They were recommended to me by a friend and I would highly recommend them to anyone I know as well!Thrilled with the level of professionalism and detail from this group!They take their time, give clear and complete details around the repairs while trying to keep expenses down. Trustworthy and high quality work!
I gave this place a shot after a friend at work recommended them. I had my car at the dealer first, where they wanted big bucks to fix my car. I wanted a second opinion, and took my car to Academic Automotive. I will tell you these people are the most honest people I have ever dealt with. Not only did they fix my car at a much more reasonable price than the dealer wanted, they took the time while very busy to explain everything to me. I was so impressed, and since then, have been taking my car here for everything. They do quality work, and once the car is fixed, its fixed. They are wonderful about explaining options, and do their very best to work you into their busy schedule. I have found a mechanic I can trust, and will be taking my cars to Academic Automotive from now on. If you are looking for an honest no-nonsense mechanic that wants you to feel good when you leave - then call Academic Automotive. Trust me, you wont be disappointed. Thx Eric
Best place around to get your car fixed by an honest bunch of mechanics!! Ill go here for all my vehicle repairs!!
They do good auto work
Great place to take your car or truck for repairs.
Great people, service and craftsmanship.
I was having one hell of a day with my motorcycle chain popping off (and while I know this isnt a motorcycle shop) I pulled in to see if they would help and without hesitation I received the tools and parts I needed to get home, completely deserve a 5 star rating due to the friendliness and the helpfulness of the employees there, absolutely suggest to anyone that needs work done as long as its a car or truck.
Very satisfied with the service. Will definitely go back again for future vehicle maintenance or repair.
Had a car problem while visiting family and they recommended Academic. They were able to give us a quick diagnostic to determine that we were safe to drive home and have the repair done later. Professional team that really knows their stuff.
Most honest and reasonably priced shop around. Repeat customer. A+
Dave and the team provide great service at reasonable pricing!
Grest group of auto techs who definitely set the bar for the auto service industry. They know whay theyre talking about when it comes to anything automotive. They dont overcharge, theyre fast, friendly, and even on a tricky trans job like mine got it done and done right! May have found a new mechanic! Kurts the man!
Did a nice job on my van 👍
They are fantastic. Very knowledgeable and thoroughly explained everything. Highly recommend! Great work at a great price.
Intelligent. Compassionate. Knowledgeable about all cars. Reasonable pricing. Honest to the core I love academic automotive. !
Academic did some air conditioning work on my vehicle and I couldnt be happier! They were very easy to schedule an appointment over the phone and performed the work in a timely manner. Also their prices were very fair. I wouldnt hesitate to bring them my vehicle again for any future repairs!
I have worked with this auto service provider several times over the course of years. The service and knowledge is far above any other facility. The one element that always amazes me is the communication level provided. For example, during my last service which was a moderately complicated electrical issue. I received daily updates from the head mechanic with specific information summarized so that I could learn along the way. Knowledge and communication are the two elements I look for at an auto shop. They provide both. Lastly, you can trust Academic Auto to do and charge the right amount. I have always felt the price to equal the work level. I gladly write this review to celebrate excellence in action.
I’ve used Academic for years and have always received five star service from them. Recently my daughter had car issues out of state. Being unsure of the other mechanic I reached out to Tracy to see if some comparison could be made from the last time I brought her car to Academic. Dave went above and beyond to ensure I was being given accurate information by the other shop and went so far as to call and talk to them and go over the issues. If you’re looking for honesty, integrity, and a mechanic who will explain (in detail) the work they suggest, Academic is definitely the shop for you.
These folks are great. Squeezed my car in with no appointment to fix a coolant leak, and had it repaired the next day. Dave and team evaluated the issue and provided more than one solution to fix the car and did so at a great price. Family has gone here for years, will continue to do so.
Dave and Tracy at Academic Automotive are awesome!!! Everytime I go in there I get a lesson on car repair, its great. I have never gone to a more honest and reasonable establishment. Customer for life!!!
Love the owners and employees go out of their way to answer any questions
Academic automotive has good mechanics and is run by good people. They genuinely want to help people. Theyre not just out to make money.
Thumbs Up for Academic. Was able to get me in and fixed in just 1 day. I appreciated how they explain in detail everything they found and next steps they were taking to fix my electrical issue. 2006 Z4 is spring ready.
Thank you Kurt for working on my nissan ! Tracey was very friendly and awesome. I knew in seconds this is where I want to bring my vehicles. I was told on a Saturday that I needed to stop driving my Armada, that it would be expensive to fix my issue and take it to a shop. a coworker of mine recommended academic auto. I sent an email and received a quick response. Kurt was able to look at my truck on monday told me exactly what I needed and it was cheaper than what I thought it would be! picked up my truck on Tuesday, its in great shape ! I just want to say thank you ACADEMIC AUTO ! I havent met everyone but I know you all are awesome thank you so much. Ill be back and Ill be sure to recommend to everyone I know !
This is the best repair shop around. I have gone here many times; mostly for oil changes, but some more intense repairs. I know I am always getting the best deal and I trust them with my car. I have never had to go back for them to fix something after a repair.Highly recommended!
Talk about finally finding an honest mechanic!!! Dave and his team do a great job. I never feel as though they are doing whats best for them, rather its all about taking care of me and making my vehicle safe. This is more than just an auto shop, you will see that from the first visit. I have had services from oil changes, tires and a heater core replacement. They do excellent work on the little jobs as well as the big ones. I would highly recommend bringing your vehicles here!!!
FANTASTIC SERVICE!My wife and I have used them numerous times to make repairs to our cars. They are always on time. Compared to other shops, their prices are always fair.Great people to deal with. They make you feel like family!
Academic Auto is the only place I will ever take my car. I have had such a great experience with them. My mom got her car fixed there and because of the great service they provided for her, I decided I would try them out as well. The mechanics are so knowledgeable and they really take the time to make sure they solve the problem. As a female, I trust them to not take advantage of my lack of knowledge when it comes to cars. They remain in constant communication with you while they have your car, and they are very clear and easy to understand when explaining what the vehicles problem is. I highly recommend them if you need anything done to your vehicle, especially if you are a female. They wont break your bank fixing things that dont need fixed. They deserve the business! Thank you all, at Academic Automotive!!
These guys are the best. My whole family and I have been taking our cars there for years. Wouldnt trust anybody else! Always honest, quick, and friendly service. They treat everyone like family. If you want the best possible service at the best possible price, take your vehicles to Academic! Love these guys!
The auto repair industry is laced with dishonest types. I hate saying that, but it is true. Once in a great while, I have found an honest shop. When I find them, usually through word of mouth, I stick with them. The only reason I change is because ownership changes or I move.Academic is the most honest and reliable shop I have ever dealt with. They do great work and are timely. I have had times where they steered me away from more costly repairs. How many shops do you know would do this? Do you and your family a favor and use these folks!!
I would give these guys 10 stars if I could. Dave and Joel have been my local mechanics for over 15 years and always get the job done at a very reasonable price. Thank you Academic Auto.
These guys were a great help! I purchased a vehicle that has been regularly serviced by Academic Automotive. I arrived and asked for any service records, which they were more than happy to supply from file. I can see they have taken good care of the van we have. They are honest and experienced. Dave went over a few things to look out for on the van. Its hard to find a family business like this that has time (even when they were flat out) to talk and make you feel at home. Happy to highly recommend these guys.
These guys are trustworthy and detailed in their explanations. Labor rate is fair and I dont feel like they overcharge for what you get compared to other mechanics. I feel lucky to have them down the road from me!
Academic Auto delivers an honest approach to the auto mechanics which is a rare find these days. In addition, they consistently provide a detailed explanation and description of the service on your car. Once you find a great mechanic like Academic Auto, youll never search for another mechanic again.
THANK YOU - Tracy, Dave, Joel, and the guys! Cant say enough good things about ACADEMIC!!! I have been taking cars there for over 10 years. Great people, friendly & knowledgeable. They give me options, and are sincerely trying to help me.
The most honest mechanic I have ever used. I wont take my vehicles anywhere else.
They’ve always done a great job! Highly recommend!
(This company is in Liberty Township, OH, however, the zip code causes automated systems to say, Middletown)Dave is one of the best (if not the best) mechanics I have ever used. I am in my late 60s, so I have used many mechanics, and I know when their diagnostics make sense. I will not go into a lot of detail, but, the problem diagnoses precluded me having several types of catastrophic failures on distant travel. Dave keeps at it until he finds the problem. He is NOT a superficial mechanic. Aside from that, Dave doesnt wait for a question, he takes you step-by-step into the nature of the more complex problems, answers your questions, and always appreciates the need for excellent communications. The courteous nature of Dave, his co-workers, and his wife, Tracy (shes awesome), make the process a pleasant one. I go away wanting his shop to continue succeeding in car and customer care. The same amount of work at other auto-shops will cost you as much or more, and you wont go away with the confidence of knowing... It doesnt get better than this!
Dont hesitate to stop by Academic Automotive for all of your car needs! Theyre so friendly and honest, they only sell you whats best for your car! They can help you understand any problems and give you the best options. Theyve helped me with my automotive conundrums for years and Ill never go anywhere else! Everyone is friendly in this family owned business. Tracey is the nicest person youll ever meet and Dave is a wealth of knowledge!
You just dont find automotive repair shops like this anymore... This is an honest, shoot-you-straight kind of place that will only make the necessary repairs and advise you as if its their own vehicle. I highly recommend this place.
Fabulous auto mechanic service!!! Wonderful gem of such an honest and dependable business.
Great place Dave has been taking care of our cars for years. Honest and great prices!
This is a great family owned company. They will treat you right and take care of you. I highly recommend them. Go see them today.
Dave and crew have been servicing my vehicles for years. they know what they are doing--but more importantly, they demonstrate a level of integrity seldom seen in business. experience and honesty are a hard combination to beat in this business.
Repeat Customer Here. Every time Im in they are honest and work hard to do whats best for my car.
Great guys, great work, always satisfied. Dave and his guys are very thorough and totally trustworthy.
I have been taking my vehicles there for over six years. They are honest, trustworthy and always give all the options. I highly recommend Academic Automotive!!
Dave, Tracey, and everyone at Academic are great. I take all my car troubles to them, and I can trust what they say needs to happen -- really needs to happen. They lay out all the options, and leave the decisions up to me. Ive been going to them for over 10 years, and trust them 100%. Thats what its all about with a mechanic.
The customer service is always really refreshing and Academic always does great work at a reasonable price. My family and I have been going here for years and will continue to do so.
The mechanics here consistently exceed my expectations, not only with the maintenance, repairs and service, but also by helping me understand the issues and my options. My family has trusted our vehicles with Dave and his team for over a decade. I wouldnt go anywhere else!
Dependable, fast service at a reasonable price. Most importantly: people you can TRUST!
Great people, great service, reasonable prices. Trustworthy!
Good service, good people, glad I found a good mechanic in the area.
As always, excellent, prompt and friendly service.!
