Marty is the best - took me a few years to find a mechanic I can trust and rely on as I am extremely skeptical of mechanics. He is honest, makes time for you and happily explains everything and fair pricing. Great husband/wife operation over there and you will not find better.

Ever since my husband and I were referred to this auto center almost 4 years ago now, we never looked for any other place. Missy and Marty are rare in their transparency and professionalism. They are also generous. Its good to know that there are people in the world who want to make an honest living and we are the beneficiaries of their great service. Thank you Missy and Marty!

Came here for the first time and the owner took good care of me. I did a basic oil change. Even though he didnt have availability for same the day, he asked me to come back in one hour so he could squeez me in. I came back and he took me in right away, did my oil and fluid change and had me out of there in 20 min so so.

I recently had some minor work done and both Missy & Marty are wonderful! Marty explained in detail my issue and fixed my car with quality service at a VERY REASONABLE price. They have my business for sure!

I have been servicing my vehicles at Oakland Auto for a number of years now. foremost, the job is always done right the first time. Secondly, they are almost alwasy able to tell you what is wrong with your vehicle and what needs to be done to make it right. Finally, they are not only punctual and professional, but they provide your with services that is always value orientated. you never feel taken advantage of or that you paid too much. Thank you Missie and Marty - really appreciate you both

A couple of weeks ago I took my car to the dealer for a routine oil change. After the work was done, they gave me a long list of very costly repairs that they said it urgently needed. After sitting with this information for several days, I decided to take my car for a second look at Oakland Auto Center. Marty and Missie took care of me. After a careful inspection, Marty told me that the car was in very good shape, and needed none of what I was told by the dealer. I was taken aback by the deceit of the dealer, but most of all by Martys honesty. I will continue to bring my car to Oakland Auto Center, and will give them a well deserved 5 stars!

Marty helped me out immensely a couple of years back and is about to do the same again. I have the utmost confidence in him and trust his judgment completely. He came to me highly recommended by Jeff Mitchell and I have not regretted it for a moment.And as I said, once again, Marty and Missie have come through with flying colors for me. Marty is so upfront in his conversations with you, that there is no doubt that he will do exactly what he says and will do it with you financially in mind.Not only did he do what was asked, he took that extra step to make sure that I understood what was going on and why he was doing what he was doing on my car. AND got it done in no time at all. I was only without my car for a day and a half!! He told me that it would be ready at 3:00 and it was.He also showed me pieces that were removed from my car so I could better understand what he had done. Great guy! I have highly recommended him to friends.

I found both Missy and Marty, the owners of the repair shop to be honest, trustworthy, knowledgeable and very skilled. Marty quickly and accurately installed the upgraded suspension parts on my truck with both ease and confidence. I highly recommend Marty for any type of vehicle repair work.

Unfortunately I wish I could write a better review but I have to be honest. I took my car in to replace the water pump and check out my rough idle. I got a call saying it would be $325 to have an aftermarket water pump installed. I knew that was the cost the DEALER would have charged for OE but I figured if they could find the rough idle it would be worth paying up for. When I went into the shop I was told I had a possible vacuum leak. They didnt test anything!! When I asked about it they said I would have to bring it back to have tested because they were too busy. So I did a week later and they charged me $185 just to do a smoke test and still could not tell me where the leak is. The DEALER charges $110 for this test and definitely would have pinpointed the problem. Overpriced!!!

Marty is the best, hands down. He takes care of everything, does what needs to be done, tells you what he did, why it needed done, and charges you less than any other place Ive ever taken my car. The perfect combination of competence, skill, customer service, and value. If only every company were half as good.

Review №29

Ive gone to a number of mechanics in south FL, Marty is my guy. Marty is a genuine mechanic who will not overcharge you or rip you off with labor just because he can. Very efficient and quick with diagnosing any mechanical problems and will be completely honest with part price and labor. I feel extremely comfortable with my car in his hands. So far Marty and missy have helped my closest friends and family with car issues over the years. Couldnt thank them enough.

Ok, so this place is great. Thats not correct. Its actually fantastic. How many auto repair places have you ever been to where the people are honest, nice, smart, knowledgeable, and actually fix your car the way they say theyre going to and charge you an extremely reasonable price? Probably none before you visit this business. Never seen anything like it.

This is in response to James Burandt one star The complaint was poor air flow from the dash vents I connected a scanner and accessed the A/C Heater control head Retreived code BO248 Code description is mode door shorted to ground and or stuck I checked the electrical circuit from the control head to the mode actuator No problem I than checked to make sure the mode door wasn’t jammed or stuck It wasn’t This confirmed the mode actuator was the problem This is why there was a diagnostic charge I don’t guess I test

Marty tells it like it is. No BS or overpriced repairs. Marty is the only mechanic so not paying for labor of guys sitting around. Ive been going for years, 3rd car hes maintaining. My friend referred me and I have referred others to Marty. Hell be my mechanic until he decides to retire which I hope isnt for a long time.

Marty is the fastest working and most honest mechanic I have ever taken a car to. I first brought my old car in a year ago (190000 mile chevy impala) to see what cost to repair would be - tells me I have a blown piston, he tells me where to get the top dollar for my old car (got $2200 for that POS!), and checked out 2 cars I was looking at buying. All this without paying a cent. Every other time Ive taken my new car or my gfs car, he gives us the best prices weve ever gotten for maintenance. Best part is, he is really smart, and works really, really fast. The guy doesnt waste any time, yours or his.

I took two cars to Marty for pre-purchase inspections and he gave me the honest truth. One car failed before he even did the preinspection .. He referred to that same make, model and year that he has personally worked on with the same reoccurring issue and even showed me and informed me how expensive they are to mantian. I found a 2nd vehicle a few hours later and while test driving it with an employee of the car lot, I dropped back by to see if he could check that car out. He managed to squeeze me in (which he definitely did not have to do). He extensively looked the 2nd vehicle over, checked the electronics, tires, undercarriage and things that a professional mechanic should do. He took notes and was very thorough. The vehicle passed with 2 minor issues that are a quick fix. A ball joint screw and a left fender. I recommend Oakland Auto for professionalism, service, attention to detail and timeliness.
