he tells me it was the wind, or the curve of the road, or the ruts of the highway. Even said to me that I just wasn’t used to the alignment so I am over correcting as the car is more sensitive because it drives straight now. I tried to ask why the steering wheel was crooked and he told me it wasn’t and made up other excuses. At that point I knew I wasn’t getting anywhere and left thanking him for checking it out. I called and made an appointment with a different mechanic for a second opinion. I went in and he test drove it and immediately noticed the issue. Turns out my Electric power steering system was not aligned with the tire alignment and was correcting itself to center knowing it’s supposed to be there but because it wasn’t aligned with the tires it would go right back crooked. He fixed it the best he could but recommend I go and get my alignment checked again because it’s still slightly off and have them make sure it gets aligned together. I will not be going back to Kenny’s again. I shouldn’t be paying another mechanic to fix what they should have, and for not listening to me telling them what I know isn’t normal for my vehicle. Three hours for my alignment to be completed, 186 dollars later and it wasn’t even done correctly. I had to pay another mechanic to fix what they did wrong and now have to pay again for a new alignment. I will not be recommending Kenny’s to any one I know.

Oh my goodness! I cant explain how happy and comfortable I was when I first walked in. I set an appointment online, got a call back on a weekday to inform me a day will be a available and it was like dropping my car off at a relatives house. Awesome service. Will be coming back for all my auto issues!

Respectful and quickly convenient service! Alan at Kenny's talked with me about my car and driving, found great tires at a great price, and got me in quickly so it felt like I had no inconvenience at all from a flat tire. Service was great, on time, and really helpful. I definitely recommend Kenny's to others in the area looking for auto service in a respectful and safe spot in Bemidji.

I can not say enough positive things about this incredible place! This family run business, since 1954, was such a bright spot in what could have been a bad day. Everyone was incredibly helpful, kind, and willing to answer all of our questions. They were thorough when inspecting the tires and the van and explaining what was needed to get the van on the road again. On our recent road trip we ended up needing 4 new tires for our rental van. It was not what we expected but they took care of us in a timely manner. They didn't have the tires so they went out of their way to go pick them up! Who does that these days?! We were blown away by their kindness and willingness to help. They were super busy and managed to fit us in and get us back on the road. This shop has wonderful family pictures on the wall and pictures showing the history of the shop and the family. It was incredible. We of course had questions and even though they were packed, father and son took time out of their day to explain the history to us and chat with us about their families. Such a personal touch! On another note, THEY PUMP YOUR GAS AND CHECK YOUR OIL! It was like stepping back in time. It was so wonderful. I can not recommend this awesome little shop enough. Even if you just need gas please stop in because it is such an awesome experience. I can't thank them enough for taking care of the van and getting my family back on the road safely!
