No Light Chasing.
Just the Truth.

After 3 years of driving with a check engine light and visiting multiple mechanics, one of our customers said: "South Broad finally figured it out and fixed it. My 25-year-old truck drives like a new car."

What We Do

Full Mechanical Work,
Foreign & Domestic

One shop, every repair. Brakes to engines, oil changes to A/C, done by people who stand behind their work.

Brakes & Shocks

Pads, rotors, calipers, shocks and struts — stopping power and a smooth ride you can trust.

Suspension Work

Alignment, control arms, bushings and steering — fix the pull, the bounce and uneven tire wear.

Engine & Transmission

Diagnosis, repair and used-engine swaps at a fair price. We find the real problem — not a guess.

Oil Change & Tune-Up

Fast synthetic oil changes, plugs, filters and fluids. In and out — no hassle, no upsell.

A/C & Heating

¿Calor? Recharge, leak repair and full A/C service. Keep cool all summer — or warm all winter.

Check Engine Diagnostics

Check engine, ABS, battery, oil light — we read the codes and tell you exactly what's wrong.

Also: tires, exhaust, alternators & batteries, used-engine swaps and full mechanical service on all makes & models.

American First Finance — All credit welcome. Pay over time.

Common Questions

Straight Answers

Do I need perfect credit?

No. American First Finance works with all credit types, including people who are still building or rebuilding theirs. Applying lets you find out where you stand.

How long does it take?

The application takes a few minutes on your phone. Most people have an answer quickly, so you can apply while you're still deciding whether to bring the car in.

Can I use it on any repair?

Yes, on any service we perform, from brakes to a full engine job. Bring your approval in and we'll apply it to the work.

What if I have questions in Spanish?

Se habla español. Call the shop and we'll walk you through the whole thing so you know exactly what you're signing up for.

Who decides my terms?

American First Finance does, not us. They set the approval amount and the payment terms. We just do the repair and apply the approval to your bill.

"I blew a head gasket and another shop's quote was outrageous. Lucia gave me an honest price over the phone — half what I was quoted. They found a low-mile engine and had my car done in 2 days. Finally, an honest auto repair."
