Car Clinic in
Somerset (KY)

They do a great job get it done right and fast

They were very helpful and made the headlight and brake light replacement within minutes of checking with them.

Professional mechanic work at a reasonable price. Great customer service. These guys will get all my mechanic work.

I normally don’t leave reviews (especially negative ones), but my experience with The Car Clinic was frustrating enough that I feel people should know what to expect. I brought my truck in for a coolant leak and popping sound coming from the front. They quoted me over $1,300 for repairs (wheel bearing + coolant housing). I later checked the part prices myself, and they were charging at least $300 more than any part listed online or in store — in some cases almost double what the same OEM or aftermarket parts actually cost online. They also quoted me nearly $1,200 for a set of tires that every other shop in town had priced at $600–$650 installed. That’s a markup of around $690, which was a blatant overcharging. The biggest issue, though, is that they didn’t actually resolve the coolant leak or the popping sound. They assured me it was fixed, but days later I was still losing coolant. When I brought it back, they told me the bleeder screw was broken — something only they had touched during the original repair — and then quoted me another $392 to fix it. At that point, I had already spent well over a thousand dollars there and was left with the same coolant issue and popping sounds I started with. Between the inflated part costs, the tire quote that was nearly double anyone else in town, and the attempt to charge me again for an issue they likely caused, I can’t recommend this shop. I left feeling like I spent a lot of money for work that wasn’t done right and with very little trust in their honesty or skillset. If you’re considering bringing your car here, I’d strongly recommend you get a second opinion and compare quotes with other shops before agreeing to any repairs.

Great mechanics that explains everything that needs to be done and what work then completed. Got my car in and out and back on the road very timely and cost effective. Best place in town to get your vehicle worked on. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

This business is by far the best hands down! Did I mention veteran owned and operated? Yes it is, my experience from beginning to finish was excellent. They do have a small waiting area should you want to wait for your vehicle to be serviced, reading material should you want to read or thumb through. Me, I talked the entire time I was there lol. The young men that run it are super nice and respectful! Cannot get that anywhere else or much less a return phone call from dealerships. This is definitely my place bow for any work to be done on my vehicles. I intend to spread the word. Give them a call, they are very knowledgeable and they have reasonable prices. I will be a return customer. Thanks for changing my serpentine belt. Thanks Car Clinic

Very friendly, took the wife's car in for an all-around brake job. They let me know why we were having the issue we were having. Dropped it off and picked it up the next morning. No more issues

Great experience. I needed new pads and rotors, they got it in and out in a day. Service was great. Tech was very friendly. Two thumbs up!! 👍👍

i have had two great experiences with Car Clinic! Their staff is friendly, and their shop is well experienced. i will be bringing all my future oil changes, or any car problems to this place! 100% recommend!

They have amazing customer service and was very helpful. I dropped my car off too get a thermostat put in with them and that had it done next day. I would recommend any and every one to come here

They told me they wanted to charge me 3 to 4 hundred dollars to fix my ignition switch, on top of a 100 dollar diagnostic fee, I called another place called Wayne's auto in Somerset ky and they told me they'd do it for 100 bucks. And only a 50 diagnostic fee.

I bought a new to me (but very old to someone else) Mini a few years back. The car itself couldn't be better but finding mechanics to work on it when it has had issues has been a nightmare. From being outright told by multiple euro shops they'll work on anything except Mini Coopers, to having issues misdiagnosed and unneeded fixes. Car Clinic was a life saver when I brought it in with some starter troubles. They were very patient, professional all around, and had it in and out in a couple of days. I'm so relieved to know such a quality shop for my finicky little car is just a drive down the road. Can't recommend them enough!

I called in to make an appointment and the mechanic said that he can look at my car the next morning, but to go ahead and drop it off right away if I wanted to. So I went there and dropped off my car and this was at about 10 AM. I had errands to do and by 2 PM I got a text from them with a quote and diagnosis of what was wrong with my car. At around 4:30 PM they called me and told me that my car was ready to be picked up. Talk about fast service.. Wow. I am very impressed with their customer service plus the fact that they repaired my car way sooner than I expected. Plus they are VERY knowledgeable regarding car repairs and maintenance. I would rate this place more than five out of five stars if I could. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOP for your car needs. You could say they got a customer for life right here.

Stopped by for some air in my tire. The tech stopped right away to see what I needed and helped me. Very nice customer service!! If I need anything else for my vehicle, this is the place I will be sure to stop by first.

Amazing customer service knows what they doing and very honest people They provide me with a towing service (ALL AMERICAN TOWING) amazing costumer service as well very understanding would give this towing company a 10/10 !! Well recommended !! This isn’t a fake review like you see on others people pages this is a real review!! Coming from a real person !! Overall 10/10 with towing and the auto repair shop !!

I am proud to say that Robert is a very well-educated mechanic and very honest he did work for me on my Denali and actually saved me quite a bit of money for the work he did for me I would absolutely refer him to anyone.

I had a slow leak on one of my tires. I found them online. Very prompt, professional and courteous. I would definitely come back to them for my automotive needs.

Would recommend this auto shop to anyone that's looking for someone that's upfront and honest. The work that they do is top notch, there's nothing that is hidden from the customer and they explain everything from start to finish. The work is absolutely amazing and I will never take my vehicle's anywhere else but here.

I found this place about a month ago and I am so glad I did. I have found there are not many places a woman can go for car repair without being cheated. Car Clinic is one place you can go and know you will find honesty and great service! I highly recommend Car Clinic as the place to go when you need a mechanic! You will be glad you did!

I had my front and back rotors/brakes replaced, in one day!! Extremely friendly, car drives like a dream now. They even replaced my brake bulbs free because I didn't know they were out! BEST place in Pulaski County, wont go anywhere else. Thank you so much Car Clinic!

Robert is a great mechanic! He was very clear and transparent about the work he does and even quoting me a price before the work even got started. I dropped off my truck to get some work done and he was able to get me in and out the same day. I will definitely be coming back to get more work done on my vehicles.

Saw me right after I called after going a few places in town. Went in for a transfer case seal and an inspection and he found that my wheel bearing was also going out which other places had missed. Checked it when I got home and he was 100% correct. It's a little shop but I'm probably going here from now on! Thank you for your service as well!

My Mercedes started misfiring one evening so the next morning I was on the phone calling every mechanic around to see if they could get me in quickly. I called five before I had gotten to the number for Car Clinic. All five told me it would be at least a week before they could get me in. I work two jobs so I didn’t have a week to be without my vehicle. When I called Car Clinic, Robert told me I could bring it in that evening. I picked my car back up the very next day running like new again. Definitely know who my go to mechanic will be from now on!

Had issue with my Kia forte accelerating. Mechanic found out my catalytic converter was plugged and did a fantastic job and solved my problem quickly! Car has been doing great so far, they diagnosed and repaired it in the same day. Awesome service and very honest highly recommend! 👍

I can speak on and about two of my vehicles being taken care of here. Both times everything was fixed and repaired as it needed to be. Robert is a great mechanic. Listens to concerns ,has good rates and pricing. Took no time for the parts to be delivered. Which means it was fixed quickly. I highly recommend Car Clinic . If your vehicle is in need of repairs and a trustworthy mechanic bring it here to Robert. You won't be disappointed

I called today with an engine light problem.I didn’t have much time and no other car so I couldn’t leave to be done later. Robert was amazing he diagnosed the problem, called to have the part delivered and had us back on the road in a couple of hours. Robert was very professional and caring. I’ll never use anyone else. Covers the work he does as well as being a nice guy. Highly recommend.

We had such a great experience at Car Clinic. He came in on a Saturday to fix my brakes and changed my oil while he was at it. He was fast and efficient! I will definitely go back.
