            Hi! My name is Kay Brend and my husband Mike and I own Auto Plus, Inc. I would like to take this opportunity to personally invite you to stop in and give us a try. We have been growing like crazy lately, and want you to experience what it’s like to enjoy automotive service like no other. We have been the owner of Auto Plus for 17 years now, and have been working to create an automotive repair facility that stands miles above the rest. I’m pleased to say that I believe we are well on our way to achieving that goal.

 

Auto Plus started off as a small general repair shop in 1990. Seventeen years later (That’s right! We’re celebrating our 17 Year Anniversary!), we have a 5,000 square foot building and have 12,826 satisfied clients. We have a policy of ‘non discrimination’ and service domestic and foreign vehicles with the same care and confidence that people have come to expect of our service.

 

 

But don’t take my word for it, listen to what a few of our clients have to say...

Excellent service - the best from an auto repair establishment that I've ever experienced! Kathleen Tucker, Carol Stream

As I was leaving my future maintenance schedule was printed out and explained to me. Also, receiving a phone call to make sure my car was working properly was great! I was as impressed as I was told I would be.
Jackelyn Oviedo, Elmhurst

My husband and I have had our cars serviced and repaired at Auto Plus for several years. I have always left feeling that I was treated honestly and fairly. It's comforting to trust that any repairs are necessary and will be repaired properly. I am always greeted by the friendly staff.
Beth Joens, Lombard

You are thorough in inspecting my car and advise me what needs to be done immediately and in the near future. I appreciate the helpfulness and honesty.
Kathy Wilson, Lyons

I value not having to worry about my car not working properly thanks to your company and its reliability. You honestly care about your customers. I feel a sense of relief that I have found a great company that I trust with my car. You guys are awesome!
Brenda Ferreri, Naperville
                                               

Here are just some of the benefits of doing business with us: 

ü    Check Us Out BEFORE You Make an Appointment 

I’m a woman and I work in the auto repair field and even I sometimes get intimated by this stuff. I can get over my head with all the “tech talk.”  I want to understand what’s broken, why it needs to be fixed and is my car safe for my children. That’s what I need to know. I expect someone to take the time to talk to me in plain English and like I have a brain…because I do! I highly encourage you to check out our website www.autoplusinc.com or call our Free Consumer Helpline at 888-339-9682. Our website will give you more information about who we are and what you can expect. The Free Consumer Helpline is something I put together (yes, that’s me on it!) to educate consumers about the auto repair industry.

 

ü      Free Safety Inspection

Each and every time your vehicle comes in for service our qualified technicians will give it a complimentary 68 point maintenance inspection. Our service writer will then go over every detail of the inspection with you so you understand what was found, what may need to be done, when it needs to be done and why, and how much it will cost.

 

ü      Open Door Policy

Sometimes the best way to understand what we are talking about when it comes to auto repair is to actually “see” what we are talking about. If at anytime you don’t totally understand what our service writer is telling you, ask him if it’s possible to show it to you. That’s absolutely no problem. In fact, feel free to just stop by our shop at anytime to check us out. We’d be happy to give you a tour.

 

ü      Warranty

Every repair we do comes with a 12 months/12,000 mile warranty. That’s pretty much an industry standard. However, we’re not your standard auto repair shop.

 

ü      Million Mile Warranty

We are proud to offer a Million Mile Warranty! The unique Million Mile Warranty is part of a special Car Care Club Membership. This membership includes over $300.00 in savings and the Million Mile Warranty! Ask us about it when you come in. We’d be happy to tell you more about it.

 

ü      Guarantee

If you are not completely satisfied with our service, we’ll give you your money back. That’s it! That simple.

 

ü      Convenience

 I understand how busy life is with children, work, activities, etc. Who has time to get the car in for service? It’s another scheduling problem you have to tackle. I get it! I’ve got 2 kids of my own that I’m constantly running around with. That’s why we offer several things to meet your busy schedule. We have 4 scheduled “waiter” oil change appointment every day. This way you can book an appointment after the kids go to school and read our magazines or use the internet and enjoy our refreshments while we perform an oil change and complete maintenance inspection on your vehicle while you relax in our clean and organized waiting area.

 

 

ü      Don’t have time to Wait?

That’s not a problem. We would be happy to drive you home or to work. We can do the work while you get on with your life. Once the car is completed, we’ll gladly pick you up.

 

ü      Want an Estimate?

Of course, you should want and get an estimate. We would never do any repairs to your car without your approval. I suggest that even if you don’t do business with us that you always get an estimate prior to any work being done. Our service writer will call you and tell you what was found during the complimentary inspection on your car, why it’s broken, when it will be ready and how much it will cost. He can even send you an email estimate! (Barring any internet glitches!) This way you can see the parts, the labor, and final costs.  We will keep you informed throughout the entire process.

 

Here is what you get with my $9.97 oil change offer…

 

 

            Of course, I hope that you’ll give us a chance to work on your vehicle if and when it needs service. If you choose to put your trust in my company and service your vehicle I’ll guarantee to:

SAVE YOU TIME AND MONEY
