They were amazing! They actually finished before they promised. To add, a part went bad and I took the vehicle back and they honored the warranty and replaced the part with no hassles. Just don't find that kind of service any more! I will use them for every repair I ever need.

Make sure you get the quote in writing up front and examine it carefully.  Didn't know they sold tires, didn't really think I needed new tires, didn't think it had anything to do with the shimmy.  Their "road hazard warranty" is thru them....  pretty strange...
Response from Auto Tech Service
"[Member Name Removed], We appreciate your business, as you are well aware having visited our shop we give an estimate of any diagnostic, maintenance, or repair prior to any work being done. We give an estimate very clearly and answer any and all questions concerning it so there is never any need to "read it carefully", it's crystal clear from the beginning. Yes, Auto Tech Service sells tires, you certainly did need tires, if you didn't we wouldn't have recommended them, and you certainly didn't have to buy them. Yes, the "Road Hazard Warranty" was through us, the point of the tire sale...nothing strange about that, perfectly normal. We look forward to serving your car needs in the future as we do for thousands of very satisfied customers every year."

Responsive, professional, courteous staff followed by reasonable prices is why I went there and what I found there. The owner takes pride in his people's work and personally runs the courtesy shuttle. The power steering repair is holding up just fine so far. They also completed work related to a Honda TSB that was related to the same issue. Look forward to relying on them for future repairs.

They never pushed me to buy any product that I don't need or any service that I don't need. They have always been very upfront.

They are very helpful and professional.  They explain their services and approximate cost up front; then follow through with no surprises.  They are prompt and friendly.

I dropped the vehicle off and they performed the inspection during that day. When I picked it up they went over the results with me so I would know what exactly was in need of attention. Everything was acceptable for a good road trip, and the issues could be fixed when I returned.

Made an appointment with the arrangements that I would wait until work was performed unless there was more to do than expected.  I was in and out in less than an hour and I didn't waste any time since they provided WiFi.

The website allows for online scheduling. The entire staff was helpful from the front desk to the mechanic. Gave me an itemized list of repairs and helped me prioritize.

I was satisfied with work. Unlikely to use them again because of location.
Response from Auto Tech Service
"[member name removed], I noticed your comment about location, you may not be aware that we at Auto Tech Service regularly give our customers a ride to home or work if you need to leave their car with us for the day and don't have another way. Many of our thousands of customers every year live or work in another part of Lexington & this often overcomes that problem Robert Lindsey President Auto Tech Service."

I use this company regularly as both of my vehicles are getting a lot of mileage on them.

I have always found them to be perfectly honest and trustworthy.  This particular time they admitted that this was beyond their scope of repair and saw to it that vehicle was sent to a transmission specialist that they trusted.  There was no charge for their work.  when they have done work for me the work has always been outstanding.  While their prices may not be the cheapest in town they are what I consider to be reasonable. 

I have also had the opportunity to use them when there was a problem with the parts that were put on my vehicle.  They went above and beyond what was necessary to stand behind their work.

I have always dealt with Jessie or Michele at AutoTech.  This is the ONLY place I will take my vehicle for service.

Went in for some brake noise. They examined the brakes and determined it was a bracket that was missing from my last brake job. Easy and inexpensive fix and quick results so I decided to let them handle some other maintenance issues. Overall I was very pleased and was impressed with their honesty and quick turnaround. My vehicle has been running great ever since and I plan to use them again in the future.

I like that the techs that work in the back. I like the office staff. They guarantee their work. They usually get it right the first time and if it doesn't suit you, it's no problem to bring it back. They seem to know what they are doing. For an auto repair place, it's as clean as such a place can be. They are efficient. When they tell you it will be ready, it is ready. If something comes up of course, they call you first before they do anything else other than what you had agreed on originally. When they look at your car, they don't just look at that little part that you said was wrong, they actually look at your whole car.

My older Ford truck was leaking antifreeze.  Took it to Auto Tech and found that it had a pinhole in the throttle body freeze plug.  They recommended flushing the system, but after  plugging the throttle body leak they discovered the radiator needed to be replaced.  Because our funds were limited they recommended not flushing at this time, but replacing the radiator.  The job was completed quickly and was around the estimate they gave.

It was great, I dropped off the vehicle in the morning and discussed my issues with Jesse. They took care of my vehicle while I waited and then discussed the current status of my brakes and my tires prior to doing any work. I opted at this time to go ahead and do oil maintenance since it was due by the manufacturer's maintenance schedule, but the brakes were fine and had a temporary noise that should go away. It has gone away since I took in the vehicle just as they said.
