Went to another shop where they said my car was not fixable and needed a new one. Peak Performance saved me and was able to get my car back on the road with a reasonable price.

Good shop. Ray's helped me in rough patches multiple times when my car broke down. Also top tier service to Amanda for giving us a ride back home when my family and I needed one.

I love this shop. Ray has helped me out a few times now, he's super quick, thorough, and generous. I won't go anywhere else for car maintenance. Couldn't recommend enough!!

Thank you so much to Ray and his team! They are always so efficient, and polite. New tire? Done. Oil change? Done. Whatever you need, he’s got it. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.

This shop doesn't want your business. Unless they can take you for $1000, they're not interested. You can literally go ANYWHERE ELSE in Kansas City and get work done for less. Do yourself a favor and pass this place up.

I had a good experience here. Had a thief try to get into my car and only succeeded in ruining the driver's side door handle and lock system. Took my vehicle here to have them do the work of disassembling my door, removing the window, and reconnecting the door handle lock system. The total cost for all services was $350, which was more than reasonable. The work done was quality. I will use this shop again should I have a need.

I was told my car needed brake pads but the guy could not tell me what they measured at. Most likely indicated for unnecessary repair. Stay away.


Feb 06, 2024

Kind of surprised that the reviews aren't higher here. I've always had great experiences... never felt like I was getting fleeced or sold things I didn't need, always felt like work was done correctly, and have always been impressed with the customer service. Ray, the owner is understanding about costs and has never tried to sell me something I don't need, and he is very clear about what things he think can wait for a while but telling you to keep an eye on them. Seems like a very nice guy. Been going here for years, and have never once felt like I needed to get a second opinion, or like work wasn't done correctly.

Super disappointed in this place. For being a reputable place that many many recommended, they tried to WAY overcharge me for not only things my car doesn’t even need replaced, but about $4k over what a new a/c compressor would have actually cost. Ended up charging me $200 for a diagnostic check, which is fine, but the last $200 this place will ever get from me and anyone I know. Needless to say, get a different opinion before letting this place have the okay to do anything to your car. Trying to scam a new female customer, wish I could say I’m even slightly surprised.


Feb 06, 2023

I was recommended the shop by a coworker to get my rear wheel bearings replaced. Ray was very helpful and was able to get the service I needed quickly and at a great cost. I would recommend this shop to others in the future.


Feb 06, 2023

Ray and his team are THE best. I just really appreciate a car place that doesn't make women feel stupid, nervous or vulnerable in any way. Ray has always just put me at ease, and does a good honest job at the various repairs and tune-ups he's done for our family vehicles. Great communication. Great prices. Really trust them.


Feb 06, 2023

Very Friendly. No pressure for unnecessary repairs or extra add ons


Feb 06, 2022

Fast, friendly, and knowledgable! No complaints whatsoever.


Feb 06, 2022

I went in and my vehicle failed inspection. I called around for other quotes and was told one of the things I was failed for might not actually be something I could be failed on. I called to confirm why they failed me on that part, and before I could even ask the question he said it's on the receipt. When I tried to ask my question he again interrupted and talked down to me about how it's rude for me to call when he has other customers. If I were asked a bit more polite call back later I wouldn't have an issue. The fact that he interrupted me and talk down to me I feel was disrespectful.


Feb 06, 2022

Ray and Melissa were nice from the start. This was my second time going to this shop and I am very pleased with the work done on my wifes Ford Focus. They put the alternator in quickly and informed me in detail about my car and what needed to be done. Ray was honest with me about price from the start and he didnt break our bank. For sure we will be returning!


Feb 06, 2022

Ray was extremely easy to work with. They figured out what was wrong with my car in a short amount of time, and got it fixed in a timely manner. I figured it would be an arm and a leg for the work that I need it done but they were actually very reasonable! Would definitely recommend.


Feb 06, 2022

The guys there were rude to me

I just found this business card. My daughter and I were traveling in January of this year. Her car messed up and we were a long way from north Carolina. NOT ONLY DID THE OWNER HELP US, he was extremely proficient and fair in his pricing. I explained that we had been traveling from Denver and just wanted to get home without paying for another hotel room. In other words, we were broke. The owner stated to bring the car over immediately, walk a block down and have lunch, (best wings I've ever eaten), come back and the car would be fixed!!! He stated he also had a daughter going to college in another state and he would hope someone would help her also. Not only did he fix the car to perfection, not only did he give us a fabulous price, he took us immediately!!! I recommend this establishment to anyone coming through this state. My thank you, again, for the fabulous service!


Feb 06, 2021

I've trusted Ray for many years and I refer everyone to him. His pricing is fair, he takes pride in his work, and is always clear on what works needs to be completed right away vs what can wait


Feb 06, 2021

Ray is a great honest guy, his quotes are fair and acurate. He does great work. Hes my favorite mechanic to go to. Im not going to pretend i know it all, but i got straight A's in my auto tech class in high school and im an avid shade tree mechanic. Ive always done my own work but there are some things i just dont have the ability to do or im not knowledgeable to do. I have trust issues when it comes to people working on my vehicles. I must say that Ray and the great folks at Peak Performance Auto have earned that trust. Ive even seen Ray just being a kind neighbor to an old lady who got a flat tire and who had cold groceries in her car. Ray got her spare on for her and had her all set really quick while he was in the middle of his work orders. Thats Kansas City love. Ray and Peak Performance Auto have helped me with my beater truck and getting it in great working order. Im very thankful for great quality work, honesty and a fair price. These guys are great in my opinion. As i write this review id like to give out my personal thank you. Thanks guys!

My experience here couldn’t have been any better. I came in to get a tire leak fixed and my right headlight replaced. They were extremely accommodating and were able to get me in and out within 45 minutes. They do fast and reliable work. I also had the pleasure of chatting with Ray for a bit. He’s a genuine person and I really enjoyed talking to him.


Feb 06, 2021

My state auto inspection was super quick and they were very helpful! My tires were bald, they ordered new ones and put them on same day. I will definitely come back again!


Feb 06, 2021

Ray and his crew are honest, courteous, and most importantly good mechanics. I use him for my commercial and personal vehicles. I’ve used many repair shops but have never been as confident and happy with the work Peak Performance Auto Repair performs.


Feb 06, 2021

Ray is efficient, pleasant, and fair. I never get upsold or offered things I don't need. He runs on time and usually well ahead of schedule. For clear communication, quick service, and a good price, this is the place!


Feb 06, 2021

Ray is straightforward and honest, offers a great value for the service, and had an amazing turnaround time.


Feb 06, 2021

We got a diagnostic check done, new valve cover and gasket, new air filter, spark plugs replaced and other tune up related fixes. I paid for the $755 repairs/tune up and later that same day started driving 5 hours west to see my family. 2 hours into the trip the engine light was on alerting us that the oil pressure was low and to stop the engine immediately (a warning I have never seen before). We popped the hood and there was oil all over the engine and the engine was steaming. This put us in a horrible situation because we were 2 hours from home and it was 8:30pm. We were stranded and completely at the mercy of anyone that could help us. A good Samaritan who happened to be a mechanic stopped to help us. He took a look at the car and went and bought the valve cover gasket we needed and made the repair to our car in the parking a lot. If it wasn’t for him we would have had to stay night in a hotel. He had to replace the ripped gasket that Peak Performance just installed in our car. I understand mistakes happen, but when we confronted Peak Performance Auto Repair they showed no empathy to our situation. This mistake left us stranded at night in a different town and could have ruined my engine if we had to drive on it any longer. After haggling him a bit he reimbursed us $125 for the part and labor. Which is fine, but like I said he had no empathy for the situation that his mistake put us in. He told us “Please, don’t come back.” This was very disappointing because it was his error and I had a very pleasant conversation with him before when I paid for the repairs. I realize small businesses have been hurting since Covid-19 has happened and would have loved to give him more business, since we live down the street, but I would not recommend this auto shop because of the lack of care he showed us as customers.

Will Rip you off while a smile on his face.


Feb 06, 2021

Worst auto shop experience ever!! The owner is a scammer, he will scam as much money out of you as he can.


Feb 06, 2020

Best inspection and turn around time I have ever experienced from any mechanic. Ray really knows his stuff!


Feb 06, 2020

Came to get my car inspected and Ray was very upfront and honest about what the car needed for inspection, what else could be done and how we could get it all done in a way that wouldn't break the bank. He got it done the same day and did a great job. Thank you guys very much! I really appreciate you all! I'll be coming back for more maintenance.


Feb 06, 2020

I went in for an inspection and was failed due a clear plastic cover over my tail light was broken. Took the car to the Missouri highway patrol motor vehicle inspection office and they passed the car. They told me the cover had nothing to do with the safety of the car. Waited a lot of time.


Feb 06, 2020

Was able to get prompt and efficient service from an experienced technician when other shops could not help me. I would recommend this shop to my Mom.


Feb 06, 2019

Ray was very professional, curtious, helpful and polite. I was in a bad situation with my breaks, i knew they needed replaced but didn't realize they where as bad as they where. They went from grinding a little bit to pretty much no breaks. I was at ward parkway mall when it happened with my 2 year old on a Fri at 230pm. I was freaking out, i had called everyone close by and noone could get it in til the next day or Sat. Execept Ray who was 1.1 mile away. I took it nice slow and easy and made it to him about 330pm. It needed nee rooters, pads, both front sides and front left caliber. He was able to get all the parts and work done by 5pm. And to top it off, i didnt have the money and he allowed my mom to make a 580 payment over the phone. If i was going to complain about anything it would be the price i thought was a little high but he did go above and beyond and my breaks are perfect now. Even tho the price is high i will return just because i believe he is honest and does good work
