The battery died on our only car. It took me a few hours to get it towed with our roadside assistance and Billy still got me in and completed well before closing even with a second battery that was hard to get to needing to be replaced.. All communication was done over the phone and Billy did an excellent job of keeping me well informed. Great service at a fair price. I even got a follow up call from the owner the next day. Gary has our business in the future for sure.
Great attitudes, first time ever to experience a car mechanic issue. $1250 to fix my truck after it was diagnosed. That amount did not fix the issue it was brought in for. I took it back 30 mins after picking it up and was told it would get taken care of. The owner even claimed to look at it. The shop never called me with updates, I called them every week and even went by twice. Was told it was an issue they had to figure out, then that they were short handed. I drove by the place everyday twice to and from work. Never in 4 extra weeks did I see my truck in the shop. It was parked outback the entire time. Great place that gladly took my money, however did not complete the task, or provide the service I needed -fixing the truck. Sad ending to what was looking like a great experience. I am new to town and this was my first dealing with a Pensacola auto mechanic. Not a great showing, wish it ended better so I could have sang praises but same issues with the truck and light over a thousand dollars. Will not go back, ever!
Ive lived in Pensacola for three years now and have been fortunate enough not to have any major vehicle issues. When my truck went down last week I asked all my friends where I should go because I had no idea. Nearly everybody said I should go to Gary Sapp Automotive... and now that will be the answer when somebody asks me to recommend a mechanic. My appointment was set up for this morning, and by this evening I had my truck back in working order. Price was fair, work was fast, and everyone I interacted with was courteous and professional. This is literally everything you could want for automotive services.
Needed a new flywheel and clutch in my Mini Cooper, called 7 or 8 transmission and/or foreign car specialists and only one was even willing to look at the car. Gary and his very professional staff had no problem taking my car and the work was completed sooner than they said it would be. VERY IMPRESSED with the quality of the work and turn around times! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Gary and his team for any auto repair needs!!!!
I have been asked for an updated review, here goes.Once a business owner gives you their word that they will make everything right, I feel that you, as a human, are obligated to give them a chance.I have met with the mechanic responsible for getting my Jeep back on the road and I 100% believe that he, Scott, will make it happen.Gary Sapp is a very nice, respectful person, as is Scott. Thank you for that. The only thing I have an issue about is the unprofessional conduct of one person in particular. We all know who that is. I wont call them out. Gary witnessed their rude and unprofessional behavior. An apology would be nice but not expected. This is the perfect opportunity to teach certain folks basic customer service. Thank you again, Scott and Gary for making things right.
We own an automotive repair shop in Minnesota and were down here on vacation and our wheel bearing went out. Gary and his Professional staff took immediate care of us! As a proud shop owner believe when we say we Highly recommend Gary Sapp Automotive repair for all your automotive needs.Five Stars Gary, wed give 6 stars if possible! We are extremely pleased in how exceptionally well you operate your business.Thank You all!!
Gary took the time to check my vehicle personally and did everything he could to make sure I was good to go. Grateful for their hard work and the ice cold A/C blowing in my car again!
Review Gary Sapp AutomotiveWe had a breakdown when in our Class C motor home near Pensacola I -10 We contacted our Coach-Net roadside assistance service. Within a couple of hours we were towed to the Coach-Net recommended repair shop - Gary Sapp Automotive We were told by Coach-Net that it could take a day or two because the shop was very busy. . Gary and his staff quickly diagnosed the problem . They went out of their way to accommodate us. The next morning a service technician A.J. performed the repair while we stayed in our motor home. By twelve oclock (midday) we were on the road again.I highly recommend Gary Sapp Automotive for their professional expertise and excellent work. When we arrived at our next campground we even got a phone call from Gary Sapp Automotive to check on us This is what I call pure professionalism.Thanks again Gary Sapp Automotive for your help and assistance.
They are a very honest and respectful business. The owner goes above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy. They are a very nice and a pleasant place to deal with.
AAA sent Gary Sapp Automotive to change my tire. They worked quickly and were very helpful and polite. Definitely would use them again.
Gary personally has helped me with several vehicles. One was my mother’s car and he helped me put a window motor in it at his shop on a Saturday. After my father in law died tragically in a boating incident Gary had his tow truck pick up the vehicle at the river and delivered to my mother in-laws house. A very giving man and willing to help when people are down.
Best repair shop in the area. Honest, reliable and always there when you need them. Cant ask for better service.
Tyler with Gary Sapp’s Automotive was very fast and efficient coming to check out my truck when it wouldn’t start. He arrived in less than half an hour, and found my battery was bad. Tyler had a new one installed promptly. I couldn’t ask for better service! We really appreciated it! I even made it to my appointment on time. :-)
Gary and his team are knowledgeable, efficient, skilled and experienced! I am treated with respect and dignity and appreciate the professionalism! Great work!
I dropped my car off a week ago and was treated very poorly was given the run around and never contacted about what was wrong with my vehicle. I did all the calling because my car was sitting for a week until I finally got answers when it came to them speaking with my warranty company they didn’t even tell me my claim was denied until after I had to call and find out my self. The lady at Gary Sapp had a attitude when I asked her what was going on with my car. If I have car trouble in the future I will definitely not put a dime in they pocket. Bad service and poor attitudes. I towed my car away from them.
My husband has worked for them on and off for the past 3 years and I can say of all the companies hes been with these folks have always treated us like family. In my opinion they are the best mechanical service center in the pensacola area. Great prices and they always take care of everyone that they welcome into there shop
Super professional and responsive on repairs. Highly recommend!
Always professional and as quick as can be possible! A good group of people!!! Recommendation would be actually Seven Stars instead of 5
Very helpful group. Used service before but never visited shop. Plans to visit again.
They were polite and friendly. Fixed my car in a timely manner and I was able to walk away with my arms and legs. Will go back.
Fixed it right the first time. The only place to go in Pensacola for a Master Mechanic experience.
Used for brakes and have had no issues. Timely service.
I brought a commercial vehicle in to Gary sapp automotive on a last minute ordeal . I looked at the issue myself and had two of my mechanics look at the problem with no luck of resolving the issue. Gary and his team found the issue immediately it was an air temp sensor in the mirror of the vehicle, they had the parts sent over night. It’s truly worth taking your vehicle to a professional shop like Gary sapp automotive, we highly recommend !!
Professional and extremely knowledgeable! I can’t say enough about the quality of service from Gary Sapp and his team.
Show up when they say they will. Great service! Hope I dont need the service again😂 but when I do I wont hesitate to cal.
Ive trusted Gary and his team with my vehicle since weve moved to Pensacola, and have not been disappointed. We can rely on general servicing being done same day, and with care. Ive come to get to know Gary personally through business networking in the community - I can confidently say he truly cares for his community, and their safety, without ripping us off. Hell also tow you at any hour, any day of the week without question. Highly recommend Gary Sapp Automotive services!
Nothing less than professional and excellent service by everyone.
Its never fun when you have to get a tow for your car breaking down but Corey made the stress and worry go away with his exceptional customer service.He was the fastest tow call Ive ever experienced with how quickly he showed up. He went above and beyond with his skills getting the car onto the tow bed.I still wish I could have helped with the pushing of the car but Corey made me aware of the liability it was to help and made sure that he put the safety and rules of it a top priority!!! I will definitely be recommending Gary Sapp to anyone needing a tow or any services in the automotive/mechanical situation!!!Thank You Again Corey!!
Jeremy is a fantastic guy! He called me in advance of arriving at my location to tow the Trailblazer. He was very polite and patient on the telephone. His warm voice comforted me. He has compassion for the clients. Well done, Jeremy! I can tell that you work hard because you care about people
Mr. Sapp has done so much for me. Very Professional and a Very patient person. Im his problem child, am having work done on my vehicle, he has run into a little problem, however he is working very hard for me to get it finished up for us. He has always been very diligent and easy to work with. He is a very busy and hard worker and his people are very helpful. I am an old lady, but i Greatly appreciate him and his work. As I said with my vehicle they have run into a glitch. But he will get it resolved i have no doubt, if anyone can he can. And I cant wait, he deserves a Reward for the headache Ive been, but hes the Best!!! Thank you Mr. Sapp
Gary and his team are very professional and are going to take care of your vehicle the first time you visit his shop. He will not put a Ban-aid on it, so you have to come back. He has been in the business so long his reputation proceeds him. If you want you vehicle fixed by a honest shop. Go See Gary Sapp Automotive.
Honest . That’s what everyone wants in an automotive service. You will not be disappointed. They are very busy so it took some time to get an appointment . They are worth the wait.
Gary has assisted us many times. He and his crew are excellent at what they do. They are trustworthy. They even told me that one of my vehicles was not economically prudent to repair and to trade it in. That is above and beyond service. I was stranded in need of a tow and they were there within minutes. I count on Gary Sapp Automotive.
I broke down on I-10, Gary and his team got my F-250 Super Duty on the road in record time. awesome company.
Great very professional very honest good people. An excellent at what they do
Eric with Gary Sapp’s Automotive was very fast and efficient coming to pick up our truck when we requested a tow through AAA. We really appreciated it!
I had two excellent experiences with Gary Sapp Automotive. The first was when my car needed to be towed. Before towing he took a look at my car and was able to diagnose the issue, unlike the shop I was regularly using. After that experience, I decided to just take my car to them the next time instead of going back to the other shop in the area. GSA was able to determine the issue pretty quickly, Ryan was kind enough to go over the needed repairs in detail, and then they finished the repairs a lot earlier than estimated. I highly recommend them and the next time I need someone to look at my car, I now know exactly who to call.
We have used Gary Sapp Automotive several times over the years. Always willing to make it happen and help.
Service was done in a fast and professional manner. Staff was very pleasent and I would recommend his shop as aplace to go to
Called AAA due to a flat tire this past week over on Navy and 98. Needed someone to change the tire. AAA called Gary Sapp Automotive. The Service tech that came to change the tire was very professional and very quick. I hope I am not spelling his name wrong, but here goes, Tyroo.. he was so nice and polite. Thank you! Mrs. John Scherrer
So impressed with service here! Warm welcome, caring conversation about issues I am having and then timely work at a fair price! I would not ask for more!! Great service. I highly recommend coming here for routine maintenance and larger issues!!!
I stopped by early Monday with a minor problem. Not only was Gary Sapp auto open, one of their technicians came outside spent about five minutes and helped me with the problem on my truck. I left much safer. The bar on my towing hitch was loose and I didn’t have a pipe wrench with me. I know where to go now when I need some help with my truck. Super Service. THANKS.
When I called to ?? the towing chgs Billy was a real Sapp.Very UNprofessional.
If you are looking for great workmanship, then choose Gary Sapp Automotive!
Top notch customer service! Gary and his staff are always attentive and helpful to each of their customers needs or wants! They take special care in making sure the job gets done right and in a timely manner! Wouldnt expect anything less from them! I recommend them to my family and friends because I know they will be leaving with a safe and reliable vehicle!
The employees are friendly and easy to deal with. They make sure that they understand what your concerns are, and provide options to assure the best service possible. Their knowledge and quality of work is refreshing and exceptional. I highly recommend their service.
Mr Sapp fixed our RV without complications and went the extra mile by providing useful information we needed! I highly recommend him and his shop.
I put in a call for help. 1 call. They rescued me and my diesel dually company vehicle from the side of the interstate PDQ! Then, they delivered it to my office exactly like I asked. Perfect help when and where i wanted it. They will be my first call if I ever need towing help again. Thank you Gary Sapp.
Gary and his team are always friendly,helpful and honest. The quality of their work speaks for itself. I highly recommend anyone needing mechanical work to go to them. You will never look for another mechanic in town.
I have had my vehicle serviced a few times, oil changes, tires, etc. Fantastic and quick service every time and at reasonable fair prices. Best mechanics in town! Top notch service!
Excellent service, very knowledgeable and is going to be my permanent go to shop for all of my personal vehicles. Awesome and highly recommend!
Got my car serviced here. This is the place you need to go for honesty and integrity. Very happy with my experience here.
The service here was excellent. Everyone I dealt with here went above and beyond to help me out. These folks were reasonably priced, the work was done quickly, and they were upfront about the work that needed to be done and the pricing. I stopped at Gary Sapp Automotive because my car was about to die and leave me stranded and this was the first auto shop I saw. I will go back here because my experience was an excellent one.
Great place to get all your vehicle maintenance needs. Also if you need a tow we can arrange that for you as well. Just call Gary Sapp Automotive and one of there professional employees will set you up with a tow with there experienced tow truck operators and treat you like family. Serving the Pensacola area and the best AAA approved service provider hands down. So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and give them a call for all your vehicle needs.
God forbid yet another car of mine breaks down but if it does, I’ll only use this place for towing. The lady that came out to help us last Friday was wonderful to me and my sons and we are very thankful that we got her that day.
1st time customer. Charged me almost $1000 for an alignment a battery and 1-left front wheel hub. Ridiculous!
Im newer to the area, and its hard to find a good trusty mechanic these days (so it seems anyway). Gary and his staff did an awesome job taking care of my needs - getting me in with a time crunch before a road trip to have my vehicle serviced and new tires. They did an excellent job, and offered reasonable prices with a number of options for me to choose from. Dont think Ill take our family vehicles anywhere else, they set the bar pretty high at Gary Sapp Automotive!
Been going to Garys since hes had a shop. Gary is one of the most honest and conscientious mechanics Ive ever met.He once spend hours of his own time searching for the cause of a recurring problem on my old Nissan just because he couldnt stand to see it leave the shop again without knowing it was fixed for good.You dont get that level of commitment from most mechanics, in my experience.
Gary sapps team did an outstanding job with Quality and honest work.
I ended up here through AAA. I needed a battery replacement, we found out the old one was discontinued. Garys went out of their way (at no charge) to find something in town that would fit and had it picked up and bought to the shop so I can have a working car when I left. Genuine people, genuine care and compassion for customers. I highly recommend them esp. if youre just a girl with 0 knowledge of all things car. lol!
Zero stars. Told me they’d fix my vehicle and they simply didn’t. Instead, they left me stuck in between GS and Peach, wondering why I’m without my vehicle. I thought these guys were reputable...turns out they’re just like the rest. Bad service and no one takes responsibility.
Excellent repair quality and top notch customer service. I had some parts that needed to be ordered for my repair that took a couple days to arrive. They kept me in the loop the entire time. I got my car back yesterday, and it is running like a dream.
Great customer service!! I took my vehicle to have the battery checked. Gary himeself came over to take a look at my vehicle, he had them check my alternator and clean out my throttle body!! Top notch customer service!!!
I want to thank the guy I can’t remember his name but he was very professional on the phone and was willing to drop what I was doing to give me a quote on fixing my car today. Any service work I need from now on will be going to Gary Sapp!!! I can’t thank you all enough.
Gary Sapp has been servicing the bus and van for Grace Child Development Center since 2017. The service is excellent and the owner, Gary, is very involved and makes sure you are satisfied. I love that they always try to get my vehicles in and out while making sure everything is ready to go for me to provide service for the families that are depending on me. Thanks, Gary Sapps!
If you ask around Pensacola who’s the Best in auto repair, Gary Sapp is the first one mentioned & top of mind...for good reason. Every time I visit the shop, I see something else that they fix besides cars (RVs, commercial vehicles, little trucks, big trucks, vans of all types). The owner is hands on and has dozens of certifications. This place can obviously fix anything & everything. I get the oil changed on my suv here but feel 100% confident the man can fix anything. Wouldn’t go anywhere else at this point. They also are down to earth and not pretentious, what you see is what you get. Nice people
Close to home reliable and good
The truck had been to previous places and I was told that there is nothing wrong with it. Gary was able to diagnose what was wrong with the front suspension on my truck. Very friendly staff they worked with my extended warranty insurance policy and they set up an appointment time to repair my truck. My truck was fixed in the timeline they gave me. I am very please with the level of professionalism and honesty that Gary Sapp Automotive has. Thank you Gary for fixing my truck and I will be using you guys again!
I am so happy to find a mechanic shop I can trust! There guys are honest and dependable. They even have 24 hour towing. They got strait to the problem, no fluff, and were mostly concerned about making sure my vehicle was safe for me to drive. They even called to check on me and my car after they had completed the service! Their customer service and honesty really sets them apart from anywhere else Ive ever been. I recommend them to everyone.
Needed to have my car serviced they were helpful and knowledgeableas to what needed to be done. The cost was very reasonable. I will be back and recommend them highly.
Thanks for coming to our rescue when our car just quit working. You all were life savers. Stranded in the median/turn lane on a busy road. Thanks Travis for such a great tow.
Terrible experience. Mr. Sapp is a very rude and condescending man. I think he is out of practice at being a decent human being.
I was in a bind having to leave town for work and my rear brakes were grinding and making a terrible noise, I called them and they got me right in even tho they were swamped with work. The price was amazing and the owner Gary Sapp is as reliable as his work which is miles above the competition! Will never go anywhere else other than Gary Sapp Automotive, I would give them 10 stars if I could!
Easy scheduling, great service, friendly staff and clean facility. Thank you so much!
I trust Gary and his staff with all of my families vehicles. They are very welcoming here. When you need whats wrong with your vehicle broken down to simplest terms (like I tend to need) they have always been happy to walk me through every step that is needed, recommend, or what to keep an eye on for the future. Strongly recommend Gary Sapp Automotive!
Gary Sapp Automotive is absolutely the BEST tow truck and mechanic shop you will find in Pensacola!!! I fully trust these guys with my vehicles and they have absolutely the BEST tow truck drivers!!! Travis and Randy are so very well mannered and kind, they go above and beyond their call of duty to help out people in their community!!! I HIGHLY RECCOMEND GARY SAPP AUTOMOTIVE!!!
I have used Gary Sapp Automotive for many years. My battery died Tuesday afternoon during threatening weather with my windows rolled down. Gary Sapp drove to my location to try to jump it off then had another employee bring out a new battery and installed it for me all within 30 minutes of calling. Gary Sapp and his crew are professional, courteous and reasonably priced. I will continue to recommend their services and will see them for my next oil change soon.
Great service
Gary is an awesome guy and I trust him with my vehicle. He take great of his customers. Highly recommend!
Great place, honest feedback! Took my Forester in for an oil change and 50k service; asked them to investigate a noise from the front-end. Oil change and 50k service was smooth and they replaced brake pads giving me several options for cost vs performance. Diagnosed the noise as an issue with transmission but went the extra mile to call and see if the issue was still under warranty, which it was. Rather than try and sell me a costly repair, Gary Sapp recommended I take it to the dealer to see if the issue was covered under warranty first. Likely saved me alot of money. Definitely recommend!
Very professional, honest, and helpful! Will definitely return if Im in the area!
These guys were very fast, very professional common and very very much appreciated. Thank you Tyrell with Gary Sapp automotive
Excellent service! We had repairs done in Georgia and the the compressor died after 2 weeks. We came to Gary Sapps as a gold certified Napa auto care center, and I was very impressed. They got the parts quickly and Jimmie helped me get ahold of the Napa center since the part was under warranty, and the repairs were done in a mere 5 hours, instead of 24-36 hours I expected. I would highly recommend this mechanic to anyone in the Pensacola area.
Gary and his staff do great work on diagnosing and repairing our fleet vehicles. Knowing the certifications and continuing education that they complete is reassuring that the job will be done RIGHT. Two thumbs up for these guys. Dont hesitate to have them repair your vehicle.
Very pleasant to work with. Worked me in. Great work, good price.
My 2004 F-150 had a starting problem for over a year, one place told me coil packs, another charge me over $200 said it was battery (nope), another place told me it was the keys fault charged me $500 and told me to get new ignition switch & keys (nope), instead I took it to Sapp Auto, Ryan (I think) called me next day said it was spark plugs, YEP, that was it. Starts great every time. Thanks!
Only real master mechanics in town!Honest evaluation and fair pricing.Would not take my vehicles anywhere else for service!!
I had to use AAA yesterday to get my vehicle moved. It was a hard job due to the year and model of the year. They worked hard and were very professional. The two guys that assisted me went over and beyond to assist me. They did a great job!
Super fast quality service
We use Gary Sapp for maintenance on all our vehicles. They are very trustworthy and helpful and always do a great job! Very dependable and great service every time we use them.
Sketchy at best.Didnt do what I asked but vaguely did other stuff.Expensive, slow, dont call to update on status of repair .Been there in the past, much better then. Not sure what has happened.Very Unlikely I would go back. HonestMechanic.com....lol....right !
Broke down in Milton and got towed her while in town for a festival. They fixed my car and found another major problem as to why the belt was falling off. Friendly staff and clean professional office. Glad they were the recommended AAA certified place. Even called a few days later to check in and make sure I made it safely home.
I have a 1967 Ford truck that is my every day driver and work truck. Gary and his staff know this and every time I come in they treat Ethyl (thats her name) like she is their own, and know that my time is valuable as well. My wife also brings her Subaru in and as some one who knows cars I know they treat her right, dont try to sell her on stuff like muffler belts, hydrocelators, or sprocket springs. If they say your vehicle needs it, it truly does. Not only that but the warranty on parts and service is always honored. I send my friends and family here because I trust them with their safety and service.
I noticed my battery indicator light was on. I stop at the parts store, They check it out( for FREE) and said it was most likely my alternator and to have it checked by a mechanic. So I stopped by Gary Sapp Automotive to have it verified. $58 later they told me the same thing the Parts house told me for FREE. Then, that it it would cost over $600.00 to replace the unit. NO WAY. I went online ordered the replacement unit, went to the parts house picked it up, drove home, removed 2 electrical connections and 3 capscrews, removed the old unit, put the new unit in place installed the 3 screws and 2 electrical connections. Done less then 1 1/2 hours and $200, How does Gary Sapp Automotive get off charging the prices he does?
Great and very efficient service. It may take a while to get an appointment, but did a great job when they got to it.
Great Machanic shop with quality service and friendly as well
Took my mother inlaws van in there and let them know she was traveling the next day. He balanced, rotated and aligned it in time for her to go. After she got back from her 1,000 mile trip she said to thank him because it drove so smooth. Many thanks to Gary Sapp Automotive. You have got a repeat customer!
Zach, dispatched by AAA, was extremely helpful, courteous, and put up with me looking over his shoulder. His service went above and beyond!
Gary Sapp Automotive worked on my Yukon installing an airside conversion kit. They did a. Amazing job! I definitely recommend them for all my vehicle maintenance!
Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Mechanics are awesome.
