I had another excellent experience with A&D. They quickly diagnosed and corrected an issue that was caused by another shop (Pep Boys) and ultimately A&D saved me a significant amount of money. Their team was timely, professional, and transparent throughout the entire process. It’s refreshing to work with a shop that is honest and truly focused on doing the right thing for the customer and our vehicles. I can’t recommend David and Anthony enough and will absolutely only use them for future services.

As the parent of a student at the University of Tampa, who is over 1000 miles away from her kid, this place came highly recommended by other UT parents, and now I know why! My son’s car had a very unsafe tire issue late at night and when I called A & D in the early morning well before they were due to open, I was greeted by an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable guy, David. That was the beginning of excellent and honest customer service! We will definitely be returning when we need auto care! HIGHLY recommend.

Tony, Andrew, Doug, and Gary saw to my car’s issues within a couple hours of me dropping it off. The customer service was amazing and their new location was not too far from the original. A&D Automotive Center will definitely be my first choice whenever I have any other issue with my car.

I personally haven’t had car work done with them , but only because they were too far from where my non drivable car was located. I posted a FB post on a local group looking for help with an 08 Saturn XR 3.6L throwing codes for a Shift selinoid and intermittently not shifting. One of the workers there, David Cohen, reached out to me and personally walked thru the repair options for the codes and my specific vehicle. He even continued to check in with nerves tho he wasn’t going to be the one taking the job due to distance. He really truly cared and helped the best he could and provided me with knowledge I could confidentially use in seeking out the right type of repair to get the car on the road. This car is my son’s very first car, and without David’s help I wouldn’t have been able to navigate this issue with my son as confidentially as did. Thank you David and thank you A&D , if I need car work in the area or know of any one, I will remember yall! ❤️

Andrew and Gary were great! They got me in and out with a walk in oil change, they were kind and professional. They recommended my filters be changed, and got it taken care of at a great price. Highly recommend for all your car needs without hassling and suggesting unnecessary work when it’s not needed. Give them a call!

My car broke down 2 days before Christmas, and I had my car towed to A&D based off of good reviews from friends. I had low hopes of my car getting looked at until after the holiday, but they were able to squeeze my car in and get me some answers before they were closing for the holiday. They answered all of my questions with patience and understanding. I felt like they were only ever truthful with me, and it did not feel like they were just trying to have me put more unnecessary money into fixing my vehicle. I would highly recommend A&D to anyone and will personally use them in the future if needed. David, specifically, was very helpful in this process as he provided excellent customer service.

The Saga of the Rattle 8-9 months ago the rattle begin intermittently causing audible distress. 2 separation inspections at outside mechanics, a few hundred later each time replacing something under the hood but I kept saying I don’t think it’s under the hood. I ended up at A&D after the dealership wanted thousands just to inspect it. David was our Mr. Fixit, the guy who didn’t give up nor charge me thousands! His comprehensive inspection, recurring road testing, and previous experience led to a proper diagnosis of a faulty electric power steering component. The rattle did exist, was indeed inside the cab of vehicle, visibly broken and after David’s magic touch it is once again a quiet ride! I drove home in silence full of gratitude for a local business who from start to finish provided excellent service, communication and even a little moral support validating the interior cab rattle. I wouldn’t want Tony or Andrew to be sad I didn’t shout them out too but David definitely did the magic in this FL heat! Thank you for the fairly priced repair and speedy turnaround time A&D.

They got me back on the road in no time! They were very helpful with not only fixing my car but also informing me on why I was having the problems I was having and how I could prevent needing further repairs. Great customer service, you can tell they really care about their customers.

I’ve taken my car to A&D a few times now, and every experience has been excellent. They’re honest and never try to sell you things you don’t need, they genuinely care about your money. Recently, I brought my car in for an electrical issue, and when they couldn’t find anything wrong, they didn’t charge me at all. The staff is friendly, professional, and truly cares about their customers. Great people and service. They’re also fast and efficient, I’d definitely recommend them.

I’m extremely impressed with the service I received. Tony, Andrew, David and staff went above and beyond from the moment I walked in. They were transparent, professional, and took the time to explain everything in detail so I felt confident in the work being done on my car. The service was fast, the pricing was fair, and the entire experience was truly outstanding. It’s rare to find an automotive center with this level of integrity and care. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending them to everyone!

I brought my car to A&D after I saw many recommendations on the UTampa parents page. They could not be nicer and more honest - they had originally told me that she needed brake pads, rotors, and a caliper and then tried to get me a better price on the caliper. Then, after doing the brakes called me back and said the pin on the calipers is fine and there’s no need for me to have a new caliper put in and add the expense. They were so honest I was so appreciative. Highly recommend.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at this shop! The team took great care of my car from start to finish, and I could really tell they take pride in their work. Everything was handled professionally, and my car runs perfectly now. I’ll definitely be coming back here every single time I need any repairs or maintenance. Highly recommend!

For reference I am one of those people worried an auto shop will try to screw me. Long story short, I was in a situation where any other auto shop could have lied and charged me for labor and parts but in my case, the broz were like “hey, honestly my guy was in your car for less than 5 minutes, needed no parts he just plugged something in that was loose, so you’re good, no charge.” I tried to buy the counter guy Subway but he politely refused but said google reviews are ok. I’m sending all my peoples to this place, money is tight right now so much appreciated broz 🤝 faith in humanity restored

On a Sunday the cooling fan in my Trax decided it was going to no longer turn off which led to a dead battery (twice) and days of me popping the hood to unplug the fan when parked to prevent another stranded situation. I went to A & D for a second opinion after replacing the battery didn’t solve the problem and another shop quoted me a hefty price to replace the fan. In less than fifteen minutes David figured out what was wrong with my car and switched out the faulty fuse. So grateful for him. Awesome, knowledgeable staff. If your car has an issue, this is the place to go! Thanks David.

A&D Automotive Center is great. My daughter had a major issue with her car. David at A&D did a great job helping her out. His communication with me via phone ,email & texts were outstanding. They're going to follow up the work done in 30 days to make sure all went well. Can't recommend this business enough. We'll done A&D.

I have been going to A&D for a couple of months now. A few days ago, I had to get my car towed there because it would not start. From the second I called them to let them know it was being dropped off, they were friendly, compassionate, and assuring that I would be back on the road soon. The amount of communication I received from them throughout the process updating me on the test results etc, was amazing. I was informed about everything; they gained mine and my Dad’s consent before performing any work. Shout out to David for squeezing my car in and getting it done in less than 24 hours of being dropped off!!! They even came and picked me up from UT campus and brought me back to the shop so that I didn’t have to Uber. This is the place to go if you want exceptional service!!!
