Review Our Service

Venice, FL

First time customer. I was referred to Doc Car by a customer impressed with their service. Several months ago, I bought a 2004 Jaguar S-type. Two weeks ago, in succession, I was alerted to low coolant, a check engine light, and loss of AC. Car documentation showed the oil hadn’t been changed in a year and aside from leaking, the wrong coolant/antifreeze was being used. I agreed to Doc Car offer to do a 21-point car inspection as part of an oil change, and a coolant flush. The initial inspection identified worn out tires, 20-year-old sparks plugs and numerous small leaks from worn out hoses and hose clamps. The AC problem was due to a faulty climate control unit and water pump. All brought to my attention when they took me into the shop and showed me firsthand the condition of the car and all the worn parts. Finding OEM/replacement parts for a 20-year-old car is monumental at best. Not only did they (specifically Stacy, parts guru extraordinaire) obtained all the parts and had my car running in a reasonable course of time. Although the entire staff at Car Doc are exceptional and treat you like family there are 4 that I need to single out : Adam - the dedicated mechanic who spent hours repairing the Jag. Stacy – parts service guru tracking and retrieving the water pump from Japan! Desiree – the tire expert and Michael who drove me back and forth to the shop. In my 60 years of owning cars, I have never experienced the kind of service Car Doc has provided me. And to top it off they warrant their work (except tires) for 3 years. I will highly recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Jose Ortiz, USN/DoD retired, Venice Fl

This place is AWESOME. I had to have my car towed by AAA and they would only bring it to an authorized repair shop... Car Doc on the island. I'm so glad they did. I thought I had an expensive repair pending. They found that the real problem was a malfunctioning component and replaced it, costing a fraction of what I had budgeted. That's what I call honest and reliable.
