Opening soon

All your automotive needs under one roof.

Five kinds of work, one family-run shop. Here is what each one means in everyday terms — and when it is worth giving us a call.

Diagnostics

Modern vehicles can show the same symptom for a dozen different reasons. Accurate diagnosis means testing until we know the actual cause — so the repair fixes the problem the first time and you don't pay for parts the car never needed.

What it covers

  • Warning lights, including the check engine light
  • Running problems: rough idle, hesitation, stalling, hard starts
  • Noises, vibrations, smells and leaks
  • A clear explanation of what we found before repairs are discussed

Signs it's time to call

  • A warning light came on and stayed on
  • The car drives differently than it used to
  • Another shop replaced a part and the problem is still there
  • Something just feels off and you want to know why

General maintenance

Routine maintenance is the cheapest repair there is. Keeping up with the care your vehicle's maintenance schedule calls for helps prevent breakdowns and catches small problems before they turn into big ones.

What it covers

  • Scheduled upkeep based on your vehicle and how you drive it
  • Inspections that flag wear before it becomes a failure
  • Advice on what is due now and what can wait
  • Ask about a specific maintenance item when you call

Signs it's time to call

  • You are due, or overdue, for scheduled service
  • You just bought a used vehicle and want a baseline
  • A long drive or a busy season is coming up
  • You are not sure what your car actually needs

Electrical work

Today's cars run on electricity as much as fuel. Electrical problems can be intermittent and frustrating; finding them takes patience and methodical testing rather than swapping parts until something works.

What it covers

  • Starting and charging problems
  • Batteries that keep going flat
  • Lights, power accessories and gauges that act up
  • Wiring and connection faults

Signs it's time to call

  • The car is slow to crank or will not start
  • You have replaced the battery and it is still dying
  • Lights flicker or something works only some of the time
  • A fuse keeps blowing

Air conditioning & heating

Florida heat makes a working A/C more than a comfort — and a heater and defroster matter on cool, foggy mornings too. We find out why your system isn't keeping up before recommending a repair.

What it covers

  • A/C that blows warm or only cools some of the time
  • Heater and defroster problems
  • Blower fans and climate controls that act up
  • Finding the cause before parts are replaced

Signs it's time to call

  • The A/C blows warm air
  • Airflow is weak, or only works on some fan speeds
  • You notice a musty smell or water inside the car
  • The windshield won't clear

Comprehensive service

Beyond the categories above, A Plus Auto offers comprehensive automotive service — the goal is that you can bring most of what your car needs to one place you trust. Because every job is different, specific repairs and performance-related work are confirmed by phone.

What it covers

  • General mechanical repair, confirmed case by case
  • Performance-related work — call to discuss what you have in mind
  • Second opinions on another shop's recommended repair
  • Help deciding what to fix now and what can wait

Signs it's time to call

  • You need a repair not listed here
  • You have been quoted for work and want another look
  • You would rather deal with one shop for everything
  • You simply have a question

Not sure which one you need?

That's normal. Tell us what the vehicle is doing and we'll point you in the right direction.
