Ahrens Auto Service

I literally can’t say enough great things about Aherns Auto Service. I needed a minor repair and the owner showed me what was broken, explained what they were going to do, and finished the repair in 15 minutes. They were honest, efficient, and charged me less than I paid for my last oil change. Best auto service I have ever received! Thank you Aherns!

Quick fast friendly service! Dave at the front office got me squared away real quick with an diagnostics of my radiator. I was quite impressed that they called me back within the hour with a quote and discount here through Unilocal.Also he allowed me to leave my car with him while I dropped the Honda off because I still had a warranty with another shop. If I need a shop to go to in the future it will definetly be this one here in Gainesville.

I was super satisfied with my service. These guys are straight shooters, they tell you what’s wrong with your car and you know what you’re getting. I’ll definitely come back!

I had my spark plugs replaced on my Honda Accord. I had called the day before and was given an estimate. When I arrived the parts were there, the work was performed in the time period they had specified and the work was completed for less than their estimate. They were recommended to me by a man that has raced cars for over 40 years and they maintain his vehicles. I am completely satisfied and will use them for all my automotive repairs.

I’ve been taking my Honda to these guys for a few years now. The never try and sell you something you don’t need and if you do need something they’ll explain everything to you and let you make the decision. Recently I took my Honda in because a headlight was burnt out. They had replaced this same headlight 8 months before. The did some tests and determined the bulb was not a good quality bulb and they replaced it free of charge. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.

THE ONLY PLACE for your Nissan 240,260,280 & 3XX Z-​Cars! Whether its your daily driver or you race competitively they can accommodate you. This is where the pros come for proper set-​up and race prep. They have the skills and equipment to provide service & repairs on all Asian vehicles too. I’ve known Don Ahrens for more than 25 years. David and Mike are top-​shelf auto pros too. I’m also an automotive professional with 32 years experience-​I recognize excellence when I see it. They have the proper tooling, continuing education, pride in their craft to give excellence & value to their customers. They’re just flat out good folks to do business with.

Down in Gainesville visiting family when the heat in my car went out. Ok, I know that it doesn’t get that COLD in Florida, but since I was heading back to PA eventually I wanted it fixed.
Not only did they fix it, they did it for a lot less than I thought it would be. In the end I found fast, honest, reasonable service here and would recommend Ahrens to anyone without hesitation.

This is the only place in Gainesville that I will take my car.
Don, the owner, is great! He always makes sure to tell me exactly what was wrong with my car and how I can help to prevent it from happening again. They are very good about remembering their customers. After being there only three times they knew my name and what car I drove.
I love that they know the history of my car. Being able to walk in and know that they are not going to just mess everything up is awesome. They are also not like most places where they tell you that something else that you did not come in for also needs to be fixed. They are very honest and I trust them with my car.
It may sound silly but I did not know where to go to change one of my brake lights. I drove in and told them what happened, the guy at the front desk (Doug) asked me to pop my trunk and he had in done in less than a minute. I asked him what I owed him and he told me that I didn’t owe them anything because the light bulb only cost about a dollar. Being able to have them take care of something like that at no charge is awesome. I definitely don’t know everything about cars and am learning but having them there is awesome.
I will be a loyal customer as long as I am in Gainesville.
Also, if you have not been there lately, they have done some remodeling by adding a lobby for you to wait for your car in!
