I am switching to them.I have had my current mechanic for many years but he doesn't work on the battery system. they do. plus I like them. read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but this experience felt misleading and unprofessional from a pricing standpoint. I was originally quoted one price for the repair, but later I was told the cost went up because I "needed hoses added," with no clear explanation or proof provided for why those parts were necessary. There was no documentation, no visual inspection shown, and no real breakdown to justify the added work--just a verbal claim that it was required. On top of that, the final charge ended up being more than 3x what the same OEM part is listed for at Ford, which raises serious concerns about how the pricing was marked up and presented. The issues didn't stop there. This happened on a Friday. I was told my car would be ready before 4:00 PM, but around 4:30 PM I only received a last-minute text update. I arrived at approximately 5:09 PM, and the shop was already closed. There was no one available, no way to speak to anyone, and no reliable way to get updates or access my vehicle. Because of the timing and the fact that it was already Friday evening, my car would have been stuck there all weekend until Monday, which directly affected my work schedule. I had to go out of my way to find and contact the owner myself just to avoid being left without my vehicle for multiple days. While I did get my car back, the overall experience felt inconsistent, poorly communicated, and not handled in a transparent or professional way read more

AWD light was on, they could not determine the cause and left the check light on. they suggest a "smoke test". it was more than I could afford and left. a few days latter I went to have a tire repaired. the looked at the check light and said there was nothing wrong but suggested that the cause was probably a bad seal on the gas Capp. they reset the check light and I bought a new gas cap. two weeks latter and all is well. were they going to charge for test, after test, after test? be cautious. read more

These guys are great. They keep my 12 year old car on the road. It's so nice to have a trusted auto repair shop in the neighborhood. They are professional and honest. They go the extra mile to keep up to let you know how the repairs are going. Always friendly and welcoming and don't treat you like an idiot for not knowing anything about cars. read more

Requested quote for front brake pads and had oil changed (supplied my own Mobile 1 and filter). Was charged full price for synthetic oil change and for filter! Quote for brakes included rotors and was astronomical ($500-600)! Shop closest to me did just the pads as was recommended for around $100. NEVER AGAIN. read more

Amazing customer service. Truly understanding people and they're able to find what your car's issue is when no one else can. Their rates are more than enough fair and they're truly reliable ! I will be coming back any time my car has an issue. read more

Went there to try to see if they could help me out with my AC. Got signed in and shown the waiting area. Was quoted 450 to try to find the leak and labor costs I guess. I decline as I dont have that kind of money laying around. The person said ok I'll tell them to unhook everything and you can be on your way. Not once was I told that the inspection was going to cost anything. Waited another half an hour with no communication. Came out of the waiting room and went to the desk to find out I had to pay 50 dollars for a service that I did not authorize. While they were friendly somewhat there was one phrase that kind of upset me. Whenever I was trying to come up with the money the one girl sitting behind her computer said well we don't do anything for free. I get that but no need to be rude or condescending. Next time I know to just take it to a dealership where the inspection is actually free. read more

It's always a good sign when you are being helped by the person whose name is on the sign. Evan is easy to communicate with and knows how to explain what needs to be done to folks who don't speak 'Car'. His shop has a lot of capacity and is neat and orderly. I know for a fact that he will work hard to get your business and has a pretty sharp pencil. read more

Not the same owner's and work quality not good. I had great luck with ABC Auto previously and didn't realize it changed hands. Took my Mercedes there because a brake line had rusted through in the rear of the vehicle. The young guy working as a tech sounded like he had done this type of job before and said no problem. Once I dropped it off, he called and said he couldn't quite match the original lines due to so many complex bends but could make it close. No problem here so, I said go ahead. After $1000, I found out later, he had run the two rear brake lines without securing the lines in any of the original ten or so clamps along their entire routes!! The new lines were stretched tight along the fuel tank, across each other and over parts of the frame that move!! Ten days later, my brakes went out completely. I brought it back expecting some kind of warranty. One of the rubber lines at the wheel had rubbed through on the rim!! The owner insisted that I had moved around some of the lines they had put in so, it was my fault and charged me another $240. The only thing I had done was tie-wrap the line to its factory plastic clip because the clip had been broken and left unsecured. Anyway, they seemed like nice guys but I think the young tech was probably unwilling to admit he did a half-ass job. I honestly think what they did was not a safe set up and may need to have it all replaced again:( read more

I went in to see Evan to get his opinion on my tires and an issue I was having with alignment. The guy could not have been more honest, and saved me having to do something or pay for something I didn't need. In a world of people who do the opposite, this was a refreshing experience to say the least. If you or your family need something done, go see Evans auto I promise they'll take care of you. Thx man !! read more

Not only did Evan align the front end of my car, he was easy to talk to explained the process. He then followed up with a thank you post card in the mail. He has my business and I am happy to bring my cars there. read more

I purchased a 2015 Mini Cooper last year from a local used car dealership. The car needed some work when we bought it .... new tires and brakes to name a few. I had the tire and brake work done at a "Plus" shop where I also had a four wheel alignment done. After all of this work the car drove ok but never really seemed quite right. I could see that the camber in the rear wheels seemed excessive. After reading reviews about ABC Autotech, I decided to give them a try. Boy am I glad I did. Rick and his crew diagnosed my problem and told me what we needed to correct the out of whack camber. The car rides and handles like a new car! I'll definitely be back to see ABC when I need more service on the Mini. Thanks for a job well done Rick and his crew. read more

Rick is a wonderful auto "consultant" and gives great advice and service for all my auto needs.. He helped me choose new tires for my beloved Camry. It doesn't get much better. read more

ABC was fantastic, I had a flat tire while trying to pickup my wife from the hospital. The flat was due to a large screw or nail. I first tried Tires Plus and all they wanted to do was sell me a new $250 tire and gave me excuses why they couldn't patch or plug mine. I then called ABC and they were like, just bring it in and we'll take care of it and they did!! They did not try to sell me any extras or make excuses. Good honest people, a quick in and out. Always shop local if you can, these large companies don't care about you or your needs, all they care is about is taking your hard earned money. read more

Evans Auto - Auto Repair Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

Being newly divorced and having to do car repairs I was told by two franchise places that I needed a repair that would cost $900.00. I called this company and they wanted to see the car- they said that they had never heard of a Lexus needing this repair. Sure enough I went to the business and the repair I needed only cost $200.00. What a relief. They are very honest and priced reasonably. I now go there for all my repairs. Their oil change is far below what the other local franchises charged. So happy I found an honest company who do exceptional work.. read more
