I took my 2017 Honda Civic that was not blowing cold on the AC to this place and they were able to fix the problem and now my air-conditioning is blowing like brand new now and I couldn’t be happier. This place seems to be the most professional mechanic shop I’ve ever been to. They even thoroughly checked over pretty much everything on my car as a courtesy and they said my car is doing really good. They also did a courtesy check a week or so later to make sure everything was still functioning on the AC which I thought was very generous of them because they don’t charge you anything to do a courtesy check. I feel that these mechanics at the shop are very trustworthy and do honest work. They are real nice to you there and they treat you really well. I will definitely be taking my car here in the future if I ever have any more problems. I just can’t say enough good about this place. They are absolutely amazing.
They are very knowledgeable and hard workers. They are detailed and want to make sure your auto is properly running. Awesomeness
Weve had good experiences here. They drive us home and pick us up. Very reliable.
Honest and hard working they wont disappoint
Im a hotshot driver that had brakes and rotors done day before. In the middle of delivering to Redding CA and needed to get down to Barstow. I had hub oil leaking bad. These guys was super busy yet got me in and got me done. They r very nice ppl offered to allow my family and I to use company vehicle to go get lunch. If I ever brake down where I need to b towed. I will to it 100 miles to this place. They r that good. Thank you to all of you guys BIG TIME.
We run a Type 6 Wildland Fire Engine out of Montana, and we had a little trouble out in Redding this year 2021. Cody and his team did everything they could to not only get us the parts we required lickity split but also spotted a couple other serious issues we needed to get taken care of before heading back on the line. Thank goodness they were looking out for us so far from home. Best car shop you could ask for.
Friendly and knowledgeable people. I trust their work and their suggestions.
Total professionalism. Not normal for an auto shop to work so hard at customer service but they take their business seriously. Great crew I highly recommend Advanced Automotive.
Ive been having my truck & car serviced here for 3 years now. I wouldnt go anywhere else! Their prices are honest & fair, plus friendliness you just dont get anywhere else.
Did a awesome job on my truck always kept me informed very personally Done
Hands down best experience I’ve had with getting my car fixed! Any issues I had they were ready and willing to get me fixed up and pretty quick too! Jennifer had amazing customer care, anything I needed she made it happen with no hesitation and just all around amazing! Awesome place and awesome job thanks guys for helping me get my girl back up and running!! Love this place, I highly recommend coming here!!
These guys are off the hook!!!!! I was stranded pulling a 30 ft. camp trailer. They scheduled and repaired my Duramax Diesel 2500 HD in short order and got me out of a serious pinch. Thank all of you so much.
Love advanced automotive. They have taken good care of me for years across multiple vehicles. Cant recommend them enough.
We have taken both of our cars to this shop and I have to say, we were beyond impressed! Our very first visit was pleasant, informative and our issue was resolved along with education on how to avoid future visits for the same issue. The shop is immaculately clean and tidy, the staff are so helpful and friendly, and the pricing is absolutely fair.Our second visit was more of the same, I am so grateful for this business! Absolutely recommend them for any and all vehicle concerns!!
These people are very kind and helpful. The team is always honest and up front with me, if I need something explained they take the time to do so. I never feel rushed or pressured and every time I get my vehicle back it runs better than it did before. Advanced Automotive is a blessing to our Redding area. Thank you for all your help. God bless you.
My automobile had a major issue with the air conditioning that required the entire dash to be removed . Not only was Advanced Automotive the lowest bid I received to do this complicated job but they did a terrific job in a very timely fashion. They evened washed my car upon completing the job. I will not hesitate to use Them again in the future and I highly recommend them to anyone needing a good and honest repair shop
I only called this place, the lady answered the call was nice, but nit sure about the mechanic cause didnt get service done here, so 4 stars for just a phone conversation, the appointment was too far out so she referred me to check other places, the price she quoted me was fair for 4 wheels alignment at $89,
I have been a customer of Advanced for nearly 20 years. I have found them to always be honest, trustworthy, and just darn good mechanics. Cody and Tim are straight up with you and wont try to convince you to fix when there is nothing wrong. I recently had a transient noise in the front of my truck. It sounded like it was coming from the left side when it actually was coming from the from differential. It took forever to find but they kept at it. They also discovered issues with the transfer case that were not making noise. This averted a ginormous on the road if it had come apart when traveling. I recommend Advanced Auto over any other auto repair shops in Redding.
Advanced Automotive is my go to place for all car repairs. They are so knowledgeable and friendly and take the time to discuss options, pricing, long term and short term options which is extremely helpful for people like myself who arent car savvy. I wont go anywhere else! They even dropped my car off at home for me because I was at the lake! 5 stars Everytime!
I will take all of my vehicles here from now on. Jennifer, Mary, Cody, Tim, Mike, heck everyone over there know what they are doing, they are competent, knowledgeable, and efficient. They were able to correct all the problems we were having with one of our vehicles from an oil leak all the way to electrical issues. I had taken my minivan to one of the largest west coast tire franchises who did a wheel alignment 2x and still could not correct the issue, these guys were able to take care of it without a problem. Great place and great staff.
After spending time looking at reviews for various companies I decided to take my car to Advanced Automotive.Every review was excellent and five stars, so how could I go wrong. Well after my first appointment and car return, to say I was disappointed would be an understatement, what happened all these five star reviews and here am I with a car that still doesn’t work and after paying a bill.A week later I received a text message from Mary at the office asking how I felt now my car was repaired, still waiting was my response. Two days of nothing then someone must have realized what had happened, because after that the whole management and office staff literally descend onto my car, a mistake had been made a customer had slipped through the net and boy did they make it better quick. That’s why they get five star reviews.Would I use them again, would I recommend them to my friends? Yes I would with glowing praise, not only did they fix the problem but wouldn’t charge for the labor. So after a mistake made by their team they more than made up for it in my eyes.
They are always prompt and professional with attentional to every detail. It is also great that they will take you home, and pick you up again when your service is finished. They do everything they can to assure you are pleased with their service!
I got lucky,, found this amazing garage through AAA while looking for emergency service. They were able to fix my 04 Sequioa same day. I compared their prices to Toyota and found they offer AAA discounts. I Saved a few hundred dollars and they even gave me a complimentary oil change. I now have my go to guys in Redding.. Thank You...
I have been going to them since 2016 and I couldn’t be happier with my service there. They gave me very honest quotes and have even done some stuff for me as a courtesy and didn’t charge me!! Such a honest group of people who care about you and your car. I hope they are in business for a long time.
I took my truck to Advanced Automotive for wheel bearing replacements. While it was being worked on they checked the brakes and found them in need of replacement soon. I had two separate appointments and both times they printed out a complete evaluation, estimate and recommendation before I agreed to the work. The staff in the front office was efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. Cody and his mechanics did the work in a timely manner with full explanations of every detail done to my truck. I was given a ride to and from my home across town when I dropped off and picked up my vehicle. They are professional in every way and I feel fortunate to have found them. I will return for any needed repairs or service in the future. I highly recommend Advanced Automotive.
Was unhappy this place doesnt do smog anymore.
Really cared about us and did everything they could to expedite the process. Excellent communication and even follow up afterwards. I hope you never need to go to a mechanic, but if you do this is the place to take your vehicle.
Ive had my car worked on here twice and they were so kind and sweet and most importantly extremely helpful! I was having such a hard time finding a honest mechanic and Im so grateful I was recommended them. I will continue going here for my car repairs in the future.
We have been going there for years. Friendly honest people.
I started using Advanced Automotive about 2 months ago. My wife and I have 2 cars that have approximately 170,000 miles. We arent ready to purchase new cars yet but we want to feel safe driving. When we found Cody and his team to perform maintenance on our vehicles we truly felt blessed. They are very knowledgeable and have been very forthcoming with what maintenance needs we must take care of, need to take care of, and can take care of in the future. Thanks Advanced Automotive for being kind, courteous, knowledgeable, and honest.
I have always found Advanced Automotive to give prompt and great service.Always offering a ride when you have to leave your vehicle with them. Not many shops do that that I’ve experienced
Probably not the cheapest place in town but the mechanics that I have the most confidence in. You get what you pay for. I have a great SUV and needed to decide between engine replacement or scrapping the vehicle. The owners and staff tolerated A LOT of questions from me and were very patient as I waded through the pros and cons. ended up getting a new engine installed. They did a great job. Including inspecting the engine that was delivered, finding enough things wrong with it they were able to force the manufacture to take it back and send a new one with no additional freight charges. Highly recommend. Now if I could just get them to work on my boat.......
Had a less than desirable car buying experience. The staff was honest and straight forward. The mechanics are very thorough and after multiple problems advanced automotive got us back on the road. I would recommend them to anyone.
The folks at Advanced Automotive provided thorough and courteous service. When additional work was needed they communicated it well to us and provided options to us. At every step they were sensitive to the costs of the repairs, the down time of the vehicle and the affect it had on us.
The team at Advanced Automotive knocked it out of the park. I called on Tuesday and said the car has a transmission fluid leak and dropped the car off Wednesday morning. By mid-afternoon they had diagnosed the issue and were able to fix it the same day!!! :) I picked it up on Thursday morning and they had already ensured that it didnt leak overnight assuring me that the leak was repaired. This shop stands behind their work and makes it hassle free. Jennifer in the office is a customer service super star. Seriously dont look any further--take your car here. Price was outstanding.
Great people, caring always make sure your vehicle is in pristine condition. Safety for your family first! Wish I could have had them work on my car just a hard year. All prior cars they made it a special priority to be running perfect while I was always on road for employees health check-up. I would recommend them to any and all that need an honest, trustworthy mechanic! Merry Christmas to Advanced automotive!
As the founder of Advanced Automotive in July of 1993 my goal was to be the automotive repair shop that makes a difference in my chosen industry. This was to simply be the best in the way we service our customers and our community. I have long since turned over the reins to my son Cody who purchased the business in 2009 and continues to grow and expand on my original vision. Cody has taken the family business to a whole new level of expertise in the repair industry and in the field of customer service. As a Dad how could I be more proud ? As a businessman I am grateful, as member of our community, I am proud to be a part of it all.
I have been bringing my very tired service vehicle to Advanced Automotive for years. I love the fact that Cody, the owner, is on site whenever I come in. Cody grew up in the business and as a result has a much deeper understanding of automotive engineering and the trends of the industry than most people out there. That pays dividends for his customers.I know that I will get a thorough diagnosis and the unvarnished truth about what needs to be done.I know that I will be kept in the loop.I know that I will not have any surprises on my bill.I know that the repair will be done properly.I know that with Cody at the helm of his business he will be acting in my best interest.As well as his excellent staff.I know that I can depend on the integrity of Advanced Automotive.They are an asset to the community that helps me be an asset to the community!
They went above and beyond in helping us with our stranded disaster we found our selves in. Jennifer and Mary (sorry if I have that wrong) were so helpful and really cared about getting our vehicle fixed. Jennifer helped us get things situated so we could tow our vehicle back home to Ventura County, we were shocked by just how helpful everyone was. Thank you for being the best automotive shop we have ever dealt with.
We broke down just outside of Redding, and had our vehicle towed to Advanced Automotive. they drove us to a hotel since we was stranded and quickly fixed our vehicle the next day. The ladies in the office were extremely friendly and had a lot of mechanical knowledge. Thanks for taking care of us!
Always considerate and always willing to do what they can to help.
I am so pleased with the service I received from Advanced Automotive. I come from a family of mechanics and have never had to seek an outsider for repairs. I was referred to Advanced Automotive by someone I trust. I called to make an appointment and Cody asked me alot of questions. I felt instantly at ease with his knowledge and experience. It was like talking to my Dad. My truck was repaired on time there were no hidden costs. I will always bring our trucks to Advanced. I highly recommend this shop.
Great work and excellent service all around! My boyfriend and I have taken all of are cars in at one point or another for different reasons and they always exceed our expectations. They make taking a vehicle in for service a pleasant experience and will even give you a ride to your front door if you need it! 🙂.
I have been treated very fairly and well by Cody and Tim over the years. I recommend Advanced Automotive to many of my family and friends.
They got us in on a busy Monday and finished a tricky diagnosis of our non-starting van. Got us back on the road since we were stranded otherwise. Great job!
I have taken my 2016 Toyota Camry hybrid to Advanced Automotive ever since I moved to Redding a few years ago. They were referred by my mechanic in Eureka. I have been absolutely pleased with the customer service and work I have received from Advanced Automotive! They always make the appointments convenient, their work is always top notch and they answer all questions and explain everything. I completely trust them with my car.
I was traveling from Sacramento to Eureka and heading up the hill when my 2013 Ford Focus died. I had the car towed to Advance Automotive and for free they diagnosed my car. When I got the bad news I sold it diretly from his lot and Ken even boxed up my personal stuff and shipped to home to me. I really tried, bue he wouldnt take a dime for all this. I highly recommend Advanced to anyone!
Cody is our first choice automotive repair guy every time. He has great advice for proactive and preventative care for your vehicle and genuinely cares enough to make sure he and his team do a quality job. Thanks so much, Cody!
My husband brought in his car after a recommendation from a friend. We had a great experience. He had many things wrong with his car and they were reasonable and honest. They have made us feel welcome. They have kept in contact with us since he brought in his car to make sure he is happy. Top notch company!! Highly recommend them.
Advanced Automotive is great. Always very helpful & honest. They keep you informed and are very thorough.
Subaru dealership tried to charge me $1300 for a new condenser and compressor (all new AC unit) but Advanced Automotive took a look and realized there was simply a few screws that had fallen out! AC works great now. Huge thanks for taking the time to really invest in your customers unlike the big dealerships.
I was coming down I-15 on a family vacation when my Suburban lost oil pressure. I sat on the the side of an off ramp for 30 minutes calling repair shops. I got the same answer from each of them, that they were scheduled out a week.I was starting to despair a bit when Tim pulled over in front of us and a quick diagnosis and then had us follow him to Advanced Automotive. There, the receptionist arranged a hotel, bumped someone previously scheduled (I hope they were understanding. We were grateful.), and personally drove us to the hotel. The vehicle was ready by lunchtime the next day.If I had to spend a day sitting at a hotel with unexpected car trouble, Advanced Automotive made it as pleasant and fast as possible.During my wait, I had opportunity to chat with Tim and other employees. Every mechanic has all possible certifications. They are as honest as can possibly be, relentlessly friendly and cheerful. I cant say enough good things about them.
The best service and the best mechanics. My truck is like new. Thank you Advanced Automotive. Susan Rice
My first experience with this repair shop..A+ 5 star Customer care and quick, inexpensive, competent auto repair...They gave me a ride home and picked me up..They washed the poor old 98 Subaru and even set the clock in it...$250.00 bucks..Now It shifts better than it did when I bought it in 2002..Still in a state of shock..I was expecting to have to replace the transmission or take it to pick and pull..
Nice people and good service on my air conditioning.
I would just like to say how professional and Knowledgeable the staff are, especially Jen in the front office. I will definitely take my vehicle back for any future repairs.
All around professional service. Very happy I was recommended to them.
We are very happy with Cody and Advanced Automotive. We have an older ford truck and depend on Advanced Automotive to keep it on the road. After many attempts to find a good Mechanic shop, we finally found one at Advanced Automotive. Jim and Jess, Weaverville Ca
They we absolutely amazing I went in thinking I had a hugh issue and they started from scratch and it turned out is was just an oil change they saved me thousands...I have been to so many places and no one could fix my car and theyd guys did Im so grateful
Very nice very thorough people would respond prices.
When was the last time a shop called you to check and find out hows your car running? Well, the day after my trip, Tim called me to make sure the car was running OK, this is the kind of customer service we all expect but is so lacking this days from other shops.I know where I am taking my car next time I need some work done!!
Great work
Its hard to find an auto shop that is honest. I always come here for a second opinion on a quote I receive.The staff is friendly and go above and beyond.
Really appreciate how thoughtful these guys were in the repair of our Suburban. I had come to these guys before for minor repairs/maintenance but never needed any major work done. We were very impressed with the expertise in the diagnosis and repair as well as the considerate customer care that they showed. Despite getting asked all the time who my mechanic is, I havent had one in years. Glad to have someone that I can trust for the future and who I can refer others to.
This is by far the best Auto repair shop I have ever been to. They treat every car like its their own and the work is supreme! I feel safe and secure in my car because of Cody and his team. Thank you for your dedication and expertise!
Not only are the technicians and owners knowledgeable but theyre honest. Ive taken my Dodge Cummins there several times and have always been extremely pleased with the work that was done and the service I received. In a town with a lot of competition in the automotive industry Advanced Automotive is top-of-the-line. I highly recomend them. Thanks for doing a great job and getting me back on the road in a timely manner.
Great customer service. And products i needed
The work this shop does is exceptional. Quality work for a reasonable price! Owner follows up and makes sure everything was done to my satisfaction. Then, I even received a coupon for money off my next visit! 😀👍🏻Advanced Automotive should be the only place you take your vehicle for repairs in the Redding area! Tell them Doug sent you.
Excellent service
I took my truck to Advanced Automotive because they were close to the house and it was overheating. Ill continue to make Advanced Automotive my preferred car repair service in the Redding area. They were honest, fair, and reasonably priced. The owner went out of his way to make a timely diagnosis and repair of my vehicle. I cant say enough about the integrity and quality of work demonstrated by Advanced Automotive.
I feel very confident recommending Cody, Tim, and their entire staff. They give outstanding service and a fair deal. When my last work was completed the price was less than their estimate. I have never had that experience at other shops.
Being able to trust your auto mechanic is very important to me. I trust Cody and the team at advance automotive. I really appreciate their work and take my car to them when I have a need.
Best automotive shop around! Fair prices and they go above and beyond when it comes to customer care. Very personable and friendly. Would not take my truck anywhere else!!
Every time I go to them they give me options and sometimes even recommend less expensive options. They have proven time and time again they have my best interest in mind and while they are a business they care about people too! Its hard to find trustworthy mechanics so Id HIGHLY recommend anyone to go here.
We broke down here about 3500 miles into pur 4000 mile trip. The truck went into limp mode while we were stocking up at Walmart. This place had great reviews and was AAA approved, so we had the truck towed there. Turns out an exhaust leak melted a bundle of wires in the wiring harness and they shorted out. Truck started smoking when they pulled it in. The people here were very accommodating, explained it all to us, and worked hard to do things right. They coordinated with the muffler shop to fix the exhaust problem. We feel good about getting back on the road with our 30ft travel trailer to finish our trip.
We couldnt be more happy with the service we received from Tim and Cody at Advanced Automotive. We felt like they treated us fairly in price, were honest with us and did excellent work on both our Buick and Chevy 15 passenger van. We highly recommend them.
Advanced Automotive came to me about 7 years ago on a tip from a friend. Ever since I have entrusted all of my Automotive needs to Advanced Automotive. Integrity, honesty, premium replacement parts, and a welcoming atmosphere from the front office to the garage.
Cody and his team are hands down the most skilled and efficient auto repair team in town. They will always go above and beyond to ensure the customer is satisfied and I’ve never been more impressed with not only the work done on my vehicles but the communication and service provided by the entire team.
They always get me in right away and give me the best price possible! And I know the service is thorough. Love these guys!
I had a warped Rotor took it in and they had me out the same day. I have had work done there before and am always happy with the service and price.
I had a great experience with Advanced Automotive. Called to make an appointment, got me in the same day and my car was done the next day when they said it would be. Very reliable and affordable!
I can count on Advanced Automotive!9+ years of excellent service!9+ years of trusted advice!9+ years of excellent staff!I discovered Advanced Automotive more than 9 years ago when I took a 2-year job in Redding.I moved away 7 years ago but I continue driving back, even from Sacramento.Cody and staff always deliver!I will mourn the day when I have to leave Northern California…..and so will my car.GREAT JOB EVERYONE!Thanks for all you do!S
This was my first time using Advanced Automotive. I recently moved to the area and my truck had difficulty starting. The techs troubleshot and diagnosed the issue, keeping me in the loop the whole time. Good customer service and fair pricing.
Excellent service. I have been a customer of Advanced Automotive for several years. They always address any vehicle problems efficiently. They fully stand behind any work preformed.
Awesome customer service and very knowledgeable about automotive repairs
Prompt, professional, and customer oriented. They make spending $$$ on necessary job feel rewarding
Ive only been going to these guys for less than a year now since I moved here but I wont go to anyone else thats for sure. These guys treat my car right! I highly recommend them.
Took my 03 Honda Accord in for 200,000 mile service to Advance Automotive. Received prompt, professional and courteous service. Besides being a great group of talent I was very happy about the great job they did on my vehicle at an outstanding price!
Best shop in town. Extraordinary service and honest people. Definitely take the time to get it done right and stand behind their work.
As always, the service was impeccable and everyone was wonderful. Still the best experience Ive ever had with an auto repair shop. We take all 3 of our vehicles to Advanced Automotive whenever they need attention. Wouldnt trust anyone else.
Great shop. Up to date technology and experience. They will go the extra mile to find your problem. Feel very comfortable with the methodology they use to trouble shoot and estimate their repairs.
Ive been going to Advanced Automotive for over 20 years for my vehicle repairs and maintenance. They have always done a great job and continue to honest and excellent mechanics. My truck was experiencing a very difficult electrical problem. Advanced Automotive stuck with it and figured it out. They did an outstanding job. I dont know what I would have done without them.
Undoubtedly the best place to have your car worked on in Redding. Family owned and run, they are honest to a fault. If you need your car fixed right, go here.
Very knowledgeable staff, very helpful. This seems like an odd thing to comment on but I am really impressed with their work order/receipt; the amount of detail about what was worked on, what the electrical readings were and the compression readings on the engine cylinders were - Ive never gotten that kind of detail from an auto mechanic before.
I’ve been taking my Tahoe to them for a couple of years now and I wouldn’t take it anywhere else. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable and offering discounts at every service. I know my vehicles are in great hands here.
Cody and the entire AA team are top notch. Always excellent service and quality of workmanship is second to none. We highly recommend them.
We send all are vehicles to Tim and Cody best fix at a reasonable rate
As always, Cody and Tim are the best. They take really good care of their customers. I have referred many to them and will continue to do so.
Cody and his team have been working on my cars for years. Ive come to trust them and depend on their expertise. I cant recommend Advanced Automotive highly enough.
Great service and friendly, efficient staff. Ive never had a problem with Advanced Automotive and they take excellent care of my vehicle.
