Experts recommend changing the oil and oil filter in your vehicle every 3 months or 3,000 miles, whichever is first. It's an essential way to maximize engine protection. Our team will flush the cooling system, conduct a pressure test, check hoses and cap and check connections. One of our trained air conditioning specialists will inspect your car's air conditioner, all A/C lines, evaporator and compressor for leaks and wear.
The air conditioning unit in your vehicle operates similarly to a refrigerator. Your vehicle's air conditioning unit is designed to move heat from the inside of your car to outside of it. The refrigerant carries heat. In modern cars, refrigerant is a substance called R-134a. The compressor circulates and compresses refrigerant within the vehicle's cooling system.
Your vehicle's axles are vital to keeping you safe on the road. They are just as important as other safety devices on your vehicle, such as brakes and tires. Axles bear all of your vehicle's weight. They connect its wheels and help drive the vehicle. In most cars, the axles are an essential part of the steering system, working with power steering fluid and other components to ensure smooth turning.
Your vehicle's battery is the source of electrical currents necessary to start the engine. The battery provides power to your vehicle's accessories and electrical parts; it allows them to operate even when your vehicle's engine is not running. Additionally, components such as your engine and starter rely on the battery for power; they cannot run without a properly functioning battery.

Hands down the best shop in the thurston county area!
I will not take my vehicles anywhere else. After having a horrible experience with dodge of Olympia, and the local firestones. Ben and his team not only had my jeep inspected and fixed in one day, he also has very reasonable, honest prices for a mechanic shop.
Ben and his team are very professional, and truly do go above and beyond when it comes to customer satisfaction. All the horrible stories about shops out there. You will not get none of that at bens.
I want to personally thank you for being a shop that truly cares about their customers

Amazing, I have had this issue with my Saturn's front end. Non stop knocking when I go over bumps or turn Les Schwab was able to diagnose it for me (sway bar frame mount bushings) Ben's automotive was able to replace those for me for half the price of other places I tried including Les Schwab. Super friendly staff well worth the 3 weeks I had to wait for an appointment

Definitely satisfied with my service from Ben’s Auto and will have no problem referring friends and family to their shop! Based on reviews alone I’ve tried several shops in town. Ben’s has some of the highest and I’m happy to give them 5 stars. I would give 10 for being professional, on time, knowledgeable and price. The place is clean too. Thanks! I’ll be back for sure!

AC service and brakes- best price in town especially for good parts. Honest. Clean shop. Trustworthy. I scheduled online and Jodie replied immediately confirming my appointment. They have an excellent reputation so I was willing to wait about 2 weeks for an appointment. Thanks everyone at Ben’s-appreciate the timely, honest and affordable service.

A real nice place to do business. Give yourself plenty of time for an appointment because they are busy. You know the saying if you want something done ask a busy person to do it. I appreciated the man at the front desk taking the time to explain the services to me. I was not rushed off and the price was very affordable. Good honest work. Thanks.

I am on a fixed budget and the prices here compared to other places are really good. For the service and knowledge you get they could charge a lot more but you can’t put a price on good, honest work and an excellent reputation. From oil changes or wind shield wiper replacement to tedious electrical or engine diagnosis, Ben’s Automotive can do it for the price they say and they will have it done when promised. Thank you everyone at Ben’s Automotive for always keeping my car running safely and for treating your customers with respect.
