We will help you stay on top of any necessary services to keep your vehicle running like new for as long as possible. At this time we are not able to take in anything older than 2006 unless the vehicle is "grandfathered in" and has been previously serviced here before.
Because the demand for our services is so great and there are only two master techs here we have to limit the amount of things we take in for service in order to offer a decent turn around time and to prevent being scheduled out into the very distant future.We repair all foreign and domestic makes and models including light duty diesel trucks.

Andy's is a family-owned business that does amazing work! They are trustworthy, and will give it to you straight. There is no one else I would trust to work on my vehicles. They have super knowledgeable mechanics that are willing to explain things to you so you understand what is wrong with your vehicle, and/or The work they will be doing. If you are looking for a trustworthy mechanic look no further!

Andy's Auto is hands down the best auto shop in the area. This is my third time having vehicles serviced by them. Not only do they care about your saftey, they throughly explain what you need done, and why. As well as let you know what could wait for next visit. Very reasonable prices as well, they truly care about their customers! 10/10 I always reccomend them. Thank you for all that you do!

Timing chain repair was needed-- no small task! The communication regarding the time, cost, parts and process to repair were explained very well after the initial diagnostics and before I committed to the work. I made the 'informed' decision to go forward with the repair. These folks are not only great communicators, but exceptional mechanics. Its been almost a year now and the car is performing better than I can remember. Thanks AA!

Andy and Team are extremely honest and reliable. We appreciate that they’ll tell us when it’s smart to install a used part and save money or spend extra for top of the line.
We bring all major jobs to this shop and don’t trust anyone else. We even pay them to review any used cars that we purchase.
Keep up the good work! We appreciate you!!

I love their work ethic. I bought a used car from a crooked car dealership and found out later that the intake manifold was leaking because they tried to replace the gasket, and Andy told me it was because they put it on backwards. I was previously quoted by some other shady shops for a repair that they said would've cost THOUSANDS more than what Andy said. They are very knowledgeable, and even gave me insight about what the previous shops didn't catch. My car is now running better than ever, and even though his shop is more than 30 miles away from me, I won't take my car to any

Andy and his people were all very polite from the get go. I was having electrical issues on my 94 Saturn. My vehicle debateably should have been junked. Andy didn't want me to sink my money into a worthless vehicle. So he kept in contact with me whenever there was a new development. Allowing me to make the descision on where to go next. Not only was this considerate, and great customer service. But they discovered the issue, and fixed it up. At a very reasonable price no less. I highly recommend Andy's Automotive Repair. If that doesn't say enough. I'll be recommending both dear friends and family

Went to Andy's 9-9-14 for repair on my Mazda. I dealt with Nick on the phone and in person. He's a very professional employee. The shop seems like a straight to the point kind of place. They explained possible problems I might be facing. I left the car for repair. They kept apprised throughout the day on the progress. They fixed the problems quicker than they told me. Price of the repair was good too. I will be taking all my vehicles to Andy's from now on. Good bunch of guys!
