I’ve been bringing my vehicles to Southend Auto Care since before it was Southend Auto Care. I’ve known Owner Mark Hanson for more than 25 years and when I think of Mark and his crew at Southend, the word relationship comes directly to mind. If you find a great mechanic you stick with that person. Southend is fair, competitive, honest, courteous, knowledgeable, reliable, neighborly and trustworthy. They’ve never tried to oversell me. If my vehicle needs it they tell me, if it doesn’t they tell me that too. For example, my heater was working intermittently last winter. Instead of telling me to bring it in for an expensive radiator job Paul suggested simply adding some coolant to see if that would do the trick. Sure enough, done deal… Paul has even given me some outstanding vacation ideas. Southend Auto Care is great people who know their stuff, an unbeatable combination!

Mark has been our family's mechanic since 1990. His attention to detail and his honesty make him our ONLY mechanic. We even had a car towed over 100 miles to his shop!

Just drove by their shop(passing through) pretty easy to see the Giant sign off to the side of the road. Not knowing alot about cars I still felt very comfortable with the advice that was given by the Owner ? Mark/paul not sure which is which spoke with both. Very glad I didnt have to wait at their shop the whole time my car was worked, they did have wifi but i cant stand staying hours in one spot, can drive me crazy ;) so they offered me two choices to take a loaner car that i didnt have to pay for say whaaaat.. too bad im not 25 yet, but they did have a shuttle service which offered to take me up to the local mall so I could get some shopping in while they took care of my car. It did take kinda long for them to get back to me with what was going on but it was also pretty busy when i dropped off my car and picked it up so I let it slide this time lol but I was sold on the very good review when i saw that they vacuumed my car and washed it. sry guys i know my cars gross. Overall I felt comfortable while there, felt good about leaving my car there, only downside was the time it took to get back on the road but hey it still got taken care of the same day, my dad says price was legit for what they did i guess and my cars still working like couple months later and its very clean now because of the guys at South End Autocare

I recently had my 90k service done at Southend Auto Care. The staff were knowlegable about my car and the customer service was excellent. The owner himself even detailed my car! They obviously appreciated my business, thanks guys.

I have been taking my cars to Southend for 14 years. I have always had excellent service each time I went. The work has always been done timely and accurately. I would highly reccomend anyone with a car problem to take it to Southend Auto Care because the owner is extremely honest and forthright and will not ever steer you wrong.
