A&D was excellent service!! I walked in and they immediately helped me out and found the issue. They were kind and knowledgeable about my car and got me in and out in 10 minutes with no issues. Highly recommend coming to A&D!

Tony, David, and Andrew are incredible! A&D Automotive is by far the most honest and fair mechanic in Tampa, hands down. I can't recommend them enough.

David was very helpful, got my transmission fluid done 5 hours ahead of schedule and replaced my key fob battery free of charge. Patrick got me in and out of there in no time. I’ve been coming here for 10 years no reason to go any place else.

I brought my car to A&D after I saw many recommendations on the UTampa parents page. They could not be nicer and more honest - they had originally told me that she needed brake pads, rotors, and a caliper and then tried to get me a better price on the caliper. Then, after doing the brakes called me back and said the pin on the calipers is fine and there’s no need for me to have a new caliper put in and add the expense. They were so honest I was so appreciative. Highly recommend.

On a Sunday the cooling fan in my Trax decided it was going to no longer turn off which led to a dead battery (twice) and days of me popping the hood to unplug the fan when parked to prevent another stranded situation. I went to A & D for a second opinion after replacing the battery didn’t solve the problem and another shop quoted me a hefty price to replace the fan. In less than fifteen minutes David figured out what was wrong with my car and switched out the faulty fuse. So grateful for him. Awesome, knowledgeable staff. If your car has an issue, this is the place to go! Thanks David.

I’ve taken my car to A&D a few times now, and every experience has been excellent. They’re honest and never try to sell you things you don’t need, they genuinely care about your money. Recently, I brought my car in for an electrical issue, and when they couldn’t find anything wrong, they didn’t charge me at all. The staff is friendly, professional, and truly cares about their customers. Great people and service. They’re also fast and efficient, I’d definitely recommend them.

For reference I am one of those people worried an auto shop will try to screw me. Long story short, I was in a situation where any other auto shop could have lied and charged me for labor and parts but in my case, the broz were like “hey, honestly my guy was in your car for less than 5 minutes, needed no parts he just plugged something in that was loose, so you’re good, no charge.” I tried to buy the counter guy Subway but he politely refused but said google reviews are ok. I’m sending all my peoples to this place, money is tight right now so much appreciated broz 🤝 faith in humanity restored

My car broke down 2 days before Christmas, and I had my car towed to A&D based off of good reviews from friends. I had low hopes of my car getting looked at until after the holiday, but they were able to squeeze my car in and get me some answers before they were closing for the holiday. They answered all of my questions with patience and understanding. I felt like they were only ever truthful with me, and it did not feel like they were just trying to have me put more unnecessary money into fixing my vehicle. I would highly recommend A&D to anyone and will personally use them in the future if needed. David, specifically, was very helpful in this process as he provided excellent customer service.

Andrew and Gary were great! They got me in and out with a walk in oil change, they were kind and professional. They recommended my filters be changed, and got it taken care of at a great price. Highly recommend for all your car needs without hassling and suggesting unnecessary work when it’s not needed. Give them a call!

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at this shop! The team took great care of my car from start to finish, and I could really tell they take pride in their work. Everything was handled professionally, and my car runs perfectly now. I’ll definitely be coming back here every single time I need any repairs or maintenance. Highly recommend!

I’m extremely impressed with the service I received. Tony, Andrew, David and staff went above and beyond from the moment I walked in. They were transparent, professional, and took the time to explain everything in detail so I felt confident in the work being done on my car. The service was fast, the pricing was fair, and the entire experience was truly outstanding. It’s rare to find an automotive center with this level of integrity and care. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending them to everyone!

As the parent of a student at the University of Tampa, who is over 1000 miles away from her kid, this place came highly recommended by other UT parents, and now I know why! My son’s car had a very unsafe tire issue late at night and when I called A & D in the early morning well before they were due to open, I was greeted by an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable guy, David. That was the beginning of excellent and honest customer service! We will definitely be returning when we need auto care! HIGHLY recommend.

A & D Automotive is truly the best! Huge shoutout to Andrew for his outstanding customer service, Sebastian for quickly fixing my tire that had a nail, and owner Tony for running such an honest and professional shop. As the daughter of a mechanic, I know firsthand the hard work and dedication it takes in this industry, and this team goes above and beyond. Hands down the most professional and trustworthy group I’ve met in this town. Highly recommend!

The Saga of the Rattle 8-9 months ago the rattle begin intermittently causing audible distress. 2 separation inspections at outside mechanics, a few hundred later each time replacing something under the hood but I kept saying I don’t think it’s under the hood. I ended up at A&D after the dealership wanted thousands just to inspect it. David was our Mr. Fixit, the guy who didn’t give up nor charge me thousands! His comprehensive inspection, recurring road testing, and previous experience led to a proper diagnosis of a faulty electric power steering component. The rattle did exist, was indeed inside the cab of vehicle, visibly broken and after David’s magic touch it is once again a quiet ride! I drove home in silence full of gratitude for a local business who from start to finish provided excellent service, communication and even a little moral support validating the interior cab rattle. I wouldn’t want Tony or Andrew to be sad I didn’t shout them out too but David definitely did the magic in this FL heat! Thank you for the fairly priced repair and speedy turnaround time A&D.

I have a convertible, and when trying to fix my headliner the top got stuck halfway in the air. I took it to the shop and crossed paths with Tony. He took a quick look at my car (me thinking it was going to cost hundreds to fix) and knew what to do right away. With the most simple adjustment the sensors worked and my car was fixed!! Tony was so kind as to point me in the direction to fix my headliner as well. The team here is very caring helpful and knowledgeable! I would recommend to any of my friends!

Sebastian, Andrew, and Gary were quick and attentive with helping me out. I called in advance while they were busy to see if there’s availability for an engine/cabin air filter replacement. I was advised a 1hr wait due to the customers ahead of me. I got there and within 15 minutes they were able to attend to matters regardless of how busy they were and get me in and out quickly. Without that many questions, Andrew walked out to my car and started working on it immediately. I usually don’t go to independently owned shops for Auto Service from previous experience. But this one exceeded my expectations. Will definitely be back!

I had another excellent experience with A&D. They quickly diagnosed and corrected an issue that was caused by another shop (Pep Boys) and ultimately A&D saved me a significant amount of money. Their team was timely, professional, and transparent throughout the entire process. It’s refreshing to work with a shop that is honest and truly focused on doing the right thing for the customer and our vehicles. I can’t recommend David and Anthony enough and will absolutely only use them for future services.
