At Specialty Automotive Service & Repair, we work to get customers back on the road as fast as possible. At the same time, our service adviser will take the time to understand your service goals, help you prioritize repairs, and keep you in the loop as to what needs to be done to maintain your vehicle, so there are never any surprises. We can also give you an estimate of the price of the work that needs to be done. If you're in an emergency situation, we'll handle your job with appropriate urgency, and even contact other auto repair shops in the Bend area (that we know and trust) in the event we're not able to get you in right away. We understand that sometimes waiting is not an option, so we'll make sure you can get an appointment and get a mechanic on the job in no time.

On the flipside, if you're a client at another Bend auto repair shop and they're busy, we will do our best to get you going for them. We'll also keep in touch with your shop, so they know what we did to your vehicle. As a local city business, we work with our surrounding businesses to make a difference and set an example.
