As a woman seeking car repairs they don’t rip you off. They are very friendly. Love Justin and Megan. So does my dog, Peanut. Meagan always has freeze dried and healthy treats for your puppy. They are the cleanest car shop I’ve ever been to. Love you all

Advantage Automotive is the best auto service & repair shop I've ever encountered in the states and in Japan and West Germany. Not only do they do the jobs right the first time the people are friendly and a pleasure to do business with. Prices are reasonable. I recommend them without reservation. Give them a try!

Excellent and very knowledgeable staff combined with great quality and the cleanest shop around. We take our 3 vehicles to get serviced here. Plus, they are pro veteran.

Moved here from Las Vegas Nevada. I chose this place because of the reviews. Good thing I did couldn’t ask for a more honest business. My Lexus was misfiring they diagnosed it and fixed it. No problem. You bet. I will be bringing my car back in the future for further work.

Advantage Automotive has been fantastic! I stopped going to the dealerships for any and all maintenance on my vehicles due to incompetence. Advantage Automotive has fair pricing, knowledgeable technicians, and they truly care about getting it right! They do my oil changes regularly, diagnosed issues when my check engine light came on randomly, added air to my tires when that light comes on, and can even replace your tires if needed! Advantage automotive is truly a one stop shop for keeping your vehicles going! Thank you James, Meghan, Justin and team at Advantage ❤️

I found advantage auto on the internet with good reviews Man did they live up to them!!!!! Try them and see for yourself They kick ass!!!!!!!!!


Oct 07, 2024

I've been a faithful customer of Advantage Automotive for over 5 years. They are always polite and friendly, but most importantly they keep my vehicle running efficiently. I finally persuaded my daughter to take her Fusion in to assess a reoccurring catalytic converter issue. She soon discovered the 'Advantage' of taking her car to Advantage Automotive! The Fusion was not a lemon🍋, the other mechanic? 🤔. We all depend on our vehicles to provide reliable transportation and a fair, honest mechanic is imperative! I couldn't recommend Advantage Automotive more!


Oct 07, 2024

Great service and customer care. As an old car guy, and a clean freak I really like the cleanest shop I have ever seen. I noticed the personable, friendly and respectful staff. Very Honest, great communication and educated explaination of options for my A/C problems that I could not fix myself with super fast one day only turnaround time. Great Oil change also with extra care for correct Oil viscosity and the Oil Filter care that I requested. Very Professional and have earned my business.
