Solid staff with all the tools you need. Spent Saturday morning helping another friend replace gear shift. Manager said its a great place to rotate tires, change oil and brakes with plenty of lifts.
I was camped in the FamCamp and needed to do some emergency repairs and was glad there was an auto shop. I was able to do my repairs and finished up by closing. The shop was clean, friendly staff, and so glad it is open for military retirees and veterans. The next morning I received a call from Daniel Pepe that I had left my registration and insurance cards. I immediately returned to the shop and Daniel brought them to me. Daniel Pepe has a great positive attitude, honest, and he goes above and beyond. His performance is a credit to the auto shop, the community and MacDill AFB.
This shop needs a bit of a budget for refurbishing and upgrades. My tool box was missing at least 30% of the tools that were supposed to be in there. When at other bases, the tool box was super labeled and checked prior to check-out.
All the equipment seems mechanically sound and in good working order.
Overall a good place to service your vehicle at an inexpensive rate.
A great place to come and work on your ????, truck or bike. The service is very friendly, but the stalls are on a first come first serve basis and some of the bays are used for storage. Half of the lifts work and the other half are questionable. They have a couple of tire changing machines, but no one qualified to operate them. This place has so much more potential if they would just clean it up a little and put some $$ and TLC into it. Still better than working in my driveway!!
This place has saved me so much money, if you love wrenching on your own card this place has everything from friendly staff, great prices, 2 types of car lifts and anything a mechanic shop should have. I hope they get their tire machine and alignment machine fixed soon, but besides that I’ve saved thousands already. I’ve been brining all my friends to it for their repairs as well and they love it and are amazed that such a shop exists. Happy wrenching!
Jeff (shop lead) is a true asset to the shop. His expertise, friendly can-do attitude provides a very unique atmosphere where the user feels safe, enabled and above all comfortable knowing that help is always there when needed. The shop is clean, well-organized and very reasonably priced for young troops and the casual retiree. Strongly recommended.
I have specifically used this shop on many occasions, teaching my son about changing oil on his vehicles, changing out brakes and rotors.. I live in Wesley Chapel and could literally go anywhere but the shop has allowed and afforded me the opportunity to help teach my son how to understand the basics so he can always maintain his vehicles himself. I had another project that I had shelved once I found out the shop was closed until further notice… I man glad to see it’s back open now.. time to start working on car again!
Cheap, convenient, and easy. This place has saved me tons of money on things from oil changes to basic mechanical fixes. It is great for those seeking to learn about cars and also for those who are on a budget.
