Automotive Specialists

Brian is an intelligent, honest mechanic who fixed my car for a fair price. He'll tell you the truth whether he's the guy for job or will recommend somewhere else to go.

Back in September I needed new brakes and tires on my VW, but one of my locking lugs was stripped. The VW dealership was going to charge me a LOT to remedy this issue, then I was recommended to Automotive Specialists by word of mouth. These guys took on the challenge of getting the bolt off and getting me out the door with new tires and brakes at a very reasonable price. They literally saved me hundreds of dollars that I would have spent at the dealer (nothing against VW, but they were going to make me get a whole new locking key $$$$). They went the extra mile and scheduled me at the right time to qualify me for a rebate, found the best prices on VW parts, and kept me updated the whole time, as it was an ordeal just finding someone who would address the locking lug. It was a pleasure working with them, and I will do it again in the future. Thanks guys!

Called in to talk with them about issues on my car they were very rude on the phone didn’t even get to tell them what was wrong with my car when they told me they couldn’t help me and abruptly hung up the phone call back to see why and the man told me he was too busy to talk to me if I was you I would not use this place they are totally unprofessional and extremely extremely rude

Showed up to buy an intake that I asked about yesterday and this morning, offered to send PayPal or Venmo to pay immediately when Lori told me it was available, she declined and said she had some family things to do, and to be there at 5, when I show up nobody is there and Lori will no longer return messages, I go to see if anyone is inside and the UNLOCKED DOOR sets off the alarm ! 20 minutes later Lori messages me and says someone showed up before me and says sorry that I wasted a trip all the way across town. What a low down rotten dirty rotten way to conduct business. Apparently I wasn’t the only victim.

Took our F150 in for manifold. Not only did they fix that but found some other issues that could be fixed but wasn't necessary at that time. No pressure and quality work at a decent price.

An awesome honest car repair shop. Won't charge for extraneous repairs and will call if they find something that should be addressed other than what the vehicle was brought in for. Trustworthy.

Brian was extremely accommodating for a seal that needed to be replaced. The issue was diagnosed quickly, part ordered and problem fixed before the end of the day. I was happy that it was a fast and inexpensive fix, but I now I'm glad to know where to go should something more complicated occur.

My family and I have taken several vehicles here. Their name matches them well...they are truly Specialists. They always keep a budget in mind and call you before they do any work that was not part of the initial estimate. They don't try to upsell you on ridiculous charges for inspecting the OBD computer of your car as I've gotten while going to other shops. I've always gotten the experience that these are mechanics that KNOW what they are doing and they aren't learning how to fix stuff with your vehicle, which is something that I've sadly gathered from other places while spending a good amount of money. As long as Automotive Specialists keeps open, I have peace of mind that I know that any issue that I have with our vehicles, a fix is not far. It is a bit of a drive for us, but we don't mind. I always recommend this place to people in need of competent Automotive mechanics.

Very caring staff -- came in with concerns with my car running sluggishly. Brian checked my oil, and taught me how to do it myself for the next time. Will definitely be back next time I have car concerns!

FANTASTIC service!!! My check engine light was on, I was on a budget, and I was preparing for a 500 mile drive. The Automotive Specialists understood my situation, quickly fixed my car, and did everything with a budget in mind. Quality reliable service and people! Will definitely be going back for any automotive needs!
