How payment works
is what we aim to cover toward your repair — every six months you continue to qualify.
for parts, the tow, and any additional repairs — before any work begins on your car.
In most cases we prioritize and only complete safety repairs over non-safety issues.
Please know before you come
- We don't finance parts or repairs, and we don't install parts you bring yourself.
- We don't estimate repair costs until we've seen the car in our own shop.
- We can't help get cars out of impound or tow lots.
- Use the repair estimators in our footer for a rough idea of cost before you come.
We only work with these shops
- Pierce Family Automotive
- RPM Automotive Services
- Xtra Mile Automotive
We rely on fundraisers for all of our work — there is no guarantee we'll have funds available for your repair at any given time.
By appointment only
- Submit the form first. We'll email you to discuss your car's needs, then we'll schedule an appointment together. Earlier times are best.
- No same-day appointments. Schedule at least a day ahead and confirm by 2pm the day before — otherwise you may lose your spot.
- Expect a diagnosis at your first visit, then a second appointment for repairs — or we may keep your car with us.
- Some repairs take 2–3 weeks. We have two mechanics and provide services two days a week — daily check-ins won't speed things up, and we can't serve people who do this or misrepresent their car's issues.
- While you wait, you'll have full access to our waiting room with A/C, TV, food, and drinks.
Some of our services
We're more of an ER than a family doctor: focused on safety repairs, honest about how much life your parts have left, and we won't recommend unnecessary work.
Your repair, step by step
After you submit the form, check your email and spam folder for our confirmation. No confirmation means it didn't go through — please re-submit.
