I started come here when I moved to the area last year because they had great reviews. As it turns out the reviews were true. Everyone hates going to an auto mechanic figuring you’re going to get screwed. Car Doc is HONEST AND STRAIGHT FORWARD in their assessment of what is needed and the cost. This is the only place I would bring my car - I haven’t tried anywhere else and don’t need to.

I have been taking my 2 vehicles to CarDoc since moving to the area 4 years ago. These guys are experts, they know their cars! And equally important, they are honest and will only sell you the services and maitenance your car actually needs. By far the best in Venice!

First time using them. They did a very nice job- oil chg, tire rotation, changed brake fluid. Also a multi-point check of the whole car. They let you know the condition of many components and if they need service or not and what condition they're in. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable office staff.

Wonderful shop. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Worked with me the whole way through repairing my vehicle and kept me informed of the issues. Reasonably priced and quick service. Honestly best shop I've been to in Florida. 5+ stars!

First time I tried the Car Doc. Was recommended by a coworker. From the first phone call to them I could tell they were very professional. All I needed was an oil change so they picked up my car. Couldn't believe that they did a car fax and found out my oil wasn't changed since 2022, Stacy kept me informed about everything that was going on. I bought a used car which I was told by Stacy that after everything I have a good car. They went above and beyond what I expected and the price was impressive. Being single I was concerned who I would trust. Glad I picked Car Doc. Thank you for your great service.

01/30/2024

Was out of town and found a nail in my tire. They patched my tire in under 30 min and I was on my way. Very polite and professional. No sales pressure to buy a new tire. They also used a calibrated torque wrench to tighten the lug nuts, which most tire places do not. I would recommend them for any type of auto service.

Been going to the Car Doc for almost 20 years. Won't go anywhere else for my vehicles needs! Very very knowledgeable staff and very quality work. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!



01/18/2024

I have not been inside this shop but today was a very rough day for me until this very sweet young lady Deserae showed up out of nowhere to help me. I was pulled over on the side of the road with a flat tire and shame on me I had no clue what to do. I had my 1 year old daughter with me and of course my phone was on 3%. As I sat there crying a Car Doc vehicle pulls up and she asked me if I needed help. I told her what happened and within 20 minutes she had my spare tire on for me. If these are the kind of people that work in this shop I definitely want to trust them with my vehicle! Great job Car Doc! Wonderful employees! Thank you so much Deserae.

I don't recall their names but the two ladies at the office were very professional and very friendly. Super professional. And the office was so clean and organized, when I walked in I was so surprised, I wasn't sure if I was in the right place because it's not your typical dusty oily mechanic shop office!! It's very pleasant and presentable. The building looks like it was just painted and you can tell the team here respects their establishment. They appear to all take ownership in maintaining a professional image. I was very happy with the work that they performed and the price. Just for the record someone did call me through out the repair process to keep me informed and gave me a quote and allowed me to make decisions through out the process which I really appreciate.

I'm from upstate New York. I had no appointment to this fabulous business The Car Doc! I was greeted by Stacy and Desiree...the two most professional and kind ladies I've ever met!

Car dealer said that I had a bad wheel bearing and gave me a price to repair it. I took it to Car Doc for a second opinion they confirmed the bearing needed to be replaced but their quote was hundreds of dollars less than the dealership. I told them to go ahead and they had it done in less than 90 minutes. I'll go back to them for all my car needs now.

Electrical Services
09/11/2023

I took my car to MandMaudio on Colonia Lane in Nokomis, FL to have a radio installed on July 5th 2023. I waited for my car to be completed, paid for the installation and started for home. Got 3 blocks away, tried to put my window down to no avail. Turned around immediately and returned to MandMaudio. Had the installer try to remedy the problem, :"Can't help you, the car's too old". Went back numerous times as the entire electrical system broke down a piece at a time. They wanted NOTHING to do with destroying my car's electrical system. Trying to resolve the electrical problem, I searched out 4 or 5 places. NO ONE WANTED ANYTHING TO DO WITH MY CAR. As I was walking out of Publix on the Island, I noticed a pick-up truck that read "Car Doc" . I walked up to the Technician in the garage who's name was Ron, and proceeded to explain my problem. It just so happens that Ron is very knowledgeable in all aspects of electrical systems in cars. He was able to get "The Hyundai Hotel" back to her old self in 2 DAYS. WOW!!! I HIGHLY recommend this establishment to ANY and EVERYONE that has any car trouble WHATSOEVER!!!!!!!



reviewicon
09/02/2023

Excellent customer service!!!! You feel that they want to take care of you and help your mechanical needs instead of rip you off. Was able to get our car fixed after I was told by another shop that it needed a new engine. I'm definitely bringing all my vehicles here and telling as many people I know to bring theirs!

We called Car Doc with a flat tire while visiting Florida from Michigan in April. They took us in immediately and diagnosed the problem as defect. We chose to replace that tire and another and place both new ones on the front. They found the tires and completed the work quickly. Very knowledgeable, quick and professional. Would work with them again.



08/16/2023

On Sunday July 2 all the warning lights in our car went on at the same time including the engine light. July 3 we called 5 auto repair places and no one could even look at until Friday the 7th. Then we tried Car Doc on the Island. Stacy was wonderful, said bring it right over as she had a technician that could look at it that morning. She called twice with updates on the diagnostics they ran and then called with the final price. It was finished same day before the July 4 holiday. We really appreciated her updates, very fair price and excellent quick service. As it is our only car so we were very, very grateful. Highly recommend this shop!

AC Repair, near Venice
07/28/2023

I was told by my car dealership that I needed a new air conditioner compressor. $2,000.00 worth of work! They charged me $139.00 for a compressor test. I came to Car Doc in Venice for a "second opinion". They did a test and found out my car ONLY NEEDED a Freon recharge at one tenth of the price my dealership was going to charge me. Please give them a chance - they sure saved me a lot of time and MONEY.

07/21/2023

I always have horrible experiences with going to auto shops. I'm always given a large bill with no communication of what is going on. This company proved me wrong. They have gone above and beyond and they are there to answer my questions. Stacey got me in same day when I needed my car looked at and took the time to explain what is wrong with my vehicle and what needed to be done to keep me safe on the road. I have had nothing but a great experience with this auto shop and they are just amazing!



07/10/2023

Had my very old 2002 PT Cruiser brought in for an oil change and got a free 12pt inspection. I knew I had some issues with the car. Car Doc provided me with a detailed list of items that needs to be addressed. Addressed the safety issue repairs in a timely manner. Completely happy with the services from the moment I made the call to Car Doc to arrange for oil change, to picking my car up after repair completion! Can?t thank you enough!

Have been taking both my husband and my car there for years. Very honest and quick service.



06/26/2023

In Short, an honest, up front auto shop that does what they say. But, let's roll back. Ok, let's start with my inability to trust mechanics, auto shops, dealerships, contractors, restaurants, etc, at this point in my life. I have used great auto shops and I have had less than desired experiences. Because of this, I spend a lot of time researching repair shops and reading reviews. My wife's Explorer had no working A/C. Problematic for FL. Start the research on shops specifically on A/C. I came across Car Doc On The Island. Their google review rating was unbelievable, 4.9 out of 5. Ok, what was that based on, 20 reviews? No, closing in on 300 reviews. And these were glowing reviews, not the standard friends left a review to boost things. So, time to schedule. I was able to schedule online very easily. I Received a call the day before to confirm the appointment. We brought the vehicle in and they remembered the issues from the appointment request. Now, this was not the mechanic but the front office staff. They explained in detail what they would do, quoting the cost down to the parts required. Friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. Once the repairs were done, they called and texted the completion of the repair. We went back a short while later and everything was ready to go. The entire experience was very positive. Their pricing was very competitive, and they were considerate throughout the process. We do recommend Car Doc On The Island and we will return as the need arises.

06/26/2023

My family and I have used other repair shops in the past but we were always over sold on work to be done to our vehicles and repairs were not always done correctly. With that being said with the friendly & knowledge staff and the expertise of Stacy the manager is bar to none. I highly recommend this shop as I will not go anywhere else and they also have a warranty to back up their work unlike all the other shops in town.

Very happy with the service. They provide a perfect mix of friendly and professional. Erin asked the right questions to give the tech a good idea of what the issue was, [intermittent working] and they got the car back to me that afternoon. It's a pleasure to deal with a locally owned business that Provides quality, honest work.

We take our van to Car Doc on the Island at least once a year for a safety check & any needed repairs before we drive north for the summer. They provide the most thorough, easy-to-understand checklist we have seen. Service manager Stacy Morton has the ability to explain the findings on the checklist in incredibly technical-but-easy-to-understand detail and make recommendations in a caring, no-pressure way. Service Advisor Erin is also very knowledgeable and is happy to provide a ride home and back while our car is being serviced. I have found the crew at the Car Doc to be honest and highly skilled, and I would highly recommend them.

I needed two new tires very quickly they did the work very fast.



05/03/2023

My hubs and I took our vehicle to Car Doc on the Island last week. After trying to get into Matthew Currie Ford our dealership to look at my car since it was stuttering when I tried to go from 15 miles per hour to like 35-40. I also noticed I had a motor mount that was cracked and thought that could be the culprit, my engine was moving as I drove. The lady at Ford, who took my call in the service department quoted me 30 days out to have my car LOOKED at and 90 days for transmission issues which she was positive* it was (without looking at my car.) That was not going to work, if something was that wrong with my car 90 days is too long to wait, I kind of read that answer like, we do not want to service this. I called Car Doc on Venice Island by Publix remembering a positive experience there once when I needed an oil change, and I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER... Stacy and Erin in the office got me in the NEXT day to diagnose and only took 3 business days to put me back into my car! Yes, it was a little pricey but not as pricey as a new transmission! It ended up being my torque converter-motor mount-and I needed a belt replacement. Had I waited the 90 days my transmission would have blown due to the torque converter and I would have been paying Ford a ton more... Car Doc saved my wallet/car, they took photos, and supplied me with a 'moving forward' maintenance sheet that is SO helpful, Stacy even walked me in the garage showing me my parts that had to be replaced. I will continue to go there, thanks Stacy & Car Doc!!

We have a 2019 Audi A6. The dealer said we needed an AC evaporator for $6000. This brought us to Car Doc. Stacy talked with us over the phone and she knew her stuff which gave us a warm/fuzzy. The second opinion was well worth the $$ spent. Their diagnosis was thorough and well documented. No evaporator was needed! And she had us bring the car back the next week (NC) to make sure it was working correctly. Car Doc is our new "go to" car repair. Thanks to everyone there for great service and attention.



04/26/2023

Always friendly and give full details when work needs to be done on your vehicle. No need to take my car anywhere else in Venice.

WONDERFUL!!!! Would've left a 10 star review if possible. Could've easily charged me to have all my brakes repaired, but called to tell me that my front brakes were in great shape and only needed to replace the rear brakes. Unheard of in my experience!!! I'm new to the area but am a customer for life. Extremely kind and informative!!!



03/10/2023

I brought my 2013 Mercedes E350 Cabriolet to Car Doc for a complete brake service. Shop manager "Stacey" gave me a fair price over the phone. After shop tech inspected my car, Stacey called to inform me rear pads and rotors did not need to be replaced. Thank you Car Doc, Stacey/Tech for your honesty and excellent work. I recommend Car Doc on the Island to anyone with car issues. Thank you.

This is an outstanding local business that I found by chance! I needed air in my motorhome inside dually tire which is very difficult to get an air hose to. The office staff immediately asked a very competent service tech to service the tire. They would not let me pay for their service so I simply tipped their tech. I was greeted with a smile by everyone, and noticed right away that they truly value customer service. Guess where all my future car and truck service needs will be done? Y'all are the best!

If I could give Stacy and the crew 1 million stars I absolutely would. There is nothing better as a young woman to trust and rely on my mechanics to not only be honest but courteous while I ask my hundreds of questions and Stacy is always willing to explain and take my service to the next level but not over charge. I will always go to Car Doc for car repairs and maintenance.

I've had a couple great experiences at The Car Doc on Venice island. Stacy is the most knowledgeable person I've ever dealt with when it comes to vehicles. I've taken my car to another place in Sarasota for over 5 years and wasn't receiving the services I was paying for. Thankful that Stacy explains everything in detail as what needs to be done now and what can wait till next time and they give you a warranty to back up their work, what more needs to be said.

I recently had my car serviced at Car Doc on the Island. The technician did a full inspection. I was given a written estimate for the scheduled maintenance that was due and the bill was exactly that amount. No surprises! I was also told of upcoming manufacturers services that would be due by my next oil change. Stacy also arranged for my car to be picked up and dropped off after the service was completed. This level of customer service is a lost art today! I will be using them for all my car repairs.

Alignment and wheel bearings. This place was unbelievable to deal with. Kathy was wonderful to deal with on the phone and immediately set up an appt right away for us. Danny the Mgr spent his time going over every bit of the repairs we needed and showed us what he was talking about. Not only did they have the car done early then expected Danny went an hr out of his way to find a matching hubcap. Since our car had to stay overnight they actually drove us to a rental car place!!

I wanted to give it a little time after the repairs were finished before I reviewed the work. A week or so feels about right. My shifter knob wouldn?t go into reverse or first gear at all and I had a fuel leak. I came in without an appointment, was seen immediately, and told that they would look at it and let me know. After leaving I was contacted later that same day to say they would be able to get started on it that day, and that the work should be finished by the next day. They delivered on their promises and then some. All pricing was fair and transparent. The stick feels brand new. The fuel line was fixed. On top of that, my muffler was sagging and they fixed that, too, at no charge. Everyone there was very courteous and professional. I will be going to them exclusively from now on.

Car Doc on the Island did fix my problem and they will get all of my future business!!! My 2008 Passat wagon was constantly having a dead battery. Local repair shop could not find it. So I fell back on going to Sunset Volkswagen the closest dealer. Was advised by them that they could not take the car in for service until after Thanksgiving which is 2 weeks away. And then they told me that they no longer service cars that are older than 2010!!!!! This is a disgraceful level of lack of service by the dealer.

It is difficult finding a trustworthy mechanic these days, and I am so glad that I found Car Doc. I have an older Toyota that desperately needed servicing, and my experience was a very positive one. They explained everything that was needed, and provided me with an estimate considerably lower than the Toyota dealership. Service was fast and the staff was incredible. My car has not run this smoothly in years! They even followed-up with me a few days later to see how my car was running. I was very impressed with them and would highly recommend Car Doc to anyone.

My car was in dire need of tires. Because of a wonderful experience that my son had with Car Doc on the Island, I decided to go talk to them about the tires. They are very friendly and helpful. I couldn?t be happier with my experience. They advised me on what tires would work best on my car (not the most expensive), ordered the tires, arranged for installation, balancing and alignment. On the day of my appointment to have the work done, they came over and picked my car up and brought it back when it was done. You couldn?t ask for better service than that! I recommend Car Doc on the Island in. Venice, Fl very highly.

My wife and I move to Venice in 2017. Our Mazda needed routine service. We finished grocery shopping a Publix and I noticed Car Doc On The Island next to Publix. So, I thought I would give them a try. I met with Ana and we hit it off right away. She was so attentive, polite and courteous that I found myself wondering, "Am I really in an auto service and repair shop?" I also met Ana's husband Mike and he was exactly the same. The best way to describe their service is fantastic! Mike, Ana and their entire staff are very knowledgeable, courteous and respectful to their customers. They have always taken care of all of my auto needs in a professional and timely fashion. I simply could not ask for more from an auto service/repair shop! So, if you are looking for the best in auto service/repair around. You need look not further than Car Doc On The Island!!! You won't be disappointed!

Our 2012 Mini Countryman was in need of a new headlight - we're new to the area (Venice) and the closest Mini Dealership wasn't convenient so we took a chance on Car Doc On the Island. We arrived without an appointment, Mike, the owner, confirmed it was only a bulb, but he had to get the part from Ft. Myers which would take a few hours for the part to arrive which would have been close to or after closing. We said we could come back the next day so not to have him wait on us - his response was "no worries. I'll stay as long as it takes". Mike not only provided a great service, he's also a very likable man. Hopefully, we won't be in need of his services anytime soon but we will definitely be going back to Car Doc!!

An honest mechanic, no kidding! I had my car towed to a dealership service dept. They said I needed a new battery and an alternator. I just bought a new battery so I was suspicious, so I took it to Car Doc they found the problem and it did not need a new battery or alternator. The dealership service dept. wanted to charge me $865 and that would not have fixed the problem! Car Doc on the Island charged me $148 and my problem was solved, Don't go to dealership service departments, they are on commission to sell you as much as possible.

Car Doc responded promptly to identify and fix the problem my mother-in-law had with her car. Mike, Anna, and the techs there treated her with respect and searched diligently for the needed part. She is so grateful to have a safe and reliable car. Thank you so much. She now can enjoy her time in Florida.

Car Doc really helped me out after another place said they couldn't do anything for me without a huge pricetag. They fixed the issue very quickly for a very reasonable price. Good people, good service. I'll definitely be returning!

I had my front brakes repaired. I was very pleased with the service and quality of the work that was done. I live in another state so it was nice to work with a family owned business.

So impressed. I went in today with two hard to diagnose problems that turned out to not be problems. Matt, the technician explained the non - issue and Tony at the front desk told me no charge. What??? Car repair with no charge for even time? Don't look anywhere else. Clean, organized and friendly. Publix is next door as well as Brew Burgers. Doesn't get any better.

Car Docs, by far, is the best place to take your vehicle for any service. Every time we have visited our family and friends in Florida it seems that we have car problems and Mike & Anna have always been there for us with quick and excellent service. With the 29 point service check they provide it is indeed just like going to the doctor for a physical. They do this service to help the customer, not try to do a hard sell like so many other places. With Mike and Anna, when they tell me that our vehicle needs something I always say "Let's do it" Thank you so much Mike and Anna for treating my wife and I like family, you are the best! 2019 Update: My wife and I finally made a permanent move down here in Sunny Southwest Florida and after getting settle in we bought a used Mitsubishi convertible sports car to help save on fuel and also take advantage of the beautiful weather that we have for most of the year. It had a few strange noises and was running a little rough so we took it in to the Car Doc on the Island and they did a complete check up. The guys there found things that I would have never found until I needed them, like the broken windshield washer and the brakes that needed new pads and rotors.Thank you again for such a complete check, the car runs great and it's very fun to drive.

Great place for repairs on my 20 year old 1999 Chevy S10 pickup. Anyone with an older vehicle should defiantly consider Car Doc for their diagnostic and maintenance needs.

What a great experience with Car Doc on the Island! They worked with my schedule, allowing me to drop my vehicle for previously quoted service and shuttled me to and from a local appointment. The service was completed in a very timely manner. Not only that, the invoice was exactly what the quote reflected, with no surprises! I recommend visiting with Anna & Toni Marie at Car Doc for your auto service needs. Great service, competitive pricing and smiles ahead of the other guys!

We are new owners in Venice. On our recent visit we had car problems. The staff and owner at Car Doc couldn't have been more helpful. Quick service repairing our vehicle and even courtesy rides to make it a wonderful experience. They will be our go to mechanics from now on.



reviewicon

Car Doc is the best auto repair shop in Sarasota County! It's a family business, and they act that way! The mechanics are dedicated and hard workers! Mike, the owner, will actually take time out of his schedule, and ride in your car with you, until he finds the problem! Do you know any other owners who will do that? I don't! Also, his wife, Ana and Toni always make you feel welcome when you enter. I have a Volvo! Great car, but when they break you must take it to expert repair shops which are few and far between! Again, Car Doc is the best!!



reviewicon

I have been a customer for almost 20 years. Mike and his staff are the BEST you will ever find. Honest, fair price, and above all Friendly. I trust them with all my company trucks and personal vehicles. Ask about the LIFETIME OIL CHANGE .. best deal ever! Thanks for all you do.

As an out of stater on Spring Break, couldn't thank the Car Doc enough for fixing an issue with our car. Very kind and up front and the loaner car was a very nice touch. We have had car issues in the past while on vacation and have had some good luck with service and repair but nothing like our experience with the folks at The Car Doc. If you have the need for a service/repair shop in the Venice area, the Car Doc is first rate. Can't speak highly enough of our experience with them.
