Best Car Repair Shops - USA

When Selecting the best Car Repair Shops anywhere in the USA, I highly recommend following a three step process:

  1. National Institute for Automotive Service ExcellenceClick on this link to go to the ASE web site where you can find ASE Blue Seal Shops.

    ASE Blue Seal Shops are the "Best of the Best".  They have passed the highest standards and have an ASE Certified Tech for every repair they perform. I know of no higher certification.

    It is a pretty impressive accomplishment for a shop to be on the ASE Blue Seal Facility list. The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence was founded in 1972 as an independent, non-profit organization with a single mission: To improve the quality of automotive service and repair through the voluntary testing and certification of automotive technicians.
  2. Click on this link to go to the ASA web site where you can find ASA shops.

    When your vehicle is repaired by an Automotive Service Association (ASA) member-business, you can expect the following:

    An attentiveness to you, the customer. ASA members work to earn and keep your satisfaction and trust. An average of 78 percent of customers are repeat customers.

    Repairs and service backed by years of experience. The average ASA mechanical repair shop is 24 years old and 94 percent of ASA mechanical members are part of family-owned businesses.

    The average ASA collision repair shop is 32 years old and 95 percent of ASA collision members are part of family-owned businesses. Ninety-four percent of the shops operate a Web site and 61 percent of their customers are repeat customers.

    Adherence to ASA's Code of Ethics that outlines professional business practices.

    Accurate diagnosis and repairs. ASA members stay up-to-date with evolving vehicle technology by attending technical education classes.

    Access to information. By belonging to ASA, members have access to more than 30 association benefits, including the latest technical and management education, and regulatory information.

  3. Better Business BureauOne additional check that I recommend is to click here to see if the firm is a member of your local Better Business Bureau, BBB. Not only can the BBB inform you of a local business's rating, but they can also help to settle disputes.
