A small shop I can trust

Best mechanic in town! Mickey is trust worthy and the only person I use the past 15 years! Very well priced and never up charges and tells me exactly what is wrong and why!

On 2/28/2025 John Davis had this to say:
Bob's automotive is a unicorn in Franklin Tennessee. And honest auto mechanic shop. My suburban was running extremely rough, and I would have accepted any explanation including needing a new engine, if it came to that. 15 minutes after I showed up Mickey diagnosed that my vacuum hose had just come loose under the hood where it was not obvious for me to see it. $45 later my car was running like a champ and I was out of there.

FAQ

What kinds of auto repair services do you offer?

At Bob’s Auto Repair, we offer a full range of automotive services including routine maintenance (oil changes, brakes, belts), engine diagnostics, air conditioning repair, emissions testing, cooling system repair, tune-ups, timing belt replacement, and more.

Do you provide written estimates before doing any work?

Yes. We understand how important clarity is, so we provide written, itemized estimates for parts and labor before any repair work begins. This helps avoid surprises and keeps everything transparent. This is also one of the key practices recommended by the Car Care Council.

How long will my repair take?

Repair time depends on the type of service and parts required. After we diagnose the issue, we’ll give you an estimated timeframe. For complex jobs—especially those needing specific parts—repairs may take longer.

Are your technicians certified?

Yes, our technicians are trained professionals. We strive to maintain a high level of expertise and integrity, in line with industry best practices. Customers should feel free to ask about our certifications. Certification and experience are important factors in choosing a repair shop.

Do you offer a warranty on parts and labor?

Yes, we offer a warranty on many of our repair services. The exact terms can vary depending on the job, but we stand behind the quality of our work. Having a written warranty is a sign of a reputable repair shop.
