Economy Auto in Leesburg - on 441 across the street from the Walmart. Very good family run business. We've used them for 5 years. Say hi to Frankie!

I would say alot depends upon the make and type of auto you are trying to service,...big difference in who can service a Chevy or ford to a mercedes or BWM.

I use greg smith automotive in beleview. Go over the bridge and its on your left going in to town. He is fair and honest and he does good work and he wont rip you off. Need to call ahead for an appointment. He is actually right at the base of the bridge on 441 as you come in to town. Hang a left at bottom of bridge.

We've used Vaughn a couple of times. Very good and great prices.

Sumter Tire on 301 in Wildwood is the best establishment I have ever had the pleasure to utilize. They have about 8 bays and all their employees are personable and friendly. They all know what they are doing and the supervisors and owner are very knowledgable. They fixed a problem with my Toyota that nobody in the Boston, MA area could fix and they did it with a used part off of a junk car in their back yard.

So if you have a pesky problem that no one seems to ever get a handle on, try Sumter Tire. You will not be disappointed!
