Bruce’s Automotive

Love this place. Have been taking my car there for years. Bruce himself isn’t the most warm and fuzzy man on the planet but really who cares hes not delivering my children hes fixing my car. He knows EVERYTHING about cars and has great advice. IF you want a NO BS place that doesn’t rip you off and charge you for everything under the sun this is the place to go. Put on your big girl panties though cause they aren’t going to serve you starbucks, speak in soothing voices and put you in the spa while you wait lol

I do not recommend this service center as the managers and mechanics at the counter are very unprofessional and rude. They sit there comparing tattoos and texting with their heads down the entire time barely getting up to even greet a customer. The counter is filthy and the men behind are always swearing when I have walked my kids in there. They have zero respect and customer services skills. Anyone can fix cars but what they have to learn is that the customer should be respected and not embarrassed when they bring their cars in. I was waiting at the counter to talk to someone for 10 minutes while the man who I believe runs the place was playing online poker. He could care less and they can acknowledge my thank you after my work was done but they just hand me the receipt and go back to their video poker screen.
Good bye and good luck, I don’t mind paying more at the dealership to be treated like a king.

Bruce is the best mechanic around. He has been keeping my cars in good repair for 15 years. My brothers love his work also. Great work @ fair price.

I have a lot of friends complementing Bruce for outstanding place to repair your car…

Gotta say that Bruce will fix your vehicle for a very fair price. Never felt ripped-​off or talked down to. Just don’t rush the master.

I have been going to Bruce’s Automotive for 11 years.
It started when I had a Chevy Blazer that had serious electrical problems. I took it everywhere and spent a lot of money, it was never fixed. A friend suggested taking it to Bruce’s. The problem was solved, repaired and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg.
A couple of years after that, the same pain in the ass Blazer wouldn’t start (I just had shoulder surgery) Bruce came and towed the car to his shop, fixed it, returned it, and handed me the keys.
Over the years we have had a MINIMUM of four cars in my household and each and everyone of them has had to make a visit to Bruce’s and each and everytime they have been returned, completely repaired and I still have money in my pocket.

You guys have done a GREAT job on my car for years and you’ve always gotten it done very quick (probably because I’m a pain is the ass) but seriously this terrible attitude that you have towards me and everyone else is going to drive business away.
5 Stars for a job well done (and for being honest)… –2 stars for attitude.
Tim (or Jim) is super nice so if you do go to Bruce’s I hope you get to speak/​deal with him.

Do I want to engage in a deep, meaningful conversation with my auto mechanic?
Not really.
Do I want my vehicle fixed correctly and not get ripped-​off?
Most definitely!
That’s what you get from Bruce’s.
The mechanics are FAR from warm and fuzzy.
The office space is FAR from «Home & Garden.»
I’m not going there for tea & crumpets… I want my car fixed… dammit!
A little on the pricey side, it might take a little longer to get your car back, but here is one perfect example of «you get what you pay for!‘
Whatever problem I have with my vehicle, it has ALWAYS been corrected properly, without having to give up my firstborn.

I’m not sure what the deal is. He seems to know a lot, but he’s got a very bad attitude almost bitter toward his customers. On several occasions he’s had a very bad attitude with my mother and grandmother (come on it’s grandma!) I told them not to go back after that. The service is … well … spotty — the actual work is really good, but the wait times to get a car fix are absurd cars sit on t he lot waiting to get fixed for days before they even get to them and when they do the attitude is like you are hassling them.
Pros: Decent Repair
Cons: Time/​Delays, Very Negative Attitude
Cost: $$ of 5
Overall Rating: 3 of 5
Recommendation: Skip them
