I had trouble with my car starting and did not know what the problem was then it reached the point where it wouldn’t start at all. No one that I had taken my car to be repaired to before was available, but I had heard so many good things about Ulmers that I decided to call them, I had my car towed down to their shop and I did not have an appointment but they were kind enough and good enough to find out what the problem was and take care of the situation. They were very courteous and the waiting room was very clean . I would definitely think about having them service my car again , the one that I took my car to in Southgate Kentucky

Ulmer's did an excellent job of repairing my son's car. An additional issue came up & Adam went above & beyond to help us resolve that too. They were helpful, quick to respond to our questions & overall very easy to work with AND the car looks great again.

Had my first experience with Ulmer's Auto Care and I couldn’t be happier! They were incredibly professional, fast, and kind. Christian not only drove me home but also picked me up when my car was ready—such a thoughtful gesture. They fixed my AC in just a few hours and at a really reasonable price. With this crazy heat, I’m so grateful to have my cool air back! Highly recommend!

It was our first time with Ulmer’s and it did not disappoint! Kept us in the loop and discussed repairs before fixing. We would like in the future to get pricing before approving the work. We were shocked to receive a bill for $1,245!

When Ulmers bought out Waldenmeyers I was a little skeptical if I would get the same kind of great and honest service as I had for years. After my recent repair (fuel injectors needed to be replaced) there was a grinding noise that began when I got my car back. Eddie drove around with me, heard the noise, and was able to get it fixed without any charge. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else.

Value priced oil change is what my mom gave me a coupon for, drop off before 9 am, will call. I am so glad I did it, spent a day with my mom and found a new auto specialist shop that I can trust. . Easy drop off, text message check ins, when they do diagnostic checks. Didn’t try to sell me a bunch of add-ons, talked to me about my car’s overall health….what to do, & look for. This shop has earned my trust, I wasn’t expecting that for a value priced oil change. They helped me clear all the dashboard lights off of my 2012 Toyota, for $900 less than another shop quoted me( my tire light was on because of a dead battery, the other shop told me I just need to change them all at $179/each…Ulmers pinpointed which one, and changed it for $140-ish). I feel heard. Definitely will make my #1 choice for routine maintenance, and honest advice.

I recently visited Ulmers to have my car looked at and couldn't be happier with the service. The team was straightforward, trustworthy, and incredibly efficient. They explained everything clearly, didn't try to upsell unnecessary services, and got my car back to me in no time. I'll definitely be taking my vehicle to this shop from now on. Highly recommend!

I've been going to Ulmers Southgate for the last 2+ years. And they are excellent in assessment, repair, communication and customer service. Eddie and Jeremy and crew have really been good to us, whether it be general maintenance, all the way up to a more complex repairs of our vehicles. I always appreciate their expertise, friendliness and service. They take time to explain and make sure the job is done thoroughly and with high quality. Thank you guys and your whole team, for all the great work you've done for us, and for treating us, as a valued customer.
