Auto Repair for Dearborn, MI
Dearborn sits just south of us, and Warren Ave connects the two directly, so a lot of our regular customers make the drive up rather than pay dealer rates on Michigan Ave.
That is usually the reason people first call. A dealership quote on a timing chain, a transmission or an electrical fault comes in high, and they want a second opinion from a shop that will actually explain what the diagnosis found. We give the reasoning along with the number, and you approve the price before anything gets turned.
For bigger jobs we can arrange a tow from Dearborn, and towing is free once the repair comes to over $300.

- Second opinions on dealer quotes
- Bring the dealer's write-up with you. We will tell you which line items are genuinely needed now, which can wait, and which we do not agree with. Sometimes the dealer is right, and we will say that too.

- Dearborn being what it is, we see a lot of them. Familiar territory, from EcoBoost timing and cam phaser noise to the electrical faults that come up on higher-mileage F-150s and Explorers.
