They are professional, willing to help, and though they were busy they took My car and did the service at day


Oct 31, 2024

Nick at the front is always super friendly and helpful. He helped me out by taking the time to explain the repairs needed and answering all my questions. I highly recommend University Automotive to anyone looking for reliable automotive service!


Oct 21, 2024

Grady helped me on my 2012 Corolla. He was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely return to him for my repair needs.

Great service every time. Always nice drivers when I need a ride. Reasonable prices. Trustworthy.

I highly recommend taking your vehicle to University Automotive, my service advisor Nick was able to get me in the same day my car was having issues, they were able to get my vehicle diagnosed and repaired quickly.

Nick is the nicest most professional dude I've ever met highly recommend.

Grady, was so helpful and honest when it came to giving me prices and what my car needed fixing on and amazing service!


Oct 21, 2024

Great service, prompt! Ask for Grady, he’s the best!!


Oct 21, 2024

Great shop with effective communication, Grady was a big help in telling me what was wrong with my car, and how to fix it up!


Oct 21, 2024

Had gone to the dealer for years and got to know Grady Dillon. When I learned he moved to University Automotive we followed him there. Had my car there for an AC problem and they fixed quickly!


Oct 21, 2024

I always know I can count on University Auto. Even when I need emergency service, their team goes the extra mile to get me back on the road. Nick is a rock star! Thanks!!


Oct 21, 2024

My overall experience last week was perfect! Grady Dillon has been my service advisor for about a decade now. My cars and I follow him wherever he goes (yes, he’s that great! 😆). He always provides the best advice and ensures you’re taken care of. While no one enjoys hearing the “bad news” about their vehicle, Grady has a unique way of making the information digestible in his delivery. As car repairs can be pricey - I appreciate his integrity re: some things needing immediate attention while other things are necessary, but could wait. I’m grateful to have someone in the car service industry that I can trust with recommendations especially have little to no car knowledge. Lastly, the quick shuttle service provided by University Automobile was also an added bonus to the overall experience. Thanks again!!


Oct 21, 2024

Nick and Grady are the best go see them for anything you need they will get you taken care of with no issues highly recommend. Top notch customer service


Oct 21, 2024

Nick is the best worker and always provide excellent service. Also they give ride back home.


Oct 21, 2024

Nick was amazing help me get my truck on the road I recommend these guys hundred percent. G


Oct 21, 2024

Quick and responsive. Pro shop. Grady is a fine fisherman.


Oct 21, 2024

This place gets you with coupons for reasonable service then they find things "wrong" with your vehicle. Before you know it you're paying $1000s for work you probably don't need.


Oct 21, 2024

We brought our vehicle into University Automotive for an oil change given its ratings and coupons in the mail. A few months later, our engine started making horrible noises and felt like it was underpowered and "dying," for lack of a better word. We then discovered that the oil level was extremely low to the point that the dipstick was scorched. University Automotive failed to fill our oil tank all the way. We were lucky to catch it in time. The engine could have literally blown up as we were driving the car, not to mention the damage it has likely caused. Maybe our experience was unusual, but we literally could have died from their negligence. Totally unacceptable. We will be filing a complaint with the appropriate authorities.


Sep 21, 2024

Took my car there for service was helped by an advisor named Nick who was very friendly and communicated with me to make sure my issue was resolved. The turn around time was also really fast. They also offer shuttle services and overall a great shop I’d recommend to anyone!


Sep 21, 2024

University automotive is the best shop. Kind, informative and quick.


Sep 21, 2024

overcharged for repairs and had to go to different shop to fix what they messed up. Joke of a place and buyer beware


Aug 21, 2024

Excellent customer service! Brought both my sons and my car to University and they did everything to get things right! University is my go to place and they treat you with respect and will pick you up and drop you off from home. Definitely can recommend!


Aug 21, 2024

It cost exactly what they quoted me for, didn't try to upsell me, and were great about working with my schedule. They even have their own shuttle service.


Jul 21, 2024

The mechanic didn’t have the properly skills to tell me what’s was going on with my truck. I researched the problem and fix. I was charged two diagnosis and charged a price that left my truck unfix. Never going there again. Some shop will milk you


Jul 21, 2024

Honestly, this place is pricey, and the way they explain things does add up correctly, but I just can't really justify the price just yet. If you can afford their price, I'd say go for it because you only have to pay after when they done the work.


Jul 21, 2024

It's my go to place for automotive service and repair work. Great work, fair prices.


Jul 21, 2024

Really good service here. They are just extremely expensive. I get my oil changed here and that's it. They do a good job and are extremely polite. They also offer to drive you to work if needed. If you're rich, you can trust your car will get repaired the right way. Otherwise I recommend just getting an oil change. Update: Originally I gave them 4 stars but after my review they sent me an email saying that my review negatively impacted them and their employees so they will no longer offer me services. I went down to 2 for lack of personalism. A business should be able to accept criticism as I gave them an honest review based on my experience and they couldn't take it. What hurts them is their pricing not a customers honest review and the fact that they can't take any constructive criticism. I would steer clear of this place and go to the many other professional shops in the area. If you do plan to come here, don't give them any negative feedback.


Jun 21, 2024

I can’t say enough great things about Nick! Above and beyond is an understatement. From the second, I walked in. I will be a customer for life!


Jun 21, 2024

This place is super friendly but out of my budget.. I would recommend them for sure.


May 21, 2024

They were fast and did a great job.
