Times Change!

Times change, people change and the world changes. Having been in business since 1984, One Stop Automotive has shown that it too can change. In 2005 the business was purchased by Randall Miller, who has grown the business over the 18 years he has been at the helm, while at the same time creating a very loyal following.  Although it has been a very difficult decision, Randall has decided that its time to pass the mantle to a new owner so he can retire and enjoy some travel. Randall has proven himself to be a wonderful and very engaging business owner and member of this community, and has served us well.

Having Technician Recommended Services Performed Is Vitally Important To The Health Of Your Vehicle!

We have many very long term customers as well as new ones. Over the course of our years in this business we have noticed that people understandably do not like to spend money on automotive repairs. Who would? The problem with this can be multifaceted. A small repair, if not addressed in a timely manner, can blossom into a very expensive repair. We had a customer in the shop yesterday for an inspection. We found that all of his engine and transmission mounts are broken, needing replacement.

In addition, the broken mounts are causing major stress on the axles due to the engine and transmission sagging.  Its crazy the way little things can snowball into such major things. This why we always try to kee ... read more

Why Do It Yourself Repairs Are Not Always The Best or Least Expensive Way To Go

Why Do It Yourself Repairs Are Not Always The Best or Least Expensive Way To Go

"Do it yourself repairs" are not always the best or least expensive way to go. Many customers have had to tow their vehicles into our shop because they had a well meaning friend or family member attempt to fix their vehicle, or even tried to fix it themselves because their uncle, dad or brother used to be a mechanic. The problems with this can include fried computers, non functional brakes when you need them most, overheating and seized engine due to blown head gaskets or blown seals in general causing loss of coolant or oil.  Thermostats installed backwards, brake calipers installed upside down causing kinked brake lines, random wires spliced together, washer fluid added to engine coolant, brake pads installed backwards, power steering fluid added to brake fluid or engine oil. These mistakes can be very costly, yet easily avoided by bringing your vehicle to us.  One Stop Automotive has resolved many issues that customers thought would be very expensive, yet in f ... read more
