Swansons Auto Repair

Swansons fixed my car fast and for 1/3rd of the price I was quoted at the dealership. They were knowledgeable, diagnosed, and ordered necessary parts promptly and had me rolling down the road in no time. Additionally when reassembling my engine they came across a broken mount and fixed this as well. Initially I thought the mount was broken during reassembly and when I expressed my concern Ron promptly reached out and explained the situation that the mount was broken already. They could have left this broken and I would have been none the wiser, I appreciate very much Ron and his team for going above and beyond to ensure my vehicle was in tip top shape to transport me and my family. Thank you Swansons and I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

Had a great experience. Fast service. Great price. Got all 4 new tires. Done quickly and correctly. Will be returning next time for sure 👍

Swanson’s repaired the ac in my Volvo for half the price of the dealer.
After five weeks, it failed again.
They diagnosed the problem, admitted they were responsible, repaired the system at no charge.
Such rare integrity in the auto repair business.
Excellent service.

Swanson’s Auto repair is the best and most efficient mechanic in town! Me and my family have been going to Ron for YEARS and the quality of work always speaks for itself. Ron and his staff have worked on several of my cars and have always gotten me in and out within a timely manner, even in emergencies! He is very honest and gives great car advice. The prices are also hard to beat. I highly recommend.

Ron was easy to work with, efficient and very knowledgeable. We will definitely continue to use him for our fleet repairs!

I have been going to Ron for years. Excellent service, he also works on all of my children’s vehicles. Fair prices, quick service, and never overcharges. He is the best mechanic in Sarasota County and I recommend him to all of my family & friends.

Just want to share the good experience I had at Swansons…
Casey was very pleasant and gave me several possible approaches to solving an AC issue with my car. Although I had no work done as it was mutually agreed upon that it would not be cost effective due to the age and mileage of the vehicle, it was his honesty and professional manner that makes me think that the work done at this shop would be likewise.

Had a dead starter. I was 95% sure of the issue when I brought it in. They fixed the issue and had the car up and running beautifully in a day.

They didn't try to upsell me on a bunch of stuff I wasn't interested in or try to convince me that there were other issues I needed addressed on top (unlike another auto shop in the area.... you know the "brothers" I'm sure.).

Price was very fair and transparent. He didn't gouge on the price of parts, and the bill was clean and straight forward.

Ron is an honest guy from my encounter and there were no cringy sales tactics which sometimes make people like me dread having to deal with the auto shop. Kind of guy you'd sit down and have a beer with. Very satisfied.... and I might have some more work coming their way sooner than later.

He has a life long customer in me now for auto repairs. Highly recommend.

I would highly recommend Swansons Auto Repair. We broke down and needed to replace our motor during our visit to North Port, FL. A used motor was ordered and Ron quickly and safely got us back on the road. We are grateful that we didn’t having any issues with our used motor during our 24 hour drive back to Minnesota thanks to Ron. You won’t be disappointed.

Best car shop in North Port. My whole family has Ron work on our cars & the service is always quick & efficient. He is always honest with his work & never overcharges us!

Been hoping to find a mechanic I could trust. Swanson’s was great no nonsense water pump was changed in a timely manner at a reasonable price. Thank you Swanson’s auto repair.

A true and honest repair shop. Called Friday afternoon and asked if we could have our car towed and dropped off. Not a problem was told. Monday morning they called us and told us it was the starter. 2 hours later called and was done. Definitely recommend any work you need to have done. Very professional and great service.

Scott was extremely nice and professional and made me feel prioritized. I was ripped off by two mechanics prior for a simple fix on my windshield wipers and this shop finally took care of me easily in one day. I’ll only be coming here from now on.

I’ve been going to Swanson’s for years. Ron is honest, personable, knowledgeable, and reliable. I trust his work and judgment. I’ve had services done by him and haven’t had any issues since then. He just recently worked on my cat due to pothole damage. He took my car same day, called me back with service detail, fee, and duration of service. I picked up my car a day earlier than expected. Was very pleased and always happy with the work done.

Ron's cool with a smooth operation. Would highly recommend Swanson's Auto. 5-Star.

Been doing business with this outfit for a number of years now. I have found them to be very reliable and I don't have to worry about getting ripped off, as the proprietor is as honest as the day is long (which is a relief when you're looking for a shop.) - Zero complaints 😊

I must say I’m disappointed, AT ANY NEGATIVE REVIEWS!!! I called Thursday February 3, 2022 to ask if they worked on mini coopers and that it was probably an ignition coil since I had one go out on me before. Ron said to bring it by and they’ll take a look; I said I’d be there Friday since I happened to be off.
Had it there just after 9 and left it. Within a couple hours he called to confirm it was a coil and I asked him to get it and take care of it. He called to let me know the part was on its way and briefly discussed the cost of the fix, which was very reasonable. Within a couple hours he called to let me know it’s finished!!!
They were great, he was great!!! Timely, considerate, very reasonable, and even convenient! To one who suggested he had family or friends write his reviews,
I think that couldn’t be further from the truth!
I showed up there out of the blue as neither friend or family but must say I feel I left as a friend as he did a fantastic job and I will continue to go to him, as well as recommend him to anyone in need of mechanical work. Thank you very much Ron!!👍👍👍

Ron who is the owner always takes care of us and we have been using him for a very long time. You can't beat his pricing and how fast his turnaround time is along with the quality of work. I would never use anyone else and he is the only mechanic I trust

So happy my friend recommended Swansons! We have had 2 of ours cars worked on recently, and their both up and running great now. They do amazing work, very thorough, and reasonably priced. We will absolutely be going to Swansons from now on. :)

Ron is a good and honest mechanic, which is difficult to find these days. He got my vehicle in quickly and took the time to properly rule out what I thought was an issue, saving me a ton in unnecessary repairs. I am not local, but if I'm ever in need of services while I'm in town visiting family, I'll be sure to bring my vehicle in and recommend it to anyone else.
