Had a couple issues with my car stopping and different shops saying nothing was wrong. Chris test drove and helped figure out the problem and fix it within a couple hours! He’s fantastic and I recommend him to all!

My alternator went in my Volvo and after a few calls around, I found that not many local mechanics were willing to work on Volvos. I was referred to Chris by one of those mechanics. Chris was happy to help and did an awesome job. I’m glad to have someone to call for any future car repair needs! Great communication and fair prices. Really appreciate his help!

Heartline Automotive is the best. If I could give them a 6 out of 5 I would. I have a 2005 BMW 645 CI. I have owned the car since 2007. It has only 60K miles and I have been afraid of driving it for years because it’s been so unreliable. I have had a check engine light on for 8 yrs with the exception of the first 50 miles after a reset. I have been to the BMW dealership twice in Rochester, NY and once in Sarasota. I also had it to a foreign car mechanic yearly for inspection in NY. I have been told “it’s a 2005 don’t worry about it”, “these cars misfire, it’s normal “, “it’s the thermostat and water pump (which was replaced)”.I said I was going to sell it many times but held out hope it could be fixed.One day at Heartline and it drives like it’s new! I was worried about writing this thinking it was going to happen again. It hasn’t. The car has run perfectly for 350 miles and I’m sure it will continue. Thank you!! I’ll never go back to the dealership.Services: Auto engine diagnostic

My parents took their car there in February 2021. They still don't have the car back 22 MONTHS later. Continuous calls, drive-bys with no response. When you do get a response it is claiming it will be done with no response. I decided to take over when my father had a heart attack and of course no one is ever at the building, so how do they get anything done. When you call you can't leave a message because the voicemail is full. When you do get McKenzie the receptionist she says there's been a bump in the road hopefully by next week it will be done. TIME TO REPORT THE CAR STOLEN!!!! Chris you better get you SH*T together. WORST BUSINESS PROTOCOL EVER! I would have preferred him to say I'm sorry I'm swamped and can't get to it and we would have paid BMW to work on this older model.

Heart Line Automotive is one of the best places in Bradenton to take your car too. The staff are incredible people, with competitive prices that beat other auto shops in the area. Chris will help you get your car back on the road or even just some maintenance
