Jim is Awesome! I showed up on a Friday morning looking to give my Ram 1500 V8 the roar it deserved. Jim was not only the Professional I was looking for but he made me feel at home and had great conversation. His service was fast and the quality is unmatched. Thank you, Jim! I appreciate you and your time!

Today wasn't my first visit at Powerhouse; yet today was so unexpected regarding my car breaking down. However Phil helped me again keeping my car running. This is the best shop in town regarding professionalism, service and reasonable prices. I don't right reviews that often . I recommend this shop to anyone who is looking or needs a good reliable shop to take their vehicle. This review I felt lead to do because fixing my car allows me to get to work . Thanks Powerhouse

I had a wonderful experience at Powerhouse Automotive. Being a young college student, going anywhere to get my car worked on is scary because I don t know much and my parents are far away. Phil was so kind and informative, and made this such an easy process. If anything were to happen to my car again, I would definitely be coming back to Powerhouse!

Jim, Phil and the rest of their team are incredible. It s hard to find an honest repair shop these days, and these guys are as transparent as it gets. They helped me identify the issues with my 2018 Sierra, and had it all fixed in an efficient manner. I would highly recommend Powerhouse to anyone and everyone for their vehicle maintenance needs.

Powerhouse gave an awesome experience with my car maintenance! They were super efficient and informative to me in the whole process and just overall really nice people. Phil made me extremely comfortable with having my car there. I will definitely go back for routine maintenance and highly recommend it to anyone.

Great service! I called in the morning and Phil said they could take me right away. They immediately put my car on the lift and all services were complete by the end of the day. Great communication and pricing.

I'm a student from out of town and I needed my brakes changed. This was my first auto repair shop experience in Tallahassee and I can say that I will 100% be back at Powerhouse if I ever require other repairs. The manager/owner Phil is a great dude and really makes you feel taken care of. They treat students very well and also offer a great warranty on their work. If you are in search of a quality auto shop I definitely recommend taking your business to Powerhouse.

Thank you to Powerhouse Auto for the excellent care recently. We broke down at the top level of TMH. Phil the supervisor, sent his mechanic all the way to the top to assure that we got out. With us living in Perry, it was difficult to get back and forth quickly. Phil kept our car safe and secure until we could retrieve it staying late to meet us. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! I would recommend Powerhouse Auto to everyone as they are top notch!

Brought my 04 Kia amanti here after going to multiple pull up mechanics and corporate shops. The manager Phil was very personable and gave me the best advice on how to handle my car. Got it back and now it s sounding better than it has in the past 3

I highly recommend Powerhouse Auto. I ve had many bad experiences with other shops in Tallahassee but Phil was very kind and helpful. He was able to fix my muffler issues and even offered me a student discount. I left very happy with the service, atmosphere, and price offered to me and I know I ve found a place that I can trust with my car.

I bring me all my 7 of my cars here for any and everything! Powerhouse is the best mechanic shop in town. Phil the manager is the coolest guy ever and whatever you need he got you. They also gave me free carwashes and a few discounts. All the employees there have great customer service and work in a timely manner. They get the job done. Never an issue. Thanks Phil and Jim for everything

Needed my brakes changed. As a young woman, I always feel intimidated going to mechanics or repair shops but Phil was extremely polite and so were the other staff. They explained everything to me in a manner that made sense and provided outstanding hospitality. They were able to move efficiently and most importantly, they fixed my brakes! Car is running smoother than ever. Very friendly, very professional. Definitely going again for any car services. Phil also gave me a discount for being a nurse and student ;) thanks!!

The owner gives discounts to students and the Military, & they also warranty their work for 2 years!!I spoke to Mr. Phil in the office, & he is very likable, nice, plus very easy to talk to. He makes you feel like a friend.Multiple family members had recommended Powerhouse to me, and even the AAA tow truck driver recommended I call them.Here is the best part:I was given an initial quote and I told them to go ahead and fix it because I needed my car back asap to drop off and pick up my little ones from school. Just 2 days later Mr. Phil called me to say my car was ready, plus once they had started working on it they noticed the problem was something else, so they went ahead and fixed it, plus my bill was more than $500 cheaper than the initial quote!Thank you Mr. Phil for being so kind and understanding. The mechanics that I met while there were super nice as well.I am more than grateful for their hard work and honesty.As a woman who doesn't know how to fix my own car, I rely on others to not take advantage of me by overcharging. Powerhouse proved they are honest and reliable.In the week that I've had my car back, it is driving better than it ever has.Thank you Powerhouse. You have another customer for life.

Powerhouse Auto Repair is a veteran owned business and the General Manager/owner is a great person! He respects and connects with each customer on top of providing quick, but thorough and honest work. I have been looking for an auto shop in town that I feel like I could trust. After getting my car back this morning and the service Phil and his team provided, I'm confident they are the one! Thank you, truly appreciate all your help.

I worked at Ford Motor in Powertrain product development. Powerhouse has exceptional automotive knowledge and efficiency. Phil always provides me with choices and the mechanic's diagnostic. They take care to do the job right and are transparent on pricing. This is the best auto shop and bang for your buck in Tally.

My RAM 1500 broke down 15 miles from Tallahassee. I was stranded so I called powerhouse and they recommended a towing service. After my RAM was towed there and it was determined that the water pump had went out. Powerhouse automotive put me in front of 28 cars that they had there in order to get me back on the highway. They are a little pricey but the work was very professional. They had a wonderful place for me and my mother to rest and watch TV while they repaired my vehicle. 5 hours later I was back on the road headed to Jacksonville. I do recommend this place because of the quality and professionalism that day. As I mentioned earlier they were a tad pricing but it's worth paying the extra price to have something done right the first time.

Always a pleasure with Phil and his guys. Dropped my car off at 11 and got it back by 4. They get the job done the right way and for a fair price. I bring my car here every time I have an issue.

Just wow!! My car standard broke down to the point it couldn't drive. I'm new to tallahassee and didn't know where to take my car to get fixed without getting scammed. So I started calling around for the lowest price. When I called power house I let Phil know this and he said to let him be the last one that I called and he would beat the others prices. And man he wasn't wrong. It took a minute bc there was a lot wrong with my car but Taylor did a great job!! It hasn't sounded this good since we bought it back in 2013. But I got a student discount and then another small discount since a part didn't come in on time so we had to wait a little longer. I will be telling all of my friends and family about this place and I will be a returning customer.Oh and another thing that was amazing is the Phil explained everything that was wrong with it and didn't make me feel stupid for not knowing what he was talking about. So that is a big plus!!!

Excellent job on my truck. It was making a noise and Powerhouse figured it out and fixed it quickly. Even with ordering parts they had it done the next day. They were able to have it ready with an alignment done too all before my spouse had to go out of town. Everyone was genuinely nice that I encountered. I will take my cars back here for any future repairs needed.

Title: Powerhouse Auto Repair: Your One-Stop Shop for Excellent ServiceI can confidently say that Powerhouse Auto Repair is the best auto shop in Tallahassee. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the friendly and knowledgeable staff. Their commitment to providing exceptional service is evident in every aspect of their operation.One of the standout qualities of Powerhouse Auto is their ability to handle any automotive issue, making it a true one-stop shop for repair needs. Whether it's engine troubles, electrical problems, or anything else that needs attention, their team of skilled mechanics works seamlessly together to get the job done right.During my visit, I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, and it was clear to me that he leads by example. His dedication and strong work ethic were truly impressive. It's not every day you encounter an owner who is just as involved in the day-to-day operations as the mechanics.However, I must give a special mention to Phil, the General Manager, for his outstanding customer service. Phil's big personality and passion for taking care of his customers are commendable. He went above and beyond to keep me informed about the repairs, explaining any additional issues without pressuring me to purchase unnecessary services. It truly felt like being part of the Powerhouse Auto family.One aspect that impressed me was how Powerhouse Auto Repair offers student discounts. I wish I had known about them when I was still in school! They understand the financial challenges students face and provide a helping hand by offering affordable pricing.The only small downside is that Powerhouse Auto Repair doesn't handle tire services. However, the range of services they do provide more than makes up for it. From routine maintenance to complex repairs, they have you covered.If you're in Tallahassee and need top-notch auto repair services, I highly recommend Powerhouse Auto Repair. They go beyond what you'd expect from an auto shop, consistently providing excellent service, knowledge, and a friendly atmosphere. Shout out to Phil and the rest of the Powerhouse family for treating me like one of their own.You won't be disappointed with your experience at Powerhouse Auto RepairT. White.

Very personable staff who are competent and work quickly. Phil at the reception desk is attentive, and my truck was fixed fast. Add a two year warranty and this shop is now the only one in town that I recommend

Well where do I start? Phil and Jim answered all our questions . They were professional and helpful ! As women my sister and I usually are treated less than respectful. Here we felt heard and taken care of like family! Our Mustang was fixed in the time they said too!! They will certainly get our business again!

Had an emergency with our car a day before the semester started, showed up to Powerhouse as soon as they opened. And they took care of everything and fixed my car SAME DAY! The General Manager Phil was amazing, he took care of me and handled everything very profesionally. He even gave me a student discount and gave me a fair price for the emergency fix. If you are in need for a repair shop that does good work and fast repair, definately visit Powerhouse. Ask for Phil and he will take care of all your needs!!

DO NOT FALL FOR THE STUDENT DISCOUNT!The first time I went for an oil change, they were nice with a good service and gave me a discount. However, the second time I went was because of my engine light coming up which the computer in my car had marked as 2 thermostat errors. When I came in I explained this as well as some noises that it was making. I had to bring my car in twice due to the same problem where they did unnecessary work which cost me almost a grand. I tried letting them know that it was the same problem that had came up as before since the computer errors were the same as well as the noises and problems I was having with my car; but they claimed that it was a different problem than when I brought it in at first. After this, the car was still giving me the same problem and errors; therefore, I took him to another mechanic who explained that the problem was the thermostat and fixed it; my car hasn't given me a problem since. Overall, I had to pay about $1500 for a problem that could've been fixed for less than 1/3 of that. On top of that, when I looked at the box, they seemed to have broke it open, leaving the box with the cables half-opened and unprotected. Though they have good customer service, my rating is a 1 star because I was scammed out of a grand for a problem that was 1) pretty straight forward and not that expensive, and 2) wasn't fixed by them.

Excellent experience, I was a bit skeptical at first because of the notoriousness of auto repair shops scamming people, but Powerhouse Auto Repair was super up front, quick, and lovely to deal with. I even dumped my car on them at 8:00 Monday morning without any warning and they replaced the starter on the same day. Incredible work, good pricing. Appreciate it!

The Powerhouse is amazing, definitely recommending to all my family and friends. I will be a return customer for life! They get the job done right and in a timely matter with reasonable prices. They also have a comfy, clean waiting room with a big screen TV. I got my spark plugs done here and my car drives like new again. Phil, the general manager is very professional, welcoming and has a great personality. He treats you like family and when he tells you he ll take care of you here, he really means it. We really appreciate your hard work, powerhouse team! Thanks again, Phil! Couldn t have had the excellent experience without you.

I called Powerhouse at 330 pm the Tuesday before Christmas weekend due to having sudden break issues on my car. I was going out of town on Thursday and needed my car fixed asap! I called the dealer and they were booked until January. I looked online and found Powerhouse who was a few miles from my work. Their reviews were amazing. I called hoping they could help and spoke with Phil. I explained my dilemma and was told to drop my car off and he would take care of it the next day. True to his word my car was fixed the following afternoon. Phil was honest, friendly and most importantly he took care of me and got me on the road for my trip. I highly recommend using Powerhouse!
