Auto Parts in Marco Island, FL

“I had a great experience with Executive Auto Repair working with Justin and Shawn.

I was originally referred by a friend, and from the start they were professional and upfront about the scope of work on my F-250. This wasn’t a quick repair—it was a complex oil leak issue that ultimately required pulling the engine to properly address it. Once the engine was out, they also identified a cracked exhaust manifold that would have continued to cause problems if left unaddressed, so that was replaced as well. I appreciated that they took the extra step to catch and fix something that wasn’t obvious at the beginning.

Since they were already that deep into the repair, they recommended replacing the glow plugs. It made sense to take care of it then rather than risk paying for the same labor again later. That kind of forward-thinking approach stood out—they’re clearly thinking long-term for their customers, not just about the immediate job.

I’ve been to other shops where, because of the complexity of diesel engines, they won’t even take on this kind of work. That wasn’t the case here. Justin and Shawn were confident and clearly experienced with diesel diagnostics and major repairs, which gave me confidence throughout the process.

While they’re busy, they still made an effort to keep me in the loop. I’d occasionally receive text message updates about the progress of my truck repair, which helped me stay informed and showed they hadn’t forgotten about my vehicle. When I stopped in, they took the time to explain what they were seeing and walk me through the challenges involved.

Diesel diagnosis can be tricky, and what seems obvious at first glance isn’t always the root cause. I respected that they approached it methodically instead of just throwing parts at the problem. They were honest about what they knew, what needed to be verified, and what might require additional attention.

When I picked up the truck, they went over everything in detail. They didn’t overpromise—they gave realistic expectations, which I value more than guarantees that don’t hold up. That level of honesty builds trust.

The cost reflected the amount of labor and complexity involved. Anyone familiar with diesel work knows repairs like this can add up quickly, especially when engine removal and additional components like an exhaust manifold and glow plugs are involved. I felt the pricing was in line with the work performed.

What stood out most was that they didn’t take shortcuts. They focused on fixing the issue properly rather than patching it temporarily.

Overall, I’d describe them as smart, proactive professionals who take pride in their work. They’re not a quick in-and-out shop—they’re focused on doing things the right way. Shops like this are a hidden gem—hard to find, but worth holding onto once you do.”

“Just finished having my car serviced at Gerber. The work was done quickly and efficiently and the technician was skilled and efficient. Most of all, the people there are personable, professional and so welcoming. Manager Kevin was outstanding in all respects as was the Office Manager Kim and the rest of the staff was supportive and friendly as well. Rest assured that any customer will receive excellent and, most importantly, honest and professional service and your vehicle will be just like new when the work is complete.”
