Made fun of my car because it appeared lowered and had side skirts, he then said “stupid side skirts” to me. Said my car couldn’t go on the lift and said I should go to jiffy lube, haven’t had issue anywhere else. Wouldn’t recommend especially for modified cars. Attitude on 10.

Excellent customer service, efficient and thorough. First time bringing my vehicle and definitely will be returning.  Had brake work done and feels like a brand new vehicle.  Thank you so much for such a fantastic job!  I highly recommend Family Auto Repair.

Brought in my other half's vehicle for a total brake job. Brakes are very smooth, like a brand new vehicle. Excellent service and good prices. I'm sure I will be bringing other vehicles here as well.

Every experience dealing with this shop has been above and beyond. I've taken all of my vehicles here for services big and small over the past 8 years and they've done the best at pricing repairs or services. No other shop compares in my area.

Our car broke down late at night, and all shops were closed. We were able to make an appointment online with Family Auto after hours for the next morning. He charged us $300 less than the estimate from another mechanic. Family-run shop, great explanation of what was wrong. The part we needed was 300 miles away, so he fixed the wire instead of replacing the part, which in the end was all that needed to be done to fix it. Not only did they save us money, they were so friendly and honest that I would recommend them to anyone! They are like mechanics used to be… figuring out what the problem is rather than how much they can charge you for. Amazing service! Bonus if you speak Italian! 😂

Found out my brake lights werent working and this was recommended to me by the Auto Parts store. Drove up and they were able to go right to work. After about an hour, it was fixed -- for a very reasonable price.

Brought my truck to Family Auto thinking I needed a new wheel bearing but it turned out to be a faulty tire. The guys at Family Auto were honest and upfront. I highly recommend them for any auto repair you have. They definitely saved me money. I m confident that had I brought my truck to some other repair shop they might have just replaced my wheel bearings without finding the real issue.
