I have been there 3 times. Trans. fluid on the steering wheel the first time and brake fluid on the shifter the second. Went back a few months later for a charging issue. The problem was corrected, but got the car back with no a/c, no clock, and no cruise control. Never got a return phone call! Very poor customer service!!!

Finding an honest person to do any type of work for you is always nerve wrecking, whether it be a mechanic or whatever the situation. But when I went to Swansons auto, there wasnt an ounce of shady activity. There is literally no need to go anywhere else, these people are just simply good and have respect for us less knowledgeable people.

I’ve gotten my nitrous bottle filled multiple times and never had a problem with it or getting them filled from them. Price is on point and doesn’t cheat you out, weights the bottle before and only charges what he puts in. Great shop to take your car to and have it worked on.

Ron is a good and honest mechanic, which is difficult to find these days. He got my vehicle in quickly and took the time to properly rule out what I thought was an issue, saving me a ton in unnecessary repairs. I am not local, but if Im ever in need of services while Im in town visiting family, Ill be sure to bring my vehicle in and recommend it to anyone else.

Fast and friendly auto repair. I was driving back from Sarasota to Fort Myers and my serpentine belt broke. Called Swansons and they said bring the car by. They fixed it with no issues and fair on price. They have a coffee machine in the waiting room with a tv for customers waiting. Overall nice experience.

I cant say enough positive about the guy at Swansons; 4:45 this afternoon, Id just pulled into a business and discovered a hissing noise coming from my drivers side rear tire. Not knowing anyone for tire repair, I Googled tire repair near me, and it gave me Swansons, just 4 minutes away. I called them on my way there, and pulled into their lot. The guy plugged it and we were on the road again in less than 20 minutes; no charge. Of course, we gave him $20 in a show of gratitude, which we had to push for him to accept.What a breath of fresh air our experience with them was! Two thumbs up!

Cost us $1000. He couldnt fix it and kept the money. Had to go elsewhere to get it done correctly. DO NOT USE.

Th
Review №21

They could not diagnose our problem correctly. After a couple days they gave us a guess of what it might be and quoted a high price of over 500 to fix it. We took it elsewhere and someone else diagnosed it. Turned out to be a 145.00 part. Its not that I do not think they are honest. They seem to rely on computer diagnostics and with some cars (especially older ones) thats not always reliable or readable. They were very nice. I think they may do okay with easy things to diagnose. I just wouldnt go to them if you have a problem that isnt obvious. Thats just our experience with them. .***** I updated our review to three stars. The reason is because after seeing our review, Swansons called today to see if there was anything they could do to make things right.*****

I moved to Colorado two years ago. There are two things I miss from Florida: Publix subs and Swanson’s Auto. Haven’t come close to finding a mechanic half as good on this side of the Mississippi.

They were professional, the work was done in a timely manner, and the price was reasonable. Ill definitely be going back.

I recently had a bad experience at the Walmart auto shop. I waited over 3 hours only to find out that they couldn’t do my repair. I called Swanson’s Auto Repair and they took me in right away, and fixed it with NO problems! I’ve gone to them in the past and have always been pleased. I highly recommend them!

This company is run by two brothers that do a great job in their work. I was seen right away, and they fixed my AC problems quickly and efficiently. I mostly do all my own automotive repairs, but I really dont mess with HVAC or Transmission. Mechanics can be hard to trust sometimes, but this is a company that will get all of my business going forward.

Review №41

I was told I needed rear axle bearing and was quoted over $600 at a place 2 driveways down from Swansons. They said the parts would be $110 EACH. I took it to Ron at Swansons and he said he could do it for a lot less. He sure did! $360 was my total and that was even with an oil change. I was only without my car for a day once we agreed to do it. He seems honest and knowledgable and I would recommend him to my friends and family. As a female, its scary when youre trying to find a mechanic that wont rob u blind. Im relieved to know that I have found someone that I can go to when I need him. Thank you Ron!

Searched high and low for an excellent mechanic in North Port. Found him at Swansons Auto Repair. Performed professional fuel system cleaning, spark plug replacement, MAF sensor replacement - a tune up on my Beetle.--Work performed way under budget.--Super fast service.--No wait.--Conveniently dropped me off and picked me up at the library.--My 14 year old car hasnt run this good since it was new.When others told me that my engine was dying and wanted to replace the whole thing, I did some research and suspected it was just a faulty sensor. Stumbled upon Ron Swanson in the online yellow pages - researched his shop - turns out he is not just an innovative mechanic, but has a lot of talent and skill.I recommend them to everyone. Swansons Auto Repair saved my vehicle.

We were traveling from Ohio, on ourSecond day the air conditioner locked up. We contacted them and they were able to see us right away! They were honest and disconnected the A/C andDid not charge us! They put us back to our vacation in 15 minutes. They assured us that they were there to help us if we needed further assistance. Highly recommend them and would trust them completely.

Review №55

I brought my car to them after it stalled out on me. After a couple of days of trying to diagnose it in between other cars they worked on, they concluded it was my PCM (Powertrain Control Module) which would have cost me a little over $500 dollars to fix. Getting the impression that not much was done to inspect it outside of hooking a computer to it, I wanted a second opinion because I dont have much money to begin with and blowing $500 dollars or more on a probably is hard decision to make. So i took it somewhere else. When I picked it up the battery was dead and it is less than two months old. At least I know they tried something. Plus to their credit, they didnt charge me a dime. Most places want $75 to $125 dollars just to look at your car. To put things in perspective, the car is very old. It is a 1995 Buick Regal and though you can run diagnostics on it, the results will not be nearly as precise as modern cars that have sensors for everything. The vehicle has a little over 250,000 miles on it and I have been driving it for a while with the check engine light on it. One of the symptoms, other than the car not starting, of a bad PCM, ECM, is almost, if not all, the sensors show bad. To their credit, had I brought the car in before it broke down, their diagnostic tool probably still would have lit up like a christmas tree. They called me a few days later to see if I ever was able to discover the problem and I did. It was the ICM(Ignition Control Module). So they were close, but over $500 dollars would have been spent and car still not run. If you have an older car I would suggest attempting to find a mechanic who has experience with them which is getting harder to find. If you have a newer car then Swansons may be the place for you. I dont believe they were dishonest in any way, nor did anything to try and take advantage of me. When I get a later model car I would be willing to give Swansons another chance.
