I have trusted Countryside Automotive for over two decades to maintain and fix my cars. Chris and Jay are honest and great mechanics. I have referred friends to Chris and they have become loyal customers of his. The most important thing is, no matter if you are a guy that knows cars or someone that just knows how to put in gas, you can trust that he will only do what work is needed and do it a great price.

I can’t say enough about Chris at Countryside Automotive! He recently replaced the wheel bearings on my 2010 Toyota Highlander and I am completely satisfied with the work. Chris diagnosed the problem, estimated repair costs, gave me an excellent deal on superior parts, completed the work on time, and my vehicle has never run better! Chris is honest, reliable, skilled, friendly and professional. Five stars and a 100% recommendation!

I found out about Chris shop from his son at work. I was being screwed over with a broken truck at multiple mechanic shops paying to get nothing fixed! Chris was honest and kind off the bat! He took the time to trace down the wiring problem saved me from getting a new transmission!!! Couldn’t recommend him enough. If you want an honest mechanic who will fix your vehicle with fair prices look no further!

Chris at Countryside Automotive came in clutch for me and I thought everyone should know that he is a mechanic you can trust! I found him on a google map search, didn't know anything about him or his shop except that he was close, and I wouldn't have to be towed very far, and I am so glad I found him! He was courteous, knowledgeable, and quick with the diagnosis and repair! He made sure to get my daughter back into her car ASAP and I'm so thankful to him for the great service he provided! I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a repair!

For nearly two decades, our entire family has relied on Chris as our trusted "family doctor" for our vehicles. Whether the problem is minor or major, we place our complete trust in Chris to handle it with precision and care. He consistently exceeds our expectations, delivering prompt and thorough repairs, ensuring our vehicles are back on the road in no time. He is also such a pleasant and friendly person to deal with.

Chris is amazing! He did a great job fixing my Ford's shifter and I enjoyed my experience working with him throughout the entire process. It's no fun having to get your car towed. I'm just glad it landed is such great hands! You couldn't ask for a more friendly and knowledgeable mechanic. I cannot express how happy I am with my experience with Chris!

Chris and his crew are great. He was honest about what I needed, gave me a fair price, and the service did not take an absurdly long time. Just for reference, he had to replace the engine in my daughter's car, and it is now running like new. A friend referred me to him, and Chris is now going to be my regular mechanic.

Chris did a great job on my truck. He is very polite, professional and timely. Even saved me some $ on repairs I thought I needed. I will be taking my vehicles to him from now on. Thank you Chris and Countryside Automotive!

I have been going to see Chris to take care of my vehicles for two decades. He's a good, honest guy who does great work at a great price. Don't take your vehicle to a dealer for repair work. Go see Chris first. He won't "steer" you wrong (see what I did there)! Thank you Chris and Countryside Automotive!!

After one of our female employees took her car to Chris, it was very apparent Chris was honest about the repairs and very reasonably priced. I started taking my truck to Chris for various service, but the last time was my biggest repair to date. 3 of the 4 lines for my turbo charger were leaking, my water pump was broken, basically my truck was on its death bed. Thankfully, Chris was able to resurrect my dying truck. He not only replaced the many worn out parts but cleaned the engine and it looked almost brand new when I got back. Chris is very trust worthy and a good man. In my experience, that is very hard to find in auto mechanic. When you take your vehicle to Chris, you won't be disappointed. UPDATE: Chris has taken my truck in several times on very short notice and kept me running. I plan on keeping my truck for a long time and Chris is the only mechanic I will trust with my truck. From a simple oil change to my 4 x 4 conversion, Chris is my guy.

Was introduced to Chris by a Friend of my Boss that has been receiving stellar Service at Countryside Automotive for years. Having just purchased a Used Dodge Grand Caravan, I asked Chris to "give it a one over Review" and let me know what needs to be serviced, plus an Oil Change. He was so kind and transported me to and from my Home as he kept my Vehicle overnight and would be working on it the next morning. I appreciated his advice and suggestions, and his rates were very reasonable. I gladly would recommend anyone in need of Automotive Repair and Service to visit Countryside Automotive. Ask for Chris. You'll be treated well. ☺️

I came to Countryside Automotive because I had a problem with my engine light. My engine light came on after another repair shop mess up my O2 sensor in my car. Mr Chris found out that one of the mechanics broke some wires in my valve cover gasket. He ordered the part and realized that I didn't need it after all. Mr Chris is an amazing and honest man. My repair work was supposed to be $400+ dollars and it was half of that. Please get your car repairs done from honest and professional people like Countryside Automotive in Clearwater FL.

Chris Skopis is a fabulous person! Not only is he very knowledgeable and skilled, he did his best to give me my car back in a very short time and gave me a courtesy lift as well! His manners are charming and respectful and exceedingly helpful and considerate. The bill was reasonable, and even less than the estimate, partially due to his efforts to find the very best solution for a complicated problem. I recommend him heartily.

Didn't take me long to figure out that Chris was a great mechanic and a kind person. I read the reviews and decided to give him a shot. Chris was very kind and got me my truck back sooner than he estimated, and at a fraction of the cost of other shops in the area. He was very knowledgeable, not pushy, and suggested some things that were exactly what I was expecting, and nothing more. I highly recommend him! He does great work.

Chris Skopis is a great mechanic and maybe even a better man! I have a 2008 Jeep Patriot w/155k miles on it & he diagnosed my car's problem(s) quickly and got my car back to me extremely FAST and at a VERY fair price. He even gave me a courtesy ride to my condo! He was knowledgeable, courteous and very pleasant to deal with. I will be using Chris from now on and HIGHLY recommend him!
