Our family has been using Lake City Autoworks for decades with at least half a dozen different makes and models, and we have complete trust in Karl. He is honest, knowledgeable, and fair, and we have complete confidence in his expertise and integrity. We cannot recommend him highly enough!

Just purchased 1936 Restromod Ford pickup that needed serious attention. The owner and mechanic gave my truck their full and careful attention. Autoworks will be our go to shop as long as we own the truck.

They’re so nice and helpful. It’s actually a joy to go here with my vehicle. They answer my questions straight forward and are very clear with what my expectations should be. They clearly enjoy the work and will sometimes diagnose other issues for fun while they wait for me to pick up the truck.

Been going to LCAW for many years for a variety of problems with our cars. The service is great. In the last year we had a starter motor replaced and a air condenser replaced. Their charge on the AC was lower than a competitor because they were able to reuse an existing part not replace it. Would definitely recommend.
