First time at Gulf Breeze Automotive and I’m beyond impressed. I went in convinced I needed new brakes, but they took a look and told me everything was fine — no work needed. They were honest, efficient, and didn’t charge me anything. They absolutely could have upsold me, but they chose integrity instead. That earns my trust completely. I’ll be back and will recommend them to everyone!

I am a shade tree mechanic but the older I get the less I know about these newer vehicles. I was starting to get some 'tapping' noise under a cold start load and quickly realized this was outside my scope of work. I stopped by and asked for a diagnosis. Mr. Tim said he would give me call as soon as the mechanic could make his evaluation. The call came in with a Variable Valve Timing sprocket going bad. For reading expediency, they had to change out all of the parts from the camshaft gears down to the water pump. Mr. Tim kept me well informed about where we were in the process. The thing that I really appreciate is the attention to detail the mechanic took to ensure the parts that he was putting in were functional! These guys are not the parts manufacturer, they are the installer. So when Mr. Tim called and said that the Variable Timing Gear on the Camshaft they received was bad I was shocked but very appreciative that they had taken the time to identify that and order a new one. Then the 2nd Cam Shaft Gear came in. Again, Mr. Tim called and said that this solid metal gear appeared to have been dropped and some of the teeth were 'dinged' to the point that they did not feel comfortable installing it. Long story short, even though these bad parts that were delivered caused a delay in repairing my car, I greatly appreciated them being consciencence enough about their work to not do a so-so repair that isn't perfect! I find it hard these days to find technicians that care about their quality of work as much as I care about a job well done! I would highly recommend Gulf Breeze Automotive for your vehicles needs. To everyone at Gulf Breeze Automotive, thank you very much for a Job Well Done!!

Tim was welcoming and knowledge. He answered all of my questions. I had the oil changed and had the transmission serviced. The work was done within the time promised. The price was fair.
