High Gear Automotive Inc. - Englewood, Florida

High gear went above and beyond to fix my vehicle when it seemed like it wouldn’t be possible to find the parts necessary to complete the repairs at a reasonable cost. In fact, the final bill was $200 less than the original estimate.

Most important, the honesty, integrity and excellent communication made this one of the best experiences I have ever had with an auto repair facility.

I can’t thank them enough.

This place is a joke and they don’t care about you or you car. I took my car in because the window was off the track. The motor sill worked fine. All I wanted them to do was reattach the window to the plastic brackets that attach to the motor. I thought it would only be like a hundred bucks. Well I got a call where they quoted me at like 700$ for a new window and motor. I said I’ll just do it myself and took my car back. They still charged me like 75$ for the “work” they did which was ripping my door panel out and making a general mess of everything. They didn’t even put my door panel back on. I went and got some jb weld and fixed it myself for 10$. There was absolutely no reason for them to even suggest replacing anything at all. My window is now in perfect working condition no thanks to them. I’m sure if you have alot of money and don’t care if they charge you to replace things that don’t need it then this place is for you.

These guys are busy for a reason. I'm very impressed with the level of service and quality they offer for the price! They are straight shooters and don't BS you trying to up sell extra service. Most importantly, they stand behind their work and warranty! I won't go anywhere else for maintenance on my vehicles.

I recently took my car to High Gear Automotive for a problem I was having. I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly, professional, and eager to help. They took the time to listen to my concerns and provided clear explanations about the repair needed.

The work was done quickly and efficiently and my car now runs better than ever. The pricing was transparent and fair. I also appreciated the clean and comfortable waiting area which made the short wait time even more pleasant.

What truly sets High Gear Automotive apart is their commitment to customer satisfaction. They followed up with me a few days after this service to ensure everything was running smoothly and to answer any additional questions I might have had.

I highly recommend High Gear Automotive to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy auto service. They have earned my trust and future business! Thank you High Gear Automotive for a fantastic experience!

The best car care since I left Connecticut. The owner, Thad, is an expert with Toyota, Honda, Subaru and every other Japanese and S. Korean cars. American and European models are also a part of his repitoire. Professional, on-time and on budget. The best Auto shop in this area.

Thad is a rockstar! We had a pretty nasty and difficult job that he was willing to attack in a very short timeframe and pulled it off for less than what was originally quoted! He saved us big time! Thanks for being amazing. You will always have our business.

It's great to have a local auto shop we can trust in Englewood. We used them several years ago before we even moved here and they were very helpful and even advised us of some work that should be covered by a warranty which saved us a lot of money. Thad helped me work with O'Reilly Autoparts recently for another repair which included a battery which was also warrantied. We've always found them to be professional, honest and thorough. We would recommend them.

I can't say enough good things about this place. My husband's truck was flooded after Hurricane Milton blew through. It ran for about a week, then died. We took it to High Gear and they said they'd look at it THE NEXT DAY. They did, and they told us it was probably the starter. We gave them the go-head to switch that out and it was done THE NEXT DAY. It was certainly a bright spot in our Milton Muck. Thank you, High Gear Automotive!!! ❤️❤️❤️
