I rarely write reviews, but had such a great experience at Schneider’s that I need to shout them out! I drove up from LA to check out a used hybrid from a nearby dealership, and chose to get a pre-purchase inspection from the team after researching local mechanics and reading all the other great reviews. When I called, they were super helpful and able to fit me in the next morning (right before the weekend, no less). When I arrived, Joe, the Service Manager, took great care of me. He was friendly, told me what to expect, was able to get the car checked out quickly, sent me a handy digital copy of the PPI, and gave me great peace of mind in my soon-to-be purchase—plus a few helpful mindset tips on negotiating at the dealership. (Which I used successfully!) I really trust their expertise, and the price was very reasonable too. If I lived in town, I would definitely make them my mechanic!

I had a really great experience recently at Schneider’s. I was referred to them by America’s Tires to repair a broken stud. I did have a few things that I needed to get taken care of and I was offered a free inspection and provided with a detailed list of everything that was in good condition as well as recommended repairs. And then I was given a written quote for everything I inquired about. The quote was detailed with parts, labor and fees included. The whole process was low pressure, no hard salesmanship. I spoke with four different people, and all were professional and courteous. My car was returned washed and running in great condition. The repairs were done faster than expected. I held off on the most expensive repair and I plan to get a second opinion. I doubt that Schneider’s is the cheapest auto place in town. But I would trust Schneider’s to do a good job and charge a fair amount, so I would likely go back regardless of the competing quote. I’ve only had one experience with Schneider’s, but it was a very good one, and I feel comfortable recommending them highly. I’m actually really glad to have found them. I would prefer to support a local business versus the dealer where I’ve been taking my car up till now.

Joe was very professional and easy to talk to when my Duramax was in the shop for repair. The staff worked hard and took care of my pickup. I definitely recommend them for service work on all vehicles. I had 5 codes on my Duramax, and they repaired all of them in only a few days time. Thank you.

We recently had need of their services for our 2005 Dodge Magnum. As always we were provided professional and personable services by their staff. Joe answered all my questions and was able to get the necessary parts for our 20 year old car. Our Magnum was repaired and we are extremely satisfied with the quality of the work and the care provided by Schneider's.

First time customer... Easy to make the appointment for my 2014 Ford Expedition. Drop-off was effortless. Good communication with what was needed, and the prices were fair. Pick-up was easy, and I was on my way. I will be bringing my vehicle back again for ongoing service. I will also be bringing in my 2003 Ford Expedition for its first service at this shop. Yes, I have old school vehicles (10-plus years old and no car payments) and this shop seems well equipped to handle my needs. At the end of the day, I had a good experience, I trust them, and I am coming back.

I have been here since a friend of mine had recommended them for a service Schneider's did for his car. I have been here for so many things ever since - and I have NEVER once run into a problem! To say, I've been here for brake service, oil change, when my radiator took a dump, spark plugs, and many other things since my 50K miles. Every time I go, I get an estimate beforehand and then the total once they have the work done. Joe & the staff have a great customer service base & know how and when to communicate to customers. Schneider's is willing to bend backwards to get the job fixed and the parts that need to be received. Yeah, I know most of you are going to say "blah blah, prices are high!" - but at least they don't rip you off or give you unreasonable quotes. Car repairs are already costly - and as adults with cars we should already expect that. What I also like about Schneider's is they give you options when it comes to something to get fixed and they CALL you about it - they don't just fix it under your assumptions or add things on without telling you (that's what happened at another place with me last time, causing me to come here). I like to be told what's going on with my car and what needs getting done. It's rude when no one tells you anything and then tacks on the bill for their sake of profit. Overall, they are a great little shop and are willing to help you when you're in a bind. They are resourceful and the staff is very courteous and knowledgeable. I just hope they keep this aura and don't go out of business or sell out to some other company.

Schneider’s Automotive is an honest and professional shop. My car was burning oil at an alarming and destructive rate. Schneider’s not only diagnosed the issue free of charge but advocated for me when I returned to the dealer where I purchased the vehicle. Top notch service and I will be recommending this place to all my friends and family.

BEST customer service! We took our 2008 Toyota Prius in for an estimate on suspension work. The team gave us an honest work-up and left the decision up to us. In the end we realized it was time to say goodbye to our little car. Our experience was so positive that we will absolutely bring our cars to Schneider's for future repairs.

Joe, the Service Manager, was professional and friendly and he provided excellent customer service. I received a very detailed inspection report from the service technicians with recommendations, and pictures that were very helpful. The repairs on my 2012 Challenger were done ahead of schedule, and I will return to have my Truck service soon. I was even given a small token of appreciation for allowing Schneider's to service my vehicle...It's hard to find good mechanics with excellent customer service, to boot, these days and I think I just found these qualities at Schneider's Automotive!

Joe and team at Schneiders were top notch. I appreciate how honest and fair the pricing was to perform the work on my truck. I knew going into the shop that my truck was needing attention, I was happy to have worked with Joe to talk through the needs for my truck and how best to maintain it for longevity of the truck.

Was looking for a good auto mechanic to take my Honda Odyssey for repair and saw their review on line. Used to go to Honda dealer and for a change I tried Schneider. To my satisfaction they did a good job especially Joe ( service manager) is very accommodating and professional. Now I found an auto shop to go to for my car.

Prompt and timely service, a shop with mechanics that actually know cars. Very clean operation. Joe and Ken both pay attention to what needs to be service and take their work seriously. Their pricing is fair and competitive with outstanding customer service. This was our first time and won't be our last, it is worth the drive to find a good mechanic who is trustworthy. I will take all my cars here for needs that I can't do myself.

A very professional and very importantly friendly and open people. I brought in my 1984 Mercedes s class diesel ( the art of knowing how to work on these vehicles is slowly dying off) for 2 seemingly major faults but Danny tracked 1 of them down Within an hour. He knows what to do and didn’t try upselling me he just told me what he has experience replacing how things wear and what to expect. I’m glad to have him work and also advise me with my car. He’s mechanic not just a parts changer that’s extremely important.

Oh my gosh! I couldn't find shops willing to work on my '77 VW Bus, but Schneider's did. They were communicative and kept me informed every step of the way with getting my baby running again. It took a while, but it has been sitting for years and now my bus is back on the road running better than ever. Thanks to Joe and Danny, we have switched to Schneider's for all of our automotive needs!

I was looking for a new mechanic and decided to try Schneider’s Auto Repair today, and I’m really glad I did. I had a metal scraping sound coming from the right side of my car and didn’t think it was the brakes. They took the time to perform a full inspection and found a bent metal part that was causing the noise. They bent it back into place and completely fixed the issue. Best part? They didn’t charge me anything for the inspection or the fix. I thanked them and told them I’d be leaving a review. Needless to say, they’ve won a customer, hopefully for many years to come. What an honest shop. Thank you, Schneider’s Auto Repair!

I am happy with all of the work that was done on my Infiniti G35 coupe. You guys did everything you could on the window motor replacement. I am happy and tell all my friends about you and your honesty. I feel like we are friends plus my trusted auto mechanics. Have a happy new year in 2026.

My Sequoia was turning 100K and I brought it in for inspection and to create a workflow for addressing all of the required maintenance. Schneiders very clearly outlined what I should take care of today (very minimal) and what I could schedule over time based on Toyota's recommendations. Walked out with just an oil change (less expensive than my usual oil changer) and a new battery (which I knew was on it's last legs). I have had three cars serviced at Schneiders over the years and I have always been very happy with the service and the advice on what to address and what to leave for another day. My previous vehicle (Honda Odyssey) which they serviced went to 330K plus without any major issues and is still the new owners daily drive.
