Been using Brian's shop for 10 years or so. My wife and I always get great results here. I should have left a dozen glowing reviews by now, but I've been negligent. I just had a bunch of stuff done to my 2007 GX470 (Tune up, Trans Fluid Flush, Rear Brake Pads, Replaced Rear Suspension Air Bags). My SUV drives like new now. I've personally referred dozens of our clients to Brian and his crew at The Car Shop without hesitation, and they always deliver for our clients. If you're vehicle needs work, regardless of make or model, The Car Shop will do a great job and stand behind their work. You can't go wrong, give them a call!

I took my 2018 Kia Soul here and Brian was extremely easy to work with. He diagnosed the issue and had me back on the road for just a couple hundred bucks. When my AC stopped working a couple days later, I took it back and it turned out to just be the cold snap messing with how cold the car was getting inside. The second visit cost me nothing. Knowledgable, affordable and overall outstanding experience. I will be bringing all 3 of my family's vehicles here instead of the dealership.

I've been to The Car Shop on a few different occasions with different vehicles. Estimates are well communicated, prices are always reasonable, and Brian and the rest of the staff are always welcoming, friendly, and honest. It's hard to find honest and reliable mechanics, but The Car Shop is everything! I have been and will continue to go here for my vehicles and recommend this place to anyone and everyone! ♡

I took my son’s car in for overheating and paid $1,800 to have it fixed. As soon as I drove it off the lot, it started overheating again. Brian, the shop owner, said the car (a 2001 Jaguar S-Type) is hard to work on and that he normally wouldn’t take the job, but did because he had worked on my other car through a warranty before. I brought it back less than a week later and was told they couldn’t find the problem and that I should stay close to home when driving it. The car overheated again as soon as I left. I later had someone else look at it and was told the issue was a blown head gasket. If I had known that, I would not have paid $1,800 for repairs that didn’t fix the real problem. The car is still not drivable and this caused me to miss work

Reliable and trustworthy. It’s difficult to find that in this industry. He has fair pricing and I really appreciate the time he takes to diagnose my H2 even when he has a busy schedule. Thanks Brian for always fitting me into your schedule. One of the few places I don’t feel like I am being taken advantage of which is common being a female looking for a reliable mechanic.

Brian and his team at The Car Shop gave me exceptional service on my S550 Mercedes. I brought it in for a complete brake job.. replaced the rotors and pads. Had it back the same day. Drives like new again. Highly recommend The Car Shop if you are in need of quality service on your vehicle.

I only choose Car Shop because it was on my car warranty list. I took it there because the a/c wasn't cooling. I even emailed the mechanic the warranty. He stated that nothing was wrong with the a/c just low on freon I asked him if the warranty would cover the brake foot pedal because it was sticking. He didn't even call my warranty company at all and wouldn't call, he stated he was going to charge me to call my warranty company if he was on the phone long with them. I called the warranty company and they stated that he never put a claim in. I only took my truck there so it would be covered by the warranty. He also quoted me several different prices for the a/c diagnostics and brake repair 450 for everything when my warranty stated that the sticking brake pedal was covered. So I just told him not to fix the brake pedal so he stated the repair will be 223.00 for the a/c diagnostic and got frustrated with me because I thought that was too much. He stated 200.00 even. I will never take my vehicle there again and make sure my friends and family don't either. I feel mechanics over charge women and that's sad.

It's too bad I'm about to move out of state. I just found this trustworthy carshop and wish I could use them as my go-to mechanics. If you need to get anything done on your car in tampa give these guys a call first, they are awesome.

After having to go to three shops (one was the dealership) Brian finally diagnosed the issue and helped my husband with his car! Trustworthy and reasonable. Highly recommend. 11/26/25 got a pretty serious issue fit very quickly with my car and back on the road again for Thanksgiving! Thanks, Brian!

Brian and the staff at The Car Shop were so kind and helpful to me when I didn't know what to do with my vehicles. They got both of my vehicles in promptly and fixed the problem with very reasonable pricing. They even fixed something at no cost. As someone who had to find a new mechanic and felt very apprehensive, I am so glad I found the Car Shop.
