This is a great place for auto repair and pre-purchase inspections! I wanted to get my new used car inspected to ensure there were so serious problems with the car, and they did a full and thorough report on the car to make sure I was getting a good deal. They sent a full report via text and printed on the report as well so I could have it on my phone and paper copy. They were super friendly and answered all my questions about the needed repairs, and they assured me I was buying a good car for the price. It's great to have that piece of mind when purchasing a used car because you never know what you're getting until you have the professionals take a look.They said the car needed new rear brakes, new windshield wipers, and a few other things. They provided pictures of the brakes so I could see for myself. I could tell the windshield wipers needed to be replaced the first time I drove it home. Very trustworthy and honest mechanics.Highly recommend!

Today on my way to work my front tire blew out. I pulled over and put on the spare, which turned out to be flat also. I limped the car over to Strong Automotive hoping they could air up the tire for me. They let me pull the car up, aired up the tire, and even torqued the lug nuts for me. I tried to pay, and he wouldn't accept it! Made it to work and home again. Thank you so much, you really saved my day. I'll be spreading the word.Service: General repairs & maintenance

Took my 2005 ford explorer after having an issue with the quality from a different automotive shop. Strong helped me out and also gave a free diagnostic with my (new to me) car. Would go again. Definitely using them to get the suspension fixed as well. Thank you.

I highly recommend Strong Automotive for their integrity, expertise, and awesome customer service. I was 1300 miles from home with 2 young kids when my 2019 SUV began overheating in the late afternoon 110 degree heat of Redding. I knew Mike and his crew worked on my dad’s classic Chevy through the years and could be trusted. The owner Mike supplied a loaner car since he would not be able to get my car up on the rack until the following morning. Turns out the radiator that was replaced previously after hitting a deer, had a factory defect. Mike took care of coordinating with the other shop in the Midwest since the repair was covered under their warranty, even boxing and shipping the defective radiator. Mike recommended that we drive up to Weaverville to make sure everything was good before heading back home. Mike even called a few days later to make sure everything was good with car through our trip home. If you’re looking for a locally owned shop with integrity, Strong Automotive is your best bet. Thanks again Mike….Mrs. Roy RServices: General repairs & maintenance

Michael Strong and colleagues were amazing! We were on a road trip from the Bay Area and thanks to Yelp we found his shop. Even though they were very busy, the squeezed us in, made a diagnosis within a very short period of time and fixed the problem very quickly. Michael and Mike were extremely savvy, fast and kind. I give them an all star rating!

Michael Strong is owner. There are three Michaels who work there. Very kind men. A stressful situation with my car occurred as I was driving from Shasta back to Sacramento. I highly recommend coming here after being treated with kindness!

Traveling thru Redding, called at 8:00 am for issues with what we thought was our starter! Brought the vehicle in at 8:05, they ran a bunch of diagnostics & determined everything was good to go! AND they didn’t charge us! Thank you for your honesty and kindness towards us! We are grateful!

Can't say enough good things about Strong's, the best auto shop in town! They've been working on our cars for years, and after my 2002 Toyota Camry decided it didn't want to start ( old original starter it turned out! ) Stong's was the first place I called. Within an hour of calling them and getting my car into the shop, figuring it would be a couple of days before I could get it back, they had me on the road! And if you pay with cash or debit they save you an additional 3% on service charges! These guys are the BEST!

Mark at Strong Automotive was great to work with! My car broke down and he was able to accommodate me immediately and had it fixed by early the next day. For as inconvenient as a car issue is, these guys helped me get back up and running immediately.

My 1999 Ford Expedition was sputtering on the way to Strong's Automotive and a couple hours later I got a call that it was repaired; and for far, far less than I was expecting. These guys know what they're doing! I am a return customer and will return again, but hopefully not too soon.Service: Auto engine diagnostic

Picture this, 3 hours into your 10 hour roadtrip you stop at In-N-Out for some lunch and once you go to leave your car won't start. 7 hours from home you desperately try to jump the battery, google diagnostics and ways to fix it to no avail. You begin calling every repair shop google shows you, they all can't see you until the next day or next week. Panic sets in. The Les Schwab you call recommends a place called Strong Automotive and you give em a call. Keep in mind this is 2pm on a Thursday afternoon and the tow truck is still an hour out. You're met with Mike on the other end of the phone, he is kind, helps you problem solve, and then, by some miracle says he can fit you in TODAY and get you back on the road that evening. He orders the parts before you are even there and his team jumps right in when you arrive. After a couple hours of repairs, you're back on the road.I'll be praising this shop to anyone who will listen. 5 other repair shops were rude, unaccommodating, and unavailable for us. But Mikes team stayed overtime to get our vehicle fixed and on the road. We were able to get home safely that night all thanks to them. Thank you so so so so so much for helping these 2 lost Oregonians get home. You are all kind and wonderful human beings that give me faith in humanity again.Service: Auto engine diagnostic
