Auto Parts in Marathon, FL

“Wow just wow! Thank you to the Island Auto family. They always out do themselves. They kept me updated the whole way through the repairs. They are so detailed and dedicated to what they do. You all did an outstanding job!!!”

“My Yanmar engine overheated north of the 7-mile bridge near Marathon. I called multiple diesel repair shops that I found with a google search, but was repeatedly told that none were available for 7-8 days. I spoke with Luis at Marathon Diesel Repair, he said he could look at my engine in 5 days. The next morning, I spoke with Luis, a certified Yanmar mechanic for 27 years. He said there was a job that was finishing quicker than anticipated and may be able to diagnose the problem that afternoon. On that Friday afternoon he sent two technicians to my boat. They quickly diagnosed the problem, had the correct gasket in stock and had raw water flowing strongly through the system. The price was very fair, and everyone was kind.”

“Big thank you to Billy, who saved the day on Friday. Just before his vendor closed, he was able to order the part we desperately needed. Couldn’t believe how easy he made the process! Thank you so much!”

“First time customer. Made a call via phone to make an appointment to get oil changed. Received text asking for license & vin number. However I did not respond & when dropping car off at appointment time, appointment wasn't a confirmed appointment. Please just follow text instructions or your appointment will not be confirmed. They did accept my car & said they would get it done. Picked car up at 4:45, thankful for the oil change.”

“I too, must leave a review because BETH saved our vacation! We rolled in with a bad alternator and waited for the 7 a.m. open when Beth not only helped me find the part but added I'd need to charge my battery and handled that for me and lent me a few needed tools while I removed the core. Waldo stopped by time-to-time just to see how things were going and share Chevy van stories. Extraction complete, we walked to Circle K and waited for our 2 p.m. alternator arrival which was perfectly on time. It took just minutes to install, and by 2:30ish we were able to continue our vacation. THANK YOU BETH, WALDO! Along with the unnamed kind strangers who gave us a jump up at Robbie's Marina. Everyone, for that matter, at Advance seemed helpful and friendly, and that comes from quality people as well as management from above. There's hope for humanity! : )”
