I've been there several times over abt. 35 or more yrs. Maybe more for AirConcitioner Repair at 1st when & I had an old truck that would require a Session at Fountain's at least one-two times a yr. He kept Nursing it along until I finally got Rid of It & got something Newer. Then 2-3 of the Newer Vehicles I carried to Them for Auto Repair Issues. They were always Kind, Considerate & very Good to me on Prices for different things that came up. I never had a single thing they did not fix on the 1st time I brought it to them. Kind, Courteous, Prompt, Quick & Really Reasonable on prices. I have Zero Complaints & would give them 10 stars if that was a choice above. read more

While passing through Tallahassee on a road trip, I had a caliper seize up on my car in the late afternoon. I called Fountain's Auto and after explaining the situation, they ordered the appropriate parts and said to bring it in as soon as possible. Within a couple of hours, I was back on the road at a much lower repair price than I was expecting. This is a knowledgeable and honest shop and highly recommend the folks here. read more

Fountain's Auto Repair is busy fora very good reason. All my dash brake lights came on at the same time. My regular mechanic recommended a brake shop to my husband as everything is computerized. Fortunately,I missed the memo. I went to Fountain's for an oil change hoping that would cancel the dash lights. It didn't. I booked an appointment with the auto repair shop behind the oil change. My fear was a $2000 computer sensor. My final bill was $267. These folks are not only methodical. They are really smart, from Shannon, who "answers the phone" to the mechanics I never saw. They spent a about 5 hours in labor fixing my car. Not only did they fix my dash lights, they repaired my rear brakes lights which I did't even know were out. Fountain's fixed my car for a fraction of what I could have paid. They are smart, honest and kind. And they are really really honest. Get in line. read more

My friend's car had been there for 5+ days with no updates on their car. Had said they were "working on it" but when asked why it's been taking so long they said it's because no one has gotten to it yet. They have poor communication, I would not recommend read more

As always, I love going here for whatever i have going on with my car. Last year I was new to college and was having a lot of car issues and they not only took care of the car but also always made sure i knew what I was getting, how much it would be, etc etc. I recommend them to all of my friends as no one else would ever compare! read more

Six months after it was repaired my 1996 Saturn's air conditioning system needed additional repair. I was giving my business to another place (for both repairs) and after a few days I received a call telling me it was ready. My husband tuned up my car a couple of days later and saw that neither the air conditioner caps or the hose had been replaced and refrigerant was leaking. I had been doing business with the other place and felt that it was careless in not checking those parts when it did the repair. I was in no mood to leave the car overnight as currently we did not have another vehicle available to use. Several people who work with my husband recommend Fountains. My husband called and was able to get an appointment the next day and was told that it would take half a day. Fountains has several mechanics (unlike the other place) and got right on it. By early afternoon that day we received the call that it was ready. I would more than recommend Fountains - the parts were replaced and it gave us a couple of extra caps! An additional plus - Fountains dropped my husband home after he left the car and picked me up to get it. How many places do that? read more

I was aware of an oil pan gasket leak and bad front left cv joint on my car, so I took it to this place to have them look at it and give me an estimate to fix those items. Guy calls me back and tells me its going to be x amount for the gasket, then he tells me its going to cost x amount for the oil change. To open the oil pan you must drain the oil. So they want to charge me again for labor to do what they need to do to put a gasket on the oil pan. So the guy hems and haws and agrees and says he'll only charge me for the oil and the filter. Okay. Then he tells me there's an additional charge for the inspection of a half hour mechanics charge. At that point I knew something was up so I went to the shop and paid them the money for the "inspection." They didn't want to give me the readout of the things the guy found, the readout I just paid for. Finally he just gave me the sheet the mechanic wrote stuff on and I took it and left. Avoid fountain auto repair like the plague. read more

This place is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I'm from down down state by west palm and my brakes failed around gainesville while driving up to Tallahassse late in a Friday night. I called around Saturday morning and this business is not only the only one willing to help but they worked on it all weekend and even drove to another city for parts on a Sunday. THEN the price was so fair I asked for more work on the vehicle and they didn't all perfectly and delivered it back to me on time. J or maybe Jay there was so good to work with and so honest I was very Impressed. He showed me all the bad parts and explained what he could do to repair it quickly. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants competence and honestly which is hard to find both these days. I told my daughter who lives there to always take her car there from now on . I want to personally thank Fountain on here again and so much appreciate what you did for us. Shows how much you care about the public. Hats off to you and your team Thank you !!! read more

I have used Fountain's a few times over the years and they have always been good to work with. I have had oil changes and probably more frequently bought propane from them. My last trip was pretty much at closing time and they were quick to help with filling our tank. All the employees there were friendly and I couldn't ask for better service. read more

There cars have high miles and are ready for the junk yard. They are over priced cars, trucks with over 250k miles and asking for $15k to $20k. Just go to a real auto store like car max or you local dealership this place is a rip off. read more

Honest, problem-solving, genuine, and hassle-free communication. Highly recommend, this is a straight forward business with experienced technicians. '99 LX470 needed a rear brake job and health check on the entire brake system - I received a detailed report on the entire brake system, recommendations based on the technician's observations, and also received multiple verbal updates that impacted decisions and timelines for finishing the work. These gals and guys are worth their salt, we will return without hesitation. read more

My drive's side window broke, and not being from Tallahassee, a friend recommended Fountain's. Having out of state plates , I was worried I might get taken. No,no no! These people are fantastic. It ended up that it was just a bolt, rather than the whole regulator. So it cost less than half the quote and it was done within an hour. This is a shop with customer service as their main objective, and they excel. (Not to mention the sweet dog who greets you)! Awesome place! read more

Happy! Happy! Happy! I took my beloved 1999 Cougar in yesterday because the brake lights were broken. So they fixed that. But their fix just HAPPENED to also fix a nightmarish transmission/gear shift problem I've been living with for more than a year -- that two transmission shops told me was going to cost from $300 to $800. Turns out replacing a brake switch on the old Coug' can also (not always) magically fix the locked-in-park mess. I would never have known and never saw that in the online forums I checked out. And neither of the transmission places I called over the last year suggested the fix might be that simple. Fountain's COULD have pitched charging more. But they didn't. Instead, when I showed up tonight to pay for the brake light fix -- already a reasonable charge -- Shannon explained that... well... by the way... you can now shift out of park without a screwdriver and pliers. I can't afford much more than just getting by. But this was a repair I could afford -- with the gear shift bonus thrown in as a marvelous surprise. And I swear the Coug' managed a happy old growl on the way home. read more
