I can NOT say enough about this establishment. Long story short, I had my catalytic converter stolen & needed my car ASAP due to my job requirements. I didn't have a car rental covered by my insurance & was getting quite stressed when calling to other shops. Literally, EVERY other shop I called said it would be a minimum 3 month wait for the part. Cars Automotive & Muffler got it done in less than a week. They worked with my insurance & knocked it out. They even took my car through the car wash before I went to pick it up - it was well over due for one. They are sincere customer service through & through - with quality work. I'll be coming back here for all my car needs. Thank you, guys!

This is in response to Mike D. Owner of Cars Automotive & Muffler.
Your people are lying to you. I did pay for that service. And i paid for the part as well!they made me wait an extra week and a half for the part. That means they are making you complicit in their lies and fraudulent business practices. Good luck.Helpful 2Thanks 2Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

Oct 14, 2022Previous reviewThe chad is not my mechanic...ANYMORE!
I mean we all know its difficult to find a decent mechanic. I decided to give Cars Automotive a shot at my business. I have a 10 year old Kia that still runs like a champ. I don't mind paying a fair price to keep it that way. But places like this make it more difficult. Several things were diagnosed. Fix them all i say. But one item was mis-diagnosed. So this place makes me pay for its misdiagnoses. I asked kindly for a resolution. They immediately become defensive and say come pick up your car. This place is overpriced and shady at best. This place seems to be doing well because they overcharge.

From a new exhaust system on my very first truck almost 30 years ago to the most recent service, this business has remained a clean, efficient and well managed repair shop. In and out with no BS just like it should be!

Every time I bring my truck in I am met with knowledgeable and professional employees. Chad is the best. He takes care of my truck as if it's his own. Not that I want my truck to need work done, but I always look forward to coming to Cars Automotive. They even have snacks and drinks for you while you wait!! Check it out!!

Oct 18, 2021Previous reviewI just moved to the area three months ago, and my truck broke down. I randomly selected Cars Automotive And Muffler out of an immediate need, but boy am I glad I did. Chad answered the phone, he said he was the manager. He was very knowledgeable over the phone so I felt very comfortable having my truck towed to his shop. When I got there, Chad greeted me and immediately looked at my truck. He spent time pre diagnosing The problem. Later he had his technician run a full diagnostics on the truck. Diagnostics confirmed what he originally thought was wrong. Very smart guy. You can tell he really enjoys his craft. And to top it all off, he worked me into their schedule to get me back on the road again by the next day. And lastly, The price they charged me was reasonable. I do not feel overcharged. That is a very important thing for a customer to feel when choosing a mechanic. I will bring my truck here from now on.
