Auto repair service questions, answered
How do I know which service my car needs?
Start with the symptom: noises, warning lights, vibrations, leaks, or just a service interval coming due. Describe what you notice when you call, and our technicians will inspect the car and confirm what it actually needs before any work begins.
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?
Call ahead is the best way to reach us at (954) 527-0942. We work Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and we will tell you honestly what to expect for timing.
Will I get a quote before any work starts?
Yes. We explain what your vehicle needs and what it costs before any work begins. If something is not broken, we will not try to fix it.
Do you warranty your work?
Warranty coverage varies by repair and part. We will explain the coverage on your specific repair before the work starts so there are no surprises.
Can I get same-day service?
Sometimes. It depends on the repair, our schedule, and parts availability. Call in the morning and we will give you a straight answer.
Do you do body work or paint?
No. We are a full-service mechanical repair shop – everything from diagnostics to brakes, A/C, maintenance, and engine work – but we do not do body work, paint, or detailing. If your car does not run, we can help arrange towing to the shop.
