🎩 A new sign… and the end of an old chapter.

For decades, people in Council Bluffs have known Mad Hatter for mufflers, brakes, and exhaust — and while we’re still proud to do all of that, we’ve grown into so much more.

Today, we are a full-service auto repair shop, providing everything from maintenance and diagnostics to brakes, suspension, heating and A/C, electrical work, engine repairs, and more.

So seeing this new sign finally go up feels pretty special. It represents where Mad Hatter has been, but even more importantly, where we are now.

After years of waiting and working through city requirements, our new Council Bluffs sign is officially up. 🙌

A huge thank-you to Jimmie at SignOvation for making the signs and getting them installed for us. They turned out fantastic.

🎒 School might be back in session… but summer isn’t over quite yet! ☀️🚗

If you’re squeezing in one last road trip for Labor Day weekend, now is a good time to make sure your vehicle — and especially your tires — are ready for the miles ahead.

Highway speeds, summer heat, extra passengers, and luggage can all put added stress on your tires. And just because they look okay doesn’t always mean they are.

At Mad Hatter Auto Repair Council Bluffs, our Road Trip Vehicle Inspection takes a closer look at things like:

🛞 Tire pressure & tread depth
🛞 Uneven or unusual tire wear
🛞 Cracks, bulges, or visible damage
🔧 Brakes, fluids, belts & hoses
🔋 Battery condition
…and more.

Before you load up the car, hit the highway, and make a few more summer memories, let us take a look at your vehicle.

📢WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

The greatest compliment we can receive isn't just a five-star review—it's earning someone's trust year after year.

Savita has trusted our Council Bluffs Mad Hatter team since 2023, and her words perfectly describe the experience we strive to provide every day. ⬇

"Extremely satisfied with the service here. We all have busy lives, but this repair shop does the heavy lifting for you. Whether it's a full inspection or an oil change, Mad Hatter Auto delivers exceptional service by providing transparency at each step in the process.

Not everybody gains a thorough understanding of automobile knowledge in their day-to-day, but this shop addresses each question or concern you may have with clarity. Their electronic history of previous visits provides great assurance, because car maintenance requires organized systems to help mitigate costs over the long term.

Professionalism means working with the customer, which is exactly what they do. Large dealerships spend a fortune on comfy seats...but Mad Hatter gets you back out there safely! Proud customer since 2023!"

Savita, thank you for your continued trust and for allowing us to care for your vehicle over the years. Reviews like yours remind us why we love serving the Council Bluffs community. ❤️

🥵 It's HOT out there... and your car knows it.

With today's extreme heat, your cooling system is working overtime every time you drive.

If you've noticed:
🌡️ Your temperature gauge creeping higher than normal
💨 Steam coming from under the hood
💧 A sweet smell or coolant leaking under your vehicle
🚨 A temperature or coolant warning light

Don't ignore it.

Most overheating problems start as something small—a leaking hose, worn water pump, failing thermostat, or low coolant. Catching those issues early can help prevent major engine damage and a much more expensive repair.

🔥 Before this heat wave turns into a breakdown, make sure your cooling system is ready.

📖 We'll post a recent blog in the comments if you'd like to learn the common causes of overheating and what warning signs to watch for.

Stay cool out there Council Bluffs! 😎🚗

🤔 Ever wonder why we send you all those photos after you leave your car with us for service?

It's because we believe you should see what we see. 👀

Every vehicle that visits Mad Hatter Auto Repair receives a complimentary Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI) performed by one of our ASE-certified technicians, like Master Technician Kevin, pictured below.

Whether you're here for an oil change, brakes, or a check engine light, we document your vehicle with photos, notes, and measurements so you can make informed decisions—not just take our word for it.

It's all about helping catch small concerns before they become big, expensive surprises.

Transparency. Education. Honest recommendations.
That's the Mad Hatter difference. 🎩

🔥 Seeing your car's temperature gauge creep higher than normal?

An overheating engine can be caused by low coolant, a leak, a failing water pump, thermostat issues, or other cooling system problems. The sooner it's checked, the better your chances of avoiding a bigger repair.

If your vehicle has been running hot, let our ASE-certified technicians here in Council Bluffs take a look. 👀
