DO NOT USE THIS MECHANIC SHOP.PROCEED AT YOUR RISK.I went to them for an engine installation for my Camaro, which they completed in a timely fashion. Within a day and a half, I had to bring it BACK to the shop because they reused old seals for my fuel injectors (more labor charges). A year later, my power steering pump dies, so I go to change it, only to find out that THEY HAD INSTALLED THE POWER STEERING PUMP PULLEY BACKWARDS.BACKWARDS. HOW DO YOU DO THAT BACKWARDS?!NOW I cant take it off, I have a bad power steering pump, and I dont even trust them anymore to correct their mistake. Terrible. Thats all I can say, I would rate lower than 1 star if possible. Smh.
Was referred here by a friend of mine and it did not disappoint. Best customer service I’ve received at any shop. Very knowledgeable, up-front, and thorough. Great communication, constantly updated me via text on the status of my vehicle. And small things like always calling me by name and offering me a bottled water while I wait really goes a long way. The work done seems to be of good quality so far, planning on returning again soon to fix a coolant leak, will update about that experience as well.
Jason is such a trustworthy mechanic and business owner. As a single woman I find that I can always trust them and their work! Thank you Jason and Vance for always taking care of me, and Burt for the great customer service!
Great experience. Went in expecting a 500 to 600 repair. Turned out to not be the problem. Its was less than 150. Repair. I bet not to many can say that. Good trustworthy auto repair is hard to find. I highly recommend this one.
Bert will take great care of you. We have been using them for years with multiple vehicles. They won’t overcharge!!! They treat you like you are their most important client!!! They let you know what’s going on every step of the way. They won’t do any work until they give your ok. Even when you want to be and pain in the butt customer. I’d never never go to anyone else!!!
They replaced both U-joints in my vehicle for a very reasonable price. The staff was very professional and personable and finished the job in the timeframe and for the price that they said they would. I also liked the way they kept me updated by text from start to finish, including copies of the inspection report and the final invoice. The place was also very clean. They are definitely my new go to place.
Wonderful people and great and timely service. I would recommend them to anyone
Ive been using advantage automotive since they opened. Probably 20 years now. Jason and his crew are absolutely the best. Theyve always been honest and trustworthy with my vehicles. Theyve never tried to sell me anything I do not need. I highly recommend them for everything from oil changes two major repairs.
Great, professional, and honest business. They kept me up to date on every step of the process, and answered any questions I had easily. Overall they made the mechanic shop experience the best it can be.
I have been taking my vehicles to Advantage Automotive for many years now. They always do an excellent and thorough job. I trust what they are telling me regarding my vehicle repairs. I have never had a reason to consider going anywhere else for auto service and recommend them everyone.
You can always rely on Advantage Automotive to give you prompt professional services at a great price. I take my cars to them for yearly inspections and oil changes. I even take my cars to them before a long road trip. Advantage Automotive has never steered me wrong. Thanks
Burt runs his shop very professionally. They do quality work. I am from Illinois and have used Advantage twice now for real problems. There very honest and price’s are very reasonable. I would recommend Advantage to anyone that needs automotive repairs.
Both Burt and Jason were enormously helpful. Jason took time to discuss with me in great length my vehicle and what was done to it. From my experience I believe these are trustworthy and honest people. I would highly recommend them to anyone that is having a automotive issues. Im happy now that I have a mechanic that I can trust.
Good guys working honest and hard to assist me in taking care of my family’s vehicles. Thank you - I really appreciate it!PATRICK
I have taken my vehicles to Advantage Automotive for over 10 years and have always been more than pleased. The entire team is professional and have taken exceptional care of my vehicles and my wallet.On my last visit Burt called me to ask which parts I preferred with the costs and the different advantages of both. Its the personal touch that sets the team at Advantage Automotive apart.I have referred a lot of people here and they have all been happy.
I am so impressed! Advantage automotive is hands down the best experience I’ve ever had with garage. Pep boys estimate for the same fix. was more than 3 times as much as these guys, no joke! The owner Burt and another I spoke to were great. Friendly, professional, helpful... I asked them to look at my dad‘s car five minutes before they closed and they jumped right on it. I can’t say enough about these men. If only other businesses took care of their customers this way... I know where I’m going for my future car troubles! Thank you for the phenomenal customer service!
This is the best car repair establishment in town!! Trustworthy, honest, efficient! I never worry when Mr. Burt and his crew have my car. He keeps me up to date and always tells me what I really need and what can wait. I won’t go anywhere else!!
I have been taking my vehicles to Advantage Automotive for all servicing needs for about 10 years now. The staff is always courteous and prompt and the quality of work my vehicles receive is always top notch. Advantage Automotive goes above and beyond to get the work done when I am really counting on them and I know I can trust them.
Knowledgeable and personal, clean and easily accessible . Quick response to get your car in for repair. I have had several repairs done here and have been quite pleased with their service.
Very professional, very friendly and helpful, they helped a lot with my questions and answered everything I had. I will definitely be coming back
Great customer service!! And the guys was great help to service my problem right away!! Thanks Advantage Automotive and Team members Iam able to get back to work right away..
This is a great place. Super friendly service. Even the bathroom was super clean and smelled great! Most importantly, they were able to fix a problem with my truck that another shop overcharged me for and couldnt fix and wouldnt waranty. I trust Burt and Advantage Automotive with my vehicles and my family.
I personally use Advantage Automotive for all my car maintenance and I have referred them to my parents and children. Knowing that your family is being taken care of is very important to me. I know Burt and his guys have my family driving in a safe well maintained car.
As a woman I really appreciate an honest mechanic!! If you are looking for someone who knows their stuff and will not take advantage of you then this is the place to go!! Honest, hard working, small business that you can always count on!
10 stars. Burt & Jason are great. Their shop has always done a great job with repairs on my vehicles. They really explain what needs to be done and do the repairs properly. They also back up their work. Highly recommend.
They were great to workwith! They let me know up front what the cost was and texted or called if anything changed so there was no surprises when I picked up my car.When I need repairs or oil changes in the future I will certainly be using them again. Thank you for such great service it is rare to find now!
Stressing over a mechanic? Dont with these guys. I have had them work on 2 of my vehicles and both times they provided great service. Very personable folks and reasonable.
Affordable and honest. Customer service is great!
Burt and his team are very knowledgeable and honest! Those are 2 qualities that make going to the mechanic a lot easier! I highly recommend Advantage Automotive.
Good first impression to see a shop thats clean and organized. They have successfully diagnosed and fixed 100 % of the problems with a Jeep Im rebuilding. Ive referred other friends with mystery problems with their vehicles. They got the same success that I did.
Locally and Family owned and managed! Can tell they truly care. They do NOT try to rip you off and get you to get more done than you need. As a woman who wouldn’t know what I need, this is so comforting! On the other end of that they also let you know what you might need done in future but do not pressure you!
My regular shop highly recommended Advantage Automotive when I needed front axle seals replaced on F250 4x4. I phoned ahead and was given a rough estimate that was actually less than expected, took truck in same day, got a call with final price before work began, got updates on the work and my truck was ready to go next day. I was also assisted with transportation... Great people and great experience and I will certainly trust them with future repair needs !!
Friendly and courteous knowledgeable and for the most part a clean shop
The only place I’ll take my car! Timely repairs and services with a picnic table outside so my kids can run around and do school work at while we wait.
Super honest and fair, also very nice and helpful. I brought my truck in because I smelled gas. After a smoke test and an inspection it turned out there was no gas leak. I asked for an oil change while we were at it. They did the oil change at a very low rate and didnt even charge me for the time it took to do the smoke test and the inspection. Ill be coming back here!
Great experience, reasonably priced, great communication.
My husband and his family have been going to Advantage Automotive on Jacksonville Road in Ocala for years. My husband has Raved about them since Ive known him and today I got to see first hand why he does.Needing more then we should to be fixed or taken care of on our Grand Marquis we called Advantage Automotive a couple of days ago and told them the Problems that needed fixing and the Necessities we had been slacking on. We spoke to BURT who was VERY helpful and had more of a Genuine Premier Customer Service Attitude then many, if not most. He was patient with us and made sure to cover things from A to Z as far as the availability of any parts needed and accurate pricing. Burt set up an appointment for us to bring our car in and did so working around our busy schedule.When we arrived at Advantage Automotive we were Greeted by a friendly man named Jason. There was NO unnecessary stalling and our Time was appreciated and not wasted. Jason showed us where the waiting area was and Burt was REALLY great at making sure we were comfortable and occupied with real conversation. I have to say, them having speedy service is an understatement. It was not even an hour that we were there and they were done. As if they couldnt have been any more wonderful they surprised us Because there was so much to be done on our car we had to split the work into two different days but The Awesome Guys there are so AMAZING that they got almost EVERYTHING but a couple of things being done this one visit.The guys at Advantage Automotive are extremelyProfessional, very helpful genuine honest and reliable. Their work is pristine and their word is trustworthy. They value your time and your business and I promise you after you go there once you will be a customer of theirs for the rest of your life.
Advantage was recommended by a relative and I must say that I was very pleased. Everyone was very friendly, the place is very clean and the service was fast and honest. Would not hesitate to use them again.
Ive been with Advantage Automotive since they opened. The staff is honest and they communicate well with their customers. If your car has issues they wont sugar coat it. Theres not many auto shops around who you can trust. Take advantage of Advantage Automotive .Mark MacDonald
Jason and Burt always take great care of my vehicle and me! Thank you.
They have always been available when we need them and are upfront on all costs. No hidden costs!
As usual, I am a very happy camper!!! Giving AA 10 excellent stars....they go beyond their call of duty!!! Forever a customer!!! Deanna McClain 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Advantage did an awesome job servicing my Jeep Cherokee! I was greeted promptly by one of their friendly associates, Burt. He checked-in my vehicle while listening to my concerns (I drive a 2003 model) about its performance. I was then given a work time as to when the Jeep would be ready. Not only did the associates meet that time, they exceeded it! A quick examination for other sevices (belts, transmission, brakes, etc.) was also done so I could plan for future needs. During this time none of the associates made me feel pressured into services I didnt want or need. Everything was explained to my understanding (I am not mechanically inclined ) as to what was done and what was need next. Advantage will forever be my mechanics!
They have been working any my company vehicles for years. They always fix it right with great rates. I drive an hour out of my way to have them fix my vehicle because I know it will be done right
I love bringing my truck here to get serviced.they are always on top there job.and let you know what repairs are needed to make youre vehicle function 100%.I highly recommend anyone to bring there vehicle here to be serviced.
Awesome staff!! Always get the job done quickly and affordably 😀 Highly recommend using their shop for all your automotive needs. 🚗🚙
Burt Smith and the team at Advantage Automotive are the best! Reliable, reasonable and thorough. Highly recommend them.
I am so thankful for a place I can take my truck and not worry about being overcharged! Wonderful shop. Very clean and professional.
The owner and staff take excellent care of my vehicle and me. Love them!
Great service for a good price, I will bring my truck back for all future repairs!
Only Auto shop to go to honest and on time also affordable ! Trust me go no where else 😎
Advantage Automotive has the best mechanics in town, and most importantly honest and fair prices. I have been taking my service trucks and personal vehicles to them for years. No worries!
Advantage Automotive is the ONLY local shop that I will refer my friends and clients to. Owner, Kevin Davis employs the best of the best who are paid well and NOT on commission. Their only goal is to fix your vehicle right the First time, On time at the price quoted. Estimates are ALWAYS FREE. With Advantage Automotive you get the service you pay for...and then some!
A wonderful car maintenance experience! Jason is very knowledgeable and professional. And the prices are very reasonable. I will definitely be back!!
Honest mechanics. Need I say more. Okay I will. On my fathers side most of my uncles and cousinsare professional mechanics. Advantage Automotive is where I take all of my vehicles for maintenance and repair. So should you...
Outstanding and excellent service. Im very satisfied with all the work they performed on my Kia Soul. Contact Burt as his team for all your service needs.
I cannot say enough about the guys at Advantage Automotive!!! I have been trusting my vehicle maintenance and repairs to this shop for 5+ years now and do not mind giving them my money because I know they are honest about what my SUV needs to have done and they keep me on the road!
Always excellent professional service. Thank you!
Though Jason is family, I have a new car with a warranty still and would never trust anyone except the guys at Advantage Automotive to work on my stuff. Not even the dealership. Jason and the team there will always take care of you!
I Have five vehicles and all of them come here for work, they are the best at what they do and run a professional business with great mechanics and you always know the work is done right .
Very professional and trustworthy
Best Ford doctor, and other makes.
Kevin and his guys are the ABSOLUTE BEST mechanics in Ocala. They can work and fix anything on wheels. 2 4 or more it does not matter. Everything I drive goes there. Excellent work and they stand behind what they do.
Have always had a positive experience and excellent work done on my vehicles.
Kevin and Jason are extremely helpful! I just moved from Orlando and Im skeptical on where I take my vehicle. Kevin gave me a FREE estimate over the phone, I took it in he took it for a test drive and was right. He charged me 100$ cheaper then any other place in Ocala! I highly recommend on giving his team the time to work on your automobile. He saves you half the time and money!
Advantage Automotive is courteous, knowledgeable and fair. I travel from The Villages for their services!
I would highly recommend Advantage Automotive, because they are honest, reasonable prices, and do the work in a timely manner.
Ridiculous! Had my car for over a week and kept saying the wrong part came in! Youd think if they were getting paid thousands they would order the correct parts and not make me wait for my car for a week. Go elsewhere for big jobs.
Good honest work
Very reliable and they do great work.
They always take care of my jeep for a great price and the first time.
These are the guys you can trust to give you honest advice and treat you right. Professional, courteous, and caring.
Great job! You guys
The best auto repair shop around!
Great service and Jason is a very nice guy
Clean shop. Friendly staff
Jason and his crew are the best!
Good owner awesome person
