Team Photo | Complete Automotive Repair Specialists, LLC

Complete Automotive Repair Specialists was founded back in January of 1991 by owner and operator, John Natale. John had extensive automotive experience before this dating back to 1976, and first began an interest in autos at the age of 13. He grew up in a family that had many wild and classic cars that drove John to appreciate the designs and technical aspects of automobiles. This lead to a passion to repair and modify them as he grew older. 

John received an associates degree as an Automotive Technician at the age of 22, and quickly became an ASE Master certified technician. He worked at automotive dealerships for 3-4 years to further his experience before running a small 1 man shop for 5 years. John also worked as an office manager for a year to gain management education, which was helpful when it came to operating his own shop. 

John went on to open up Complete Automotive Repair Specialists in 1991. Since the start of our independently owned repair shop, we have made it our mission to provide our community with honest and trustworthy advice and service. We strive to teach and educate our customers on the best ways to maintain their vehicle, and are proud to be here to assist when you need auto care that is high quality yet reasonably priced.
