Who We Are
Our Story
Growing up, my brother and I didn’t have much—not when it came to money, or working vehicles for that matter. Most of the time, our driveway looked more like a makeshift junkyard than a place where people parked reliable transportation. We had more cars sitting than running, and that wasn’t just an inconvenience—it was a way of life. It taught us something early: when one thing breaks, you'd better have a backup, because two is one and one is none. That phrase—usually used in survival circles—wasn't just a saying for us. It was our day-to-day reality.
We learned resourcefulness out of necessity. If something broke down—and it often did—there wasn’t a mechanic coming to the rescue. There wasn’t extra money for diagnostics or labor charges. So we watched, we listened, and eventually, we learned. We started with the small stuff: belts, fluids, brakes. And then it became more—starters, axles, even full-on engine swaps. We made mistakes, sure, but we didn’t stop until the engines roared back to life.
But what really lit the fire was watching our parents get taken advantage of time and time again. We’d watch them hand over money they didn’t have for repairs they didn’t understand—and sometimes, for work that never even got done right. It was frustrating. It was heartbreaking. And it made us angry.
So we decided to do something about it.
We rolled up our sleeves and said, “Enough.” Enough watching good people get hustled. Enough shops talking down to folks who just wanted their car to run without breaking the bank. We didn’t want to just fix cars—we wanted to change the whole experience.
That’s how The Car Clinic was born.
From the beginning, our mission has been simple: treat people right, fix it the way it should’ve been fixed the first time, and never talk over anyone’s head. We know what it feels like to be in the dark, unsure if you’re being told the truth. That’s why transparency, honesty, and respect are baked into every bolt we tighten and every phone call we make.
We’re not just a business. We’re two brothers who remember where we came from—and we built this shop for people just like our family. When you walk into The Car Clinic, you're not just a customer. You’re part of a community we’re proud to serve, one honest repair at a time.
