My truck was making a loud motorcycle-like noise from the engine, and I was pretty worried. I called and Trey was able to get me in right away. He was upfront and transparent, letting me know they might not be able to diagnose it immediately — but to my surprise, I got a call shortly after dropping the truck off. They quickly found the issue and told me they could have it fixed the same day or by the next day at the latest. I ended up getting a call back that same day saying my truck was already fixed. The price was very fair, communication was excellent, and the whole experience was stress-free. Highly recommend Trey and his team, honest, efficient, and great to work with

This auto mechanic was recommended by budget Brakes, due to what I thought was a brake issue. Bowen automotive was able to schedule a drop off date, Friday, with no promise of getting to look at vehicle til next week. To my surprise I got a call that the issue with vehicle has been diagnosis and work can be completed if I give them the ok. I agreed, the work was completed same day. I received call that car is ready. I went to pickup car, and was told they had a problem with drive shift and car wouldn’t be ready til next week. No one called to follow up with me about the other mechanical problem or that car will not be ready till next week. The issue of no call to communicate problem resulted in: 1. Rearranging a ride to auto shop next week. 2. No call about discovery of second issue. I question how was this issue discovered since I has a call that car is ready after it was road tested. (I’m still not sure how this happened nor the actual mechanical problem). Granted that the issue was corrected with no additional charge. I just feel the communication should have been better. The quality of work on both issues, I can’t say, only time will tell.

Bowen Automotive is very well-experienced in repairs to many vehicles. In addition, the owner, Trey, is very pleasant to deal with. I also like the shop's reasonable prices and the fact that they offer a warranty on work that they do.

Had a issue with my lifters, in a 2020 chevrolet silverado, trail boss, with only 40,000 miles. It's a faulty part that GM knows about but won't fix. The warranty had just ran out. Took my truck to Bowen Auto and spoke to the owner, Trey. He reassured me that everything was going to be and by the next morning he had checked everything out and confirmed my worst fears. He had the truck for three days and was fixed. Just an amazing turnaround time. For the engine work that he had to do, he DID NOT gouge me on price and it was extremely reasonable. Trey is a excellent mechanic, family man and all around just a great person. I and my family will be taking ALL of our vehicles there from now on. Thanks Trey.

My daughter was home from college for the holidays when her CV axle boot ripped and damaged her flex brake line causing it to leak brake fluid. It was completely unsafe to drive. On the day after Christmas I noticed the puddle of brake fluid and I needed her car to be repaired ASAP to get her back to school. I previously noted the positive comments about Bowen Automotive on the r/Huntsville subreddit and google reviews. Trey got my daughter's car fixed within 24 hours of having it towed to the shop. The repairs were excellent and reasonably priced, but most importantly we got my daughter on the road safely.

Trey was so helpful!! I ran into an issue with the dealer and pulled my car from them and he was able to get it in the same day and fix my issue. His pricing is very reasonable and he is very honest with the work that he does. I will be going back to Trey for all future mechanical issues!! Thanks so much for everything!!

Thankful to have found a trustworthy automotive shop here in South Huntsville. Trey was quick to return my phone call and answer all of my questions with transparency. He was able to quickly diagnose and resolve the issue with my 2015 Suburban. He had my car ready within a few hours and charged a very reasonable rate for the service performed.

You can't go wrong having Trey and his team work on your automobile. They are kind thorough and my car is running like new. It's a relief to find an actual mechanic in this day and age, like my father was.

I called Bowen to get an estimate on the repairs the dealership had found on several components leaking. Trey wanted me to bring it in for inspection, and I did, but I didn’t expect to pay a diagnostic fee since I explained what the dealership had found but Trey actually saved me a lot of money by eliminating a lot of issues the dealership told me was wrong. I would’ve been out a lot more $$$ if he hadn’t have looked at it. He found that the valve cover was the only component leaking along with a loose bolt. I had the valve cover gasket replaced a year prior from another auto repair shop in which I will take it back to them since it’s still under warranty. Overall, It was worth the money for Trey to take his time, go in depth, and figure out what was going on. Bowen Automotive will definitely be my #1 place for now on. Thanks, Trey

These guys are very nice and knowledgeable. Went to get my AC/heat fixed and they fixed it with no hassle. They sent me an invoice about the bill to show what I’m paying for. In and out in no time. Would recommend

If I become rich this guy will be my personal mechanic, a review is overdue, I’ve been going to Bowen Automotive for 7 years, from my 1st car, to my 15th car, “TREY DOESNT MISS” from molding wrecked cars back together, to timing chains, to fuel pumps to water pumps, trans engine swaps, to broken lug nuts tire shops can’t even fix! YOU NAME IT, everytime I have been left more than satisfied EVERYTIME and his prices are VERY VERY GOOD WITH WARRANTIES, BEST MECHANIC AROUND!!!!!!! #BowenCanFixIt

Did a good job diagnosing my truck. Unfortunately the repair cost was more than my truck is worth so it had become a home project. Great place to go though.

I highly recommend Bowen Automotive. My car recently broke down so I had it towed to the Acura dealership, and they told me I needed a new alternator and battery at the price of $1,400.00 out the door, which I knew was too high. I kept my car there overnight, did some research and found Bowen Automotive. They had very high reviews so I contacted them and their estimate was over $500 less. Trey, the owner, also told me I did not need a new battery, so the price went down even more. Trey was a very good communicator during this entire process, which I appreciate. My car is running great and I am so pleased. I found a new mechanic ... thank you Bowen Automotive!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Bowen Auto. As a woman, more specifically a single mom, I love knowing I can bring my vehicle here and not be taken advantage of. Trey is honest, trustworthy, kind, and professional. And I love knowing I'm supporting a good, local family, NOT a corporation.

I own a repair shop myself in a different field & never pays well to work on your own stuff nor do I have time. Well.. as we all know we are in North Alabama where common since is hard to come by, so why trust anyone to work on stuff yourself… Well I got referred to Mr. Bowen by a parts house hunting for a shift selonoid on my truck. Took it to Bowen, he got it right. Next 6-8 months later my wife’s Cars AT Trans light came on, brought it to Bowen, guy fix it same day, was loading it on a tow truck at 10:15 that day, an had it ready by 3 in the after noon. Long story short all my issues are internal Transmisson issues other shops would tell you, you need a Transmisson rather Mr Bowen breaks into what you have an fixes the electrical failure within the Transmisson such as (valve body’s, shift selonoids) in my case Toyota & Subura. Thanks again Bowen.

Went to Bowen Automotive for AC repair. Dropped the truck off around 9:00am. By lunch time, I had a detailed estimate and picked the vehicle up a couple of hours later. Great service, stellar communication, and an accurate estimate from the start with no run-around for unnecessary extras. Doesn't get much better than that in my opinion. They definitely earned themselves a new devoted customer!
