There seems to be a common misconception among many that if you have an aftermarket/extended warranty, that your car, truck, SUV, or Jeep must be taken to a dealership. This is not true. Non-dealership / Independent Automotive repair shops can service and repair your new or UNDER WARRANTY/EXTENDED WARRANTY. As a positive, at our shop, you can get fast service and work with highly trained technicians!  We'd love to take care of your vehicle for you and can do so right here at our automotive shop. Repairs by highly rated and trained automotive technicians with dealer rated diagnostic tools, at BETTER PRICING by a shop that knows you!

It is a law that independent automotive repair shops can maintain and service your warranty. All consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which is enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). It prohibits a manufacturer from voiding the new vehicle's warranty or a vehicle's extended warranty because service was performed by a Non-Dealer/Independent Repair shop.

Per the FTC, “It's illegal for a dealer to deny your warranty coverage simply because you had warranty work or routine maintenance or repairs performed by our automotive shop. Routine maintenance can include anything from oil changes, tire rotations and belt replacement, to fluid checks, flushes, new brake pads, and inspections.” It is also important to note that the “Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act makes it illegal for a company to void your warranty or deny coverage under the warranty for the simple cause that you used an aftermarket or recycled part.”

One of the major perks of bringing your vehicle to an independent repair shop is the ability to make your money go further. Many times, warranties will have a limit or a deductible. Our goal is to make your warranty work for you.

Lastly, If you are on the fence about whether or not to purchase an AFTERMARKET or EXTENDED warranty. We suggest opening a savings account for your car and putting back money for possible breakdowns. While warranties are great the limitations can sometimes outweigh the benefits.

Whichever option you may choose we will be there for you every step of the way! We look forward to taking care of your new or under extended/aftermarket warranty, car, truck, SUV, or Jeep right here. Give us a call today!

When you find a car replace like this you really don't want them to get too busy, but Greg and the guys have been trusted with our vehicles for so many years we don't want to leave the area when we retire. Robert Ulrich

If you are interested in finding a mechanic versus the typical dealership type repair program - Steve's is the best ~~> never any regrets.  Jerry Backus, 5 Star Review Birdseye

These guys totally deserve the 5 star rating they are maintaining. Always open and honest communication. I always know what to expect when dealing with anyone at the shop.  T Long, Birdeye Review

I have used Steve's Auto for all my cars for 20+ years. Greg and his crew are the best and the most honest mechanics you can find. Just like my Great Uncle Ernest who ran his own shop for 45 years in Baltimore!  -  David Millard

I've had the chance to take both my truck and Cris' car in for repairs at Steve's Automotive Center near our house. I've been super impressed with both their quality of work and prices. I would highly recommend them and am thankful to have a mechanic that I can trust. - Marc Hunt of Atlanta GA

I have been taking cars to Steve's (now run by Greg his son) for at least 20 years. He has worked on my Land cruiser, my ES and GS Lexus sedans, my daughters Honda, and now my wife's new Honda and now my new Prius. With Steve (and Greg's help) I got 200,000 miles on all of our cars with no reliability issues and at a very good cost. He has help me provide my family with reliable transportation at a fraction of what a dealer cost and with quality that a no dealer and no franchise (Pep,,,, or Good... or Fire.. or Nation.. you name it) could provide.  It really is hard to express the value you get from Greg and his staff but the most significant thing I can say is that you will not get a more honest hard working talented shop that strives to meet your needs. If you are just trying to keep the car running for another year, or if like me you seek reliability, Greg will guide you through the best most economical and effective path possible.  If you don't know much about cars and need to be treated fairly and save money you can not find a better shop. Cars are an essential part of our life in Atlanta and a shop like Steve's is an essential part of keeping a car running and saving money doing it. - Ed Soniat

Greg and his team are the most competent and honest guys I have ever met when it comes to the needs of my family's small fleet of vehicles. Steve's has seen us through a couple sets of cars now, and has saved me thousands easily by telling me that what I thought I needed was fixed by something far more simple and cheap. Highly recommend!  Connie St John
