We Fix Everything! Oil changes to complete overhauls!

How much is a good mechanic (technician) worth?

How many people do you know who trust the place where they take their car for service? Not that many? Well, Auto Care Plus is changing that.

Because the auto industry is constantly changing, Auto Care Plus continually invests in the latest technology and state-of-the-art equipment. Hi-tech cars also require highly skilled technicians. That’s why you’ll find an ASE-certified technician under the hood of your car at Auto Care Plus. We refer to them as technicians, not mechanics, and we’ve made the investment in recruiting and training the best technicians possible to work on your car.

Why is our service better?

Because we believe a happy customer is our best advertising. It’s not rocket science; if you just work on hiring good solid people, if you’re friendly, honest and turn out quality work, everything else takes care of itself. At Auto Care Plus you’ll always be greeted by a clean, knowledgeable attendant ready to make your experience as pleasant as possible.
