Car repair in Duluth since 1991, by experts who know foreign cars

“A very difficult job involving searching for parts and information carried out perfectly.”

“Really appreciated positive interaction and expertise to get my car back on the road to continue my travels with confidence.”

“Very efficient, they follow through with what the cost would be to complete the job.”

“Good, honest and knowledgeable people.”

“Followed through on a repair that needed tweaking. That's good service.”

“Prompt and efficient brake check while also looking into a more generic sound I described in a thorough matter. Always friendly and honest!”

“Independent shop with years of experience and great service.”

“Professional and personable. Jeff and Andrew are welcoming and address any concerns.”

“Great quality and customer service!”

“We are always in good hands at Foreign Affairs!”

“Always treat us well and don't try to oversell stuff we don't need.”

“I've been a customer for many years. The service always is excellent!”

“Professional, high quality services.”

“This is our favorite shop. They are honest and reliable. My old car is doing great under their great work.”

“I had my oil changed. Good service.”

“Always extremely helpful and thorough.”

“Kept us appraised of the work required and timeline.”

“Always honest and helpful. Tells me exactly what I need and don't need done. When a sensor told me to check brakes, they said the pads were worn to about 20% but it could be driven safely for a while yet. I chose to replace them now. The price I pay is never more than the estimate unless they talk to me first. They stand behind their work. For example, I had them mount winter tires on a set of used wheels. When a bead leaked they remounted the tire at no charge. They didn't blame the problem on used tires or wheels, which is probably the cause. They just made sure it would hold air.”

“I've been doing business with Foreign Affairs for over 50 years (1967 TR-4A, 1974 TR-6, 1992 Audi and a 2014 Mercedes E350) and the service was excellent.”

“Great service at convenient time.”

“They know their craft. They stand behind their work. They spend time explaining what they worked on. They are fair. They keep a record of my car maintenance and recommend work that will extend the life of my car. I would recommend them to anyone and won't trust anyone else with my car.”

“Pleasant employees, timely service, comparable prices, convenient location.”

“Excellent service! Great personnel, mechanics, and personal follow up on my car's issue.”

“Always helpful and friendly.”

“Always great service. Thank you.”

“I liked everything about the service. I gave them 5 stars because they listened to my concerns and acted on solutions. As a woman in this world of autos, it is nice to be treated like I can understand a thing or two about car maintenance.”

“Friendly and thorough service!”

“It was a busy day at the shop! That said, I was still promptly kept in the loop on progress, and the work was done within the hour, as promised. Thank you!”

“The communication from the team was phenomenal. Service was timely and on point.”

“Great folks and service. Did what I wanted, without doing too much.”

“Company was honest and I feel fair priced. They did what they said they would do and had it done when they said it would be done. We have no issues after getting the car back and would highly recommend them to anyone.”

“HONESTY. Jeff tells me what needs to be done and charges fairly for the work. Even better, he will tell me what doesn't need to be done. I recently had rear brakes replaced on my GTI. At 160,000 miles the work was due. At the same time I asked they check the clutch. The clutch pedal engages higher than it did 100k ago. They could have told me it needed to be replaced. Instead Jeff test drove the car and said the clutch was performing great and my car was in good condition.”

“Prompt attention to customer and very good service.”

“High quality service, knowledgeable.”

“I've been taking my car to Foreign Affairs as long as it has been in business. Their work is top quality. Any part they have to replace they show me the worn part and explain why it had to be replaced. Jeff has unmatched knowledge of vehicles and customer service.”

“Professional, skilled, friendly, timely. Foreign Affairs has been taking excellent care of my cars for thirty years.”

“For the past 15 years, we have had several vehicles serviced at Foreign Affairs and always to our satisfaction.”

“Jeff and his staff are very knowledgeable as well as friendly. Great work and fast service as well. Recommend to anyone in the Duluth MN area.”

“Always high quality service at Foreign Affairs!”

“Professional, honest and service oriented. Thanks.”

“Friendly, professional, helpful and sustainable. What's not to like?”

“Very courteous and gave updates on the progress. Another part was needed that they couldn't get that day, so they had me come back. I live three hours away. They didn't charge me for the extra part labor. Will definitely use them again.”

“They always take great care of my Mini!”

“Personable. Went the extra mile. Knew what they were doing.”
