Honest answers first: the shop Merced drivers say they trust
Our story
Smiley's Automotive Center is a car repair and maintenance shop on W 16th Street in Merced, open Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Drivers come to us for everything from a nail in a tire to brakes, tune-ups, and spark plugs, and they come back because of how we treat them.
Our customers say it best: they trust us to take care of them. When an inspection shows nothing needs fixing, we say so: more than one driver has left our shop without paying a dime because the honest answer was that no repair was needed. That's the standard we hold ourselves to on every car that rolls in.
What customers say
“They treat me like family. Great service. Love Smiley’s. I trust them to take care of me.”
“We took our Toyota Camry in today, with a nail in the tire. Cody helped us repaired the tire got us back on the road. Truly appreciate how their customer service was "spot on", could not have been better.”
“They did not charge me for their service either. I appreciate very much for their honesty, integrity, and not rid me off like some other shops in town. Smiley Auto Repair, you have my trust. You are the best in town.”
