I just got new tires on a work vehicle and I needed an alignment I called proctor's, They said they could do it within the hour so considering all that was said from some of the other companies around I went to proctor's and they literally had me aligned done right in less than an hour their price was fair it was under the other quotes and I didn't have time to waste all day They did a great job. read more

I had a front headlight that was going out constantly. I was able to get a last minute appointment and they found a wire had burnt. It did not take long for them to fix everything. I am grateful and relieved. I will be back if I ever need anything again. read more

I was traveling through Florida on the way to a trade show. Broke down on I75 called Proctors and they went out of their way to get me fixed up. Professional, respectful and reasonable cost for repairs. Thank you! read more

These people replaced the radiator on my daughters car after stating they checked to make sure the engine was okay. $600 later she drove off the lot and the engine began overheating, turned around & immediately took it right back. The mechanic said he didn't do a chemical test to make sure the engine was alright (to begin with,) and the head gasket was blown!! My daughter is a single mother with 3 children, and they didn't offer to make things right or fix the damages! FIND YOURSELF A REPUTABLE MECHANIC! read more

Had my wheel bearings changed. I came and picked it up and the sound got worse. My engine light now came on. Another mechanic said they did it wrong and also damaged a tire sensor. Waste of money and made my car worse. read more

After having issues with my battery, I went to Napa as that is where the previous one was purchased. Once receiving a new battery for free, as it was covered under warranty, I was told to come here and they would put the battery in for me. When confirming with Proctor's, the man on the phone was very nice. However, when I parked my car, my car died. When the man came to greet me, he was very disrespectful and had an attitude, asking how I expected him to do anything if my car was shut off. When all was said and done, he came out to tell me it was my alternator instead and collected the $30 to install the battery and sent me on my way. He told me I could drive home but needed it to be towed to VW. My car was taken to VW and after their diagnostic testing, they found that it was NOT my alternator but a bad battery. Granted the mechanic was given the battery, I'm not sure why it wouldn't have been tested before placing it in my car; and why was I given a diagnosis that wasn't even remotely correct?? Overall, I am very displeased with service and do not recommend. read more

This place was recommended to me by my dad who has used them a few times. They were very honest, quick with the repairs I needed on my car, and very reasonable with their prices. Thank you for not trying to take advantage of your customers. read more

Out of Towner from South Carolina - My truck sprung a leak on the way to Florida to see my grandmother for Christmas. I decided to go to Proctor because of their decent reviews. When I went to pick up my truck, it was parked on the grass & I noticed they had not cleaned the excess oil from the oil pan. I was told that it's against the law to spray off used oil onto the ground. I didn't understand why they didn't clean it off while it was in the shop, but I didn't question it, I was just glad to have my truck back. I know now why it wasn't cleaned. It wasn't cleaned because it was still leaking! It was leaking a lot worse then when I brought it in. I think that's why they had it parked on the grass so it wouldn't be so obvious that it was still leaking. They knew I was from out of town and I think they were hoping I was going to head back to SC after I picked it up. It's sad to think a business knew that the truck was not fixed and was going to let me take it anyways. Shame on them!!! I took it back a 2nd time and they said they fixed it. I drove it for 2 days and the truck didn't leak, but during this time, the distributor cap went bad, so I decided to give Proctor another chance since they were apologetic about not fixing it the 1st time and they seemed to have fixed it the 2nd time around. But while they had my truck in their possession, the owner received a letter from the BBB that I filed a complaint when they didn't fix my truck the first time. The owner told me he wouldn't release my truck until I showed proof that the complaint was removed. I was upset, but I showed him proof. I should of called the police, but I just wanted by truck back and I had to get back to work in SC. They fixed the distributor cap, but it was leaking oil again! I can't help to think they purposely caused it to leak again since the owner was pissed about the complaint. I'm out $725 for an oil leak that never got fixed, the owner threatened me, and I believe they sabotaged my truck! read more

Brought my vehicle in for alignment and tire installment. One of my tires blew out a week later and when trying to put on spare I found cross threaded lug nut bolt. Made it so lug nut would not unscrew. Actually had to snap off to get nut off. Was on side of interstate and was dangerous situation. When I got home I checked all my tires and found another tire that had a snapped off lug nut bolt. They never told me that they broke it and let me leave with only 4 bolts. I would have paid to repair it rather than be left with a dangerous tire. Being repaired else where now. Can not recommend this business. read more

Great customer service. I had a really small job. Not much room for profit but they still helped me out with it when they could have told me they were too busy like another mechanic I called. I really appreciate the help! read more

I've come here a couple of times and it all started because my battery died and I needed to find somebody that dealt with interstate batteries since I wanted a special size I called Jeff ; here he was nice enough to come pick me up jump my truck and then bring my vehicle back to the shop and even drop me off at a doctors appointment nearby. He then put the new battery in after it arrived disposed of my old one and then picked me up in my awesome services. read more

Fantastic service, fair price, incredibly honest. I used to be a mechanic. So I know when a shop is trying to up-sell or con me. I went to Proctor's Precision Automotive since the half-shaft axle in my 1992 Honda had a split accordion cover, and was making that dreaded click-click-click when I made turns. I have only been in town a year, and the neighbor recommended Proctor's. Keith quoted me a fair price for the parts-- I had already checked on line. The labor was reasonable as well, certainly less than the hassle of me trying to do it myself in the garage. I said I felt it was best to do both axles, since I knew for a fact one was bad. Keith did not push me, but said he agreed that it was best to replace both. Then I explain I am new in town, and don't have a smart phone for Uber, and is there a way I can get a ride? Keith says "Sure I can ride you home and pick you up when it is done." Wow. Best yet, he scheduled me in a day later. After he quoted the price, I waited for him to try and sell ball joints and wheel alignment, but nothing. So I asked, "Should I get an alignment?" Kieth explained that my particular car would not need it, the axle replacement does not affect alignment. But I was so impressed that I figured I should have it checked anyway, the car was pretty old. Next day, I drop the car off at 9:00, he rides me home, he calls at noon, and says he can come pick me up. He used my car to pick me up, which I really liked, since he was doing a test drive as well as picking me up. It was great to be turning and not hear that click-click-click. Keith informs me it was good that I did both sides, the other axle had a split accordion seal as well. So we get back to the shop, he gives me the bill, and I write a check. I jump in my nice quiet car, and glanced at the receipt as I was backing out. Wait a minute, he didn't charge me for the alignment. So I go back in, and tell him he forgot to charge me for the alignment. Kieth says-- "Well it didn't need any adjustment, so I didn't charge you." Holy cow, nobody every treated me like this in California. It took time to pull it on the rack and check. Needless to say, I am a life-long Proctor's Precision Automotive customer. It was only when I got home, and I noticed Keith's last name is on the side of the building-- maybe that explains why he is so righteous and honest. Its great to be settling in at my Florida home, knowing I have a place to do any automotive work I need. read more

Great service along with something which is normally lacking, HONESTY! Kieth told me exactly what needed to be done and what did not be done. He provided fast and effective service at a cost considerably less than several other places which provided quotes. I have done my own brake work in the past, so I knew what should be done and that was exactly what he quoted for me. Since I only have one car Kieth gave me a ride home, called and picked me up to return to the shop when the work was done! read more
