Buddy’s shop is legit!! He replaced my ball joint, and I was in and out of the shop under 30 minutes. I’ll be back!

I am extremely happy with Buddy's shop. I had to change my breaks and when my brakes were off-market, he helped me choose the correct ones and fix them too. He was very patient and communicative, offering solutions every step of the way. Lakisha is very friendly and outgoing and made my wait enjoyable, she is great! It was a great environment and I felt comfortable. The pricing was affordable and upfront, which I always appreciate. I highly recommend them, you will not be disappointed.

I was going on a road trip and they provided free road trip checks. Everything was free and when they noticed a faulty tire pressure sensor, they replaced it for a reasonable price too. Everybody was super cool and polite. Buddy was really nice and respectful while Jake did a great job on the service. Definitely recommend, 10/10.

I went in to buddys today for a couple of used tires to get me thru until the rest of the work on my car was completed. Buddy was amazing and worked with me while taking in consideration my needs and budget. Their shop has a cozy waiting room and I felt completely comfortable being there alone which I haven’t really felt that way at any other shops I have been to. Buddy made my entire day and I am so grateful that I found him. Thank you!!

Could not have had a better experience at this shop!!! The mechanics were knowledgeable, the prices were reasonable, and they operated with integrity and a high quality of work. We just moved out here and were in a pickle with our car- they saw us the same day and absolutely relieved all our stress!!! They were SO nice and did a phenomenal job. I 100% will be coming here for ALL my future needs! I’ve worked with MANY rude/ dishonest shops in the past, and this one absolutely took all my concerns away from minute 1 with how much integrity they showed. Such a sweet shop!!

Bud was more than helpful and very knowledgeable. Had my tire patched, re mounted, and balanced faster than we were expecting 10/10 recommend!

First visit to Buddy's Automotive and it was really a pleasure working with someone that was super friendly and knowledgeable. The owner answered all my questions and completed an oil change & tire rotation on my Nissan Kicks so promptly. Really seemed like they respect and care about their customers. While I don't love taking my vehicle in for maintenance, thanks Buddy's for a pleasant experience.

Quality service at a great price, would 100% recommend 👍🏽

Buddy made every effort and found a very small nail in my tire that a Big shop (of a membership store) was unable to. Low, reasonable prices. I recommend this shop.

Great service, very honest mechanic. Will be visiting Bud for more services. Thank you.

This place is a little gem! I was referred by a friend and I am so grateful. The owners are very honest and though they may not do big mechanic jobs they can definitely help you in letting you know what you would need to repair if you have any questions about your vehicle go see them! I will definitely be back for tires and brakes. Thank you Buddy!

With my experience with other mechanics, I was not sure what to expect. I was more than happy with Bud. He explains the issues, gives recommendations, and available options. He tries to save you money while also getting the best quality parts for your car and budget. He makes sure that you get the best care and he goes above and beyond in providing excellent service. I can honestly say that with Bud, you are in good hands. He is dependable and someone you can trust! Thank you, Bud!
