If I could give a Zero I would. I'm saddened to report that not only did Art do a bad job painting my truck, he caused damage to it. He offered to fix the damages after several conversations back and forth with him denying any problems, creating a hostile environment. If you seen how bad of a paint job you'd fully appreciate how very much he sucks at doing paint jobs. I'm saddened he's refusing a refund of my money when If I took him to Court he'd have to pay that plus the damages. Unfortunately I'm very sick and can't handle going through the Civil Court Process right now. Please don't go here. He's very dishonest He painted my Roof and didn't even match the paint properly. He got overspray all over my back windows. He didn't take my roof rack off to paint and when he tried removing it incorrectly, he damaged it. My FJ Cruiser is my only vehicle and I've taken good care of it. I work hard to support my family and pay my bills on time and am struggling in this economy. I just can't believe he stole my hard earned money like this.

Art’s did an awesome job on my car. It looks brand new. They paid attention to the little details which made a world of difference. Takes pride in his work. I will bring all my auto business here.

Great experience! Art was very kind, called an updated me numerous times well my car was with him, and charged a reasonable price. My car turned out fantastic! I would recommend them to anyone who needs work on their car, and I will be going back for any future car repairs I may need.

I was thrilled Art accepted my truck to do rust repair. It was very bad and all the other body shops wouldn’t take it. Body shops take insurance jobs. My truck was worth nothing in the condition it was in. Art had it for a month and I rented a car for all of that time. It was well worth every cent I put into it. I am so pleased with how it came out. It was done right, no short cuts, and that’s what matters to me. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was told by accurate auto repair in Inverness that it would be 150.00 to recharge the ac unit after they replaced my radiator. Also told me my battery was faulty and leaking, which it was not. I decided against them and I stopped at Napa auto randomly and asked if they knew where I could get my ac checked. They referred me to Arts affordable auto repair, which is next door. Art checked it and it was fully charged but wires to my condensor were unhooked. Art connected everything back and only charged me 50 bucks. He was very honest with me and I didn't feel like I was getting the run around. Highly recommend Arts affordable auto repair. It's refreshing to find an auto repair that is HONEST. Thank you.

I was in such a jam with a new used truck I just bought spraying oil everywhere. Felt like life wouldn't cut me a break until I brought my truck into Art! Brought the truck into him overnight and it was fixed by morning. Affordable and Honest auto repair!!! I will never bring my vehicles anywhere else in the area but HERE. 10/10 recommend.

My wife and I were having issues with a truck we just bought. After realizing we needed a mechanic to look it over, Art accommodated us dropping the vehicle off after hours. The following morning, he had completed the repairs at an honest price and quick turnaround. Highly recommend this shop for your vehicle maintenance!

Called for a quote to swap out a starter for a 2006 Jeep SUV. Was quoted over 600.00 dollars. NAPA wanted 133.00 for the part. I could get a brand new starter online for $70 free shipping. I asked about just labor and was quoted $400. I asked and was told his labor rate is $100 an hour, which is a fair rate. But 4 hours for a starter swap??? I got the starter online and it took less than 45min. start to finish to change out. This guy quotes what he thinks he can get for a job, not what the job is worth. Lastly... When I asked if he was really saying it would take 4hrs he laughed and said that's how things work in today's world.

Art helped our family out in a pinch, and I'll be forever grateful! Had significant damage to our rear brakes as we rolled into town during a jam-packed family roadtrip with a totally booked itinerary starting early the next morning and having a booked stay in another city later that next night. I got a hold of Art late in the evening the day we arrived, and he was able to set us up for service in the a.m. the next morning. Got brakes and rotors done before 1p.m. the next day, at a very reasonable price. My family Thanks You, Art! Bless you for the rest of your days. <3

Beware was told free diagnosis and they ordered a relay switch. Charged me 48.00 for part only to find out can get from auto zone for 17.99. Went back and was told they mark up parts for diagnosis. And to find out the part they replaced wasnt even bad. BEWARE!!!!

Feb 07, 2023

Excellent job on my car. Discovered misdiagnosis by other shop, thereby saving me $$$$.

Recently relocated to Crystal River and was having trouble with my Buick Encore , and was skeptical about finding a reliable mechanic, but I tell you Art and his wife were very informative and explained everything to me, as a woman I felt comfortable and confident. I would recommend them if you are in to down home and friendly people.

Feb 07, 2023

They knew what they were doing and it took no time at all for them to fix the problem and very friendly people I would recommend they to everyone.

Feb 07, 2022

Art is a hidden GEM! He walked us through every step he was gonna do to find the issues with my sons 1998 Jeep Wrangler. Very honest and affordable. Do yourself a favor and call him in crystal river if you need an honest mechanic.

Had a coolant leak in our 2016 ram. Dropped it off and had it back the next day. Excellent work and very reasonable prices for the repair. Not to mention, the folks there were friendly and professional. Arts Affordable Auto repair is now our go to for all of our vehicle maintenance needs.

I feel bad putting a poor review because this is people's lively hood... However, what they may fail to tell you is that he ONLY works outside. If it's raining, your appointment will be cancelled. She forgot to get my phone number when I made the appointment. We went all the way up there just to be turned away. As far as his actual work.. IDK... We HAD to go somewhere else..

Great place! Friendly good people!

I went to Art when my truck was driving really weird. I spent days prior trying to figure out the issue before finally taking it to Art for his opinion. He spent 3 days with me trying to figure out what was wrong with the truck including him and his wife spending hours after closing trying to figure out what the problem was and they finally discovered that it was a burnt wiring harness. They truly went above and beyond for me. I would most definitely recommend them for your next auto repair or general maintenance issue.

Feb 07, 2021

They were able to get me a quote quick and fix everything in a few hours when I thought it would be days. Thanks again!

Great customer service!!!! Went to get new tires, rims and a leveling kit. Was able to get everything from them and even advised me on choosing the right rim size so I didn’t have issues down the road. Also picked the perfect size tire to get that little bit more lift without having them rub. Finally got the right level kit that made the truck sit perfectly!!! Oh P.S. labor was affordable and done right the first time!!!!!

Feb 07, 2020

Great experience. Very nice guy an good price's.

Feb 07, 2020

I highly recommend going to Art's Auto for any of your mechanical needs! He and his wife are a great team! Thank you Art for getting me back on the road!
