Auto repair service near Sanford, FL

I HAD TO REPLACE THE SWAY BAR LINKS AND TIE RODS ON MY 2005 HONDA PILOT. I WENT SHOPPING AROUND AND FINALLY ENDED UP AT DAVE'S SHOP TO HAVE MY REPAIRS DONE. HIS FRIENDLY APPROACH AND COURTEOUS TECHS WERE VERY HELPFUL. MY BILL WAS LESS THAN HALF OF WHAT HONDA QUOTED ME ON LABOR COST. WITHIN TWO HOURS I GOT BACK MY VEHICLE WITH 100% CUSTOMER SATIFICATION. THANK YOU DAVE... I WILL REFER PEOPLE TO YOUR WORKSHOP ALL THE TIME. IMTIAZ

As always Tuffy Tire & Auto Service provides excellent service

Excellent Job and excellent price!!! They told and showed me what needed to be fixed on my Pontiac. Love the customer service and will def be back for any of my car needs.

Tire pressure light came on, so I took my car to the local Honda dealership. The dealership said a nail in both of my front tires was causing the tire pressure light to come on. They said one of the tires could be patched (for $25), but the other couldn't be patched & needed to be completely replaced (for $150). Not wanting to pay that much, I immediately took my car to this Royal One Tires shop, which was just 1/2 mile from the dealership. The nails turned out to be 2 tiny broken off screws; both of which were less than 1/2 inch long. Royal One removed the tiny screws & discovered that because they were so small, neither had punctured my tires. No air pressure whatsoever had come out of either tire, and both tires were perfectly fine. Nothing needed patching or replacing. They could have very easily told me the same thing the dealership told me & just offered to do the work for less. I would have probably been OK with that and had them do it. But they said they were more interested in earning someone's trust & hopefully getting a new steady customer, than they were in making a quick buck off someone dishonestly. I will be going back to them for all future tire needs. They now have a new, steady customer!

I was very happy with the service ,at first I was concerned to bring my car in. as a women you always think the worst that you are going to be taken advantage of .but this was not the case I was not sure of the noise coming from my car ,one shop told us it was are transmission so we took it to AAMCO I was greeted by roger one of the managers and he took my information and was offered a cup of coffee. he had told us that one of there certified technition will check are car and after 15 or so minutes we were told the noise we heard was are front brakes and that it was not are transmission. we were so happy that we did not have a huge cost of repairs ,thanks to roger and the honest way this automotive shop is run,they have made us a customer for life.

Great people, great work. Julio is the only one I let work on my truck except in the most desperate situations. He's worked on my truck for years and will continue to as long as I have it.

My first visit to this shop and everything is clean and organized. Hector, showed me exactly what was wrong with my car and gave me my options to fix the problems. Just based off my experience and Hector's knowledge of Hondas and Acuras, I can definitely recommend Hondapro.

We brought in a used vehicle we had just purchased because the gears were not shifting smooth and there was a troubling vibration at low speeds. The diagnosed the issue, added an additive that immediately resolved the issue and we did not get soaked on the cost. We truly appreciate the fact that we have been able to rely on Dealer Service Alternative team to be ethical, efficient, helpful and prompt. They are the best, and we won't trust anyone else with our cars!

Fantastic service replacing suspension on my 2013 Range Rover at one half the cost of dealer

I'm relatively new in the area, and needed to find a reliable automotive repair and service shop to help me with numerous issues that have been creeping up with my car recently. I had been noticing some issues with my suspensions, alignment, and some strange things happening with my engine, and since I'm not an expert, I needed a shop that would provide honest, friendly, and courteous service and wouldn't try to take me (and my wallet) for a ride. I was pleased when I called Car Port Specialist on a whim and had a pleasant conversation with them over the phone. They were patient with me and didn't talk down to me or make me feel small for not knowing exactly what the problem was. I came in the same day and they did some diagnostic testing, and I didn't even have to pay from the estimate. For me, this was big; other shops I called had no patience for me being unsure about the exact nature of the problem, and would have charged a substantial amount for the estimate. In the end, I was expecting the repairs to be more expensive than they were. Ultimately the engine issue was minimal, and the prices for everything were extremely fair. They were pretty quick with my car, and even gave me a ride home. Diana Spirelli

Went in to get a starter replaced. Great fair price and amazing mechanics. I used to own a mechanic shop that i sold and these people know what they are doing A++ -Tom

Luis Alverio is very personable young man, I had passed the service center on my way to and from work, and was in need of car repair to my tired, old plymouth duster. Something was wrong with the start up, engine didn't turn over the way it should, but the dash battery was ok. Bought it to a service station(will remain ananymous) who informed me it would cost about $600.00 apparently they said I'd have to replace the battery, and starter. Of course with an estimate that high, got a second opinion. Story short, Luis gave me instructions, and with the aid of auto parts store across the street got a free battery diagnostic, and for the price of a new battery (98.00+tx) my car has been starting up fine. That was three months ago, recently brought it in for a windshield wiper bushing replacement, thougth the estimate was a bit high, but had it replaced...found out the total was right on. Talked to a customer while it was being attended to, and she gave praise to the honest, reliable, service. I am recommending my son go there for a window repair...I feel they will charge him a fair price.

Excellent service. Excellent mechanic named Neil. He did a great job and was super polite.

I have been using Chris to maintain my BMW for the past couple of years, and he has been nothing short of a blessing to me. Sometimes I feel like he cares more about my car than I do. I am not in favor of going to the dealership, I feel as though I am overcharged for subpar service there. Id much rather have a personal touch any day. Outside of saving me money on regular maintenance items he was also able to resolve a long standing problem that the dealership wasn't able to properly diagnose. I'm pretty sure the dealership guys didn't lose any sleep when I said I cant afford anymore diagnosis without a solution, but Chris didn't give up until he resolved my issue. So, in my book he gets a grade A..I don't pay for customer service, I pay for honesty and reliable car repair...if I want a smile and a cup of coffee I will gladly go to Starbucks! If I want my BMW fixed right I will go to Bavarian Automotive!

Chris is the best. My wife was stuck in Orlando while moving our son to school there from Destin. Truck was loaded with stuff and it wouldn't crank. Called Chris and he assured me he would handle it and treat us right. I work on a ship and was in port up north so he was in contact over the phone. He stored the truck overnight in the shop to keep our stuff from getting wet due to thunderstorms. He assessed the issue in the morning and found nothing wrong. Truck ran fine for a day. Next day it happened again. Brought it in again at no charge per Chris and still couldn't find an issue. Truck runs fine now. Must have been a particle lodged in the system I assume. Chris was courteous, honest and only charged us for one hour labor plus the usual tax. I would recommend his shop to anyone. He even called the next day to see that my wife made it home. What shop does that anymore? Thank you Chris!

DO NOT USE IF YOU ARE LGBT+. This mechanic has amazing reviews on google and I have used them in the past with great results. But now that I am using them as a trans woman I can see the way they treat the LGBT+ community. I went for an oil change and got the car back with the splash guard dragging on the ground. They said they’d fix and convinced me to use them for tires and a new rear mirror also. When got it back from that two weeks later. The splash guard had been just removed without replacement and the front splash guard was now dragging. I was charged hundreds more for the tires than quoted and they won’t give me an invoice just a generic receipt. The rear mirror was never touched and was never told for two weeks while they had the car that they couldn’t get the mirror for my car. So over a month I barely had a car, spent over $3,000 and now I am missing a splash guard and the other is broken. Rear mirror is still broken. Only positive is an oil change and nice tires that where probably way over priced. Used this mechanic for 2 cars over 3 years and they have been amazing and the reviews everywhere are amazing. But then I walked in the door at a trans woman and that all changed.

Kaan the owner is dishonest, rude, and has no business acumen whatsoever. He owes me around $200.00 for work done to my scooter that did not repair it. And when I voiced my displeasure at his having had my scooter for a week, then giving it back to me still not fixed, he exploded, and accused me of insulting his business. This just after I had come back from KC from my mother’s funeral. He had me pay for the work first, then when it was discovered that it did not fix the scooter, he kept the money, and, after his business could not find the part they said it needed, I was told to find the part, and bring it in to have it installed, but they were keeping my money. Do business with this outfit at your own risk!

I recently bought a car for my son. When he test drove it, everything was fine and ran well. Within 20 minutes of driving the car home, the brakes started squeaking and making noise. There is an oil leak. The automatic doors/locks don't work. They advertised the car came with an alarm. There is none! I was never told there was an oil leak and the the brakes will need to be changed. My son was driving to school this morning and the car turned off on him, in the middle of the road!

This has got to be one of the worst auto shops of any kind. I went in to have my Jeep axles re-geared. They quoted me $1,238, which was the lowest price I found. But when I went to pick it up, they told me I owed over $1,800. There was no extra work, no unforeseen problems, no complications with the Jeep. They simply claimed they never quoted me $1,238 and had no idea where that figure came from (of course, they had zero notes from the phone call or a written price estimate anywhere). I reluctantly paid their price because I had no choice. I was told that to get their 1-year/12,000 mile warranty on the work, I'd have to return and have the gear fluid changed after 500 miles. I did so, only to find out this cost another $153. How clever... they only honor their work with a warranty if you pay for it. This "mandatory" follow-up service is included in the price at every other shop in town. So after being bait-and-switch overcharged for the service, then getting squeezed for another $153, the total price was just under $2,000 - which was equal to the highest estimate I got anywhere. Had they been honest about their prices, I would have never visited this shop. I would STRONGLY recommend avoiding this shop at all cost. To make things worse, they were also supposed to install a pair of c-gussets on my front axle (small metal bracing to strengthen the C bends for oversized wheels). I asked specifically if they could install this while doing the axle work. He put me on hold for 10 minutes to talk to his technician about it before confirming that it would not be a problem. When I dropped the vehicle off, they again confirmed the c-gussets would be installed. I called the shop 48 hours later, just to be sure they found the c-gusset kit and instructions. AGAIN, they confirmed they had and it would be done. When I picked up the Jeep, they acted like they had no idea what I was talking about. "C-gussets? Who told you we'd install those?" This place is literally the twilight zone. They quote prices then pretend they never said it. They offer to perform services, confirm, then re-confirm, but act as if you never mentioned it 2 days later. If you do business here, you deserve what you get. The fact that they are still in business is baffling. They're disorganized, unreliable, and essentially deceptive. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
