Five Stars! Outstanding Service, Reasonable Prices, Professionalism, Honesty, and Integrity!…read more I cannot say enough wonderful things about Accurate Auto by Mike! After a very stressful experience with another automotive repair facility, I brought my 2012 Kia Soul to Accurate Auto hoping to find a knowledgeable, honest, caring, and dependable mechanic. I am extremely grateful that I did! First, I want to recognize Mike, the owner, for the exceptional care and pride he takes in his business. Mike treats your vehicle as though it were his very own. That kind of dedication and personal attention is something I deeply appreciate. He understands how important a dependable vehicle is to its owner, and his commitment to providing quality automotive service is evident. Another outstanding quality of Accurate Auto is its very reasonable pricing. Automotive repairs can be expensive, but I appreciate a business that provides quality workmanship at fair and reasonable prices. I never expect repairs to be free or inexpensive simply because I would prefer to spend less. I expect honesty, professionalism, and value for my money, and Accurate Auto delivered. I also want to give special recognition to Dave, who is a top-notch mechanic and an exceptional individual. Dave demonstrated genuine care, patience, understanding, and professionalism throughout my experience. He listened to my concerns, treated me with respect, and helped restore my confidence in automotive repair services. It is refreshing to encounter someone who understands that customers are entrusting mechanics with something important to their everyday lives. My vehicle had previously been diagnosed as needing an approximately $13,000 engine replacement. Naturally, I was extremely concerned about the future of my car. Accurate Auto took the time to evaluate my vehicle and provide its own professional assessment rather than simply accepting the previous diagnosis. Their October 6, 2026, written assessment stated: "To the best of our ability, we don't seem to think it needs a new engine. The slight ticking noise is considered normal. Needs tires." I cannot adequately describe the relief I felt after receiving that assessment. Accurate Auto also identified and addressed several important issues with my vehicle. Their work included replacing the rear axle beam, performing a four-wheel alignment, replacing motor mounts, repairing the power door locks, and installing a new battery. They also addressed my exterior windshield trim, cabin air filter, and windshield wipers. I appreciated the attention given to my vehicle and their willingness to address the repairs it needed. I am very satisfied with the service I received. Considering the amount of work completed, I found Accurate Auto's pricing reasonable and appreciated the quality of their workmanship. My car feels and runs like a new vehicle. My 2012 Kia Soul, affectionately named Lady Grace, is much more than transportation to me. She represents my independence, freedom, and ability to take care of my daily responsibilities. I wanted a repair facility that would treat both me and Lady Grace with respect, and Accurate Auto provided that experience. What impressed me most was the combination of Mike's dedication to his customers and Dave's mechanical knowledge, kindness, and understanding. Together, they represent the qualities I believe every automotive repair facility should strive to provide. I believe in recognizing businesses that provide excellent service. Too often, people take the time to write reviews only when something goes wrong. I want to acknowledge a business that made a positive difference. To Mike, thank you for operating a business where customers and their vehicles are treated with genuine care. Your commitment to quality workmanship and reasonable pricing is appreciated. To Dave, thank you for being such a top-notch, caring, understanding, and professional mechanic. Your patience, kindness, and willingness to listen did not go unnoticed. I highly recommend Accurate Auto by Mike to anyone looking for knowledgeable mechanics, quality workmanship, reasonable prices, professionalism, and outstanding customer service. I would confidently recommend this business to my family, friends, and anyone searching for a dependable automotive repair facility. Accurate Auto has earned my trust, appreciation, and respect. I look forward to having them care for Lady Grace for years to come. Five stars, without hesitation! Mike, Dave, and the entire Accurate Auto team deserve recognition for a job exceptionally well done!

He called back gave me the prices (which were were a bit less than I was expecting) and said to bring it in. I brought it in the next morning and told going there was no rush because his parking lot was full, he was obviously very busy, and I left him to it. I got a call 2 days later saying It was done and that it ended up being the clutch after all (which saved me a couple hundred bucks or so). I went to pick up my truck, he showed me the busted parts and explained what happened and then I was on my way. Overall, it was very quick and professional and one of the best shop experiences I've had, you can't beat up front, straight forward answers and decades of knowledge and you really can't beat a good deal for quality work. If you're thinking about giving them your business, just do it.

This was my first time to Superior Auto Clinic after making an appointment just over a week ago…read more It's always a good sign, to me, when a place is booked up. It means there are return customers and full schedules of happy clients. The ratings really speak for themselves, too. I shopped around a LOT before making an appointment, reading and rereading reviews of places hoping to not be swindled. And I have to say: I'm an unpaid, unaffiliated, VERY opinionated human and all I could think was how much I look forward to writing a review of Superior Auto. What an incredibly thoughtful, thorough crew this place has! I was blown away by how kind and courteous the gentlemen at the front were to all who entered the (very busy) place. They got me an ride to my house and from it to pick up my car without any wait time at all. It was a great experience from building entry to final exit! While performing my usual maintenance, they came across things (desperately) needing fixing/updates. They offered me fixes at very modest, honest rates for parts and hardly anything for labor. I didn't feel cheated. I didn't feel like I had no clue what was happening. They priced it all out and sent it to me electronically so I could think through it with no pressure. I was happy to have everything fixed that needed fixing and they got to work on it as soon as I electronically signed. I spent my day with my family doing what I wanted and didn't feel like this appointment, or the communication to the shop, made even the slightest dent in my day. I am so impressed. They worked quickly and got my car done long before I picked it up and they literally smiled during each interaction. One thing I look for in businesses is how people talk once a customer leaves the building. Every time a patron exited the building, the fellas at the counter had something kind to say about the customers, as if they were all family. They greeted every person who entered the shop by name. Literally EVERY person. The Uber driver, their return clients, even me! They laughed at work-appropriate jokes (read: kids and women won't feel weird here) and had a warm atmosphere where I wouldn't have minded waiting, if I hadn't plans with my family. They host a coffee and tea bar for those waiting and it just felt...nice. When I went to check-out, they had tap to pay for iPhones and credit cards. None of the old school paper slide machines and grungy shop insides. It was all modern, updated, and clean. This might be the first time I've ever felt comfortable at any kind of auto center in my life, as a 35-year-old, tired mom. The best part: when they asked if I had any other concerns prior to fixing my car up, I mentioned an odd stuttering my brakes do when I brake hard. They knew exactly what it was AND explained it to me. I asked if they could fix it, no mention of cost, just "take my money, I want it fixed" and they actually suggested I wait to fix it to save money. They explained it would be safe to do so and what signs to look for when/if it's time to take it back to the shop. They also reassured me it would likely be fine until the next oil change. They SAVED me money. I was prepared to drop hundreds of dollars for auto fixes (I run my cars terribly, so I'm used to big price tags) but this shop actually stopped me from overspending. Never. In. My. LIFE! Have I ever had that experience. I will trust these humans for the rest of my time as an automobile owner. Big, strong, HUGE recommendation from a totally random stranger for Superior Auto Clinic. I'd have my kids take their cars there. THAT'S how trustworthy I feel they are. Well done, guys. Thank you for being so kind and respectful. There aren't many places like this anymore!
