Well, I thought this repair shop was fair but they turned out to be just the same as the others' (thieves'). 12/27/18 my grandmother passed. When I was returning from GA I started hearing a noise coming from the right side of my SUV. I arrived back to Jville safely but the next day I attempted to go to the store and there was a loud scraping noise coming from the right side of my vehicle. I phoned this shop and he was nice enough to drive over and tell me what it possibly may be because I was afraid to drive it. He told me it was ok to drive it so I took it to his shop. I asked to be shown what was going on it he kindly did. I dropped the truck off in the AM. The vehicle was finished prior to the shop closing the same day. Calipers, rotors and breaks' is what the receipt displayed. I phoned this shop to tell him I am having the same problem, he said it is still under warranty. I took the car to another shop for a free diagnoses and shortly afterwards decided it was not in my best interest to take it back to this repair shop. So I took it to another shop (thieves) I asked them to show me the problem and give me the parts. Only one caliper was done and I had no back breaks, and only one rotor was replaced($845.00) for a job not even half done. If the shop would have replaced both calipers I would not have the same repair bill. Do you buy one tire, replace one break, one rotor or one caliper. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! This is not the way you should do thing. This shop lacks integrity. DO NOT GO HERE.Also when I phoned the shop to discuss the repairs on the receipt it states 5 brake pads (///) he says that the quantity section has no relevance. THE WORK THAT YOU DID ON MY CAR HAD NO RELEVANCE. DO NOT GO TO THIS REPAIR SHOP!!!!!

Bad service, Brought my son's car for service and when we picked up the car nothing was done. The car was doing exactly the same Rough idling . I called him and of course he said it was fine after he worked on it . He said to bring it back but now we had to wait for a whole week just to see when he was available. We drove instead and guess what no one was there. Finally I talked to him and he gave me the runaround telling me that he was slammed and couldn't get to until Monday and when my son went there Monday morning of course no one was there the shop was closed. I decided to take the car to another shop where they told me that they left the ignition coil all loose and that's why it was rough idling.I had to pay another Car shop to get my son's car fixed the right way. I think that was bait and switch and really bad service especially after Kevin charged my son in advance before he even touch the car. I should've known better.If you have a car that need service don't take it to accelerated Automotive cause you're going to get scammed.

We've been going to see Kevin at Accelerated Auto for probably 5 years now. They've done the transmissions on two of our vehicles and we've had great results. The only drawback for us is that they are on the other side of town from us. We overcame that hurdle today, however. Recently we'd had trouble with another vehicle's transmission. There is a ship that is closer to where we live and we took it there a few weeks ago in order to 'save time'. Well, after the visit things just kept getting worse with the transmission as it started making a whining noise when you accelerated. This morning I called Kevin and asked if he had time to take a look at it. He quickly noticed that the fluids were nearly 4 quarts low on the transmission! I don't know if the other shop was trying to set us up for a rebuild but I personally had checked the fluids prior to taking it to them a few weeks ago and they weren't low. The other shop has lost us as customers and Accelerated Auto has won us for life!

Kevin hands down BEST MECHANIC in town!!! I have been going to him for years. I love his work I won't let anyone else touch my car but kevin at accelerated automotive. He's honest, hardworking and very reliable. I have recommended several family and friends to him and they loved his work. Kevin is definitely the peoples champ!!! Thank you Kevin for your outstanding customer service and stellar work on all sorts of vehicles.

  • Robert Dumaop

My 3rd time bringing a vehicle to Kevin. He has always been fair and lower priced than anywhere else. He got me right in this morning and didn't do any unnecessary repairs just to make a buck. Finding a good mechanic is hard but look no further if ya need one. Thanks again for always looking out for us. Front brake rotors and pads replaced as well as an oil change and overall inspection of my vehicle.

  • Jennifer Castellazzi

Kevin came recommended to me by O'Reilly's in Mandarin. I'm glad they referred me! Kevin is hardworking and honest. Prices are great! If you're looking to be coddled and hand held, you're at the wrong place, you can go to your Dealership for that. Kevin tells you straight and stands behind his work. Thank you Kevin!

  • Sabrina Alvarez

My sister referred me to here after she was referred by someone else! My car is my problem child and Kevin has been beyond helpful! After being overcharged at other shops and having their parts fall apart on me, I ONLY take my car to Accelerated Automotive now. I trust them and know they will get it fixed right!

  • Andrew S

Amazing shop and very honest guy. Kevin took care of all my cars and always tells me if I need something or if I can wait. I found him due to a need for a second opinion and he was recommended. He took a look and his quote was 2k under the other shop. I highly recommend Accelerated to all.

  • Edward Jobs

The guy I met told he works only weekdays and he is working on Sunday. Disappointed to hear that. All I want is oil change and some body work and he asked me to come weekdays. I found another good place and I don't need to visit this place anymore. Opportunity missed is opportunity lost.

  • Karen Boatwright

Kevin (owner) is a little rough around the edges, but honest and good. Prices are unbeatable. Typically turns around most jobs on the same day. No frills kind of place, but I highly recommend you give him a try. This has been my mechanic for the past 3 years. I trust him 100%.

  • Capt Flynt

Full disclosure: Kevin is a good friend so I am probably a bit biased. However, I send all of my military friends to him for vehicle services and they are always happy. He is fair with his prices and believes in helping people.

  • Stephan Boring

kevin did the window regulator on my truck and charged me way less then everyone else quoted and he got in done in less then a hour! amazing customer service and i will be sending everyone i know to him from now on

  • Keena Lampkins

Kevin has been my mechanical for the last ten years. He is a trustworthy and excellent mechanic that’s works hard to keep his customers happy. You won’t be disappointed if you gave accelerated auto a try...

  • Patricia Rench

This place doesn't deserve a 1 star. He rooked us out $4000.00 by representing the motor as a rebuilt with a warranty. It was a lie and he did not provide the warranty work. Dishonest person.

  • Tincey Howard

The owner is friendly, knowledgeable, honest, fast, and has fair prices. What more could anyone ask for in this crazy world we live in today. These qualities are hard to find.

  • bree

Really appreciate how down to earth and straight forward Kevin is. Affordable and honest and will never go to another mechanic again! 10/10 would recommend.

  • Ed Harper

Showed up for a simple oil change at 8AM because he said that's the only time he would do it...He never showed up, I just left after 15 mins . …

  • Corey Dove

Always honest and reasonable pricing . They actually care and dont try and take advantage of you like the overpriced dealerships.
