What We Do
We keep it simple: find the actual problem, tell you what it needs, and charge a fair price. No mystery line items, no work you did not agree to.
Air conditioning that quit on you? Recharge, leak diagnosis, and full A/C repair done in-house, the work most general shops send out and the dealership marks way up. Customers come to us for this on purpose.
From odd noises to the repair you have been putting off, we sort cars and trucks out the honest way and tell you what actually needs doing.
Check-engine light on? We read the codes, find the real cause, and explain it in plain language before we touch a thing.
Pads, rotors, and that grind you keep hearing. We inspect what is urgent versus what can wait, and never pad the bill.
Oil changes and the regular upkeep that keeps a vehicle out of the shop. Quick turnaround, fair price, no upsell.
Quoted a scary number somewhere else? Bring it by for a straight answer. We will tell you if it is real or if you are being oversold.
The Shop
What you can count on
We are Automotive Clinic, a family-owned repair shop right here in Missoula at 800 S Catlin Street. We are not a dealership and we are not a chain, we are the kind of place you can actually talk to about your car.
Our whole approach is simple: be honest and be fair. We figure out what your vehicle really needs, we explain it in plain language, and we quote a price you can trust before we pick up a wrench. If something can wait, we will tell you. If you are being oversold somewhere else, we will tell you that too.
A lot of folks find us for our A/C and refrigerant work, the job most shops send out, and they stick with us for everything else once they see how we do business. That is the kind of shop we set out to be, and it is why so many of our customers send their friends and family our way.
