F & B Automotive, Inc. at a glance

Customers frequently highlight the shop's honest communication, competitive pricing, and ability to resolve complex mechanical issues that other shops missed. Reviews often note the staff's professionalism and willingness to explain repair options clearly.

I don't take my car in for repair very often, but this where I take it when I do. Jason bailed me out after a crazy idea of trying to change my timing belt, water pump, and serpentine belt myself…2 days before a family road trip out of state. Their pricing is almost always better than other places in town. They even installed the parts I had already bought. This was the second timing belt replacement they'd done for me, on my second Honda Odyssey. These guys just take care of you, and I trust their expertise. Thank you!

Jason has been an absolute godsend! My dad is a retired master mechanic who moved out of state. I have searched high and low for someone I can trust with that inherent knowledge of cars, they are rare. We went to a shop in Pinedale twice that misdiagnosed my car. We took my daughter's car which was misdiagnosed someplace else, he diagnosed it and fixed it in a day. My car is there now, I feel totally comfortable with whatever he does. They are having nest, fair, and highly knowledgeable. Thank you!

They did fantastic!! My cooling fan wasn’t turning and he figured out exactly what was wrong with it. He charged me 80 dollars for the diagnostic when other shops near him were charging 100s. He didn’t try to overcharge me and gave me EXACTLY what i paid for. He even fit me in again when i complained about my ac making a funny noise. Overall, i would come here every time and i think if your looking for honest, hardworking men to fix your car, this is the place to go!
