Tim is great. I hadnt had my car on the road as much as usual so wanted someone to check everything out. Dropped it off in the afternoon and it was ready the next morning. Felt like I got an honest appraisal of the vehicle. He took the time to explain everything he looked into including the manufacturer maintenance schedule. Then he was realistic about what should be fixed instead of just giving me a list with prices. Really would recommend his shop for your auto needs.

You know ladies it’s hard to find a good honest mechanic. Well today 7/23/21 I found that mechanic and his name is Tim. Google for a mechanic in my area and I went through the reviews gotta go the the reviews. And he had 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ so I called explained my issues with my old 99 love of my like car/suv. Tim knew what was the issue but I can admit it was nervous. Due to past experience with other mechanics. So I towed my car over to his shop and yes!!! It was fixed within a matter of minutes. I will be returning very soon so Tim give my car some much needed and lost pampering. Thank you Tim for your service and time I truly appreciate it. So stop by Tampa Bay Auto Care you will not be disappointed.

Tim is an excellent mechanic, who always works with my wife and I on our vehicles. He kept my 98 Escort running longer than it had any right to, and he has my current vehicle running perfectly, despite the fact that Ive put almost 2,000 miles on it each month for the last year. He doesnt overcharge for parts, and his service fees are always very reasonable.

Went for a inspection for my vehicle yesterday morning. Great experience! Will be back every year! Thank you.

Tim did a fantastic job on my car. Going home and looking up the costs of everything, I do honestly think he made it as affordable as possible to get everything fixed. Explained everything to me and made sure to outline what I should be doing next in terms of maintenance, I was pleasantly surprised that I got the car back same-day. Will be going back.

Tim is the best. I called around to multiple places to see if anyone could take my car because the check engine light was on and it was running oddly. He called me back immediately and told me a reasonable time-table and estimate. I dropped my car off and he told me everything that was going on and I had it back within 24 hours! Honest, timely, great value and such a nice person!!! Im going to him whenever my vehicle needs anything.

To sum it up, EXCELLENT all the way around. Michael Cartales

Tim is a rare breed: an honest mechanic. I took my 2008 Civic in for an oil change and a check on the front control arm bushings. Tim not only told me that they were in great shape and didn’t need to be replaced but took me out to the garage and actually showed me what good condition they were in for myself. He also provided a short list of other items to watch (along with estimated prices for each) and actually walked me around the vehicle and showed me each one. Zero sales pressure. This is my new spot for auto work!

Tim at Tampa Bay Auto Care is such an honest mechanic and really cares about his clients. He has fair prices and doesn’t try to sell you something you don’t need. He has even taken my car in on such short notice after breaking down on the highway. After getting my brake pads replaced he physically showed me how bad my old ones were compared to my new ones. Definitely recommend!

We contacted a lot of auto repairs and dealers to fix our car. Tim was the only one that really answered all the questions that we had and gave us a complete list of what we needed and the prices for everything. He was very helpful, professional, and explained every services in details. We definitely recommend this auto repair.

Literally blown away. Hands down the best mechanic I’ve ever worked with. His abilities as a mechanic can only be matched by his out of this world customer service. I will likely be driving 45 minutes every time I need my vehicle serviced because of my experience. Couldn’t recommend this guy more!

FLAWLESS experience 🚘! Being new to Tampa we were nervous to find a mechanic, especially bc we know nothing about cars. I of course turned to YELP. I was looking for someone who was honest and kind. Yelp delivered!! FIVE STARS HERE IS UNDERSTATED!!Tim was so kind and honest from start to finish. You can tell he takes his career seriously and his customers are treated like real friends.I have a Honda w WAY TOO MANY miles on it and a long long laundry list of things to fix. Tim walked me thru everything that was wrong w my car and explained to me the prices and how, why, and when I should fix them. He even mentioned my tires needed replaced and he said he’d rather me go get new tires than fix the next thing on the list for my safety........he doesn’t even sale tires! He was just suggesting that if I’m tight for money hed rather see me safe than get money!He quoted me a price at the beginning and gave me the exact same price at the end!! It was an “out the door price” no hidden fees or guesstimate on taxes or anything.He even had my old parts waiting for me when I went to pick it up to prove they needed replaced. I didn’t know what I was looking at...he knew I didn’t know what I was looking at but respected that I deserved to see what I spent money on.We will be back and we are so thankful we found an honest and quick mechanic!

Honest, professional clean shop. Worth the drive from St. Petersburg!

Without question, Tim is the most trustworthy and professional mechanic that I have ever used. Good or bad news is delivered. Work is done on time and within the money quoted for the work. I highly recommend checking him out.

These guys are awesome they did a wonderful job on my car would recommend them for any of your car needs

Tim is very professional, I was recommended to this place by one of my friend. Very impressive work by Tim, he doesn’t waste your time by giving you wrong estimations, he is always to the point and very reasonable rates for the service. I would really like to recommend all friends and relatives to this place. Now Tim is my service man for ever, thank you Tim

Tampa Bay Auto Care is not just a name but a mission statement. Tim really does take care of his customers by going above and beyond. He is extremely informative and patient when it comes to explaining small details about what your vehicle needs. You’re in great hands at Tampa Bay Auto Care!

Go here for your car needs !! They really got down to the root problem instead of putting bandages on. Even stayed late past hours to get my car done. Couldn’t recommend enough If you want someone who cares and not just looking for your money.

Had a great experience here. Had my clutch replaced and he took the time to explain what needed to be done and answered all my questions. My 10 year old SUV was back on the road in less than two days and is running beautifully. Very thorough and professional. Thank you to Tim and Steve.

In today’s society, dealing with a shady mechanic feels like the norm. Tim at Tampa Bay Auto Care is the exception. He does a thorough review of your vehicle, seeks ways to uncover cost savings, and thoroughly explains all of the options to you so that you can make an informed decision. He is honest and reliable and I am thankful that others left similar reviews so that I felt confident to bring my truck to his shop in the first place. The quality of work was excellent. Thanks so much, Tim.

Tim is a true professional. Honest, upfront and fair. I highly recommend this shop.

Excellent service!

We work with Tim regularly, He is awesome! It is truly a pleasure working with him. I highly recommend him to everyone.

Tim is very personable, informative, skilled, and a trustworthy mechanic. I wouldnt take my cars to anyone else. He always go the extra mile to help you out when you need repairs and reasonable with the costs of his services. 10 out of 10 recommend!

Tim is extremely professional and truly a caring man with the cleanest shop Ive ever seen. He looks after YOUR best interest. His pricing is fair and his customer service is exceptional. He stayed late to accommodate us and stayed even later walking us through the issues and details. I will come to Tampa Bay Auto Care for any of my needs and you should do the same!

Tim is an awesome mechanic! He takes his time to inform you about the issues with your vehicle and charges you a reasonable price. He keeps his shop clean and offers high quality service from start to finish, which is greatly appreciated! I would certainly recommend for people to give Tim a try, you will not regret it!

Excellent. Honest, quick to respond. Helped repair my daughters car near USF campus. 100% recommend...especially if you have a student away from home and need a place for routine maintenance and repairs.

Professional, caring, personable and overall a great guy whose looking out for you. Everything youd want in a mechanic. He is hands down the best mechanic in the Tampa Bay area. A great mechanic is worth his weight in gold and then some. This guy definitely fits that description.His pricing is very competitive on top of all that! My go to from now on.

Tim is an honest mechanic and is very thorough in his explanations for repair. I would not take my car to anyone else

Tim is the best mechanic around! Very helpful and his prices are second to none. Highly recommend.

POSTSCRIPT: As luck would it, my alternator died suddenly a week after the routine maintenance with Tim. Of course you cannot forecast this event so its not his fault. However, he replaced my alternator the same morning and got me back on the road faster and at less cost than any reasonable alternative. Thank you so much Tim - I would give you six stars if I could!--------------------------------------------------------------------I am very satisfied with the service at TB Auto Care. Tim is highly professional and knowledgeable, and, as others have said, very polite. The work was very reasonably priced and I drove away with confidence that high quality work was done. You definitely do not get the feeling that Tim pushes you into unnecessary jobs but he does identify issues that others might overlook or ignore and gives an honest assessment of how pressing or critical those issues are. In the past, I have used the Acura dealership but felt the work was grossly overpriced, and used independent service centers but felt they did only what I asked them to do and no more. If I knew everything my car needed, I would not need a mechanic! Tim is that happy medium. HIGHLY recommended and I will return.

Tim at Tampa Bay Auto Care is amazing! Its hard to find an honest, knowledgeable mechanic, so stop searching, look at all of the 5 star reviews, and go see Tim. With his knowledge and state of the art diagnostics, he had my 2014 Dodge Charger RT problem figured out, ordered the part, shipped same day, and fixed by the end of the day. That was impressive!

Tim is amazing, what I value about him he is honest and helps you as a customer to understand what you need. I been recommending him to everyone I know, because finding a mechanic like him is difficult as he is truly one in a million and I am happy and satisfied with his services.

The owner is very knowledgeable in his craft. Very honest and trustworthy guy!

Best auto repair! Very reasonable prices. We have used him twice! Very accommodating.Gets us in right away! Definitely would recommend!

Honest, good work, fair prices. What else can you ask for in a car shop? Definitely recommend.

Excellent service and very fair pricing. Tim explained to me what was wrong with my car and what I shound look for in the future. He even saved the bad parts so I could see and understand what the problem was. The shop is very clean and inviting. Thanks Tim, youre awesome.

I have taken my Honda Cr-V three times. Each time my issues were addressed and repaired. Tim is a great mechanic and very honest! I high recommend.

Thanks for fixing my Malibu. I came in with a laundry list of issues and Tim was honest and told me certain things werent needed, but hed fix them if I wanted. It feels like a completely different car now (in a good way). Thanks again...

Prices may be a bit higher than other mechanics, but they get legit parts from the manufacturer, not knockoffs, so your car will run better for longer.Extremely knowledgeable, and will even show and explain problems with the car so you get a sense of what the issues are.If they dont know how, or cant do something specific, they will point you in the right direction to someone just as great.

Tim is great I trust him with all my cars I highly recommend him

Friendly, accurate service.

Tim is an awesome mechanic! He is very knowledgeable, honest and competitive with pricing. Hes the guy I go to for my first and second opinion.

One of the best auto mechanic shops I know. I trust them with my maintenance and most challenging repairs, and the prices are very good.

If you can find a better auto repair shop I would be amazed. This is without a doubt the cleanest shop you will find also.

Honest, reputable service. Car runs great. Thanks for your service.

Tim is clean, honest and fast!! Highly recommend him for your service and maintenance needs.

Best mechanic in the Tampa Bay area. Honest and fair... I trust no one else with our vehicles.

Expert certified, mechanic, very knowledgeable, doesnt try to sell you work you dont need. The main reason I go here is that I trust Tim.

I was refered to Tim Royer by my sister-inlaw. I was so impresed by his shop! Not only was it spotless it was very welcoming. Tim preformed a oil change and full point inspection on my car. I loved how much he paid attention to detail and explained things to me so I knew exactly what was going on with my car. I highly recommend Tim for any Auto Care you might need!

Tim at Tampa Bay Auto Care is a great and honest mechanic. Will be back!...but hopefully not too soon.
